| Feb 12, 2019 at 3:11 | comment | added | Matthew Gunn | If all chocolates are dark, how is it possible to observe a chocolate that isn't dark? What's the probability of drawing a red ball from an urn given that 50% of the (otherwise identical) balls are red? (In your formulation, is "black chocolate" the same as "dark chocolate?") | |
