somehow i didn't even notice how my #rimworld colonists are slowly turning into the TOS bridge crew, we already got a jim, a doc and a scotty
Folks, @mattbors and I will be in Vancouver, B.C., Nov. 9–11 to sign That One Matt Bors Comics books + prints in a warehouse. We’ve tried to find a bookstore or comics store that would host us or even let us rent the venue to do a talk & have Matt sign stuff. No luck! Ideas?
@ben Or that a certain amount of abstraction is pretty much the norm in video games?
@Vordus this is a game where sushi is made out of wheat
Normalize asking anybody who calls themself an alpha if that's a furry thing
@evan yeah I usually make myself choose an answer, but in this case I don't think I know enough. Consensus is great in my context as a (sometimes practicing) Quaker, with a culture built around managing consensus. But I know I live in a weird bubble and most people have never encountered a consensus process in real life, and maybe have never heard of consensus decision-making. (Also consensus doesn't always mean unanimity.)
@ben Have you considered that this is a fantasy game that doesn't have to have grounding in the realities of modern food production?

@mayorbeetles they flat out told us that kissing gives a part of yourself away that you'll never get back.
abstinence only is abuse.

Sometimes I think about being pulled aside as a kid for criticizing abstinence only/purity culture in schools and being told “look, we’re just trying to prevent kids from having sex.” I guess they thought letting me on the “secret” would get me on their side, but all it taught me is that mfers will literally scream until their face is red and bring themselves to tears over some shit they don’t actually care about in order to manipulate you.
& Where was all this effort to stop pedophilia in Floyd County schools? Or is making kids too ashamed to talk about sex part of the cover up 🤔
@Vordus ok so it is saltwater fish then because I assume the parasites can't survive in saltwater because otherwise they'd spread to there

@ouguoc Sure, but that's not really the point of this. The question is: what other than a sample interval should be added here to express the differences in population sizes? I don't think this is particularly wrong. For as long as the audience does not change (eg: it's dragged into a completely different bubble) it's unlikely that the numbers will move much.
@mitsuhiko I think most scientists would tell you that's assuming the premises. 😊 The whole point of a confidence interval is it's specifically the end-result of having done a bunch of work to validate the randomness of the sample.
If what you want is some way to express to your reader "this is a small sample", I think your original graph's labels are sufficient for conveying that; think the rest of the viz was pretty excellent.
have you noticed how "innovation" became the buzzword of tech ghouls, not "invention"?
