I think most bayesians would disagree with you on this point :)

It's not incoherent to analyze the posterior distribution by reporting a credibility interval instead of a single number (for example the posterior median).

Can you expand on this? Bayesian data analysis looks at the full posterior, and reducing that to a single number is frowned upon by most.

Caught this late this morning - any DO employees still here? I'm signed up for the k8 & postgres betas but haven't had any luck getting k8 opened up. Would LOVE to participate in the postgres managed beta - definitely trying to move off from AWS for this.

I completely agree with you there- I'm a huge fan of well run charters (like KIPP for example) but they don't seem like a scalable solution because they demand so much more of their teaching staff. My comment was more just a criticism of charter school enabling legislation - states that allow online charter schools or home school charters just don't pass the smell test (to me at least).

That may be true for Success Academy but there are some truly awful charters out there. The problem is that what it means to be a charter school varies so much from state to state and even from district to district.
