The real plus from reading this article is that I learned a new word: heteroskedasticity. Next week maybe I’ll try to work it into a conversation...
Liberal friend: Paco, you old moss back, surely you can see that the socio-economic trend in our society leads inexorably to socialism?
Me: Oh, I dunno, my dear old Bolshevik, if you look at the data subpopulations, that so-called trend of yours looks a bit heteroskedasticious, wouldn’t you say?
Liberal friend: Er…Hey, try one of these macaroons. Positively delicious!
Me: M’y-e-s. Very good, very good,indeed.
