If they released a $50 DLC that just adds a bunch of super difficult achievements I'd pick that up just to support them. I've sunk 4 figures of hours into that game and I regret not having any of my goals left to achieve. I'v

I'm really masculine. I'm tall, reasonably heavily muscled, assertive, hyper competitive, dominant, etc. I've still had some friends tell me that they wouldn't have been surprised if I was gay/bi. The only explanati

My understanding is that this advice wasn't based on keeping Coronavirus numbers low but on reducing the damage caused by economic loss to parts of the worlds population. My country, Australia, has done amazingly well at containing the

Why are people who did math degrees not doing well? Math degrees open all sorts of doors, at least once you get a bit of post grad education.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that good looks affect the sentence but that they play a lesser role in if you're convicted.

The initial diagnosis was crap. Add in some surgery and the diagnosis improved dramatically, different type. As far as a cancer diagnosis goes I got off really well in the end. It was the initial stage where I felt I had a death sentence th

I wasted my 20's and got diagnosed with cancer at 30. It changed my perspective quite a bit and so far my 30's have been the best time of my life.

Yes. In her Twitter thread she implies that she was able to judge the HBCU curriculums to be equal to that of white universities while also not understanding the basics of percentages. Maybe I've got outrageous demands but I expect any

I'm confused. Google had never hired from a HBCU and she increased it by 300%. Wouldn't that imply that it's still at 0?

He retired from the NFL at 26, so sadly I think a lot of neural damage has already been done. High school football, 4 years of university and then another 3-4 professional seasons. He has still made a great choice in retiring early, he&#x27

I think high profile sports people are an exception. For one, they're rich/famous/athletic and this leads to women being very forward with them. This run this lifestyle for long enough and they're bound to get into troub

The reasons behind this are a big part of why I will only look at porn that features older women by porn standards, i.e. 30 years old, or verified amatuers in their 20's. It's not a fetish, I just don't want to view porn of w

That's the beauty of the lottery from the article. I've done the math on my local games and it tips into your favour after the jackpots get high enough. The issue with my local lotteries is that the EV comes partly from the main j

What is Empire? Is it a video game? I only know it as a post exploitation tool.

Thank you for sharing such an interesting tale. Life is one of those journeys where you're presented forks in the road that you can only see a little way down and you need to choose just one, always to wonder what the other fork held.

Damn, that's a heavy post. If you follow the timeline you see him go from "I'm just trying this once" to addiction and his recovery many years later.

I cannot imagine a situation where someone is a good, experienced, effective developer who has never come across the modulus operator. I just put about 6 seconds of thought into it and you could also program: * Fizzbuzz with a loop that has

This is a very one sided post and it's the power that Timnit wields. It's the reason she went to Twitter to break the news, to incite mob outrage. It's not about being right or wrong, it's about what negative publicity y

To me, it stinks like a convenient excuse to remove someone who was difficult to work with. Only last week she slandered her bosses on Twitter, which is a public forum.

by MaximumYComb 6y ago
How does she think that's acceptable? You don't slander your boss in public unless you think you're untouchable or you want out.

I factored that in when I did that calculations. How often are their multiple winners and when there are multiple, how many. A surprising amount of the return comes from the non-jackpot prizes, 58% or something. You'll see crowds linin

Because I don't have the $50 million laying around to do it. The EV is only in my favour when I factor in the small prizes PLUS odds of main jackpot / value of main jackpot.

by MaximumYComb 6y ago
I've done the math on my local lotteries and the EV tips into the players favour when the jackpot gets a bit bigger than 30 million, even if you share a jackpot with one other. This is due to the return of 3,4,5,6 and 7 numbers all add

Quick picks are quite random and, from my experience, I'd argue that over 2/3rds would be different from how humans pick numbers.

Also,instead of buying $10 in a weekly lotto every week, you save your money and wait for it to cross a threshold of value and then buy using the saved money. 50 entries into a $70 million lotto is better than 1 entry, 50 times onto an aver

It sounds legally like coercian. There are some porn producers who are going to jail for a very long time (their whole life) over this. Recruit girls for a photoshoot, tell them a couple days out that it's a porn shoot but it's fo
