Friday Face-Offs: “Elections Poll” – 3rd Place
If you wanna be the hottest new poller on the scene, you’ve gotta learn generalized correlation. Just like the android tutor says, “Collapse the y-axis.”
I like 4:20 – 4:31, when the android tutor falls silent in deference to the raw beauty of data!!!
Look, honestly, all you really need to do is turn the data into blobs or shapes and everyone on CNN will be like, “Can we use your polls tonight on the news? Your blobs are so correlated, we love it.”
