this comment doesn’t make any sense

I will be sure to auto filter any emails from that shit.

I know this isn’t about that but whenever I read a headline about Intel I’m reminded to be thankful for having these fucks as the only thing that could challenge the GPU duopoly. very encouraging.

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.

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.

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.

but that would disincentivize their activities. wow, very anti-business bro, don’t be such a pinko

yeah just Altair yourself in a group of hoodie wearers

nope. the right is celebrating too. going by the Facebook post alone, the population of which should already lean right, implying that the left:right ratio is 60:2 is stupid, though not too stupid for a fucking troglodyte.

yes, of course. and found not guilty, to send a message.

it was kinda interesting

well they’re doing it wrong then, aren’t they

what the fuck

I don’t think it matters. the specific ways in which email services work or are used are not what the analogy is supposed to explain.

it’s supposed to explain how two people who log in to different lemmy instances is different from logging into Facebook and MySpace, or Twitter and Threads.

"how does it work? aren’t they different sites?’

“you know how you can have a gmail and someone else can use an outlook email but you can still send emails to each other”

done. even 70 year olds would get it. problem solved. easy, approachable analogy.

apparently we won’t because we’re not modular enough
