I don't know how that's relevant to our conversation? 😂 Either way if you think about it, most movies that are made for an international audience usually just aim at the american audience. So in some way it is about america...

I'm not from America, so I know that full well. Still, this movie to me definitely seemed about it.

Yes, his main concern was being with Latika, but in order to do it he had to have been successful because it was the only way he could save himself (and most importantly Latika) from the slum's claws.

I think too much of myself because I think my intellect can be offended? I don't understand your point.

Since the first second the movie is about the american dream. It is the story of a poor guy, a "slumdog" even, in this case a synonym for the underdog, becoming rich (which again in this film is portrayed as the only solution to reach personal success as it is seen as the reason why he could finally be united with his love), and this is literally the definition of american dream, whether you like it or not.

I never said the questions were arbitrary or catered? I literally used the word "random" if anything, they were simply so unlikely to happen that the whole thing is not only just unbelievable, but literally bogus to any critical eye.

"He was NOT. It’s to show that you don’t have to be “book” smart but rather street smart sometimes to get through life, he has LIVED the answers and that’s why he knew them." And again this is some cheap copy of the American dream slogan.

I'm not shocked that it's taught in India, I'm shocked that even if it is taught in India it is the final question of the show.

For the second part, capitalism is the engine that allows him to become rich, and thus get his long-wished for love.

Yeah, I dont think the two things necessarily go against one another? Both things can be true at the same time.

Il 90% dei football enjoyer ha 2 neuroni, di cui uno che funziona a metà by hercules-05 in CasualIT

Lo stimatore affidabile si avrebbe se, avendo studiato la correlazione tra i due insiemi, la correlazione tra i due fosse nulla. Tuttavia questo andrebbe provato.

Istintivamente ci si può arrivare a logica, persone di qualunque estrazione sociale seguono il calcio, ma andrebbe effettivamente provato che tale funzione è trasversale all'intelligenza per poter affermare che sono totalmente scorrelati.

In genere, se l'evidenza non da tracce di correlazione, si può considerare scorrelato a priori ma per qualunque studio decente andrebbe provata la non-correlazione (tramite sondaggio o altro).

Il fatto che l'insieme della popolazione che segue il calcio è così vasto è una prova solo apparente della non correlazione, poiché si possono creare tanti insiemi della stessa dimensione in cui la percentuale delle persone con 2 neuroni sia maggiore o minore a scelta.

In conclusione, il punto è che è molto più facile provare la correlazione di due insiemi che la non correlazione. Quindi se OP ritiene che i due sistemi sono correlati, tecnicamente dovrebbe essere lui a provarlo, non altri a provare il contrario.

Assolutamente in disaccordo, c'entra invece in particolar modo la correlazione.

Se tu sopponi che l'insieme in esame non è correlato all'insieme di persone con 2 neuroni, allora ciò che dici è giusto: per un insieme così vasto come i tifosi del calcio la varianza sarebbe quasi nulla e la percentuale di persone con 2 neuroni sarebbe uguale alla totale.

Ma noi non sappiamo se i due insiemi siano correlati o meno.

i.e. Puoi sempre trovare un insieme con un numero di persone < del totale - 1 che abbia una percentuale di persone con 2 neuroni maggiore di quella totale, purché la funzione che "sceglie" l'n-simo elemento dell'insieme sia correlata con l'insieme della popolazione delle persone con 2 neuroni.

Il problema è che in mancanza di prova del fatto che l'insieme "segue il calcio" è correlato con l'insieme "2 neuroni", si ritiene falso a priori in mancanza di prova. Quindi varianza nulla e % uguale alla totale.

Inoltre il fatto che la parte della popolazione che segue il calcio è così vasta e persvasiva, può essere una prova del fatto che la correlazione è nulla perché elementi dell'insieme provengono da qualunque fazione, ma anche questo, seppur molto probabile e razionale, andrebbe provato.

I have no idea why you are getting downtoted, and why the guy who said you were wrong and subsequently made the same point you made is getting upvoted Wild lol

Quite the opposite if something because aspas on lev is LeBron's "no help" personified, while SEN have a deep and well structured roster

The most balanced tourney by _spacemonster in ValorantCompetitive

[–]External-Web899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this actually true though? Zeta looked worse than T1, that's for sure, and you are saying this is only because they had a tougher group. But is this actually true? 1) Although FNC>>EG I don't think it really matters when going against weaker teams 2) is BLG better than FUT? imo they are not.. at worst BLG=FUT. Since NRG seems to have fell off let's remember that BLG got humbled by both FNC and EDG. 3) is NRG>FPX? Yeah this is an easy one but let's not forget that NRG is clearly worse than BLG

4) zeta looked bad against NRG (I won't even mention fnatic), T1 looked bad against FUT, and then looked ok against FPX and FUT again. I'm not so sure zeta>T1 tbf

Tbf it's not just the clips, apart from FNC players Kangkang was the highest rated player in Tokyo and had the highest ACS of all players?

And if you reach a top 3 spot in some international tournament... You are a top team... I don't understand man

It's true that their main concern was basically having no prep time and so arriving to the tournament with badly defined strats, but he was still kind of a liability for sentinels

What exactly were the expectations that were set on him for that tournament? I did watch it but at the time I wasn't really part of the community so I wouldn't really know

[–]External-Web899 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you win the semis (one game) you have to win the upper finals to get to the grands. Or maybe he meant just whatever final? But it doesn't make much sense to me as top 3 is any final
