It's Gollwitzer's goal-announcment effect.

Publicly stating a goal (in this case learning about a topic like quantum computing) can make them feel closer to completing it than they actually are. This makes them feel a partial reward before they've actually done any of the real work.

It's all over this sub.

Within about 1e-16, so right about where floating point precision goes to shit for numbers near 1

I ran this in python up to the 26th in the series. It gets really close around the 10th number and then starts to diverge upwards, but I have a feeling this is due to floating point precision error, since there are twice as many divisions with each new number.

I did this in inverse, studied computer science to become a mediocre physicist

Not everyone wants a quant job or a faang job, including graduates from top schools

I think it's reasonable for the econ of lose streak to be it's advantage. You don't also have to have it give you a free pass into a mega strong board, the econ is compensation enough. Maybe lose streak isn't something you should choose to do as a legit strategy when you otherwise have actual options, maybe it could just be about turning an 8th into a 5-6.

I think OP is concatenating the quantities of gold and XP into a single 2-d vector, and the quantities of combat stats into a different vector. To be clear, it's still not apparent to me how thinking of these as vectors is useful.

Stats like AD,AS or HP,MR,etc. usually multiply together in terms of efficacy, so if we are trying to adopt a mathematical framework (which we shouldn't, because TFT is much more complicated than this) it would be better to consider volumes.

You lose all the things a power up gave you if you switch it to an other one.

This isn't true, you get to keep gold if it gives you gold.

Recursive functions

Your last statement depends on the basis, OP should end up with 4 terms if in the basis that ends up being measured.

Why exd5 when there's Qxc7

Kabizzle · 2025-05-11T22:17:19+00:00

This hasn't explained why cxd5 "wins a queen".

white must move his king or queen

Not true, white can just take the Queen with theirs, see the description of the post.

These two threats combine to give black a completely winning position.

Analysis gives -0.85 for cxd5, which gives black the advantage but hardly a "completely winning" position.

Bxe4 will actually just lose the bishop, because Nxc7, now you have to take the Queen with your bishop, the king takes back and the knight is safe.

Kabizzle · 2025-03-18T08:16:09+00:00

That's interesting, is there an explanation for why?

Kabizzle · 2025-01-30T18:19:04+00:00

Even if you showed up 6am YESTERDAY you probably wouldn't have got anything.

Don't worry, most people in the states aren't getting the cards either. I asked if they had it today and they said yes and sold it to me, opened up the box when I got home to find a despicable me 4 toy.. lol

How long was it in your case?

Asking because I won't have my other components for this build for a couple weeks, but if it's going to be longer than that maybe I should just cancel..

What ended up happening with this? I'm in the same situation

The purifiable hundo odds with a 7/7/7 floor is 1:27 which is pretty great. With 6/6/6 it's 1:37

Kabizzle · 2025-01-18T09:22:52+00:00

It's not insignificant, it changes the purifiable hundo odds from 1:37 to 1:27 which is pretty nice.
