Dear Wizards, 

 

I commend to your attention a blog post from 538 in which Nate Silver talks
with the guy who leads the University of Washington health metrics modeling
operation.  I understood barely one word in five, but the chief difference
between them seems to be on the degree to which they rely on priors or curve
fitting.  You folks will, I predict, know what that means.  Don't hesitate
to explain it to me.
