No, the law of large numbers says that if you take lots of samples then the sample average will be very close to the underlying expected value, but it doesn't say that the underlying expected value of a binary valued random variable must be 0.5. To take a simple, albeit obviously pessimising, example, if we take two truly random uniform bit generators then we can combine them with bitwise AND to get a truly random bit generator with expected value 0.25.

There's plenty of corruption in Spanish politics, but it doesn't work by direct open donation. If a direct donation is made, it's in secret in a brown envelope. Alternatively, companies with a viewpoint to push might hire a company with connections to a politician to, say, produce and run their stand in an industry expo at a very generous rate.

Dude, the more I see what you write, the more I see that you are a know-nothing know-it-all. Ukrainian grain is generally exported to the middle east and Africa. Europe harvests more than enough grain. France alone can easily fulfill all European needs in this regard and France is nowhere near the sole cereal crop producer in Europe. For example, the EU supplies 25% of the world wheat exports - and that is excluding the domestic market. There are far more important reasons for Ukraine staying independent than this.

Comment The need for Cunts (Score 2) 163

Modern unions are not the same as the old unions.

Maybe they have to be as big a bunch of cunts as the cunts they go up against. Last time I checked cunts were ruling the world. We're seeing leaders with psychopathic characteristics, you're probably going to have to be a cunt just to go up against a more cunty set of cunts or the cunts will walk right over you.

The old unions fought the important battles, and their goals are mostly enshrined in law not just union contracts.

They died as well, for workers rights and human right and were used and deceived by another bunch of cunts. Some here have fought against unionization without the consideration that maybe, just maybe, people in tech who wanted to try would see these flaws and find a better way to outsmart the cunts. If only for the cunts amongst us, they may have succeeded.

Kennedy once said "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable"
loosely translated
"Cunts that make you be a cunt makes everyone have to be a cunt."
