I don’t think that the cause of this is completely understood, but CO2 is a potent vasodilator. I’ve seen hatha yoga (physical yoga) practioners ditch hatha for prana-yoga (breath yoga) because they said it's a more powerful way to get to wherever yoga takes you.
It would be a better analogy if they had actually revealed anything, instead of just saying that they had. This was more like telling us which door had a car behind it and trusting us to believe them.
You’re right. I forgot that you had to tell him which door you wanted to open (instead of just saying that you've decided on a door - like the FBI as just SAID that they've cracked the iPhone5). But it doesn’t matter because Monty was always going to open one of the two goat doors, and the one that he opens doesn’t matter to the 1/3 probability that you picked the car door. Your probability of getting the car ALWAYS doubles when you switch (even though you still may not get it).
Well, Monty doesn't know (or care about) your choice. He's 'constrained' by the fact that his 'probability' is 100%: he knows where the goats and car are.
It amazing how many people still don’t get the Monty Hall problem. Its lesson is that the probabilities do NOT change – until we make a choice!. That’s why it’s better to switch once we see the goat behind door 1. The probability of our having made a good choice, initially (1 in 3), has NOT changed even though there are now only two ‘choices’. But they are not REALLY choices because we’ve ALREADY chosen. The probability can only change if we make a NEW choice, because the ‘probability’ that we’re discussing is the probability that our choice, at the time it was made, would produce a result that we wanted. The iPhone 5 is clearly no less secure now than it was then. But we can switch.
I think Waterpiks are better for dental health than toothbrushes and floss combined (although I use ‘em all). They’re basically small-scale pressure washers that obliterate bacterial biofilms, which are the real cause of tooth decay and gum disease and bad breath. Your mouth feels a different kind of clean after 2 minutes with one of these things.
I'm sure that this a wonderful book, but please note the error right off the bat in equation 1.3 The tangent of the angle in question is b/a NOT a/b as stated. Probably a good idea to keep an sharp eye on the math as you go along in this thing.
