We think this cool study we found is flawed. Help us reproduce it
Very early on in their explanation of the experiment, I found myself asking "What is random?" I'm sure one of you smart mathematicians has a learned perspective on this, but to my thinking, a whole lot of hairless apes sitting behind their keyboards randomly beating patterns for entertainment is pretty <i>random</i>. So to say that one hairless ape is more random than another in their keyboard pounding is pretty subjective. I guess I'd further posit that a person over 60 might not really give a shit much so their keyboard pounding might be less enthusiastic compared to the 20-something. Is that really measuring randomness or something more like physical dexterity in mouse movement and keyboard pounding?
