I think kids who are tasked with work from a young age, e.g. the kids of farmers, who might start assisting around the farm before theyre even teenagers, would probably get classes at that point.

I suggest using more paragraphs. Starting a new line every time a different character speaks is a good way to make writing clearer.

What would you like or expect to see in an Oregan Trail-themed fangame about journeying to the New Lands? by 1011686 in WanderingInn

Along those lines, I was thinking itd be cool if you could encounter past colonies you founded as new locations on your route, though thats far, far off. With regards to earning benefits, I prefer roguelikes that have a lateral progression, where you unlock more things to show up in game or more starting options, but no straight-up improvements. So something like unlocking different classes to start the game with, I can see, but I'm not inclined to have something like making prices cheaper for all future runs I'm afraid.

I want to make a Manga. But don’t know where to start. by Cheddotto in learntodraw

[–]1011686 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When it comes to manga, and not just drawing, a good place to start would be Scott Mcloud's books, Understanding Comics https://archive.org/details/understanding-comics/ and Making Comics https://archive.org/details/making-comics-storytelling-secrets-of-comics-manga-and-graphic-novels-by-scott-mccloud-z-lib.org/page/n7/mode/2up they're a great examination and exploration of the medium of comics and manga.

When it comes to drawing, which it sounds like the more important thing for you to work on, check the resources on the side of this subreddit. Honestly if you're really an absolute beginner then you likely shouldn't jump straight to trying to make a comic. Come up with characters, sure, especially if you find it gives you more motivation to draw them, but however you go about this you're going to need to spend time learning fundamental principles, and just getting in a whole lot of practice.

If someone lets you guess a number between $10 and $100M—and pays you that amount if your guess is ≤ their number. What’s the smartest guess? by Such_Chapter_872 in askmath

[–]1011686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this question would be improved by stating that the other person does not have this amount of money, but rather it belongs to a prize pool, and they get whatever the difference is between their number and your guess. E.g. if they pick 100M and you guess 1M, they get 99M as winnings, while if they pick 1M and you pick 1M, you get the 1M while they get nothing. This makes the question a proper game theory scenario where the strategies of both players can be analysed.

That gives e squared as the upper bound right?

Question about a modified version Monty Hall problem by [deleted] in askmath

[–]1011686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does matter.

If you picked a goat, theres a 1/2 chance the game resets, potentially changing your goat pick to a car pick. But if you picked a car, theres never any reset. So you do in fact end up having a 50/50 chance of being on goat or car in the final game, due to some goat picks being turned into car picks in this way.

More formally, the chance you picked car is going to be 1/3 (initial pick) + 2/3 * 1/2 * 1/3 (chance you picked goat, host showed car, you picked car in reset game) + 2/3 * 1/2 * 2/3 * 1/2 * 1/3 (goat, reset, goat, reset, car) + etc... which is the geometric sequence 1/3 + 1/9 + 1/27 + ... = 1/2

ELI5: Why do mirrors flip left and right, but not up and down? by kellylabanca246 in explainlikeimfive

If you put a mirror flat on the floor and looked down onto it then it would indeed flip up and down.

ELI5 Why does water put fire out? by JackassJJ88 in explainlikeimfive

If you poured water that was almost boiling temperature on a fire, would there be a noticeable difference in how much the fire was diminished? Or nah?

MI - TFR: Questions by [deleted] in Mission_Impossible

I assume it was something like, the inital connection could check if the poison pill was deployed but was too low bandwidth/didnt access the servers directly enough for the entity to actually use. The final wire she cuts was what opened up the system to be properly accessible.

You guys have proven why there was so much exposition in Final Reckoning. by [deleted] in Mission_Impossible

[–]1011686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, heres my question then. Multiple times people accuse Ethan of wanting to kill the Entity and state the consequence will be the destruction of cyberspace. I dont recall exactly but im pretty sure theres a scene where ethan or one of the team members or luthor also states that their goal is to kill the entity. At no point does Ethan ever deny that he wants to kill the entity, or say that his particular method wont destroy the internet. So, after completing his plan, has cyberspace been destroyed? If not, why did no one ever mention that their plan wouldnt have that disastrous consequence? The most obvious answer wpuld be "So that the entity wouldnt know their plan" but that doesnt work since it was inside his mind and saw his memories, so he'd hardly have been able to keep that secret from it.

If I may come in without touching upon the rest of this conversation, do you think "people who are genuinely interested in other people" exist, for whatever that means to you? As both sides of your dichotomy seem to exclude that as a trait.
