> Correlation does not imply causation. https://xkcd.com/552/ "Correlation doesn't imply causation, but it does waggle its eyebrows suggestively and gesture furtively while mouthing 'look over there'." The article, incidentally, acknowledges this aspect of things. "The only way to really test that is to move beyond correlational studies and conduct experiments." > "Its not your fault you dont do anything with your life, its what you were born into" is dumb as hell. Few make that argument. The more nuanced and accurate version is "it's not shocking people with more obstacles to success fail more frequently". |
