"Of three cards, one is painted red on both sides; one is painted black on both sides; and one is painted red on one side and black on the other. A card is randomly chosen and placed on a table. If the side facing up is read, what is the probability that the other side is also red?"
So at first I think that if you are looking at a red side, then it can be only one of two cards, so 1/2 is the probability.
Is this right? This seems like a deceptive question.
2/3.
It's a paradox.

I don't get it. Explain, please.
I meant 1/3, whoops...
I still don't get it.

No you didn't.
I'm pretty sure she did.
Edit: I'm reading the question as, "What are the chances that I've picked the card with red/red on both sides if I randomly chose from those three cards", which is 1/3.

It was funny in that it was a smart self-parody of American "manliness."
The post-KC version was awful in that it actually celebrated/perpetuated hypermasculinity instead of pointing out how childish it is.
Hunh. What I've seen of it appeared to be pretty stupid and mainly about breasts, but I've never seen enough to tell if it that was intentionally stupid and hence funny.

I think you are the only guy I know that actually understood it was a parody.
I must confess, I'd generally just tune into the credits for that show. I think there was something better on in the time slot back when it aired anyway.

Now I have a lecture; bye chat.
It's two completely different shows depending on who the hosts were.
If the theme song was a polka band, then it was awesome.

Its 1/2.
You start with a pool of three cards. After the first one is pulled, and its red, you completely discount the all black card. There are two possible cards left, and one of those possible cards has red on the bottom.
The only thing I remember about the Man Show is that one guy got to spin the wheel thing and then due to the results he got to bang a porn star in a van or something? I dunno.

1/2
No, no. You've made the same mistake that I did.
You have a 1/3 chance of drawing the red/black card, but a 1/2 chance of flipping it red side up. If you flipped the black side up, then you wouldn't be in that case.
Whereas there's a 1/3 chance of drawing the red/red card, but a 100% chance of flipping it red side up.

But now it late and MAN THREAD quiet.
2/3.
It's a paradox.
I responded to something LondonBridge said once. That pretty much salted the earth.
So i'm watching Entourage (my favorite show) and they played a song from The Rules of Attraction (my favorite movie)
it's a relatively obscure soundtrack piece that the two now share! Along with my
goodnight again [chat].
I don't get it. Explain, please.
Don't make me make you have a good night.
I have a zombie themed phalla coming up soon. You'll be playing yes?
I'm sure there'll be five pages to read through by this time tomorrow.
Though it's not really a man thread per se, it's more about (admittedly stupid) stereotypes.
I meant 1/3, whoops...
I still don't get it.
I would totally endorse a thread about The Man Show.
The Kimmel/Carolla version. Not the bad/stupid version.
No you didn't.
Tell my wife I said...hello.
That show's actually funny? I thought it was about boobs.
GOOD MORNING [CHAT]!
It was beyond stupid.
I'm pretty sure she did.
Edit: I'm reading the question as, "What are the chances that I've picked the card with red/red on both sides if I randomly chose from those three cards", which is 1/3.
Well I'm pretty sure she didn't.
It was funny in that it was a smart self-parody of American "manliness."
The post-KC version was awful in that it actually celebrated/perpetuated hypermasculinity instead of pointing out how childish it is.
Morning Bob!
I think you are the only guy I know that actually understood it was a parody.
But it loses its thread
Ooh, what area/period did you focus on?
Hunh. What I've seen of it appeared to be pretty stupid and mainly about breasts, but I've never seen enough to tell if it that was intentionally stupid and hence funny.
Now I have a lecture; bye chat.
I knew I was in trouble when I started at Boston College and everybody insisted that Joe Rogan was so much funnier than the other guys.
I must confess, I'd generally just tune into the credits for that show. I think there was something better on in the time slot back when it aired anyway.
I'm pretty sure it's not the Monty Hall problem.
Hold on, let's do the tables.
Facing up/down:
Chances of drawing black/black: 1/3
Chances of drawing red/black: 1/6
Chances of drawing black/red: 1/6
Chances of drawing red/red: 1/3
Oh crap.
2/3.
Fine. You win. :P
It's two completely different shows depending on who the hosts were.
If the theme song was a polka band, then it was awesome.
Otherwise, yeah. Big fake boobs.
I think I said this earlier today, but this one.

well, there were big fake boobs in both shows.
But it loses its thread
Yes, but in the second version they actually hosted the show.
:P
Its 1/2.
You start with a pool of three cards. After the first one is pulled, and its red, you completely discount the all black card. There are two possible cards left, and one of those possible cards has red on the bottom.
1/2

I sure never caught on to that. I thought it was just the former.
No, no. You've made the same mistake that I did.
You have a 1/3 chance of drawing the red/black card, but a 1/2 chance of flipping it red side up. If you flipped the black side up, then you wouldn't be in that case.
Whereas there's a 1/3 chance of drawing the red/red card, but a 100% chance of flipping it red side up.
So 2/3 in favour of red/red.
