Assume two criminals got arrested and imprisoned for committing a crime. Each prisoner is in solitary confinement with no means of speaking or exchanging messages with their partner in crime. The police sentence both prisoners to one year in jail. However, they propose a method to each of the prisoners. Each prisoner is given the opportunity to either betray and testify that their partner committed the crime, OR they can keep silent. Here's how it goes:
- If A and B both betray the other, each of them serves 2 years in prison.
- If A betrays B, but B remains silent, then A will be set free and B will serve 3 years in prison (and vice versa)
- if A and B both remain silent, both of them will serve the initial penalty of only 1 year in prison.
Assuming you are Prisoner A in this scenario, what would you do?
paul lemiuex ate 41 oreos before he had enough, so to speak. watch the video to see how he did and how he turned out.
I would like to now challenge my friend lewisc to attempt the oreo challenge. the challenge is to eat 100 oreos, or just try to eat more than paul lemiuex. do you have what it takes? lets go ham.
POP QUIZ in accounting class today. Luckily I had stayed up until 2am to study after watching the #worldseries game 7 last night .
Anyways, so pop quiz in process, and I'm tearing this quiz apart. Flat out, KILLING IT. Look over to my best friend sitting beside me and he's panicked, everything completely wrong! 10 min left in this quiz, so I whisper to him it's all wrong, copy mine, I know it's right, TRUST. I GOT YOU. So time ticking down, me basically handing my quiz over to him to copy. Discreetly of course.
3 MINUTES LEFT! Oh crap, I still have to finish the last tiny little bit of my quiz. So I finish up my quiz, and then help him finish up the rest of his quiz as well. We finish on time. Turns out, I got the last little bit of my quiz wrong, and my friend says "oh, I got that part right. Aha".
So all in all. My best friend, who would've failed this quiz, no doubt, comes out with the perfect score. Whereas, I get a mark shy of perfect. He was EXTREMELY grateful and appreciative and I'm glad I could help him out :). But congrats to you my friend, on your perfect quiz mark. Wish I could've gotten the same :(
