If you can show that there is data to support a decision, it is more likely to be well received than one based on the experience, instinct, or hunches of any person.
I agree with that statement. Even though experience should have significant import, it's the numbers that matter - or so it seems.
But experience can tell you when to trust the numbers, and how much weight to give them.
As long as you look at the numbers. Too many people ignore them
At least partially because they are too often better off ignored.
Weather forecasts for example. . . .
Weather is apparently manipulated, so IMO it is not surprising that predictors based on pre-manipulated weather do not work.
How'd you know weather is manipulted? Fnord You must forget that Fnord :w00t:
