Hi, I'm Cindy Pom, and before starting Newsthink, I worked as an international correspondent in Paris and London, contributing to CBS News and Canada's CBC News, CTV News, and Global News. But I wanted to tell in-depth stories that aren't always given the attention they deserve in traditional news outlets. So, I decided to go independent.
Thanks for joining me on this journey of discovery!
Narrator: "How could he have descended into madness and be so paranoid?" Also, SOMEHOW the same narrator: "The FBI spied on him and his family. His parents never loved him. He was a pawn in The Cold War. He had no friends." He wasn't crazy, he was right and no one believed him. Then he went crazy. 😂
This whole story is troubling to me. When my kids were young, they did things that I thought made them the most brilliant kids in the world! IQ had nothing to do with it. The fact that this kid was jailed for refusing to fight in world war one makes him brilliant all by itself! I'm a veteran, so I know the difference. I'm sure I'll get rebuff for that comment. I have so much to say about this video. It's just so sad that he had so much to offer the world, and the world offered so little back to him.
I am still missing Steve Jobs. I wanted him to turn into a biblical good man ‘Job’ but knew that it was impossible! The world does not welcome a good man.
This makes me think that there is another dimension which is the absolute present, hence why there is a "speed of light". Shows more evidence of Jesus is you ask me.
I'm not sure who's dumber: vos Savant, with her idiotic justification, or all the people who accepted it. Anybody with a brain can immediately see that both "GAME 3" and "GAME 6" have a "CAR" behind "DOOR 3", something which was explicitly eliminated as a possibility. There were only ever four possible outcomes of this scenario: "Switch and you lose (GAME 1)", "Switch and you win (GAME 2)", "Stay and you win (GAME 4)" and "Stay and you lose (GAME 5)". So, two 'switches' and two 'stays'. Even chance to win, even chance to lose.
All of them end up in the situation of 2 closed doors with 1 revealed goat, which is what matters here. I also recommend looking at a simulation of the problem.
God damn, you people are stupid. I couldn't have made it any clearer. The "game show" scenario _excludes the possibility of choosing one of the doors,_ therefore including all three doors in the equation is _invalid._ But keep hero worshipping vos Savant, and abandoning common sense. That makes you smart.
Gary was right...that is Exactly what we did. When we broke into their sites we told them How we did it so they could Fix it. Some appreciated it & even recruited some of us to fix it for them, but most went apeshyte on us...we Never did any Damage to them..but they ran with the sensationalism of Claiming we did. ...so...screw em. Fix your own mess or let it get whatever it deserves.
Bobby was not crazy at all, that's a lie repeated from book to book. A repeated lie won't makeva truth. He was neither paranoid nor schizophrenic, he was just a very, very smart guy.
also, switching doesn't "increase your probability of winning"...that's a poor way of thinking about it. It's more accurate to say "Choosing to go with the door-switching strategy has a 2/3 chance of winning" because really, it's a strategy decision from the start. It's not 2 decisions with 2 different odds...it's really one decision. One path, you win if you picked the car first (1/3), the other path, you win if you picked a goat first (2/3). Really not that serious. But, oh she's a female, so....OMG SO SMAHT!
If “choosing to go with door-switching strategy” has 2/3 chance of winning, while staying gives you 1/3 chance of winning then, yes switching does increase your probability of winning. What you wanted to object is the fact that mere action of switching is not changing any probabilities.(since change comes from the fact you went from door with smaller probability, to a door with larger probability).
There are no zes games. There are only four games because the games with the car on 3 is not a game anymore. If the car is on 1 and you change, you lose. If the car is on 2 and you change, you win. So that is 50 %. It is the same if you keep box 1 in stead of changing from 1 to 2. So therefore it is again a 50 % chance of winning and not 2/3.....
You're completely lost. If there is a 1/3 chance of picking the door with the car then there is also a 1/3 chance the host will choose which goat to reveal.
“There are only four games” Nope, there are only 3 “games” since you can pick only 3 doors, therefore, for every pick you make, there are two doors left, each holding a car equally likely as the door you picked.
You are right in that Games 3 and 6 must be eliminated. What you are missing is that also half of the Games 1 and 4 were eliminated, I mean, they are half as likely now as the other remaining cases, because you couldn't ensure that if the car happened to be in your choice (door #1), the host would have revealed #3; it was only 50% likely. That's because door #2 would contain a goat too, so he might have preferred to open it instead. In contrast, in Games 2 and 5, in which the car is in door #2, the host is 100% forced to open #3, because he can never discard your choice and neither which contains the prize. So, despite you could say that the only current possibilities are four: Games 1, 2, 4 and 5, each does not have 1/4 chance, but rather Games 1 and 4 are 1/6 likely each, while Games 2 and 5 are 1/3 likely each.
Boeing made a mistake in not selecting a CEO from an engineering background. On the other hand, Honda's choice to prioritize CEOs with engineering backgrounds has proven beneficial, as it aligns with their engineering-driven culture and values, leading to innovative and successful leadership.
He might be on to something. Brain is plastic, meaning it is able to rewire it self, and indeed hard work of thinking and all that does pay off eventually as you tend to spend time, and eventually learn how to think while doing so. but it takes to be intelligent to become even more intelligent, so his iq might have been higher than 125.
