And propaganda. LOTS of propaganda.

Only because he fucked up and went after the Mouse lol

Mouse will fuck you up

Companies don’t want fascism, they just want tax breaks. Civil war and dictatorships are bad for business.

We still have Hummers. Aerodynamics isn’t everything.

I don’t want my car sending any data out to anywhere, that’s all. And all those features should be able to be manually disabled, because I personally am not a distracted or tired/drunk driver so I don’t need any of that stuff.

Touch screens are cheaper, that’s why they did it.

My point was that needing more people is the root issue. So while I didn’t explicitly make your point, I do agree.

When multiple fields of science all agree, yeah they know what they’re talking about.

I just don’t get these anti-science types…

Within that finite set, one combination is the complete text of Hamlet.

Exactly. That’s the point.

This article fundamentally misunderstands the entire thought experiment by using finite monkeys. With infinite monkeys, we’d have the script as quickly as it is physically possible to type the script.

Doesn’t matter in the real infinite monkeys thought experiment. The chance of an infinite number of monkeys at an infinite number of typewriters producing Shakespeare is 100%. That’s how infinity works.

It’s really not that long, if we can’t get monkeys to write Shakespeare.

The probability of lots of things is zero. The probability of a monkey typing a Chinese character on an English keyboard is zero.

Similar idea: there are an infinite amount of numbers between zero and one, but none of those numbers is two.

That’s not bold, we’ve known how long the universe will last for decades now.

One of them is mathematically guaranteed to get the job done in time.

In fact - and here’s the trippy part - an infinite number of them is mathematically guaranteed to get the job done in time.

Hypothesis: every science journalist should be placed in front of a bitch-slapping machine for the rest of their career. Every time they think about writing an article, they get bitch slapped. This will greatly improve the quality of science journalism.

The whole point of the thought experiment is that you have infinite monkeys.

That’s fair. But I think that’s kind of what I’m doing by combating the trolls. “Some of these people spout bullshit, but they get called out by the community”.

Linux doesn’t work for me
