Well, the theory is either true or it isn't, so there's a 50/50 chance it's accurate.

>Either it happens or it doesn't. This doesn't establish the claim that there's a 50/50 chance of anything happening.

Chance of something happening with 50/50 chance is 50/50 and so on. Which proves that chance of anything happening is 0. Ergo nothing ever happens.

>a box with 99 blue balls and 1 red ball >1 in 100 chance of drawing a red ball >draw 100 times >never get a red ball Explain this then. If there really is a 1 in 100 chance then how is it possible to draw 100 times and never get a red ball?

Rick doesn't do it like that. He takes the cat out the back, skins it, and removes the tail to make it spherical and then puts it in a vacuum tube.

If everything is a 50/50 chance, then everything has a 50/50 chance of being 50/50. >if everyone is a 50/50 chance, then noone is.

I think you're confusing chance and states. Something happening or refers to state ie it either exists or it don't, whereas the likelihood of something happening would be where you say it's 50/50 or whatever odds.

Yes, but there are many steps between something happening, so the probability of something will be 50/50 of 50/50 of 50/50 of 50/50 of....

Everything in the universe has a 100% chance of happening, because everything that happened, happened.

To find the probabilities, we calculate the squared norm of the components of this new vector. First, we normalize the vector by dividing by its total norm [math]N = \sqrt{(1/\sqrt{3})^2 + (1/\sqrt{6})^2} = \sqrt{1/3 + 1/6} = \sqrt{1/2} = 1/\sqrt{2}[/math].The normalized state is: [math]|\psi_{normalized}\rangle = \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} |GG\rangle + \sqrt{\frac{1}{3}} |GS\rangle[/math]The probability that we are in the [math]|GG\rangle[/math] state (meaning the other coin is also gold) is the square of the coefficient of the [math]|GG\rangle[/math] basis vector: [math]P(\text{Other is Gold}) = \left| \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} \right|^2 = \frac{2}{3}[/math]inner product spaces are the most elegant way to state the weighted sum of events

It's actually a 13/27 chance it will happen.

Everything is a 100/0 chance. Either it was gonna happen or it wasn't gonna happen.

You can easily test this theory by liquidating all of your assets and going to a casino for a few hours. You’ll either win or you won’t. Every hand / pull / spin / roll is 50/50 so the more you play you’re practically guaranteed to leave as a billionaire.

either everything is a 50/50 chance, or it's not so there's only a 25% chance

Thing X has multiple (at least 3) predefined states it could reach. It reaches one of those states. According to you, the chance of having that happen was 50/50 and not 1 in 3.

Arguing with these retards is how you lose. Only the feeble brained will seriously believe this, everyone else is trolling. It's not even amusing, unlike some trolling.

Whatever the options, odds are not 50/50, that's retarded. It's 100/0 for the thing that happens, duh. Whatever happens, is what happens on 100% of attempts (n=1)
