| 1 | Female writer justifies the CC with "math"Yup. Decreasing SMV assumption leads to better strategies if you make your threshold lower than 37% It doesn't change the fact that for the hypothesis of the problem, 37% is a theorem proof and not just some "math" or "pseudo-statistical answer" | /r/TheRedPill | 23/02/16 03:16 AM |
| 1 | Female writer justifies the CC with "math"As a side note, if you replace the set of all men she meets with the set of all men she will be able to date (and keep), then most of the assumption problems go away Of course, this adds a layer of difficulty (as you can't really know for certain in advance who is in your pool and who isn't, but it's guessable) and doesn't remove the assumption that the goal is to find the very best man possible (once again, the best man in the pool of all men she will be able to date and keep) Edit : Amusing, a… | /r/TheRedPill | 23/02/16 12:01 AM |
| 2 | Female writer justifies the CC with "math"The mathematical context is the following You are going to be presented N objects (suitors in this case) one after the other each with different values At any point, you can say "Stop" and pick the object in front of you and that's it (no getting an object that you passed before) Your goal is to maximize the chance to get the best object The optimal strategy is to outright reject the first 37% of N, then pick the first object that was better than the best out of the 37% So, the journalist adapte… | /r/TheRedPill | 22/02/16 11:42 PM |
| 26 | Female writer justifies the CC with "math"This is beyond retarded. And not the article. It's a well known mathematical problem (studied out of any agenda context, as you can see here and here) It is a usual part of the game theory track for fuck's sake. The secretary problem was apparently introduced in 1949 by Merrill M. Flood, who called it the fiancée problem in a lecture he gave that year. He referred to it several times during the 1950s, for example in a conference talk at Purdue on 9 May 1958, and it eventually became widely known… | /r/TheRedPill | 22/02/16 06:54 PM |
