    I won a lot of money at video poker....that’s because I was the owner of the machines. Sometimes there were large payouts...but in the end...we won. Nevertheless, most patrons enjoyed themselves. The addicted were a nuisance....always wanting credit. If you didn’t give it, nasty things could happen. Fortunately, this was pretty rare. I enjoy playing video poker, but always take a fixed amount to play with. When it’s gone , I left. If I won, I would buy dinner and leave. Make no mistake, there are runs of bad luck for both the house and the players. If the house doesn’t manage the money properly or there is insufficient patronage, they can go broke. It happened to a friend of mine.

    What's scary about it ? I was using the Smith Chart when I was in high school - years before I went to engineering school. Very handy tool working with rf and reactive impedances. (in the 1940s and 50s we didn't have cellphones, pocket calculators or desktop computers) - Slide rules and Smith Charts made a lot of engineering calculations so much easier.

    As Human beings, we live in a 3D world. We do NOT understand 2D and we don't understand 4D. IN FACT, a 2D square doesn't exist. What you see , is a 3D. It has 2 sides and the height. A square does NOT have an area ! The area exists only in math. Example. When you print a red square on a white page, if that would be a 2D , we wouldn't see the square, we would only see 2 sides

    The paradox, if i'm understanding correctly, is that if we assume 3oaK to be the higher ranked hand, that will cause players to interpret all hands containing one pair+joker as 3oaK (rather than 2 pair), which flips the order of scarcity. The thing is though... so what? We should allow that scarcity order to be flipped, because that is not the order that matters. The only thing that matters is the scarcity in our *opportunity* to make a hand from a well shuffled deck, not the scarcity in outcomes post-interpretation. If 2 pair becomes scarce only *because* we choose to discard it, that tells us nothing about how difficult it is to construct that hand from a well shuffled deck, which is the measure that should be tied to ranking. It is always harder to construct 3oaK than 2 pair from a well shuffled deck, even with a joker, so that is the hand that should rank higher.

    Topologists and Set Theorists don't dip their donuts in their coffee. The Topologist says it is because 'they are the same thing'. The Set Theorist says it is because they agree with the Topologist, and that to do so would be 'not well founded' because the same set can't include itself.

    "If a signal travels at the speed oflight through a cable,..." the guy starts out saying, as though that were conceivable. The fact is, electrons drift through cables at a few dozens of miles an hour, and the shock-wave between electrons -- the "information" -- travels at a speed which varies depending on the material and the temperature, and is never more than some fraction of "the speed of light." Even light doesn't travel at the speed of light -- anywhere. It's probably better to think of that speed, c, as "a theoretical speed of causality," which you are never going to witness in reality.

    BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. Gravity/acceleration involves what is balanced inertia. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, as the stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. The fourth dimension AND conservation of energy are consistent with what is E=MC2. Consider TIME AND time dilation ON BALANCE. Frank Martin DiMeglio is correct that THE FOURTH dimension, that stars and planets are points in the night sky, is consistent with the coronal heating “problem”. Great. TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual ON/IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is CLEARLY AND NECESSARILY proven to be gravity (ON/IN BALANCE). Consider what is THE EYE ON BALANCE. Excellent !!!! Consider what is the BLUE sky. Indeed, consider what is complete combustion AND WHAT IS E=MC2. Great. By Frank Martin DiMeglio

    wow , the length of a point is zero , and the length of 2 separate points is also zero and so on. So there are an infinite number of unconnected points in the cantor set ? And therefore only connected points (whatever that means) have length ? Also a point is zero Dimensional so that a point times N = 0 size but N in number of points ?

    The main thing I've learned studying math is that sometimes people just don't explain things properly. In fact, often no explanation is given at all! You just need to look somewhere else (other textbook, UA-cam, etc.) to find it. Also, if multiple textbooks are available (and they usually are), it's worth finding one you actually like, since you're going to be spending a lot of time with it.
