Show HN: A more intuitive linear regression interface (Statwing) (statwing.com)

We've been working hard on a more intuitive regression interface:

. Plain-English description of results

. Inline data transformations (e.g., taking a log)

. Automatic diagnostic charts and distribution visualizations

. Automatic alerts to common issues (e.g., funky residual plot)

. Plain-english guides to regression [1] and interpreting residuals [2]

. M-estimation instead of OLS

This is of course a work in progress, so we'd love to get feedback on this. Particularly if you see something in the docs you don't agree with.

(Logistic regression is also in the works, we'll probably do a "Show HN" for that later, so please hold comments on it)

Interesting choice by linking to a deliberately flawed regression model as an example, which allows the utility of the diagnostics to show.
