Thanks for engaging with the response blog posts, including mine. Minor thing but I can't find the phrase you attribute to me in what I wrote ("more conditional")?
Apologies for the confusion. I was referring to others who have told me that recent papers have made their intervals more conditional, but I wanted to use scare quotes because I'm never sure what they mean.
To clarify, I just updated the post to say "the scare quotes here are mine, not Jessica’s."
You mentioned Doyle's paradox but I can't seem to find any information about that. Is this John Doyle? Is there a paper or set of papers he sets out his arguments in that you could refer me to?
It's getting a little self-referential at ye olde arg min... I need to think harder about how to maintain continuity while appreciating most people don't read every post.
I have the most important response of all. What's your stance on "blog post" versus "blog"? If you use "blog" for post, what's the term for the arg min portal itself?!
Of course, I've been enjoying the posts! Keep them coming.
You are not the only one who's asked me this. I use blog interchangeably for the website and the post, hoping it's clear from context. I realize this stance is controversial. What's your opinion on proper usage?
It is clear from context, absolutely, so no problem there.
I say blog for the publication and post for the article. I think that's the correct usage! Even the publishing platforms have buttons that say "publish post" or "post" when we want to publish...
