You know how many cards there are in a deck?
People can shuffle them into a random order and then memorise the order, so it’s really not that many cards.
Each time you shuffle the deck it’s the same familiar cards, we can easily recognise and differentiate every card in the deck.
But how many different ways are there to arrange that deck of cards? How many possible combinations?
More than there are stars in the sky. Every shuffle is unique.
I love my job because I get to use familiar ideas to help people make sense of their own unique shuffle 😊

It frustrates me beyond words that we can’t even get 51% of Americans to agree on something like this, which I think is so obvious. But, that’s where we are as a country. I suppose I need to have enough wisdom to accept that.
Said every American on every issue ever.


Had this problem for a the last three months. Tested hard drives, memory and everything else.
Turned out to be a PSU with an intermittent issue where it would drop voltage. Very annoying!


Same here. I’m just you under another user name.


Probably regardless of which part of him was showing
What’s next from Ofwat?
