A Short Love Story

Taking the Bet(a)

So, Loyal Readers® I am now in Blogger Beta. What does this mean? Well, it means I get cute (yeah, I said cute) little drilldown options for my previous posts, I can't post in non-Beta blogs unless I do so anonymously AND Google is one step closer to taking over my life. Did I miss the memo where Google bought Blogger? What doesn't Google own now? Hell, pretty soon Mountain View is simply going to be know as Google, CA.




In other exciting news and referring to a previous post, I was able to use chopsticks to eat sushi this weekend. Excitement!

This is especially for my boy Jay. Math can prove ANYTHING.

Sod's (Murphy's) Law really does exist

Previous studies have shown Sod's Law isn't a myth - toast will fall butter side down, odd socks do breed and string can tie itself into knots. Now the British Gas formula allows people to calculate the chances of Sod's Law striking - and try to beat it.

Five factors - urgency (U), complexity (C), importance (I), skill (S) and frequency (F) - have to be applied to a task or an event, and each scored between 0 and 9. A sixth, aggravation (A), was set at 0.7 by the boffins after their poll of 1,000 people.

Calculating ((U+C+I) x (10-S))/20 x A x 1/(1-sin(F/10)) enables you to score a Sod's Law probability on a scale of 0 to 8.6, with higher numbers making it more likely that bad luck is right around the corner.

I caught the brief version of this in The New Yorker at one point and thought it was interesting. You can add the numbers up for all kinds of things. In a nerdy way, it is fun. Read the whole article here. There is even en easy to use calculator here.
