I cannot tell if you’re joking or serious!

Not American, sorry to disappoint

I was looking for Belgium, but then I remembered. 😭

> think we should probably be clear that life expectancy isn’t only tied to healthcare quality or expenses. Car accidents and gun-related homicides, for instance, are major contributors to U.S.’ life expectancy being so low,

Not really.

There was one study showing this to be the case, Ofstedt and Schneider I think, and they got so shredded on the maths that they had to go out and admit that they never intended to get it right!

The maths is not terribly hard, how many 18-year olds need to die to lower the life expectancy of 325 million people by one year? Is that more or less than the US lost through WW2?

This made me curious; small depreciation and no lease fees for airplanes, so I looked a bit.

They have $2126M in airplanes, so obviously they depreciate very little. But their net earnings are not even 1.5% of the value of the airplanes.

Better to sell the planes, fire everyone, and stick that money in a bond.

I bet this would be the same when you bet in favor of the Odds. The house always wins!

Didnt Croatia get to the final against France last time? Wouldnt be that much of an upset.

Tell me your American without telling me your American.

I bet 30 of reddits fake betting currency in Croatia to beat Brazil and made a mint. Makes me wish I bet real money

Not really. It doesn't break down what they actually sold. How much of that is tickets, how much is fees, additional services etc.? And where do the "other" $500M come from?

Did you watch the 2010 world cup? Have you heard of vuvuzelas? Dude, give me whistling any time.

Never. Would he appreciate fish&chips in the same way as Shola? Never.

Yeah, this belongs on /r/dataisunintelligiblebecausenobodyknowsallthoseassociationsbyheart.

Weird. Also, rankings have been updated every month or two for the entire period. We have maybe 8x as many data points available as have been plotted.

Cheering for a team or whistling against a team are two different actions. They are the only team whistling against opponents, really sad.

Ah…so it’s the yield curve inverting over the year. That makes sense now. Thank you

What that 2019 outlier? I don't think you can get to statistical significance on that one year. This looks like what I'd expect it to look like. You're probably better getting into the big data game by game statistics if you're looking for sings of tampering.

So, the fans support the team? The audacitty!!

Croatia has been at war in the first part of this graph, and later is pretty consistent I would say.

"right now"

Flags that wrap around the semi circle would've been cool
