Minecraft:

The most popular modpack I've found so far is called 'Feed the Beast'.

It's pretty intense. May want to check it out.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

It truly is a shame there are not many more monarchies left in this world. Imagine Bay12 starting a legitimate princess raising business! Survival rates would be at in single digits, and think of the output quality!

Quality aerospacing~

So here I am on a bus trip, and I just recalled that in the name of dapperness my capitalization is used properly. Hans dear, if you are reading this I'm calling you out out of pure greed, for this shall bring my hat supply to a grandiose three.

Not permanent a change, however the goalposts are not to be moved in this instance.

In a wonderful twist of irony, it turns out that the big anti-gay group in Croatia have been using a song from XX (a gay band as it turns out) in their TV ads without having the rights to it, and they're getting sued by the band over it.

Uh, for those who are big musers on the 'Blue Eyes' logic puzzle... I have an extra little theory which I want to put forward here to be shot down before I try waving my banner at far more well educated people over at Xkcd. So could someone who already knows the answer tell me if I've got this fleshed out right?

I'm not a mathmetician, so I dunno if I've divided by zero or something in there.

Only 43? I have 70 in my current install, and that's just the basic suite of mods I get set up with before I start searching for any more.

I'm not sure I entirely follow your logic, but I think there's an issue in that each individual brown-eye doesn't know that if their eyes aren't blue, they must be brown; they could be any colour, and the only reason the blues get their inductive countdown thingo is because blue is specifically mentioned in the Oracle's statement.

Could be totally wrong, though.

Why would you spoiler that if it's literally what it says in the puzzle?

It's wrong. If you go by the same chain of reasoning used by blues to realize what eye color they have, if there is only one person, with brown eyes, and the Oracle says 'I see someone with blue eyes', you have a contradiction. So, you cannot formulate Theorem 1, because if there is only one brown-eyed person, nobody leaves and the oracle is a liar.

And on the 100th day, after all the blues leave, you only know you are not-blue, and if you try to determine it by seeing 99 other people, all brown eyed (plus Oracle), you get the Induction Problem - you cannot logically prove you will be brown eyed even if 99 other people are.

Scrdest, you're failing taking into account that there's more people on the island, even if only one of them has brown eyes.

How would any of the brownies know they are brown and not green? The blues' actions are independent of the non-blue's colours after all.
