I was overwhelmed by the power of this place.

Absolutely. As you know, my initial diagnosis was that your cancer was inoperable.

Tell us your dream. You can make one wish without restriction.

You're the eighth person I've seen today.

However, there is a way to discover it and that is by absorption. Let's now take a quick look at some of these possibilities in turn.

Four distinct equally likely outcomes here.

My favorite is inventing a gravity shield.

You will only be able to copy the first session in raw writing mode. Continue anyway?

Nigeria got its independence in 1960.

What we now know is that no business plan survives first contact with customers.

And let me recap some of the stuff you've seen.

But we just started putting software up. Right? We've, we've got Linux on it.

I'm going to tell you a little bit about just how that actually works.

You know, when I first saw these numbers, I thought there's just no way but then I looked again.

The most likely estimate

So the lowest value that this could be is 0.

Princeton University that I'm involved in, is the effects of concussion on the brain and on cognitive performance.

And I submit them, my intuitions, my hypothesis, my first ideas.

That means, if I have a problem with the first one I pull,

It's not a true independent variable. So we're going to talk about 2 examples in this segment.

Most of those are answerable without truth tables.

The maximum load that can be assigned

That way, we can take advantage of the fact that we calculated x, and avoid the additional work.

We've all learned what the kind of panic that can occur when an old disease rears its head, like anthrax.

So there is 29 equal possibilities, for the outcome of my experiment of seeing what pops out of that bag.

Our team can easily beat your team in the first game.

That's equal to you can imagine, you have nine cards to pick from.

It consumes itself step after step after step.

So she survived the initial hits. She could still be alive.

It's called chunking.

It was made by this man.

If you eliminate the impossible, what ever remains, however improbable... must be the truth.

We can perform low cost mass recruitment for clinical trials, and we can make population scale screening feasible for the first time.

This, for us, was a social experiment an experiment in What would happen if we were as open and honest at the earliest phase of discovery chemistry research as we could be?

All these things have happened.

Anyway, I thought you'd enjoy that.

It's the most deadly natural neurotoxin on the planet, and it's impossible to trace in the bloodstream.

There must be something about you that's real.

Now, what makes the difference?

We find for day 0 we had rain, and maximum likelihood would just say the probability for day 0 is 1.

It senses red, it moves, it senses red, it moves again.

You're in the best possible position in the department.

Now here at TED, over the last couple of days,

Is it possible?

(Laughter)
