I manage a drug-testing program for an organization with 400 employees. Every three months, a random-number generator selects 100 names for testing. Afterward, these names go back into the selection pool. Obviously, the probability of an employee being chosen in one quarter is 25 percent. But what is the likelihood of being chosen over the course of a year?

Her response was:

The probability remains 25 percent, despite the repeated testing. One might think that as the number of tests grows, the likelihood of being chosen increases, but as long as the size of the pool remains the same, so does the probability. Goes against your intuition, doesn't it?

That's 220?

To not get selected, you need to avoid selection 4 times in a row. The chance to get selected is 100% minus 75%^4 = around 68.36%

No, that one is about previous failures supposedly increasing probability of success on subsequent attempts. Here it is just an "at least" problem. Pretty straightforward.

She means per single test. She thought you were implying that if you get chosen once, the probability to get chosen again decreases. Her argument is basically that consecutive trials are independent.
Sorry, but you jumped to conclusions like a low-IQ person and she handed it to you.

Listen, mam, I asked you a clear and specific question:
>Obviously, the probability of an employee being chosen in one quarter is 25 percent. But what is the likelihood of being chosen over the course of a year?

And your reply was "per single test"?

>Koko was administered several infant IQ tests, including the Cattell Infant Intelligence Scale and form B of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test. She achieved scores in the 70–90 range, which is comparable to a human infant that is slow but not intellectually impaired.
Wow! She has an infant IQ of 70-90! So smart compared to those dumb Somalians who were probably measured on an adult IQ test!

Is this fucker supposed to be smart? Do the bare minimum of research, dumbass.

>> No.10998601

Honestly, why are we even talking about this? She's obviously a fraud. The 228 score was measured with via mental age. She once took an actual "standardised" test and scored 175 (52 points is the difference between a retard and the average really smart guy). The psychometrician who administered the first test protested the statistical IQ test, because he didn't understand the central limit theorem. No IQ above 160 on sd=50 is actually scored. They're only estimates. Just do the math (CDF for 228 with 15 or even 16 standard deviation). The probability of one person surpassing even 200 is absurdly low. The fact that people actually believe multiple pseuds claiming a higher score than that infuriates me. I'd say she's 130 at best

A meme is a mind virus.
Formal def. :Meme, unit of cultural information spread by imitation. The term meme (from the Greek mimema, meaning “imitated”) was introduced in 1976 by British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his work The Selfish Gene.
For referent: one of the most successful memes in history is “treat others as you would be treated”
