Am I being idiosyncratic with my usage? I’ll try to stop that. What I meant:
correlated: high temperatures --> ice cream melting anti-correlated: low temperatures --> ice cream melting uncorrelated: price of tea in China --> number of FAI programmers
The point of my usage was that one would make more errors thinking anti-correlated things are correlated, but knowing things are anti-correlated gives one more information about P(A | B) than knowing they are uncorrelated, where P(A | B) = P(A).
