Neither of those options seem nice to me. So.,… I wouldn’t ask them that.
Do you know the difference between 5 of 5 and 1 of 1?
I can guess what they might mean in certain circumstances, but I don’t know what YOU mean by them. You use words in a very unpredictable way.
Ehem, from the sidelines, I never have any trouble following the way he uses words. Just for the record.
Right, so when he uses HT to mean, specifically one Heads followed by one Tails, and then later uses HT to mean HT and TH and TT, you didn’t have any trouble following that?
LOL, you are so dishonest it is laughable.
Ever get 5 boxes, and they are labeled 1 of 5, 2 of 5, 3 of 5, 4 of 5, and 5 of 5?
No, I didn’t have any trouble following that. He explained it very clearly and competently in a way that has nothing to do with the travesty of a paraphrase you just attempted.
5 of 5 sometimes means “all 5 in the group of 5”. So clarity is important.
Well then you should be able to clarify for me - when he asks about the 5th of 5 flips, is he talking about 1 flip?
Do you understand now that I gave you the boxes example?
We already answered this, therefore suspect continued and conscious dishonesty.
So we decline to answer, danke.
I understand that for the time being, you mean one thing by it - but I’m fully expecting some kind of rug pull later, given how often you shift meanings around.
I would prefer the phrase “the fifth of 5” rather than “5 of 5” - that’s a lot less ambiguous
You did not answer it.
I have found his meanings to be perfectly consistent.
Carleas and I both took HT to mean specifically HT - especially given that we had just got done clarifying how different permutations are to be treated separately. So going straight from that to him deciding HT means HT and TH and TT is… really not clear.
I don’t think you’re being truthful.
It was very clear and cleanly laid out, not the way you are maliciously paraphrasing it now.
So yes, I did have no trouble following and found all the meanings tight and consistent.
Ok, the fifth of 5. Same as 5 of 5, but have it your way.
So you do realize that the “fifth of 5” flips is not the same as “the first of 1 flip” right?
It wasn’t laid out, he did it quietly without telling anyone, and didn’t start even atempting to make it clear until way later.
I didn’t find it that way.
I found myself following along to what he said with little trouble.
Actually, in a way, it kinda is. How we group flips is kinda arbitrary. When you pick up a coin and flip it once, it’s “the first of 1 flip”, right? But you have no idea what’s in the history of that coin, it could ALSO be the millionth flip of that coin’s life.
