Apple store down as of 11.57am in Asia (U.S./Europe/etc. also)

[SchneiderMan]

Didn't Apple have an internal meeting yesterday? July 07/08

yes, i was next to a apple store and saw all the workers in a group inside the closed apple store talking

Denmark down as well. 4.11 UTC/GMT.

Let's hope it's computer related, and not some tiresome iPhone product.

I don't know you, but I like the way you think!

 

[jackjason]

I just did it by saying that I have a 50-50 shot on each one and I have 4 questions, so the denominator is clearly 16. The numerator comes from thinking about that there is precisely one way for you to have a correct solution for each question and incorrect for the rest (like 0001 or 0010 in the list).

You can also consider it as an expansion of (F + T)^4 = F^4 + 4*T*F^3 + 6*T^2*F^2 + 4*F*T^3 + T^4 where T is a correct answer and F is an incorrect answer. Then, having T^1 is having one correct and all the rest false. The coefficient of this is 4 so you will have 4 distinct occurrences of having only one question answered correctly.

My probability is a little rusty, but those are two ways that I was thinking of the solution. Would thinking of each "trial" (answering each question) as independent of the other ones help put it in perspective of AND or OR?

thanks again!
it's very helpful..

thanks again as well to all others who helped me on this ..

who's your ISP? I'm in the UK and have tried on 3 different ISPs and they all show the same... the site is off-line.

re: umm...

im on Pipex Homecall but if you run an isp searcher on my ip address it says tiscali

 

[siurpeeman]

the probability of obtaining a score of 1 correct on a 4-item true-false test by random guessing is ?

I need help, guys...

how to do this?
thanks.

I count 16 different combinations of T/F and 4 occurences of having exactly 1 answer true. I passed probability and inferential statistics.

beat me to it.

thanks..but how to figure this out without listing all the possibilities..

you don't need to list out the possibilities. all you need to know is the total number of outcomes (2^4 = 16) and the fact that there are four ways to get one question right. like, question 1 is true while everything else is false, question 2 is true while.... 4 desirable outcomes with 16 total possibilities = 1/4.

Its possible mobile.me will be going live allowing us to buy and activate our me.com accounts.

That would be my guess, new hardware would be nice though,

[zephead]

You bastard!

Sheesh, it's not like he killed Kenny or anything, although maybe we should kill Rick.

And to put my 2 cents in about the Apple Store being down... I say it's for MobileMe.

i didnt click that LOL

First time I've ever come up with anything clever to say in a thread. Well, internet-clever, at least. Haha.

EDIT: I am also very suspicious of tinyurls now... I don't click them anymore.

thank you ,too !

I think the team who's doing the work went to bed..

 

[peterdevries]

lets bet on it, i say accessories

Cool! I love bets. I say it is something else. Probably an updated Touch with iPhone type plastic back. You're on.

I also think though that it's nothing "big" like updated MBP's, MB's, MMs or Newton..

I never click on tinyurl links. I've seen some things that nearly made me go blind before.

Two Guys One Cup? That is clearly a winner.
