Cool project, you can also add the option to guess the population and have a scoreboard of who was the least wrong.

People that have spent their entire lives in academia consoling themselves for their wasted years with fancy graphics. :)

How is this legal? Isn't it gambling to allow people to earn/lose money in a game?

Whoever wrote that and is not 14, it's a clear sign of stunted emotional growth.

Seems the implementation is Haskell, would've been much cleaner in Ocaml. Appearently it's a grad coruse in functional algorithms but can't even see the time-complexity analysis of heapify.

Upvoting doesn't mean agreeing with the study. It means it's fun to talk about, discuss and exchange opinions about the topic.

This is a fact and if you disagree Big Beef will come after you.

I stand corrected. Now it makes sense that only 1 side-effect in his circle.

Thanks.

They said: "I don't have a large social circle." You need to read context a bit more carefully.

It's a back of the envelope calculation. I've a strong intuition that the precise answer isn't too far off.

You are wrong about what is meant by a "social circle". They are people that he socializes with.

Definition of social circle is "A social circle is a group of socially interconnected people". I doubt anyone would complain about having a small social circle if it contained 2M people. :)

Odds of death from AstraZenaca are 1 in 1 million. Let's take odds of the event of having serious complications to be 1/100,000 just to be more skeptical.

The odds that 5 people in a row have such serious side effect is 1/10^25. That is equivalent to tossing 83 coins in a row and getting all heads.

Which is more likelier. 1/10^25 or that you have false information regarding this. : )

That's an overly optimistic vantage point. Many things will change. For the worse.

They are about learning and education though. How could they possibly not be. The other things like connections, socialising, getting drunk are just extra bonuses. This idea that universities don't provide any value to society and that they should be replaced by poorly structured YT videos with tons of mistakes in them has to go. Has no basis whatsoever.
