It's obvious you've never actually ridden a bicycle in a busy city. I have to deal with drivers making lethal mistakes every single day I commute on two wheels. Given the number of idiotic drivers yacking on their phones I'd take my chances with half a pound of silicon any day of the week.
My theory is they don't go into STEM because of asshats like you. When they do, they go into fields where asshats like you aren't welcome. For example, my workplace has a firm "no asshats" policy, and, guess what, lots of STEM women.
It's certainly true that a huge amount of repression of women is done by women (especially mothers). I'm sympathetic to arguments that there is a natural component to gender biases, but I really struggle to believe that they cause differences as large as those actually expressed. And we're certainly nowhere near understanding where nature stops and socialisation begins.
Do you have any evidence that men find it more appealing? Because I can find lots of evidence that women don't like putting up with your shit and frankly that seems a much simpler and likelier explanation.
No. Please take a couple of statistics courses, in particular something that covers a Bayesian approach, then come back and explain what's confusing you.
Well, because that would be making an assumption without any credible data to support it, whereas there is avast amount of accumulated evidence showing that women are treated like shit in most walks of life.
That has already happened in a number of places, including the London Met's trials, and is one of the main reason many rank and file officers are 100% in favour of cameras.
The alternative is that Scotland keeps the pound on a dollarisation-style basis and England is left carrying the can in a crisis anyway (because letting an RBS go to the wall is not credible).
It's an often unremarked fact that nations tend to be a bit more amenable to living in peace with nations who have the capacity to lay waste to your country. Concentrates the mind wonderfully.
Don't want to contradict one who knows, but as anyone who lives on the Gareloch can tell you, subs sail right into Faslane submerged. You rarely see them on the surface and generally they only do it for a specific reason, ie someone wants to look at them. If the light was right and the tide low, it was generally pretty obvious, though as the Gareloch isn't all that deep.
No, that's 520 civilians employed on-base at Faslane. There are a lot of MOD personnel who live and retire locally and a huge number of people employed by the knock-on effects of having a major facility. I could walk the streets of Garelochhead and find you 500 people whose employment depends on the base in some way by lunchtime. Thousands is a lot closer to the truth.
RStudio is an IDE for the R language. When an author conflates that with whatever those other things are, you can be fairly sure whatever he's saying is likely to be up there on the bullshit scale.

These little bastards.
Only slightly smaller than a regular pigeon, or at least the specimens I've seen are. Though one can never be certain with taxidermy...
Wise words.

Incorrect.

Not really, no. Gosh, I must be very silly.
And your evidence for this is?

You missed the point of the lesson. The point was that you didn't have enough data to demonstrate that your model was valid. That's all.
Get real. Anyone doing "statistics" who doesn't understand the concept of a prior is just pretending to do statistics. That is a problem.
What if congress banned owning metal cylinders attached to a breech and trigger device?

At least you didn't use SECAM. That really does justify a nuke.
Yeah, this shithead grew up within a stone's throw - literally - of Faslane. I also know how to Google. So again. Citation. Please?

Yes, but that's a slightly different issue.
