There are MANY videos on #YouTube explaining the so-called "Monty Hall" paradox, some diving deeply into fairly complicated probability math.

The paradox is traced back to the very long-running "Let's Make a Deal" game show, hosted for many, many years by Monty Hall.

The paradox involves the prospect of staying with your choice of one of three doors that might contain the grand prize, or switching to another of the three doors once you're shown that one of the doors you didn't choose doesn't contain the prize.

While most people assume that staying with their current pick is a reasonable choice, the math says that you should actually (for best results in the long run) switch to the other available door. It's really quite a non-intuitive probability puzzle.

The irony is that Monty when asked about the paradox consistently insisted that the show never actually offered contestants the choice to switch doors, and that the paradox was actually based on a "what if" postulation not the actual procedure on the show!

#ASUS is scamming their customers claiming warranty repairs. I wonder how many people just pay up to this ransom tactic.
So glad I got the #SteamDeck.

Yesterday I met a very smart friend, a data scientist / mathematician. We talked a lot about energy consumption, society and #ourWorldInData. Looking at my notes I realize that I owe him a link to the brilliant and uplifting talk “The Magic Washing Machine” by the wonderful presenter #HansRosling of #Gapminder.
So if you’d like to watch something interesting and positive for your sunday afternoon, I suggest to watch this.
