When I don't know what to play, I play Sporcle. It's perfect!
"I did the wrong fruit" then immediately doing the wrong fruit again is peak comedic timing
You piece
I didn’t think it was possible
There's a universe where NL realizes he actually enjoys mathematical thinking before choosing his major and pursues a degree that actually pays the bills in a field he enjoys and correspondingly leaves us devoid of POGs
he's mentioned that he took a few math courses in uni cuz he enjoyed them. Got to something second year and found it a bit much, but he gave it a shot!
@@tsawy6 I think he only took up to calculus 1 and then maybe did some linear algebra when he was pursuing CS. Plenty of people have trouble with calculus initially but eventually you realize it's 90% algebra at that level.
Imagine a world never being introduced to Super Auto Pets, I certainly don't want to
god stemlords are fucking insufferable
Him doing everything right, solving each case of the dice rolls flawlessly, correcting his mistakes as he went, coming up with the correct answer for the "difference of 2 between rolls" and then simplifying the damn fraction wrong LMFAOOOOO
It's the opposite of the first quiz where his math was fine, he just couldn't fucking read.
Pro gamer moves only The Egg could make
1:15 never thought i'd find myself doing the quadratic formula to find the value of banana but here we are
That's like insanely slow why would you use the quadratic formula??
@@enchilottas8690 apparently algebra aint as good as it used to be 👴
@@enchilottas8690 consistency. shit works every time. what if the banana was imaginary?
quad formula lets you see that banan could be -8 as well as 7
@@realpieceofshit4637 or you could just factor
My favourite part is when he got so mad that 8/36 didn’t equal 1/8.
He was SO close and yet so far away Sadge
Start with 1/8. Also, 1 = 1/1
1/8 * 1 = 1/8 (obv)
But 1/8 * 1/1= 1/(8+9) = 1/9
Thus 1/8 = 1/9
(Sorry for making you read this bs lmao)
@@Michael-kp4bd that's some Terrence Howard math
The dice roll probabilities are much easier if you play Catan and you know the number of pips on each tile number by heart
He plays catan too
The real purpose of my maths degree was it allowed there to be exactly one Sporcle video where I know the answers before NL does.
absolutely same, the way he counted probabilities of dice sums by starting with one die made me crazy
There is a dark mode on sporcle, is northernlion insane?
The dark mode would draw all visual gaze to the bright, shining, smooth, bald dome in the bottom corner.
Insane? He’s cracked. The best to ever do it. Many people are saying this.
He's saying objectively wrong things to boost engagement.
NTA your stream, your rules
He would love to hear your thoughts on this.
Being a craps dealer and seeing how you solved dice rolls literally made my night.
I need to see Dan do these probability quizzes man. I need that chaos in my life.
How will this affect the fruit tier list
i thought my 60 year old mind was decaying fast after not being able to identify all those TV sitcoms of the previous quizzes as quickly as NL, but I can do the maths much faster than him, so not completely senile yet!
“It’s why you need a piece of paper!” he shouts after doing the math in his head.
My friend has a chemical engineering degree, people feel the need to ask him chemistry questions and he just goes "idk, why are you asking me trivia questions?"
this is so fucking true. Its especially annoying because people assume youre some kind of PhD chemist and know everything. Im not a fucking chemist dude I just solve math problems about pipes.
Chemical engineering involves 90% less chemistry than most people assume. It's almost all math and physics with a tiny bit of chemistry for accounting for chemical reactions in a process.
@@plan3teris it's just a question?
@@antonioborobia4178 when you get asked the same type of question based on the same faulty assumption a lot it tends to get old.
how many complex chemistry questions does the average person know, though? I feel like anything beyond 'what happens when you mix an acid and a base', he could just give whatever answer he wants.
My highschool math teacher watches this guy and I just know he's nerding out over this one
My dude forgot about the union rule of probability. Pr(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B). That's because if you counted the cases in which A happens, and add the cases in which B happens, you've counted the ones in which both happen twice.
If my dude refreshed his memory on the rules of probability he'd ace those quizzes in no time
Bruh, who does that
He managed to get there most of the time, mostly by breaking down cases. You're right in that it woulda helped
@@zarkork-1217 it's a special case of the generalized principle of inclusion/ exclusion (GPIE), it's extremely important in practical statistics to have a handle on this
@@JPK314 Not just statistics - very important principle for everyday reasoning
@@TheFartoholic I don't think that's true. If you aren't considering the contents of sets it's not relevant, most people don't concern themselves with that in their every day lives.
Reap the rewards of cormering the untapped math quiz market. 2 million subscribers incoming.
37:19 holy SHIT. As someone who is mildly colourblind, this is the most accurate shit ever.
When people find out I have some degree of colourblindness, I get "ALRIGHT, WHAT'S THIS COLOUR THEN?"
I know what fucking green and red are! I can fucking see them!
For me, colour charts are all messed up. I see large chunks of the same shades of greens and reds, and people are just like "Wow I can't believe you've never seen green or red your *entire* life! WHAT'S THIS COLOUR THEN?" **shows me something yellow or some shit**
Soo.. they blend together like you are hallucinating?
@@miquelmoorrees6010 nah, it's more that shades of red that are distinct in our eyes aren't distinct. Lines and contrast are fine.
When you said "When people find out I have some degree of colourblindness," I was like "whoa, you can get a degree in colourblindness?"
"I get it, you live in America. You did very well in your Math class but you haven't taken Geography yet; you still think you're the centre of the world" (28:18) fuckin sent me
Centre LMAO
A dark mode would honestly make these videos a lot more watchable for falling asleep, which is NLs main purpose for me
Ok, that's not very nice is it
@@YellowSpaceMarine is it really that bad?
@@YellowSpaceMarine soothing voice?
@@YellowSpaceMarine he knows people fall asleep to him, I fell asleep to Issac episodes all of high school like many others. A lot of his success comes from it too; someone asleep "watches" the whole video and any ads that play
I have tinnitus so need some background noise to fall asleep easier. NLs videos are great because whilst I’m awake they are entertaining but long enough that I can fall asleep to. I’d hate to think what my watch hours are
"Garry Kasparov is the inventor of chess" Huh, the more you know.
Those probabilities, man. If I were to do that quiz by myself, I could probably do that no problem. But definitely not when talking out loud about what I'm doing, and trying to keep it somewhat entertaining. The man is cracked!
NL, there is dark mode. Press your profile picture and close to the bottom of the dropdown menu there is a toggle. Love your Sporcle content
Go type in his chat or he'll never see this
Northenlion realizing he did the wrong fruit then immediately doing it again was hilarious lmaoo
29:36 Ok, that “flip a coin 100 times, what can you conclude” question is bullshit. I know it’s not a statistics question but you cannot tell me that a 1 in 6.3 x 10^29 event happening naturally is just an anomaly, come on.
If you flip a coin 100 times and it comes up heads every time, you can go ahead and conclude its a two headed coin.
"That's the family idiot!" Best bit of the month, the self dunk strawman. Something about this man's nonstop self shower arguments has really structured him to make these kind of jokes.
twitch rivals but it's just twitch streamers take the SAT
How did NL choose the name Ho Borvat? I've been watching for a few years at this point and still haven't figured it out.
There is a player on the Vancouver Canucks named Bo Horvat. NL is a fan of ice hockey so he must have just grabbed his name and inverted it because it was funny
There's an NHL player called Bo Horvat
My wife wants more tv quizzes, that’s all she watches of you with me 😡
I usually watch these to sleep but ofc this is my favourite kind of math. so I just spent the whole video pausing to solve it and then seeing if he gets it right and yelling if he doesn’t xD
If there's no dark mode on Sporcle, you could try the extension Dark Reader. It works for most web pages. Dark mode would be greatly appreciated cause I love watching sporcle content in bed, and even at the lowest brightness the pure white screen is still a little jarring. Anyway, love the content, thanks for the consistent uploads!
I wish there were links or at least a list of the names of the quizzes.
We found the one type of trivia that NL isn't amazing at
29:38 Okay, I know that's the math answer, but if you flip a coin 100 times and it comes up all heads, that shit is absolutely loaded. The probability is 1 in 2^100, or roughly 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 -- you would be better off gambling on where I parked my car inside the sun. The odds are the same as flipping a coin 100 times and correctly guessing every flip. No way buster, not on my planet
I died when he typed hrothis for georgia
bro i never learned about factorials
Using fruits instead of letters actually made my brain completely bug out. The fuck is an apple squared
You're way to educated to be a streamer. And they may be the best compliment a streamer could get.
What is going on with the kittens? Is three of one gender really more likely than a two two split?
3M-1F and 3F-1M are individually less likely than a 2-2 split (1/4 each vs 3/8) but if it can be either, then combined together it's 1/2 which is greater than the 3/8 for 2-2.
Its literally just math but with fruit instead of letters. Apparently thats all grade school needed to do to get people interested in math.
Billion and trillion are different in the UK because we consider a billion to be a million millions, and a trillion to be a billion billions.
not true.
otherwise the billionaires in the uk are multi septillionaires
didn't think I hear "the square root of watermelon" today
Ryan has some number of blueberries in his hand.
Mike has that many and 84 more blueberries in each of his 8 hands. the total number of blueberries in Mike's hands is the number of blueberries in Ryan's hand factorial. How many blueberries does Ryan have if they expired a week ago?
People think algebra is hard - just wait until they need to identify grape to the power of banana
The moment NL realizes that there IS dark mode on Sporcle will be a magical moment
Nl trying to do all these complicated formulas when he could just count the events
I’ve been thinking about this probability quiz ever since I saw it live. NL’s method is unique. Incredible scenes
nice vid! btw, have someone heard the rumors of aita's demise? are they accurate?
i feel like that could be exaggerated, perhaps greatly.
Take me back to celebrity and food quizzes. I came here to deteriorate, not to learn math.
“I can feel my brain swimming” ?!?’
Thanks for this, I found something I'm better at than NL, I got an aneurysm watching that first math quiz.
Yo what the frick I'm getting the shakes. I haven't watched a SAP video in 29 hours.
Up to 48 hours. I'm going to have to go seek treatment if you're cutting us off
"Why are there so many quizzes of the Periodic table" "Its not like they are adding new stuff in it", Well yes they are, every time they discover new elements they do add it to the periodic table. If you look at the periodic table from the 2000s and now, you will see a difference, for example in 2015 they added 4 new ones.
6:35
“6! is 720.
(84 + 6 ) x 8 = 720…. no so it’s gotta be 7. “
Afterwards, proceeds to say 6! isn’t 720 😂
NL’s conscious gets in the way of his genius subconscious.
the man is actually cracked at arithmetic/algebra, now we know where all his math skill points otherwise used for mental shape manipulation went.
i freakin love bald man knows things videos
Only reason NL got the card one wrong is because sporcle counted aces high
If you are talking about the fifth one on the second quiz, he forgets to excluded the jack (higher than) and count the other red suit. He says 26/52 and 4 is 30/52 which is 15/26. Should be 26/52 (all the black cards) and 6 (queen king ace of diamonds and hearts) is 32/52 which is 8/13. Overall pretty good by the seat of his pants. Edit* On second thought, youre right, he could've just forgot the aces.
This video showed me that seeing NL do killer or other variant type sodoku would be content
Brother, if you have a STEM degree you should already know that your odds of getting head is zero
I could correctly solve maybe 70% of the probability questions, but i fucking hate solving probability, never want to do that again.
been kinda low key hoping that NL would do maths quizes just cus i like maths. can we get a brady haran crossover episode please? also that blueberry factorial question is legit hard, i couldnt figure it out in my head in a reasonable (aka stream friendly) amount of time
At 31:00, can anyone explain how three kittens being one gender and one being the other is more likely than 2 boys 2 girls? I'm sleep deprived as hell atm and I cant figure it out lmao
Very late, but think of the outcomes. There are 16 total outcomes, how many of those are when half the cats are male and the other half female? Well you can have (M,M,F,F) (M,F,F,M) (F,F,M,M) (M,F,M,F) (F,M,F,M) (F,M,M,F) for six total. Now think of three being on gender and the last being the other gender, you have (M,M,M,F) (M,M,F,M) (M,F,M,M) (F,M,M,M) and the same set but with Fs and Ms switched, so that’s eight. A more general way to show it would be to say there are 4C2 ways of ordering two of each gender, and 4C3 ways of ordering three of one gender, so for the 50/50 split it’s simply 4C2 = 6 and for the three of one/one of the other it’s 4C3 = 4 for three male, and another 4C3 = 4 for three female for a total of 8.
@@rijsmiddel8765 this is where I think probability makes no sense because if it were two sets of two separately then each set of two would be more likely to be 1 of each gender by the same logic but when combined it's no longer true. Half of me thinks that parts of math were created so people can act like they're smarter even though it makes no sense.
The thing about the UK trillion is massively outdated. Long enough ago that I can kind of remember it happening, but I'm old enough that I can no longer remember exactly when. The entire world now uses the same system - for obvious reasons.
seeing NL struggle with probabilities makes me feel not as bad as i used to about failing my AP Stat exam
A trillion is 10^12 in the UK
For stats you need to have to and , or formulas idk only savages can memorize them after a couple years
blueberry question is actually insane
Maths bore me to death, yes I was horrible at math and still am.
A streaming meta I could get behind!
I was thinking The Clapper, too. Fuck
As someone who loves Sporcle content but is very bad at movies, this was very pogged content.
Anyone willing to explain to me why the dice roll involves permutations and not combinations? Seems to me order of the dice wouldn’t matter when finding probability i.e. denominator would be 21 instead of 36
assume for a moment, that the dice have different color. than you can distinguish them. green 5 and red 3 is different from green 3 and red 5.
but now if you make them the same again, that cannot change the probability.
in other words, the chances of each result wouldn't be uniform if you don't distinguish the dice.
@@Nowolf that's a cryptic reply... what do you mean by "result"? but you are right, you cannot just assume the same chances for every result. you can only do that if you define your results in an appropriate way. eg the numbers on distinguishable dice.
7:40 wth, I don't think I ever learned about factorials in school 😂
Either that or it was taught once and never again and I just forgot
I just read that != as a "not equal"
Someone give this man a piece of paper
This man is unbearably slow with these equations. But then again it's been 20 years since he's done these equations, and it's been like 24 hours for me.
in 5 years you should do your daughters homework on stream
This video got me StatChest ing
This made me realise that NL isn't actually that smart.
FINALLY A POSSIBLE QUIZ
He talked about how some people can’t stand cringe humor, I feel the same way about this. I get he’s going slowly on purpose for content but it infuriates me to no end and I can’t explain why lmao.
Moths are the best. I am glad to see a fellow moth defender. 53:22
28:16 MAN GETS WREKED
-8 also works for the banana one, funny how my mind got that one before 7 lol
Appreciated.
From the UK, What the hell are they talking about its different in the uk
1,000,000,000,000 is a trillion here too
Blueberry Factorial? What the frick is a Factorial?
This man has a high basicity
Ohhh no please no probability
How the hell did he get the 5 in 36 dice probability with the worst working out I've ever heard?
This video is frustrating. Not because he's getting things wrong, but instead because I'm getting them wrong as I try to follow along.
million, milliard, billion, billiard, trillion, trilliard, same for german
Morbilliard
NL tries his hand at alegebra
Actually there are quite a few maths channels..
The "people ask you the same questions when they find out you have a degree" is exactly the same as when they find out you speak a second language.
Literally everyone always says: "SAY SOMETHING!!!!!", then, no matter what you say, the next thing is always "WHAT'S THAT MEAN"??!?!?"
I've just defaulted to asking "what do you want me to say?" in the other language every time.
He will still be called Jeff Bezos in the UK.
i got headache from this
finally a quiz i can demolish nl in for a change!
What is the probability of coming across a probability-based quiz if hitting "random" on Sporcle?
These would take me so long to figure out 🤦
