Introduction: There was some confusion on my last try , so let me explain one more time . . . The flights I where Hipmunk failed (see here for background) were not obscure itineraries. One of them was a nonstop from New York to Cincinnati; another was from NY to Durham, North Carolina; and yet another was a trip to Midway in Chicago. In that last case, Hipmunk showed no nonstops at all—which will come as a surprise to the passengers on the Southwest Airlines flight I was on a couple days ago! In these cases, Hipmunk didn’t even do the courtesy of flashing a message telling me to try elsewhere. I don’t understand. How hard would it be for the program to automatically do a Kayak search and find all the flights? Hipmunk’s graphics are great, though. Lee Wilkinson reports: Check out the figure below from The Grammar of Graphics. Dan Rope invented this graphic and programmed it in Java in the late 1990′s. We shopped this graph around to Orbitz and Expedia but they weren’t interested. So I

5 0.55785418 234 andrew gelman stats-2010-08-25-Modeling constrained parameters
Introduction: Mike McLaughlin writes: In general, is there any way to do MCMC with a fixed constraint? E.g., suppose I measure the three internal angles of a triangle with errors ~dnorm(0, tau) where tau might be different for the three measurements. This would be an easy BUGS/WinBUGS/JAGS exercise but suppose, in addition, I wanted to include prior information to the effect that the three angles had to total 180 degrees exactly. Is this feasible? Could you point me to any BUGS model in which a constraint of this type is implemented? Note: Even in my own (non-hierarchical) code which tends to be component-wise, random-walk Metropolis with tuned Laplacian proposals, I cannot see how I could incorporate such a constraint. My reply: See page 508 of Bayesian Data Analysis (2nd edition). We have an example of such a model there (from this paper with Bois and Jiang).
