@arandomthought that's very helpful, thank you so much!

@arandomthought
I read some similar comments online, but there were also positions contrary, but I think this makes sense.

And I didn't know about the infinite population thing, that is interesting.

If I may a follow up: despite p values, regression models and correlation tests can still be interesting to apply to census data to measure effect sizes and such, right?

@MarcusMuench @rstats @phdstudents @datascience @socialscience @org_studies
According to the second article:
"...A p value should be interpreted in terms of what would happen if you repeated the measurement multiple times with different samples..."
If I have a census, I would expect zero difference for repeating measurements due to random sampling. Therefore p values are irrelevant for census data.

Thanks for the references!
