(Image below of a famous example of survivorship bias. The red dots indicate bullet holes on WW2 bombers that returned. Someone wanted to reinforce the parts where bullet holes were found until someone pointed out that the other parts of the plane were the places where bullet holes brought the planes down, and thus no data was collected.)

@tofugolem I carry this on my bag as a reminder to myself, and a conversation starter.

A close-up of the badge on my bag. It has the bullet-ridden "survivor bias" aircraft image overlaid on a bullseye target in trans colours. There is text saying "Because the others did not survive".
