| Ok , let say that the doors are marked A , B and C. Suppose you first pick door number A. Now lets look at the possibilities . i ) The car is behind door A. Then switching the door means you loose , but staying on A means you win . ii ) The car is behind door B. Then switching the door means you win , but staying on A means you loose . iii ) The car is behind door C. Then switching the door means you win , but staying on A means you loose . In 2 out of 3 cases , switching the door mean you win , but in only 1 out of 3 cases you 'll win if you stay . That 's the reason you have an advantage by switching doors . | |
| [ I can . ] ( URL_0 ) I developed a [ strabismus ] ( URL_1 ) ( squint , turn ) at a young age and had surgery to correct it which was only partially successful . My right eye is much more [ myopic ] ( URL_2 ) than my left , so my brain tends to ignore that eye . The muscles holding my right eye in alignment relax , and the eye drifts out . This messes with my stereoscopic vision , and I see double . When I become aware of seeing double , I can pull my eyes back into alignment . In the video , all I 'm doing is relaxing and straining those muscles . ' One eye out ' is actually the default position , when the muscles are relaxed . Then I strain extra hard to bring it further in than it should be . I wear glasses / contacts which correct the myopia in my bad eye , and it happens involuntarily less often , but it becomes extremely hard to control when I 'm tired or drunk . I 've never seen a 3D movie that worked for me . Something to do with the eye drifting when I 'm focussed on a point for too long- i.e. the screen . However , I can make ' Magic Eye ' type stereograms work straight away without blinking . | |
| I 've heard of two cases where they have . One was a [ dolphin ] ( URL_0 ) , which stopped breathing intentionally . The other was a bear that was having its bile drained for some eastern medicine thing . Not just once , that was basically the bear 's life , being a perpetually wounded source . One day , she killed her cub , then slammed her head into the bars of her cage until she died . She 's not the only one , and that 's not the only [ method of choice ] ( URL_1 ) ... ( Note that I 'm not counting certain defense mechanisms , like exploding ants or some bees that die when they sting , as suicide per se . ) | |
| > For example , why ca n't Microsoft Word open a .odt file ? There is zero financial incentive for Microsoft to support competing formats . There is considerable financial incentive for them to try to lock customers up in proprietary Microsoft formats , however . > What happens when a file gets corrupted / unstable ? Depending on how the file was corrupted , it can sometimes be repaired or at least partially salvaged . In some cases , even minor corruption can render the file utterly unreadable ( encrypted file containers , for example ) . > Why not have just one format for all videos and one format for all pictures ? Well , that sure would be nice , would n't it ? Trouble is , there is no single standards body in charge of these sorts of things , and anyone is free to invent their own proprietary format ( which is exactly what has led us to the dizzying array of competing formats that we know and love today ) . | |
| They hire an experts in the country they 're trying to do business in . By selling merchandise in France they agree to follow all the rules and regulations set down by that country . To even import their products they need a legal and accounting team to figure out the laws and fees associated with doing so . Generally most companies make a subsidiary in the country they are doing business in so something like " Apple France " just worries about the French specifics of doing business there . |
