This makes sense. And I can see how to apply when you add more dice with different probability.

... however, when I did that math, I ended up with 87.04%

1-((1-.64) x (1-.4) x (1-.4)) = x

1-(.36 x .6 x .6) = x

1-.1296 = .8704

87.04% chance to get 2 winning dice

Hold up. Something seems off with this.

I tried calculating the probability of landing 2 losing side by using the same method and it doesn't add up

.2 x .2 = .04

.2 x .5 = .1

.2 x .5 = .1

1-((1-.04) x (1-.1) x (1-.1) = x

1-(.96 x .9 x .9) = x

1-.7776 = .2224

22.24% chance to have 2 losing dice.

But 87.04+22.24 = 109.28%

You would think that adding the winning combinations to the losing combinations would be 100%

What am I missing

    I can't seem to wrap my head around how to calculate this, nor the reasoning behind it.

    Say you have 3 10-sided dice. 2 dice have 8 "winning" faces and 2 "losing" faces. So an 80% chance of winning. The third dice has 5 "winning" and 5 "losing" sides, so a 50% chance of winning.

    If you roll all three of these dice at the same time:

    -What is the probability of at least 1 dice winning.

    -What is the probability of at least 2 dice winning.

    -What is the probability of all 3 winning.

    From what I've seen I can calculate the probability of all 3 winning by doing:

    0.8 x 0.8 x 0.5=0.32

    A 32% chance of all 3 winning at the same time.

    But what about the others, I can't seem to figure it out.

    This work revolutionized art for generations. It was instrumental in changing the way people imagined badgers, mushrooms, and snakes. Many modern works of art's influence can be traced back to this monumental piece.

    I was thinking more like Psycho Pass. The AI is its own entity, living in reality, doing the AI things that it was made to do, it's just its processing power is a bunch of human brains linked together.

    I'm being increasingly convinced that when we do develop true AI, it'll actually be just a massive array of interconnected human brains in a secret facility somewhere.

    If it helps at all, I didn't spend my younger years drinking, and I'm still considered friends with most of the people I made friends with in my 20's. However, I almost never see and/or talk them anymore, just because life gets busy, and it becomes harder to maintain contact. It's still hard for me to find new friends and people to hang out with. I believe that particular struggle is a pretty shared experience regardless of what our younger selves did. It's entirely possible that even if you didn't spend your younger days drinking, that "friend circle" would be just as absent as it is now.

    I think you're doing great, and the advice of going to the gym and finding a hobby is great advice for yourself too, that's how I met the friends I have now. it's a great way to find people who are busy with life, but have made time in their life for their hobby, and you can share that time with them, and badda bing badda boom, friendship.

    zombo.com was launched in 1999. I remember in high school you'd see the new fancy web kiosk's the school put up just displaying it as a joke. and being locked out of the address bar so you couldn't change it. The fact that this url has been renewed, maintained, and updated with all the advancements web browsers have made in the last 24 years, just to have this useless site still exist amuses me to no end.
