老土教授常说“让数据说话”，我很赞成。但有时大家也要小心被数据耍了。
学统计课时教授说的笑话：
1. If you interrogate the data long enough, it will confess to anything.
2. A policeman sees a drunk man searching for something under a streetlight and asks what the drunk has lost. He says he lost his keys and they both look under the streetlight together. After a few minutes the policeman asks if he is sure he lost them here, and the drunk replies, no, that he lost them in the park. The policeman asks why he is searching here, and the drunk replies, "this is where the light is".
第2个笑话没提数据，当然数据就是"this is where the light is"。
懒得翻译，就交给Google吧。翻得好坏大家都笑一笑哈。
1. 如果你查询数据足够长的时间，它会承认什么
2. 一名警察看到一个喝醉了的人，一盏路灯下寻找的东西，并要求已经失去了什么喝醉了。他说，他失去了他的钥匙，他们都路灯下看。几分钟后，警察问他是否是肯定的，他在这里失去了他们，醉酒的答复，没有，他失去了他们在公园里。警察问为什么，他正在寻找在这里，喝醉了回复，“这是那里的光”。
