[text over an image of a boy and a wolf, the text says: “Never confuse Type I and Type II errors again. Just remember that the Boy Who Cried Wolf caused both Type I & II errors, in that order. First everyone believed there was a wolf, when there wasn’t. Next they believed there was no wolf, when there was. Substitute “effect” for “wolf” and you’re done. Kudos to @danolner for the thought.
