Thanks for this, OP. This is why I come here.

As OP noticed likelihoods often do show up in a comparative context. In that context one is asking which thing or sequence is most likely to occur by chance relative to another, under an (over simplistic, sure) IID assumption. In practice, the ordering of such things is often (hand-waving, sure) robust enough that, given no other information than the marginals, it is useful. So I think OP almost answered his/her own question: they are often quite useful in a comparative context and with no additional information.

Congrats and thank you for this. If you’d asked me when I was a young h4x0r just starting out, what sorts of links I should find on a site called Hacker News, I’d have said something like this one. Looking to get lost in these issues during the holidays. You made my day!

The last paragraph may be your best option, if you’ve truly exhausted the possibility of a shared vision that can keep you all engaged. I would drill into why your co-founder is against it, but I imagine it could be that they don’t feel they can do it all over again without you. If this is the case, maybe you could help them find another cofounder. Regardless, there’s no sense in misleading others, or wasting your time or theirs, since that karma will follow you. At least, that’s my opinion, FWIW. Good luck!

True or false, the jokes write themselves sometimes

Speaking anecdotally from my own experience, having multiple caregivers may just increase the probability that the child can tell that at least one of them actually wants to be there.

I got downvoted 2 points for asking this question LoL

Genuinely curious, HN folks - for those who downvoted this comment, can you share why you did so? I don’t personally mind sarcasm as long as it’s not aimed maliciously at an individual, and I read this comment as a sarcastic way of saying “how come American leadership in general doesn’t have a similar plan”. Do folks just downvote sarcasm as a rule?
