Share a story about someone who had a positive impact on your life. When I was younger, I believed that because I was a strong analytical thinker, I’d be unstoppable in debate and the rest of life.

The best kind of p-hacking…
When do you feel most productive? For the tongue in cheek title, I apologize. Generally, data fraud isn’t particularly helpful at allowing insights to be built. I feel most productive on days when there’s something I’ve been dreading doing that I make serious progress on early on in a given day.
