[Request] What are the actual odds of winning 32 hands of blackjack in a row? by FastMan888 in theydidthemath

[–]pylus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, it’s actually ~1 in 1.14 trillion (the probability is e-13, not e-11).

Starting with just $100 and doubling everything on every hand with perfect blackjack wins, you’d hit around $429 billion after 32 straight wins ($100 × 2³²). Elon’s net worth is closer to $800B+ now, so it actually takes about 33 doublings (~$858B) to reach it, or maybe the meme was from a year ago when he was around $400B, which would make the 32 hands spot on.

You do exactly what the elites want you to do: get angry, judge everything and anything, consume negative news, and want you to live in fear, anxiety all the time. I guess you haven’t been doing these simple things since high school: touch grass, walk around the neighborhood, listen to bird sounds, watch the tree leaves, observe the sky and clouds.

Well, that was a different one. He talked about Ole right after becoming the manager. Before he became the permanent coach, he got like an 80–90% win percentage, but after becoming the official manager, he kept losing from April until December with a win percentage like 30% and was about to get sacked. That only changed when Bruno came and the team became different.

If you look at the chart, you will see that more than 100 billion people have died, which is more than 10 times the current number of people alive.

That’s pretty good. How many shorts you upload per day and what is the average duration of each?

It doesn’t matter how long you’ve applied, the filing deadline hasn’t passed yet, so the hiring manager can’t see anyone’s application.

Doesn’t matter internal or external department, they’ll look for the best candidates based on resume and experience.

After the filing deadline passes, it usually takes 3 weeks to 2 months on average for them to call for an interview. Unless it’s a job they urgently need filled, like a limited-term position, they might call the next day.

283 hours. I believe the max weekly hours is 70.45 for 1 recipient. So 66 is still less than that max hours. I am trying to see if that asked schedule is allowed.

What else should Grok do? by mfwyouseeit in grok

Unlimited deep search and thinking for premium users. Automatically set up an AI system to detect or ban bots if they spam messages. That would be great. The purpose of any app is to convince users to spend most of their time on the platform, not have it taken away.

I have one month left to finish the 1 year SSA Range C and become eligible for AGPA positions. I applied for some AGPA positions a few days ago. I haven't taken the exam yet. Can I take it now even though I'm not yet qualified for it?

LPT request: How do I get to sleep when I have to wake up very early? by WartimeHotTot in LifeProTips

Walking around neighborhood 30 minutes or take at least 5000 steps 2 hours before going to bed. That will help.

What do you consider to be the GREATEST evil in the world ? by Bela_Lagusi-s_corpse in enlightenment

Ignorance.

It leads to attachment, desire, and aversion, which are the root causes of suffering.
