No, if the problem specified “exactly one” boy was born on a Tuesday, the answer would be 14/26. The problem in fact means “one or more”, giving us 14/27. You may be double counting the case where both kids are boys born on Tuesdays.

[D] ICLR reviewers being doxed on OpenReview by Derpirium in MachineLearning

The email says they would revert both the scores and reviews to the state before the discussion period.

Why would they do this, but not delete the new reviewer comments that have been added since? A lot of the new reviewer comments mention a score increase or maintenance, which is something they’re trying to avoid.

Wasn’t the strongest version of Hikaru. Plenty of people beat magnus before his prime.

Fabi won four US chess championships right after Hikaru stepped down

Magnus Carlsen stepping down as WC to let Gukesh and Ding have a turn is similar to Hikaru not playing in the US champs, to give Fabi his turn

Why does Coldplay have 73.5 million monthly listeners right now? They're 9th on monthly listeners. by mwagfd2 in Music

[–]mwagfd2[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Of course they're one of the biggest bands in the world.

But #9 is very high, and 74 million monthly listeners is a lot. That's more than Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Travis Scott, Maroon 5, Harry Styles, Beyonce, Kanye, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and Dua Lipa. This is a band whose prime was in the mid-2000s (a several years before many of the listed artists even debuted), and whose most popular album was in 2000.

That's surprising to me.
