I wouldn’t consider it simple math, nor accurate math.
It is a bold statement that makes assumptions about underlying probabilities that are simply impossible to quantify realistically. Even more so as the theory was developed well before computers and human space exploration.
It is an intriguing thought experiment, but not an established scientific theory.
Answering your bosses mail, that the project cannot be done in the ridicolous time the marketing and sales team promised to the customer isn’t exactly an art specific to engineers.
the “art” of engineering only works out if you are solid on the basics and that means a good understanding of the relevant physics, chemistry, biology and math as well as the ability to quantify the whole thing with proper math.
I wonder how many of these are defederated from each other too.
Is it all unity among the nazi-pedos or are they fighting amongst each other?
