Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
200,000 chimpanzees is = to zero monkeys. The study is flawed.
No. The expected value is that they wont but u can theoreticly "get lucky" having the random event occur at any point during the proccess of random events.
Tldr we wouldnt expect it but its still possible.
The probability that a monkey would throw its shit against the wall and have it look exactly like Shakespeare is, on the other hand, extremely likely in our lifetime.
insane that THIS gets headlines which is literally just recording a monkey with a keyboard and running 3 lines of python, purposely missing the point of the saying.
