So are you trying tell me that it's just maths, not opinion by any chance?

FWIW i am not stating it's a logical absurdity that 3% of the voters changed alliegance; i am stating that it's absurd to make that claim based simply on the bare stats available.

...the percentage change in voting across nationalist/unionist lines was accounted for by people changing allegiances, that this was just maths. you *cannot* make this conclusion, it's that simple. the sheer number of variables (and anonymity of the process) make drawing this conclusion a...

yeah it has octacles

Where I work any "0" birthdays,weddings and other stuff are celebrated with a suggested but not compulsory whiparound and a huge lunch where everyone brings in something. The board chips in too for any collections so it can be a tidy enough sum. For other birthdays you bring in your own cake...

Does anyone know are the two eastwoods from the two different parties of the same eastwood dynasty of boxing songs fame?

I know what you are getting at but like Say it's 15% humidity today and it was 20% humidity** last week Would you have two pages of a thread if I said it was less* humid today because i hadn't accounted for the 5% of moisture because it was still in the sea. In the instance of comparing one...

Today I went out for lunch with my office. There are only five in our department and I was told it was a mid year thing before they are off at various times over summer and they do it again at Christmas. It was a very long lunch, in my head I was like… are we even going back to work? Finally...

i have mentioned here before that i was the photographer at a friend's wedding in the unitarian church, where judith ring and jurgen from the jimmy cake were performing the music. i asked my friend beforehand what was the main song for the ceremony and she told me it was 'wild horses' but in my...

I need to go back to The Lighthouse. I watched the first half and never went back to it.

My cousin’s and a friend performed The Smashing Pumpkins “Tonight, Tonight” and Bonnie Prince Billy “Beast for Thee” at our wedding. My cousin couldn’t quite figure out the guitar so I ended up getting Matt Sweeney himself to teach it to him over the internet.

An octopus doesn’t have any tentacles. This joke is broken.

There were 20,000 less votes in this GE compared to the last one which would be “worth” about 2.6% of the vote in the current election. So trying to make an inference on a 3% change when the sample size changes that much is a stretch. Especially when it comes to a measure like voting behaviour...

He knows a good toolmaker. He also knows a guy who's out of work, but that guy's dad was a GP.

i think success has gone to the poor man's head.

Are you sure you are remaining in a logical state here :P I would come out that again, because it is maths, and not my opinion. All numbers that we are discussing that exist that we can discuss in real sense are literally 100'000s peoples opinions turned into a number. All we can do is observe...

don't come out with an arch 'it's maths, not an opinion', so, if actual maths doesn't support your conclusion.

Just got around to reading the most vague amount of info about the Neil Gaiman craic. Am i reading right that what is happening here is that these claims are in a podcast, like not a court case result? Could be depp vs heard 2.0 here.

I know a few of you know more about that part of the world than I do. I guess if it's transcending sectarian divides, then that's good?? I don't know, I never thought I'd see that, but if you say so I'll believe you.
