what’s right with it? doesn’t make sense it exists at all. it’s not 10- based obviously, but it’s not even 12- based like other imperial units. it’s 14 pounds! 14? who came up with this shit?

will have to demand capital punishment? no, murder 1 is not automatic capital punishment.

stone is my favorite stupid measure

wow. did he want to get caught? wtf

there’s no way this is the guy. if he gets convicted it’ll be because cops and DAs want the case closed at all costs because it’s so high profile.

welp seems like this is him

no. you don’t understand infinity, and you don’t understand probability.

if every keystroke is just as likely as any other keystroke, then each of them will be pressed an infinite number of times. that’s what just as likely means. that’s how random works.

if the monkey could press a for an eternity, then by definition it’s not as likely as any other keystroke. you’re again changing the parameters to a monkey whose probability of pressing a is 1 and every other key is 0. that’s what you’re saying means.

for a monkey that presses the keys randomly, which means the probability of each key is equal, every string of characters will be typed. you can find the letter a typed a million times consecutively, and a billion times and a quadrillion times. not only will you find any number of consecutive keystrokes of every letter, but you will find it repeated an infinite number of times throughout.

being infinite does guarantee every possible outcome. what you’re ruling out from infinity is literally impossible by definition.

this has nothing to do with the matter

why do you keep changing the parameters? yeah, if you exclude the possibility of something happening it won’t happen. duh?

that’s not what’s happening in the infinite monkey theorem. it’s random key presses. that means every character has an equal chance of being pressed.

no one said the monkey would eventually start painting. or even type arabic words. it has a typewriter, presumably an English one. so the results will include every possible string of characters ever.

it’s not a common misconception, you just don’t know what the theorem says at all.

I haven’t really seen people with Muppet acting like they’re anything other than actual living beings. everyone seems to fully embrace it regardless of their acting chops. they make eye contact, listen and converse with them respectfully, even though they probably see the puppeteers very clearly.

the actual analog isn’t a million monkeys. you only need one monkey. but it’s for an infinite amount of time. the probability isn’t practically zero, it’s one. that’s how infinity works. not only will it happen, but it will happen again, infinitely many times.

Bonnie and Clyde

also the most prominent idolized today isn’t Dahmer; it’s the guy who just got elected for president

that’s funny because suddenly after the enucleation insurance companies seemed to feel generous and denials dropped dramatically, and a famous decision on limiting the time frame in which anesthesia is covered got overturned. so some things were neutralized.

probably a cop

this isn’t a regular crime where people online try to crack the case. no one’s looking for him. except maybe cops, which means he’s probably gonna be fine.

wow he picked a silent pistol to not bother people around while doing cleaning. what a considerate guy.

as an outsider I would think no. you don’t have much political force to cultivate this sentiment. democrats are already acting shocked and devastated for their buddies. they’re on the side of ceos, don’t forget. insider trading party can hardly pretend to give a shit about the average person. they will wait for the flame to burn out. return to business as usual: protecting the rich, losing elections and all that.

yeah but it’s especially hard in this case.

• this isn’t the defense department; it’s the police. they don’t have a billion dollar budget

• this guy was killed in a dark back alley in the middle of the night

• they don’t have security footage on him

oh wait. sorry.

• the NYPD has a multi-billion dollar budget

• the suspect killed the demon outside a Hilton hotel under some fantastic lighting

• he did it right in front of a camera with such specific attire that it became a cosplay competition

so this is about fucking cops being as incompetent as they always are. if you don’t have black or brown people to shoot don’t even bother calling them; that’s why they signed up.

native speakers make spelling errors more often than non native speakers because they learn to speak the language way before learning to spell, which means homophones can easily register as the same word in your mind for years before you even encounter the words in writing. having to unlearn things is usually harder than just learning it in the first place.

yeah like they have functioning brains

yeah just Altair yourself in a group of hoodie wearers
