The same company that gave out free baby formular to poor African families and then, after a couple of months, went "nuh-uh you now have to pay so your babies don't die lol"? Surprising.
American cheese often does contain actual cheddar. It's basically a cheese blend that is mixed together with sodium citrate. I live in Germany and American cheese cannot be sold as "cheese" here, the industry usually calls it "Sandwichscheiben", but maybe Switzerland is less strict.
I had amblyopia as a kid because one of my eye muscles didn't develop properly, so there was an imbalance leading to a lazy eye. I had to get surgery to correct that, but it was past the time window when proper depth perception is developed (until about 7 years of age, got my surgery with 9). So yeah, my vision is kinda like yours.
Even with the lazy eye gone, I also only use my stronger eye to look through binoculars, dunno why. But I'm myopic in the right eye and hyperopic in the left, so maybe that has something to do with it.
The probability of 2 people having the same birthday is 1 in 365 because it's the same as picking person A's birthday as a specific day in the year and checking whether person B has their birthday on that date.
Now, the reason the number is so low is that you are basically comparing pairs and with 23 people there are 253 different pairings (23 choose 2 or 22*23/2). With each pair having a 1/365 chance to have the same birthday and having 253 distinct pairs, you would have to fail a 1/365 check 253 times in a row. The formula you can use for the success rate is 1 - (1-p)^x with p being the probability and x the number of trials, so in this case
1 - (1 - 1/365)^253 = 0.5004
In essence, the unintuitive part of the "paradox" is how fast the number of possible pairs grows the more people you add.
This reminds me of Black & White, the god simulation game from, idk, the early 2000s. They had a list of common names and if your save profile matched one, a creepy voice would call you from time to time.
Rookie mistake. The best way to procrastinate is to set everything up so you could work on it and then not do it. What's the fun in procrastination when not actively defying work?
Probably just because it's prime. It's just that humans are terrible at understanding the concept of randomness. A study by Theodore P. Hill showed that when tasked to pick a random number between 1 and 10, almost a third of the subjects (n was over 8500) picked 7. 10 was the least picked number (if you ditch the few idiots that picked 0).
Egypt closed the border indefinitely. So no, there will be no help coming from Egypt "before it gets catastrophic". The reason for that is that Israel shelled the border again. Article here
Hamas is the foster child of Netanyahu and his ilk. They have been funding Hamas for a long time because it keeps the Palestinian Authority down. Article here
