#Regression

Regression analysis is the statistical ritual of summoning the specter of a straight line from past data to masquerade as a fortune teller for the future. The model always pretends perfection while harboring a devil called error. With each line drawn, it beautifies the relationship between explanatory and dependent variables, erasing the complexity of real life. In corporate boardrooms, a single graph becomes a magic spell to demonstrate competence, and people worship the R². It grants excessive confidence while clouding actual outcomes, the most irresponsible method of prophecy in existence.
