Does random have rules?
#11
RE: Does random have rules?
It's a very interesting subject. My intuition tells me that if we think it's random, it must be because we just don't understand it fully yet.

But as I've learned, QM and intuition really don't mix! So I tell my intuition to shut it.

You can't even apply very basic rules of probability, like if it's come up red 30 times in a row, it's virtually guaranteed to be black this time so sell your house and your kids and pile it all on. And always take a bomb with you onto a plane, because the chances of there being two bombs are much less! Also, avoid really unlikely lottery combinations like 1,2,3,4,5,6.

Big Grin Just having silly fun.

I need to learn more about QM, sadly my brain isn't up to it at present. God damn it's weird.
