#statstab #490 Effect size for difference between variances / Levene's test

Thoughts: Always found it odd that we ignore heterogeneity for inference. We treat it like a "error".

Thoughts: If you know your treatment condition will have larger variance you can optimise your sample size.

Good Morning, all,

two American women I admire for their courage...

The problem with Joe #Biden was not that he was old, it was that he was and is clearly suffering from #dementia. Bernie Sanders is older than Biden, and clearly still has most of his marbles and is still capable of functioning as Senator, though I would have preferred he had retired. #Vermont has a pipeline problem in its political talent. #Sanders and #Welch need to make room for the next generation.

This is not about #Trump, who is also clearly suffering from dementia. #VTpol #USpol

Just called my #Vermont #Congresscritters, thanking #Welch and #Sanders for their statements against the bombing of #Iran, thanking #Balint for her statement on the #SCOTUS anti-trans ruling and cosponsoring the war resolutions act, and asking them all to push for #impeachment. Felt good to do. Took 5 minutes. Easy peasy.

A friend who doesn't like phones told me yesterday that she calls in the evenings and leaves messages. Still gets tallied & she doesn't have to talk to anyone.
