    …with more detail but still easy form in N. R. Draper and H. Smith, Applied Regression Analysis, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1968. with much more detail and carefully done in C. Radhakrishna Rao, Linear Statistical Inference and Its Applications: Second Edition, ISBN 0-471-70823-2, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1967. Right, this stuff is not nearly new. So, with some assumptions, get lots of guarantees on the accuracy of the fitted model.…

    …IBM Scientific Subroutine Package, SPSS, SAS, R, etc. to find some regression coefficients, they claim that their machine learned the coefficients. Gee, I didn't see that in, say, C. Radhakrishna Rao, Linear Statistical Inference and Its Applications: Second Edition, ISBN 0-471-70823-2, John Wiley and Sons, New York, 1967. or Breiman's CART. Again, the rest I see looks like hype. E.g., it appears that there is a basic, clever, publicity, hype idea:…

    …infinity the errors wash out much as in the weak/strong laws of large numbers and we get to f'get about the errors -- maybe there is such a theorem, I should get out my copy of the old C. Radhakrishna Rao, Linear Statistical Inference and Its Applications: Second Edition, ISBN 0-471-70823-2, John Wiley and Sons, New York. and look or do some such derivations for myself. But, to what end if we don't believe the mathematical assumptions for the mathematical…

    Still remember his Linear Statistical Inference and Its Applications from 1973 (as well as the Cramer-Rao bound, which I think he put forward already in the 1940s).
