Do you know Paul F. Velleman’s Fourteen Data Aphorisms for Data Analysis ❓
➡️ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_F._Velleman
1/ Let’s read carefully and think about the first of the aphorisms.

13/ Another of Paul F. Velleman’s aphorisms is related to the co-evolution of different aspects of data analysis.
➡️ The data analysis process rarely proceeds in an orderly march from question to answer.
➡️ Software that requires us to know the question before we can seek answers hinders real data analysis.

@LabPlot@floss.social @labplot@lemmy.kde.social I love this practical interpretation of the empirical method. It can be quite hard to remain objective while your brain is grasping for familiar narratives! I find curiosity is a great way to resolve the cognitive dissonance.
