Interesting - it's illegal to throw darts underhand in official competitions. Does anyone know why?
Decided to take Christopher up on his proposal and I like the results. Here are my 2024 Top 5 Mocks using the method below: 1. @ChrisTrapasso - CBS Sports 2. @1TimMurray - VSIN 3. Alpha Football (mock from 3/20!) 4. @Danny_Heifetz - The Ringer 5. @4WhomJBellTolls - Football Guys

They should start a service where you can watch your favorite team in your home
There's someone on Audible who has published over 3000 audiobooks in the last 10 days - all written by AI and all narrated by AI.
I don't remember if I already shared this, but Klaas Landsman has written a very nice book on the #mathematics of #GeneralRelativity and published it as open access. You can buy or freely download the book from library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.… #OpenAcces
@octonion You can also view this problem as randomly killing a person in the circle, with an immunity wave travelling at an average speed of 1.5 people per turn so in the asymptotic limit i->∞ the probability tends to an expression of the form pᵢⱼ -1/i ∝ sin(2π(j-3i/2)+φ)
It'd be interesting if twice the number of electrons in the universe (to account for positrons) times the estimated lifespan of the universe was roughly equal to the proposed half-life of an electron, but the math doesn't work out.
An interesting variation of Zeno's arrow paradox is to assume space is discrete, and then ask how the arrow "knows" to move from one location to the next. But that's getting close to asking questions like how electrons all "know" to have the same charge.
Infinite regress paradoxes in philosophy, while superficially similar to Zeno's paradoxes, seem much more sophisticated to me.
Zeno's arrow paradox seems particularly weak, as it's implicitly assuming that the only attribute an arrow has at any particular moment is position. Of course, it also has attributes such as velocity and acceleration. Isn't that the simplest resolution?
Since this topic is creating a lot of discussion now: one example of this extreme discipline is what Black orgs in the 60s called "tolerance trainings." They'd train protesters through simulations of racist harassment until they developed the self-control not to react violently.

Here's my code for the random Josephus problem. Written in Sage, but it's essentially Python if you don't care about exact calculations. github.com/octonion/puzzl…
Branded editions of the Münchhausen trilemma.
Today I gave a tutorial about one of my favorite subjects, automatic differentiation. Cause everyone wants to do deep learning but no one wants to get down and dirty computing gradients. Unless maybe you do? gdalle.github.io/AutodiffTutori…
It seems really counterintuitive to me that for the random Josephus problem with 9 people you should stand in position 8 to maximize your survival probability. Or position 25 with 27 people.
Looks like we have multiple new sequences for the OEIS. Search: seq:2,4,10,28,78,215,590 Sorry, but the terms do not match anything in the table.
To answer my original question, highest survival occurs at position 13 with 41 people (!). p = 29652059411208942631142072353681690290636695207/815915283247897734345611269596115894272000000000 p ~ 0.0363420811204487

What you really want to use is some type of nonparametric correlation between the predicted and actual ranks. Even better, you should account for getting the top picks right as far more valuable than getting the bottom picks right. Something like a weighted Spearman.
From our NFL Draft coverage: Thanks to a tip from @TomPelissero, we stumped the truck!
kind of weird / basic thought: once you move from graphs to weighted graphs, the notion of an 'edge' almost disappears, in the sense that the question just becomes "how much of an edge is there?" (which is understandably a more robust notion, in some ways).
