i’ve been doing some reading in economics. just a couple of quotes
“… forecast errors from a good forecasting model must be unforecastable!” (Elements of Forecasting, Diebold)
“The statistical literature describes false positives as Type I errors and false negatives as Type II errors. Most common of all is the Type III error: not being able to remember which one is which.” (Thinking strategically, Dixit)
