Reply to comment by clamraccoon in Recent Superbowl Win Probabilities, Ordered by "Excitement" [OC] by tree-of-thought
“winners win probability is low throughout the game” is one of the three factors influencing the composite score. (if it were the sole factor, the patriots falcons bowl would be the most exciting game by far)
The other two factors are “win probability closeness to 0.5” and “win probability changes”
You’re right, that awful rams super bowl won the “closeness to 0.5” category, which is why it’s ranked top 5
And yeah, it’s a fun cool project but not perfect. The best way to assess super bowl excitement is still to sit down and watch!

Russian tactics have changed dramatically and officers in particular have gotten increasingly more afraid of getting killed by leading from the front and being in HIMARS range. You can literally tell when HIMARS strikes hit officer concentrations (HQ buildings mostly) by the peaks in July and August.
More specifically, for the last few months (at least on some 50km of front line), Russian troops are sent (~10 at a time) on mindless assaults to locate Ukrainian positions and relay the information to artillery. They repeat the operation once artillery need more targets or to validate if the last shelling was effective.
All of this is widely reported by Russian troops on the ground.

The number of officers per day is the left axis, it peaked at 32 on March 6. The right axis, and white line, is tracking the number of troops "eliminated" by the AFU (their definition has never been clarified AFAIK, but it's widely understood not to include wounded).
As for the data, you can download/export the data presented in the visualization by hovering above the graph and 3 dots will appear on the top-right corner. You can export that data from there.

The point you raise is an important one. There’s no one way to do globalized trade without collateral damage. Specialized production has huge weaknesses in practice - just look at juggernaut oil producer Russia - it’s risky. The solution is not relying on Brazil for world ethanol production either.
My original critique was just pointing out the false narrative we’re given about ethanol production in the US. It’s marginally carbon negative and there are more productive ways to use the land in terms of climate change and/or human well-being. Food or grassland restoration, for instance.

It's useful because of disinformation and claims to disinformation/propaganda.
The data shows what we should expect, yes, and when copious amount of bullshit is flung all over the place, I find it important to validate the information available.
It's also useful to show the effect of changing Russian and Ukrainian tactics (and to prove that those tactics have a real effect).

Is it deemed more exciting if the winner’s win probability is low throughout the game?
If a team is heavily favored, even if the score is tied, their win probability is higher, meaning a back and forth game where the favorite has a narrow lead can skew this graph.
I think the Rams were favored in that dreadful SB LIII, and the biggest lead of the game was 10, meaning win probability stayed pretty level.
Cool data points. Like all data, it can be misleading

If you somehow feel that obesity is even close to the problem of hunger is the very evidence that the food policy US had is quite successful.
Frankly speaking obesity may take several years off your life, but starvation takes all of them.
Besides, obesity is a life choice and one can very well just not eat and throwaway any leftover. We can't do that if we don't have the food in the first place.
One thing that contributed the high obesity rate is high food cost of healthy food, so there are arguments to be made to expand the growing of the healthy food, maybe corn land should be spared for the healthier vegetables, but this is not argument for not growing excess food at all

Weird Hill ngl.. why does it necessarily have to be 2.5+? There could also be 0 from 0 to 2.5..

The US’s ethanol consumption is only so high because we mandate it as a component in our fuels…again, the corn subsidies. They’re manufacturing a need.

Where'd you get that from their comment? I mean, it is a big difference surely, but they didn't compare those two

My degree is in cellular and molecular biology. I do understand fermentation and related fields pretty well. Do you understand global economics? If we stop using corn for ethanol and ship it to places that might be willing to eat it, it will be so cheep that it will harm their local farmers tremendously ultimately making those places less food secure.
What else should we do with the corn?

Not sure if you have noticed, but we have a much bigger problem with obesity than hunger right now. We don't have enough storage capacity to reduce the consumption of corn by ethanol massively.

But we don't have a famine right now. And you can't store corn for ever.

Well if a deal breaker on a first date is "must be taller than me" which it seems like for 56% of women it is than there is a whole population of men who aren't even getting the opportunity to be shitty people.
