I actually didn't mean to criticize Rapidata. I just think that a forced-choice question like this begs for low-effort answers. At least the respondents should have had the opportunity to explain their reasoning, like the LLMs did.
> And as macabre as it is, suicides are objective facts mostly unaffected by methodology, and unaffected by translation issues, cultural differences, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if cultural differences are actually the largest factor that explains a country's suicide rate. Not easy to prove, of course, but I would be very careful drawing any conclusions from differences in suicide rates between countries with vastly different cultures.
I think you can also expect large differences in how countries report their suicide rates.
As I understand it, size is one of the key indicators of melanoma. But in some of these images, it’s difficult to tell whether the mole is 1 mm or 10 mm. I assume your image set doesn’t include size information. If you can find sources with rulers or some kind of scale, that would be very helpful.
> All European banks require you have the app to be able to do anything with your account. The is more of compliance/regulatory thing.
This is not true in Sweden. I use three different banks in Sweden, and they all offer equal or more functionality on their mobile version websites.
This wasn’t always the case, though. In the early 2010s, I remember a bank blocking mobile user agents and referring to their app instead, due to “security”. I’m glad there has been some progress in the right direction since then.
It's a great book, I highly recommend it.
