In case of three doors, after one incorrect door is opened switching means you have a 2/3 chance of being right. Think of it like now you're picking two doors instead of one. The hinge is that the door opened isn't random, it's always an incorrect one. Sorry if I'm repeating things you've already been told, but no part of your brain should deny it

>>593997644
Cleavage resembles buttocks and most animals mate from behind. Big breasts make missionary worthwile.

>>593997065
Here's a way of thinking of it.

When you make a switch after the first door has been opened you either go from wrong-to-right or right-to-wrong, yeah? That's the two only choices left - right and wrong, and you're going from one to another.
Now at the very start there were 2 wrongs and only 1 right. Which means the odd are you picked a wrong door. Which means that the odds are in your favor that you'll go wrong-to-right, instead of right-to-wrong.
2 out of 3 times you will go wrong-to-right, since there were 2 wrong doors.

>>593998431
The thing is, nothing changes, if you'd pick the same door you would also have 2/3 chance of winning

If the winning/losing percentage would be different it should be psychology

>>593997065
>>593998584

And yet another way of thinking of it.
What if there were 100 doors from the start - 99 with goats and 1 with a car.
You pick one door. The odds are highly against you picking the car. You only have 1% chance.
Now we open 98 of the doors, leaving only the one you picked and a single other door. You're told that the car is between one of them.
Now, do you think it's 50/50 because there are two doors now, or are the odds heavily in your favor if you switch?

It's the same concept, just expanded.

They get their mass from the soil and air around them. The energy to do this comes from the sun, like most other things on earth.

>>593997065
Yeah, I still have trouble believing this. Sure you're chances change to 1/2 after one door is opened, but what now sticking to the same door seems like it should be the same as picking that door among the two, as if there never was a third door. Yet, I'm told this is stupid. I"m told that there's a difference between the two because I already picked the one. They say statistics support it though, so I'll just trust it.

>>593998978
Very well explained. Thanks

>>593998584

if there are only 2 doors left taht automatically makes the odds 50/50 just through elimination of one of the options. chance is just a tool that we use to deal with no knowing the specifics of somthing, its not a physical law of the universe

the only right answer is that the same goat is behind door 2 (his ass end) and 3 (his head)

My poop was once a delicious meal.

Also, there must be so much poop in the world.

>>593998954
The thing that makes your original choice less is that you picked it when all three were available to choose. Nothing can be done to change that that door represents a 1/3 chance. However switching means that you're now selecting both of the other doors.

On second thought, I do understand that part of you denies it. After all there are mathematicians out there that also don't believe it. I believe it's been proven in experiments, though.

Planes only fly if their thrust is greater then their mass.

It's like swimming--if you have a weight belt on so you are more dense then the water you sink--the only way to "fly" underwater is by producing more thrust (force) up than your weight is pulling you down (mass times 9.8 m/s^2 minus buoyancy).

Flying is just swimming, but in air

>>593999504
It would be 50/50, if you came in at that very moment. Then it wouldn't matter.
But it's not an isolated incident. The switch choice builds upon what happened earlier - you had 1/3 chance of picking the right door and now a wrong door has been removed. That's not the exact same thing as 50/50.

Think about it in reverse.
Three doors, two with cars, one with a goat. You will pick a car 2/3 of the time.
Now a car is revealed and removed. Do you switch? No, because you're still holding on to your 2/3 door, the one you picked when the odds were in your favor. It would be silly to gamble that away for the 1/3 chance that you picked the goat the first time.

It's the same thing, only reversed. It's dumb to keep the door since you're still holding on to your 1/3 chance that it was the car you picked the first time.

>>593999633

Learn about density.

>>594000185
Sure, it's an exaggerated example, but it's to prove the point that the choice to switch or not isn't 50/50.
It depends on what happened before.

And switching in the Monty Hall problem isn't a sure thing. But it will result in a car 2 times out of 3, so it's the best thing to do.

The fact that one door was revealed didnt change nothing !

>Planes only fly if their thrust is greater then their mass.

Incorrect. If a plane weighs 20 tons then the engines would have to produce 30 tons of thrust, min.

That's wrong. Here's why.

The engines need only produce enough thrust to move an aircraft forward at sufficient speed so the lift factor of the wings becomes great enough to carry the aircraft into the air. No more than that.

Using a calculation of a lift/thrust to load/drag ratio then the thrust required to lift a 10 ton aircraft into the air would be 12 thousand pounds of thrust. In other words, thrust only needs to be slightly more than ten percent of the overall weight of the aircraft in order to fly.

Oddly enough once you start looking at detailed information about Conservatives with an open mind, willing to dig deep enough to get past the bullshit it'll begin to dawn on you that it's the Conservatives who're most interested in protecting and preserving the standard and way of living that Americans want to keep.

Careful examination of Democrats reveals that all they're interested in is maintaining their status quo, their power and their control.

Republicans: Oppose big government, high taxes and excessive social programs because a lot, if not most Republicans know what that whole welfare system's really all about.

Democrats: Seek to preserve the present welfare state because it guarantees them a massive voter base in perpetuity.

>Democrats vote for their checks. Not fo what's right.

>If the US government completely abolished all social welfare systems in the US then the Democratic voter base would evaporate to nothing overnight and they would be swept from power with little, if any chance of ever being re-elected because of all of the truly horrible mistakes they've made in the past, mistakes, incidentally, that they've never confessed to or owned up to which, to me, is the absolute height of governmental irresponsibility.

Try to look at it like this: Over the course of three games you pick door A all three times, to start with, 2 out of those 3 times (since you're playing three games) he was forced to open the only possible wrong door. (since he's got the other 2/3 doors).
This shit is hard to explain, i guess if i can't explain it i don't understand it enough.

Gay and straigh are just social constructs. Your genes tells you to fuck other humans and in most cases that means you get attracted to a person with the opposite sex, but not always. You are still only human and the genes main expression is "go fuck something", not "go gay" or "go straight".

>>594002604
except you of course

>>594008293
But how are they selected?
Is there something from nature that makes some creatures gay, so they don't mate?
Usually every single creature tries to get its seed spread as much as possible, even trying to ruin it for other males or shit like that.
I can see that some other straight animal can step in and pick up the slack, but that comes after the gay animal have failed to breed. Why was it gay in the first place?

They're just oddities. They don't have to serve a purpose. It's like asking "how can some people be born with crippling deformities? What's the point?"

As far as a mechanism goes, there are suggestions that a fetus being exposed to higher than usual levels of female hormones in the womb can be more likely to lead to a male with homosexual tendencies, or alternatively to a female who is more "feminine" than usual - higher desire for sex with men and greater tendency to be nurturing and devoted to children.

All I can tell you is what I played.

I picked one of 3 doors.
A second door with a pig is opened.
I switch to the other remaining choice

Restart
Pick one of three doors
Door with a pig is opened
I pick the one I had picked from the beginning

Results were for the most part 50: 50.

>>593999624
I don't understand why this is a thing. I mean, once the goat is revealed the odds change. They don't stay constant. If all 3 of the doors would open, you wouldn't have a 33% chance to pick the right door, you would have a 100% chance. There is no 2/3 chance in the other 2 doors after one is opened.

>>594008986
>But how are they selected?
Remember, the important isn't the creature, but the gene that uses said creature to be spread.

For an example, if an hypothetical gene makes all the male carriers infertile (ex: gay) but make all the female carriers have more than the double of offspring they would without the gene (like, having 5 kids instead of 2), this gene will eventually spread until it reaches an equilibrium.

Of course, I don't know if this is what happens with gays, but it's a possibility.

The democrat voter base is most certainly not centered solely around the welfare system and its recipients. There are simply not enough people receiving any great amount of money from our welfare system to prop up a party.
Like it or not, both party's are working constantly to appease their biggest interest groups, who tend to be frighteningly moronic.
Sure, some of the biggest interest groups supporting the Republicans are ideological groups, but most of the country's largest interest groups are ideological groups. Those ideologies just translate to economic concerns more often for the Liberal groups, who tend to support the marginalized, who tend to be poor.

Both sides are heavily flawed, but unless who drastically raise popular voter efficacy, things will remain as they are.

Humans have breasts because we are the only species whose mouth doesn't protrude outward like other animals. (Chimps, dogs, cats, giraffes, niggers)
The protrusion of the breast with the nipple on the end lets the baby feed without suffocating itself.

Imagine a really, really large tape. Right?
Said tape is divided in small squares. Said squares can have a dot (1) or no dot (0). And there's a machine reading the content of said tape, and depending on the sequences of dots, making different things:

0000 - pulls a second tape (begins writing)
0110 - punches a dot in the second tape (writes a 1)
0111 - skips the square in the second tape ("writes" a 0)
0001 - stops pulling the second tape (ends writing).

Now, imagine there wasn't just a second tape, but a third and a fourth and a five... and said machine could read and write in those tapes at the same time. Imagine also the instructions were fairly more complicated than just "write dot, pull tape", but also things as "if the 3rd and 4th tapes have a 1, write a 0 in this square but a 1 in the next square", or "send a 110111 electric signal to the monitor". This would be a computer.

"If the thrust-to-weight ratio times the lift-to-drag ratio is greater than local gravity then takeoff using aerodynamic lift is possible"

That's strait from wiki, which somewhat supports you.

I was only considering "If the thrust-to-weight ratio is greater than the local gravity strength (expressed in gs), then flight can occur without any forward motion or any aerodynamic lift being required"

by this definition you have to have more thrust than your down force =gxm (gravity times mass).

The anon made a bad sentence, but did say "protruding", which should have given some of the meaning.

How acceleration due to gravity isn't affected by mass.

I understand how m cancels in the equations. I understand that joining two objects together by glue doesn''t increase the acceleration it experiences.
I understand heavier objects just have alarger force on them.

>>594013843
gravity is affected by mass. The more mass it has the harder it is for gravity to pull it so it falls slower. The less mass it has the easier it is for gravity to pull it so it doesn't pull as hard, making it fall slower.

>>594013843
>How acceleration due to gravity isn't affected by mass
Your mass is always constant, unless of course, you gain some or lose some physically. Every object with mass falls at the same rate (9.8m/s^2), but what separates us from a feather is air resistance. That's why in the video where the astronaut drops a feather and a hammer on the moon, they fall simultaneously

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5C5_dOEyAfk

I guess it's just because our mass compared to Earth's gravitational field, or the mass of very heavy objects like planes, boulders, etc. can't compare to the size of Earth's gravitational field either.

>>594013999
The past and present are not points, they don't exist. What we perceive of time is something supposedly physical interacting with the material world, we measure it and call it the passage of time.

The trouble lies in accepting that time only exists to be measured. And if there was nothing to measure it, would it still exist. We've never been able to give time a physical property, so instead we give it an virtual one, a temporal particle, a chroniton, something concrete we can hold and alter.

When the truth as I see it, is that all time is, is the presence of light interacting with objects that can perceive it. There are untold problems with this theory however, hence the post.

Try to think about it this way. There are two properties inherent to a body, mi (inertial mass) and mg (gravitational mass). The first is the resistance the body makes against a force. The second is how strongly it interacts with the gravitational field.

Well, in all known bodies mi = mg. So you can just reformulate your question to another much cleaner, which is: Does mi equal mg always? If so, why?

Horses graze on pasture, but they need hay to sustain the diet. Basically animals who are herbivores are taking the easy way out, they can just eat whatever is growing around them so they developed more sophisticated and stronger stomachs. Other animals that are predatory are smarter because the food they eat has more nutrients, however this means they have a harder time finding edible food. Grass, bark, leaves don't have many nutrients, and if they do we don't have the stomach to digest the plant matter enough to get the nutrients.

>>594004571
A speaker is an electromagnet hooked to a membrane. As you change the current (using the the "0" and "1" from the digital representation of the song) you will turn on and off the magnet. Since it's hooked to a membrane, that membrane will start to undulate and push air molecules. The air molecules will then carry over those pushes until they reach your eardrums.

A microphone works in a similar way, but "backwards". Your the sound you make will be carried as pushes via air molecules into the microphone where something will register the alternation in pressure (e.g. a membrane with an electromagnet which gets pushed and therefore creates a current as it moves). The pushes are then recorded as "1" and "0" and creates a digital representation of the sound.

In the first computers, all the instructions were set up by putting plugs in certain holes intead of other holes, and then removing said plugs. There was no such thing as OS or BIOS, just a bunch of human hands.

Then, eventually, they learned that punching a tape for instructions they would repeat over and over and making the machine read from that instead was more convenient. It was the first conjunct of instructions, the first "program" proper if you want.

However, they begun to develop more programs... and some of them required the same instructions to be inserted beforehand. Instead of just punching those over and over again in different tapes, they decided to punch them into a "master" tape they would insert in the machine before the other tapes. It was the first shared library.

And what's an operating system, if not a bunch of shared libraries and programs required to run other programs?

Yes, one of the earliest weapons of mankind was singing. I've lost the sauce, but I read an interesting thesis about the development of early man through singing. The reasoning was that the only animals which makes noise are those that are either the biggest, baddest around or those cocky enough to know that they can get away with it; everyone else tries to be as quiet as possible. Early humans (as well as some relatives to us, the howler monkey) learned to "sing" in harmonies and noticed that it created a more powerful sound (i.e. constructive interference of the waves) than random chattering. This allowed early humans to climb down from trees and scare away predators; imagine being a lone hunter which runs into a gang of singing soccer hooligans, you'd be too intimidated by their behaviour to dare to attack - especially since early humans could combine their "singing" with banking on things in rythm (to create more constructive noise) and had a keen aim when tossing stones. This means that we became the cockiest animal on the savannah and learned to survive through singing. Music has been a very early discovery by man.

Fucking sports. I get that they serve some sort of communal need, and release of emotions that in modern society just can't be released any other way.

But...who gives a shit who wins? It's a bunch of millionaires, with nothing in common with you, playing a bunch of other millionaires, who have nothing in common with you. At best, you share a zip code with them.

Ugh.

Nice story bro, but just that of course, since this kind of shit can't be proven.

Prints are thousands or millions of dots of ink on paper or otherwise, the computer tells the printer the location of each dot and the printer places one at each location. If the optiom applies, the instructions sent by the computer will include what color the ink is.

The signalling is made by the neurons trading one ion for another. Both ions traded are positive, potassium (K+) and sodium (Na+); however, since sodium ions are smaller, the neuron trades three sodiums for two potassiums, and get an overall negative charge.

Said charge difference can either make another neuron get another charge difference... or incentive a contraction of a muscle to happen. That's how you move.

It doesn't go _that_ fast as you think... like, in some people, the signal between kicking their ass and the ensuing pain takes almost 0.5s. Compare this with a computer, where you can get over 1M signals per second.

Plus, the shower curtains (or cabin, if you have that) creates an enclosed volume which means that the gasses will have less place and thus become more concentrated (and linger longer because of the lower mass transport out from the volume)

Cricket... Cricket is beyond me.

Computers.

How does it know how to do things?
Yes I know that there is C and whatever and you can tell it If x then y and stuff, but how does it know what "if" or "then" is. How could you teach it in anything?

>Nutrients are found in soil.
Nutrients don't give a tree/plant its mass. Carbon and water do. Water is not part of the soil, although it can be in it.

Grew up with basic dot-matrix printers. They have never had any magic for me. Noisy and crude.

It's the level of him not understanding that rises as time passes. The more time passes, the less he understands. That's the line. And we can see it gets pretty steep, so his confusion climbs at a higher rate the more he thinks about it.

The pictures are just where certain confusing things fit in on the wtf-scale. They don't have anything to do with time, it's just saying "when I think about Cricket (or whatever) for X amount of time, my WTF is Y, which is the same WTF as I feel when thinking about magnets."

It's a machine that obeys the instructions given to it in basic input/output.
So programs are composed in binary, 1 and 0. 1 tells a component to switch on, and 0 tells it to switch off. A program would give instructions to the machine, which gives instructions to your memory volume commanding it to access more files of 1 and 0 and images and what not of 1 and 0 that tell those images where to go on the monitor. This is the GUI... otherwise you'd do computing through terminal or command prompt. Words (commands) represent strings of 1+0 combinations, which are again, instructions for the machine.

Consciousness

Seriously, how the fuck can we be conscious, self aware and aware of our surroundings - Not just our immediate area mind you but somehow an ape that never had to do anything more complex than recognise a predator in tall grass has in the blink of an eye been able to do highly complex mathematical equations, perceive the universe in all its vastness while theorizing the existance of other dimensions as well as infinitesimally small particles that produce fields that interact on a scale that should be completely beyond our ability to comprehend... My head hurts...

And fucking magnets!

there are more stars than there are grains of sand on earth, but there are more atoms in a single grain of sand than there are stars.

The voice in your head when you are thinking.

How is it possible to hear your own or completely different voices in your head without saying a word so clearly?
