My spouse turns 65 in September. And, she already has Social Security retirement benefits. Does she have to begin Medicare in September, or could she delay until January 2027.

Limitations of Bayesian analysis

I am retired, but worked in the field as a consultant for 40 years. I think one thing that goes kind of under the radar are the limitations of the statistical analysis that we are taught. We all understand that multiple iterations of sampling are necessary to really do a good job of predicting overexposures. However, in working with many many small businesses, trying to convince them to have you repeat sampling even more than once is a real stretch. It leaves you having to make professional judgments based on single data points which as we know, are not great. Any thoughts?

I have been incubating golden teacher for about a month, but the mycelia is still only visible about 2 inches in diameter. Should I let it go longer or should I mix it now?
