I believe the idea is that, because his reaction to a pumpkin pleading for help was to stab it to death, that either he discovered something about himself and couldn’t handle it, or that he was exposed to be a crazy killer type.
Seems to me this is more like the equation that maximizes happiness for people who don’t have the mentioned things.
Plenty of people have food, money and sex, rightfully obtained from their perception, yet are still very unhappy, even suicidal. This is what you think you need. It’s not even necessarily what you need.
Asking someone else to graph data for you to analyze is a disrespectful misunderstanding of how data analysis work.
The person graphing is doing the data analysis. They have to, at some level, to make the data presentable. If you are incapable of doing that, and your contribution is to be fully reliant on what they graph so you can look at what they make and go “huh yeah line does go up” you aren’t useful. They can tweak the data to say many things, and you wouldn’t understand it happened.
You can definitely analyze a graph/chart, but unless you need help understanding a more complex representation, there’s not much you can argue with. Even if you know of a bias in it, they can just make up something about avoiding another bias or increasing focus on an area
Maybe it depends on the domain, but I think it is perfectly reasonable both to ask or produce graphs to show data trends, qualitative behavior, relative rates, etc. I mean, looking at one chart and acting like you know better than the analyst might be a duck move but wanting the chart isn't.
Imagine if scientific papers didn't use plots to visualize data?
I have a peer like this. Good intentions but he has a massive ego. I do a lot of technical work and he is a project manager. He often doesn’t understand the actual issue at play and this can summarize a lot of our interactions easily.
Thankfully. I call the shots when it comes to resolving the issue. His input isn’t always necessary 🤣
Seriously though I’m amazed at how many people don’t understand basic cooking and how easy and necessary it is to take interest in self health and basic nourishment. But then get shocked when their organs start to shut down before 50. Like “omg they are trying to kill us all with salt and sugar in fast food” shouldn’t be a shock anymore. It’s capitalism. That’s how it works. They don’t care about your body.
