- derefr 10y agoI didn't say "the sun will rise tomorrow"; I said "the sun will rise today"—as in, the (trivial) probability that the sunrise that already happened, will happen, looking forward from the more distant past to the more recent past. Given that we are talking about the probability of that event occurring from a reality where it occurred, the updated probability of it occurring is 100%. (But we cannot have 100% credence, simply because we can't actually be 100% sure we're in said reality.)
