I have a friend whose romantic interest believe that there is no such thing as correlation EVER being the same as causation. EVER! Heat causing an increase in both murders and diaper rash (both proven facts) is COINCIDENCE, not the heat!
Next time she says it, you'll hear scream. 1600 miles away.
This still is something for the curricula in education. You (maybe) learn the math for judging correlation, but the distinction to causation rarely finds its way. Same with media publications.
Admittedly, causation is more difficult to prove. But it's important for today's discourses. So - learn it
Definitely! I'd spend a lot more time reading and playing video games I like as opposed to working. On an infinite timeline I have the leisure to pursue things at leisure, as it were.
