[[INTRODUCTION]]

The world of academia often focuses on topics and correlations that are deemed to be of significant importance and relevance to society. However, every so often, a research endeavor arises that strays from the beaten path and delves into the delightfully offbeat and quirky. In this vein, our research seeks to explore the seemingly improbable correlation between the esoteric nature of PBS Space Time YouTube video titles and the unassuming population of boiler operators in the state of Delaware. This unlikely pairing not only tickles the fancy of researchers but also presents a novel and unconventional opportunity to investigate the interplay between the whimsical and the practical.

While the field of nerdiness, especially in the realm of quantum physics and quantum quarks, is often associated with the esoteric and the intellectually formidable, the world of boiler operators in Delaware represents a steadfast dedication to the essential and pragmatic. This contrast sets the stage for an intriguing exploration into the connection between the quirky YouTube titles and the unassuming everyday occupations.

The delightful juxtaposition of these disparate elements sets the tone for a whimsically engaging investigation. The divergent domains of quantum physics and boiler operation may seem to have little in common, but as we will demonstrate, the patterns that emerge from our analysis reveal an unexpected symbiosis between the enigmatic and the everyday. This unexpected connection prompts us to ponder the charming interplay between the peculiar and the practical, challenging us to reconsider our assumptions about the associations that underlie the fabric of our contemporary world.

In the pages to follow, our research will elucidate the comical correlation between the quirks of quantum physics and the quotidian routines of boiler operators in Delaware. Through the lens of statistical analysis and data exploration, we aim to shed light on a peculiar phenomenon that is as thought-provoking as it is lighthearted.

The aim of this paper is not only to present our findings but also to convey the subtle humor and whimsy that can be found in the intersection of the unexpected. With this spirit in mind, let us embark on a journey of discovery that will challenge our preconceptions, tickle our intellectual fancies, and perhaps even elicit a wry smile or two.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]

In their seminal work, Smith et al. (2017) delve into the esoteric world of YouTube video titles and their potential impact on niche occupational demographics. Their findings shed light on the surreal connections that may exist between seemingly unrelated phenomena. Similarly, Doe and Jones (2019) engage in a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between linguistic quirkiness and the idiosyncrasies of regional labor markets.

Drawing parallels from the fields of quantum physics and boiler operation, the present study brings to mind the classic work of "Quantum Physics for Dummies" by Steven Holzner and "The Boiler Operator's Handbook" by Kenneth E. Heselton. While these texts may seem disparate, their underlying theme of complexity distilled into practicality mirrors the underlying essence of our present inquiry.

Expanding on the work by Smith et al. (2017) and Doe and Jones (2019), the authors find themselves compelled to cite the astute observations made in "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene and "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" by Robert M. Pirsig. Though the latter may seem tangential at first glance, the philosophical undertones and unexpected connections resonate with the themes our research seeks to illuminate.

With the quirky nature of our investigation in mind, one cannot help but recall the board game "Betrayal at Baldur's Gate" and its apt demonstration of unexpected linkages. Much like the unfolding plot of this game, our analysis uncovers unlikely ties between the nerdy realm of PBS Space Time YouTube video titles and the unassuming population of boiler operators in Delaware.

Moreover, in exploring the intersection of the whimsical and the practical, the authors cannot overlook the thematic resonance found in works of fiction such as "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams and "Good Omens" by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. These texts embark on convoluted, uproarious voyages of discovery akin to the whimsical journey to which our present research beckons its readers.

The results of our study have illuminated a veritable menagerie of peculiar connections, proving that the intertwining of the nerdy and the practical is not just a quixotic quirk but a quantifiable reality. Building upon the foundational works of Smith et al. (2017) and Doe and Jones (2019), our findings provide empirical support for the notion that the linguistic whimsy of PBS Space Time YouTube video titles exerts a fascinating influence on the occupational landscape, particularly in the realm of boiler operation within the state of Delaware.

The robust positive correlation coefficient of 0.9663936, accompanied by a p-value of less than 0.01, lends empirical weight to the whimsical hypothesis posited in our research. The r-squared value of 0.9339167 further emphasizes the substantial explanatory power of the nerdy YouTube video titles in elucidating the variations in the number of boiler operators in Delaware. Echoing the wisdom of Holzner (2006) and Heselton (2014), our investigation unwittingly affirms the theme of complexity distilled into practicality, as observed in the parallels drawn from quantum physics and boiler operation.

The unexpected nature of this correlation resonates with the revelatory observations of Greene (2003) and Pirsig (1974), underscoring the unanticipated connections that thread through seemingly disparate domains. Moreover, the whimsical nature of our findings aligns with the comedic wisdom of Adams (1979) and the whimsical insights of Gaiman and Pratchett (1990), drawing a tapestry of convoluted, uproarious discoveries akin to the unanticipated bond uncovered between the quirky YouTube video titles and the unassuming boiler operators.

In hindsight, our methodology harnessing AI analysis of YouTube video titles and Bureau of Labor Statistics data might have seemed as improbable as navigating the convoluted plot of "Betrayal at Baldur's Gate," yet it has yielded a trove of unexpected revelations.

Correlation r = 0.9663936 (Pearson correlation coefficient)
Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.

r2 = 0.9339167 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 93.4% of the change in the one variable (i.e., The number of boiler operators in Delaware) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., How nerdy PBS Space Time YouTube video titles are) over the 8 years from 2015 through 2022.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 9.3E-5. 0.0000925109610854294300000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.

But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.

Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.97 in 0.0093% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 10,810 random variables Which I absolutely did.
with the same 7 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 7 because we have two variables measured over a period of 8 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.

[ 0.82, 0.99 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.

This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!


All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.

Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works

  1. Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
  2. Lack of causal connection: There is probably Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
    no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied.
  3. Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
    p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
  4. Very low n: There are not many data points included in this analysis. Even if the p-value is high, we should be suspicious of using so few datapoints in a correlation.
