Comment This article misinterprets the IEA model (Score 1) 73

The Current Policies Scenario model assumes all policies globally are frozen at their current state, then projects from there. It's not realistic, and not worthy of a lot of upset.

A well-informed article on the misunderstanding here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sustainabilitybynu...

The article linked is just click bait.

The analyst said that Twitter's data quality is "horrible". Chowdhry said that many pollsters used Twitter data to predict a Hillary Clinton win in the U.S. election but the fact that Donald Trump won shows that data quality is poor. One reason for this is too many fake users on the platform, Chowdhry claims.

Twitter has had issues with monetization, but the idea that the platform is somehow flawed because some idiot used it as a source polling is nuts. You can't determine an election from reading tweets.

Twitter differentiated itself from other social sites by embracing simplicity and mobile. The simplicity of twitter has also hurt it, because it keeps failing at expanding the platform beyond tweets making it a poor growth stock since its user growth has stagnated.
