An unknown factor is if you even get to make a second try at getting 100% if you already passed with 50% on the first test. If it is possible to redo a passed test, I still find it unlikely that anyone would do so given that they know that they don’t know the answers.
Including the edit that you’re not told which one was right in the first attempt with a 50% score, it makes a lot more sense to accept the first 50% pass. Choosing different answers for the second try would only give the maximum score of 50% again, while choosing completely random answers again would only give the same chance as the first attempt, in which 0% is still more likely than 100%
Similarly, if you do get 100% on the first attempt, why’d you want to try again… a lot of the answers here calculate the overall statistics when using both attempts regardless.
GPT-4 is a language model, and while it was an interesting take, it appears to be the wrong tool for the job.
The answer is wrong and without any documentation or proof showing the line of thought to determine the result it’s just a useless number.
Math is not really about the result. It is about understanding the process. Having an AI do that is completely against the purpose of asking this kind of questions in the first place. OP doesn’t need to know if the chance is 68% or 75%, but rather how to figure it out.
Yeah I mean, it obviously depends on your age and world wide location. Contemporary 70 y/o in Europe have a decent understanding of math and logic. It’s a narrow cut off though. My grand parents on my father’s side never touched a computer while my grandparents on my mother’s side were shitposting on Facebook on their cellphones.
They were the example of the difference between understanding running a Fergus’s tractor and Wndows 95, despite having less than a decade in age difference
I once had a teacher who told us to “Explain the curriculum to your grandmother. That’s when YOU get it.”
IMO ELI70 is somewhat better than ELI5 because it allows people to explain it without childish simplifications, but with the same challenge in comprehension.
They’re used in hotel restaurants, canteens, cafeteries etc. for making a uniform product when serving many people in a buffet.
It’s alright, I guess. Eggs are great for this kind of product.
It would be nice to save the plastic bag and just make actual scrambled eggs, which is about as difficult as opening the bag anyway. However in kitchens like in hotels where the staff is new every month, it’s an easy way to keep that dish from fucking up.
I was once at a 4 star hotel where a chef would cook each dish of scrambled eggs individually for each guest from a selection of additional ingredients and spices. Sure it was a luxury experience, but I could as well have eaten the bagged eggs and added some stuff myself if I actually needed mushrooms and peppers etc.
Like, if you’re gonna spend this amount of money or any amount of money on doing this, or any amount of time, fucking do it in a way that doesn’t rot in less than two weeks.
It probably looked great the day it was put up.
It’s London isn’t it? A crack user probably couldn’t afford to rent that plastic shed on top of a house.
