Just updated the arXiv version of our upcoming paper 🚀 We show how to build three-way tests (accept, reject, or stay undecided) using confidence/credible regions. They’re logically coherent and control type I & II errors—even when testing multiple hypotheses. No significance corrections needed!

A friend of mine, I recently found out, does really fantastic memes about economics and econometrics. The initial ones are in Russian, but I convinced her to translate them into english so I could share them with a broader audience, I think many of you will appreciate them!

This is a good article, but this remains the most important point. Elon is not challenging the decision in court, he is simply acting like he's above the law and ignoring the sovereign government of Brazil. He's not hiring legal counsel, he's posting memes in English about Xandão.

Carlos Affonso Souza, a Brazilian internet-law professor, called the order “the most extreme judicial decision out of a Brazilian court in 30 years of internet law.” Yet he added that Brazil had to take some action after Mr. Musk so publicly and explicitly flouted multiple court orders.

“It’s not up to a company to decide if a judicial decision is adequate or not,” Mr. Souza said. “The company must file a complaint in a lawsuit, not just decide to not comply.”
