Something similar? I read a picture wrong going of a fact I've heard before.

I was just lazy I give you that. I did not double check but after someone pointed the mistake out I gave better numbers.

So how is that similar to what happened before? My main point wasn't that I distrust the numbers they are posting but the way it is not backed up with good explanations and/or potential causes.

Reading back this comment does come off as overly defensive but I am genuinely confused what I did that is similar and how I should've behaved better in the face of my error.

Yes, I did not look too closely into the statistic in the picture but see my other comment where I provided a more relevant statistic.

That is actually something I really dislike. Lossless and lossy formats should be immediately distinguishable.

That was such a culture shock when I went to the us for the first time.

In Germany and many places in Europe do not think of burgers as sandwiches. I was so confused when I ordered a sandwich and got something like a burger.

I expected something like this. My confusion must've been quite the sight, the waitress even seemed concerned. Tasted great though.

Jep, like I said did not look too closely into it. Anyway, the point is that taking statistics in a vacuum can lead to strange conclusions.

Btw the gist I was going for, that statistically black men make up a disproportionate chunk of the homicide perpetrators in the US is a fact.

Still misleading on its own as it does not give insight into the cause of the discrepancy. Racists use this all the time to justify bigotry.

Yeah, people think black men are dangerous because of racism. 🙄

That's what you sound like, smh.

Disclaimer: I've not vetted the statistic I posted but seen similar numbers before.

Edit: As has been rightly pointed out the above statistic does not say what I thought it did. A better version would be:

It must feel amazing having someone draw something on your back.

Numpy can use BLAS packages that are partly written in Fortran

Nope. Almost every day I learn something new.

Why are you so sure that people said it as a joke at first?

I think they are just baking a cake. Delicious moist cake.

Das ganze hat wirklich mir jeglichen Spaß an Sport genommen. Erst viel später habe ich Gewichtheben für mich entdeckt.

Da kann ich mir soviel Zeit lassen wie ich will zwischen Sätzen und mein eigenes Tempo wählen. Ich muss nicht schnell sein und habe keine Angst durch Unfähigkeit andere zu benachteiligen wie im Teamsport.

Ich glaube wirklich dass es für jeden einen passenden Sport gibt. Es ist nur für manche eine riesige Qual herauszufinden welche. "Probier einfach welche aus" hört sich toll an, aber bracht auch extreme geistige und teilweise körperliche Ausdauer.
