If it just missed your head then you got lucky, imo.

I love smart women. God should have made more of them.

There is no future. And more importantly, there never was.

Won't be seeing Jack for a while. Got him locked up in a shed. No more going round doing stupid **** pretending to be me. Daisy, his girlfriend, is away too. She's an air hostess.

I was also thinking of me around the same time. Coincidence?

I am fairly sure I disproved the efficient market hypothesis tonight. Got paid $20 for doing so. Would have done it for free.

It's about patterns. Define the "simplicity" of a sequence to be the length of its shortest description, e.g. in English (or, more precisely, the length of a computer program that will output the sequence). For example:

111111111111... can be described as "all 1s";
121212121212... "alternating 1s and 2s".

A random sequence is one which cannot be condensed by a shorter description; i.e. the shortest way of describing it is to present the sequence in full.

Not that I don't appreciate the effort but don't bother. I have two mental blocks: Any math beyond geometry and physical puzzles. For everything else I'm a powerhouse of brain function, though.

I knew last card would get the gist. Well done. The depressing part, if you wish to call it that, is that a completely sober understand of the underlying principles of the linked article doesn't get you laid any more often that a gapped-toothed, bad smelling working class dock working. At least that would be DS's take on the matter. But he's been insane for years and his brain has been undergoing continual degenerative rot since it peaked at about 50 years. To be expected. Chez is fallowing the same path. Ruin is a collective.

Chez will keep himself vigilant with politics.

Full alert all the time, the brain will outgrow the skull before you'll know it. We will see the gyruses under a thin layer of skin, something like the aliens in the movies of the 1920's and 1950's

Chez, your brains will become powerhouses, ready for serving 2+2 and mankind! We will all suck in the energy, craving for more.

I once met Martin-Lof at a conference. He was super civilized and everyone deferred to him.

Quote:

In 1964 and 1965, Martin-Löf studied in Moscow under the supervision of Andrei N. Kolmogorov. He wrote a 1966 article On the definition of random sequences that gave the first suitable definition of a random sequence.
