Crashout has been postponed I forgot to use a vector instead of a single value - I can calculate it fine

This is coming on the heels of spending two days on a ridiculous multivariate optimization problem. My poor, smooth brain

The multivariate normal distribution is fun because I’m just gonna trust an R package to compute the PDF values for me - I’m not gonna spend the time to verify it’s correct or even that I’m using it right lmao

Wouldn’t be a Saturday if I didn’t spend an hour writing a proof for the take home section of my midterm.

At least there are no numbers involved..?

Missed two questions on one of my stats midterms. That’s decided my evening activity - hyperfixate on why I got those two questions wrong and come to the conclusion I’m a deeply flawed, stupid individual.

Did my first Sunday as a member of the bishopric. I think it’s gonna be fun, especially since the focus is helping the youth enjoy church!

I think my dad enjoys that I’m getting a stats degree more than I do because he now has someone to commiserate with about how mathematics courses work in college

My multivariate stats midterm is 4 questions. I’ve provided nearly 2 dozen answers to different sections of each question.

scores of pissed off Mormon CIA agents who just got canned are ideologically cross-pollinating with platoons of fired trans FBI agents. we are on the verge of new types of politics our ancestors could only dream about

Just had my stats professor (he’s a biostatistician) set up an ordinal scale with gender identification and political party. I died a little inside

The more math I have to do by hand for my grad program, the more happy I get when I find two statistically independent variables.

Nothing quite as sobering and uncomfortable as using a bunch of math to tell your boss he’s set too aggressive of goals and his sales people are probably not gonna hit their monthly goals
