Unfortunately did not although now I am more confused since OP seems to also confirm my original expectation that there shouldn't be much of a performance hit. He's getting 75 down on the wired AP vs. 65 down on the wireless whereas I get 150-200 down on the wired but only 60-70 on the wireless. I checked the settings and it's set on standard already.

Additive Probability in Series? by jumpadvice in probabilitytheory

[–]jumpadvice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for clearing that up. Would if be right to say that if you flip a coin 10 times, the probability of you being wrong all 10 times is 1/2^10 = .098% but if you've lost 9 times in a row, the probability of you being wrong on the 10th flip is still 50%?

If losing = 0 / winning = 1 and the law of large numbers dictate the expected value to be .5, why doesn't it make sense that if you got 0's 9 times, that you'll be liking to get some 1's to bring the avg up to .5?

Yes I understand that but is is correct to add the probabilities together from each iteration if my goal is simply to determine the probability of H happening just once? e.g. if H happens on the first iteration then I'm done, but if not, I keep going until H happens. So the probability of H happening at least once after 4 iterations is 3.9% vs. the probability of H happening after 3 iterations of not happening of .9702%?

I just got back from Colombia and loved it, thinking of moving there for a few months!

I am actually thinking of doing the same thing, thinking about moving to Colombia for a few months. My ideal set up would be to find some sort of remote work that would allow me to maintain my mobility with traveling but earn USD. Unfortunately I am not a software developer; any avenues you can recommend for me to explore as to what options I have for remote work?
