However, I think he did take donations for early access to new titles,
When video game companies accept money for early access to their games, that’s a sale. You give them money, they give you access. I’m not sure why that wouldn’t also apply here.
From your description, unless you were allowed to donate $0 for access, that sounds a lot like a sale to me.
Imagine just chilling in the dark, minding your own business, and some asshole comes at you with a light as bright as the sun, and you can’t even close you’re eyes because you don’t have eyelids.
Whoa, good work! I think I’m going to have to go over this a few times to grock how it works, especially the Φ(b) - Φ(a) bit. My stats textbook has a bit too much dust on it. ;)
Moreover, that’s not how probability works in independent events.
It’d be like saying “I flipped coin A 1 billion times and got half a billion heads, so now that I’m flipping coin B 100 times, I probably won’t get any more heads.”
It should be fairly obvious that you can say the exact same statement about tails, and get a completely contradictory statement.
Yeah, I was trying to compute the “ballpark” of the odds, but it’s actually hard to do because of how astronomically improbable it is. Even computation systems that are designed to compute rather big/small numbers (think 100,000,000^1,000,000 big) fail.
Here’s another example: If a human only had 1,000 gut microbes, the chance that over 900 of them get snapped is 1 in ~10^162 [WA]. (This was roughly the biggest number I could get WA to yield a non-zero answer for a >90% snap.)
Now if you do that for every human on earth, the probability is still essentially zero. [WA]
When you consider that humans don’t have 1000 gut microbes, they have over 10 trillion, it’s just mind bogglingly improbable.
The alternative is even more disturbing: snapped humans leave behind a cloud of poopy gut microbes.
That would be incredibly unlikely. Due to the huge number of gut microbes, the chance to even lose 5% off of the median, even with billions of trials, is functionally zero.
Phrasing!!
RIPBOZO. Streamers like this guy are why everyone hates influencers. I hope they throw the book at him.
I will warn you, it’ll push your requirement for understanding game mechanics, and make you solve problems in new ways from the base game. It’s also not feasibly beatable without at least some understanding of circuits, logistic mechanics, and (space) trains.
That said, good luck, and may your factory grow in perpetuity!
It’s not for everyone, but if it’s for you, it’s amazing.
I’d highly recommend beating the base game first if you haven’t already. The complexity really ramps up quite a bit, so if you struggle with the base game, it might be better to hold off. That said, if you’re confident in your problem solving skills and willing to push through some of the tougher bits, you could totally jump right in to Space Age.
I think I’m at around 100 hrs in to SA so far, and maybe (optimistically) half way through, and I’ve loved every bit. Except Gleba, fuck Gleba. :)
No, it’s not really a common problem. I mean in a big city, it’ll surely happen from time to time, but in the 10 years I lived in TO, I never came across one.
This poor guy just happened to go viral and become a posthumous celebrity. And yeah, that’s the racoon the poster was referencing!
Call city services, and then hold a vigil? #DeadGooseBC
I’ve seen a few graphs in my day, and they generally don’t do that. Sure, it could happen, but it almost certainly won’t. :(
That said, the US and China both making steady progress is very good, but then again, a Trump presidency certainly might see some of that reverse.
I think the big questions is: how do we get Russia and India to curb their emissions? If India follows China’s per capita curve, but with a 20 year delay, it’ll be disastrous. They’re going to need significant help to continue industrializing without seeing a huge rise in emissions.
I don’t think I’d have seen this coming even 5 years ago, but China really might be positioned to be a global climate leader.

Edit:
You are kinda right, though:
The city originally planned to put the structures in Barrhaven, but, after community pushback there, said one shelter would now be located near the Nepean Sportsplex and the other near the Eagleson Road Park and Ride in Kanata.
So was this just a purely “everyone’s doing it, so the customers (shareholders) expect it, so we’ll follow suit” type thing? Do mass layoffs inspire confidence in the stock so it goes up? It’s hard to understand from a rational position that throwing away money makes money for the investors.
I think what’s incredibility obvious to you and I is an area of willful and encouraged ignorance for some who benefit from the results of their ignorance. I think that the media is largely complicit is beyond distasteful, but it’s also the reality we live in.
I also think it’s important for wikipedia to work through their own NPOV policies. It should be applauded that they eventually arrived at the correct conclusion, AND moreso that they spent time considering and discarding contrary positions.
Accepting one particular viewpoint with no consideration is dogmatism, and is not helpful to progressive causes.
Good point. Guess it just indicates how unpredictable he is. Just like how he said he’d build a wall, then built a little chunk of wall. It’s all about doing the minimum possible to placate his base.
I’m just here trying to get a grasp on what the actual implications of his presidency are going to be. :/
Lost opportunity to call it “Operation CatSnip”
