Pardon my ignorance on this subject, but might that be Zelda I see?

Zelda: LTTP for SNES.

I approve very much of this. In fact, I do hope to make a post of myself succeeding at beating another different but also old game but preparation is required and I'll devote some time to studying my actual homework before attempting that. Wink

Worked out yesterday, then ate donuts and a burger today.

1+(-1)=0

Did my photo shoot today, got all my exposures and I'm excited to develop. I'm really nervous that they didn't shoot right or weren't in focus. It's so difficult to get all this perfect without seeing a preview, oh well. In the boy department I'm just really trying to keep myself on a slow track and not make a mistake or some pomegranate ugh.

Sooooooo.....I got the Microsoft Representative Position at Cornell. I'm somewhat excited, but huh, not looking forward to promoting Windows 8, ha ha.

You may have a difficult task there. Goggleemoticon

Day just started...showered before 11. A.k.a. off to a good start, haha.

Today has just been a very weird off day for me and I don't know why. I bitched out my manager, today wasn't the day to push me about pomegranate I've been fighting since I started this job. Went to a flowers shoppe down the road and spoke about what I should do job wise, they suggest I put together a portfolio and try working with fresh flowers. If I'm real serious I should try a floral design academy in Austin to get certified. I still feel weird or moody I don't even know what's up, it's not boy related things there are going fine even though I over think the smallest things. I should probably do my Cal homework but I keep putting it off. UUUUUUUugggggGGghhHHhhhhh what is wrong with me today?

Arguing with my brother for 3 hours about the Monty Hall Problem is not my idea of fun.

It is when both of you are stoned.

It hurts. It really hurts.

I even coded the Monty Hall Problem in Python and it still didn't convince him when the odds came out 0.66 in favor of switching every time. He chalked it up to, "I don't know enough about programming to say whether that's right or not."

I even went through great pains to make it as simple as I could.

Sad

Code:
import random
import copy

car_win_rate = 0
total_number_games = 0

possibilities = ['car', 'goat', 'goat']
random.shuffle(possibilities)

for i in xrange(1000):

    #Playing a new game of Monty Hall!
    total_number_games += 1
    print("Number games: %d" % (total_number_games))

    #Copy possibilities into the doors
    doors = copy.copy(possibilities)
    print("Doors begin: %s" % (doors))

    #Pick a number such that 0 <= x <= 2
    choice = random.randint(0, 2)
    print("Choice: %d" % (choice))

    #Remember the kind of choice we got
    choiceType = doors[choice]
    print("choiceType: %s" % (choiceType))

    #Remove a goat
    doors.remove('goat')
    print("Doors after removing goat: %s" % (doors))    

    #Just in case the index gets screwed up...
    #(i.e. we choose 2 and remove a goat, making the length of the array 2,
    #which would cause out of bounds)
    choice = doors.index(choiceType)
    print("New choice: %d" % (choice))

    #Always switch my choice regardless of what happens
    if choice == 1:
        choice = 0
    elif choice == 0:
        choice = 1

    print("Flipped choice: %d" % (choice))
    print("Choice result: %s" % (doors[choice]))

    #Did I get a car?
    if doors[choice] == 'car':
        #I win!
        car_win_rate += 1
        print("Car win rate: %d" % (car_win_rate))
    print("")
print(car_win_rate)
print("Win Rate: %0.2f" % (float(car_win_rate) / float(total_number_games)))

He said, "It should be 50% chance to get a goat. No matter what you choose in your first choice, you will always come out with a car and a goat. So your first choice doesn't matter. So since you only have a car and a goat left, that means 50/50 to get a car or a goat."

I tried to explain to him that you have a 2/3 chance of picking a goat your first try, and if you pick a goat and switch you will always get the car. He wouldn't hear it.

Did you ever consider that you had this conversation in the Matrix and your brother is really a loop program.

Discussed dissertation advisory committees with my therapist (he has a PhD). Sounds fun.


How was your day? - FrozNlite - 2013-01-22

Yesterday was really fun. Great friend of mine is finally back after being gone in California all of last semester, and so we and our group of friends celebrated her return and MLK Day with "wizard staffs" (when you finish a beer you duct tape it vertically to your previous can, creating a staff after a while), Settlers of Cattan, upside-down Mario Kart 64, then later some weed and Doctor Who.

Today was not so fun. Classes started, which was great and exciting knowing I'm finally starting my last undergraduate semester, but public transportation + city planning BS + rush hour = a not so fun afternoon spending 2.5 hours to get a fucking shirt I need for work, and, of course, "feels like -18" is never cool. Pun intended.

First day of class- 3D Design.
First project is to make a wire sculpture. Sounds interesting enough.

Spent the day with my aunt. Came back, check my mailbox...and package from boyfriend has arrived ^-^

His hoodie, a cd of a band I like, and nice chocolate.

It's kinda nice having Christmas->my birthday (Jan. 21)-> valentines day consistent with each other.

The day was alright, did my cal homework and watched FMA and went to class. There was a shooting at another Lone Star campus, so I had a lot of people messaging me. I felt rather weird after I found out, news spread real quick but so far as I know things are good now. Overall a fine day.
