Some Surprising Things
“Normal” turns out to be a slippery label: averages mislead, “where you were born” isn’t a fixed place, and even probability can make intuition fail....
The Most Controversial Problem in Philosophy
A single coin flip, paired with memory loss, forces a choice between two equally defensible probability answers—one that treats waking as irrelevant...
The quick proof of Bayes' theorem
Bayes’ theorem can be justified with a short, purely mathematical identity built from how “AND” works in probability. For two events, A and B, the...
What are the Odds of Dying an Unfortunate Death?
The central takeaway is that “where the bullet holes are” can mislead: most planes returning with damage show hits in wings and fewer in engines, but...
Probability Theory 21 | Conditional Expectation (given events)
Conditional expectation given an event is built by reweighting probabilities so that only outcomes inside the conditioning event matter. If an event...
Probability Theory 8 | Bayes's Theorem and Total Probability
Bayes’s theorem and the law of total probability are derived from one simple idea: conditional probability is built from intersections. Starting with...
Probability Theory 9 | Independence for Events [dark version]
Independence in probability is the idea that learning one event gives no information about how likely another event is. Formally, event B should not...
Probability Theory 21 | Conditional Expectation (given events) [dark version]
Conditional expectation given an event is built by reweighting probabilities to focus only on outcomes inside that event. Start with conditional...
Probability Theory 8 | Bayes's Theorem and Total Probability [dark version]
Bayes’s theorem and the law of total probability are presented as two linked tools for turning conditional information into an overall...
