1/ There has never been a more concentrated distillation of my teaching than this lesson: Algos, Bias, Due Process, & You.

14/ Since we had just made use of a tool that purported to make predictions with some level of confidence, I suggested we might want to look more into what such tools are really telling us. So, I asked them the following.
@Colarusso ok, but: what’s the correct answer?

@blogdiva D, there isn't enough information/no way to know given just the info in the question. You need to know how prevalent the thing you're testing for is before you can venture a guess. See e.g., https://bail-risk-simulator-50382557550.us-west1.run.app/

1/ There has never been a more concentrated distillation of my teaching than this lesson: Algos, Bias, Due Process, & You. It is the apotheosis of what I do. I very much hope you enjoy it, share it, and make bits of it your own. https://suffolklitlab.org/algos-bias-due-process-you/
I agree, the design and work you put into putting this together is incredible! Thanks so much for sharing.

@stepheneb thank you. It was almost as much work as it was fun to put together. A bunch of things just clicked.

18/ It (https://fairness-simulator-the-toilet-seat-dilemma-50382557550.us-west1.run.app/) lets you simulate what happens when folks following different rules share a toilet. It assumes 2 populations, "sitters" & "standers" (folks who sometimes stand). It lets you see how different behavior effects 2 costs:
(1) the cost of having to change the seat's position before you use the toilet; and
(2) the cost of having to clean the seat if the last person failed to raise the seat when really they should have.
@Colarusso
Having both the lid and the seat always down levels the cost for sitters and standers AND is more hygienic -
