Just because somebody is a Cambridge Uni lecturer it doesn't mean they're smart...wtf

RE: Just because somebody is a Cambridge Uni lecturer it doesn't mean they're smart.
First of all, it is true that working for Cambridge does not automatically make one correct.  But that is unimportant to the video.  You are watching a video made by idiots.  Their thinking is confused and muddled.  They do not properly define their supposed idea of "epistemic probability."  Giving an example is not giving a definition.  Basically, it seems that they just do not know what they are talking about, but are too stupid to know that.

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
