    Lol, so true...:smile:

    B Is there a symbol for "probably equals"?

    Yeah, I noticed. But in post #16 "I asked Hey does anyone know if there is a symbol for "A necessarily equals B"" It seems like this new question is relevant enough to my original post and needs that it would be on topic to ask. I don't see why this would be against the rules. I figure if no...

    B Is there a symbol for "probably equals"?

    Hey does anyone know if there is a symbol for "A necessarily equals B" ? An example would be "ball necessarily equals sphere" or maybe "truth necessarily equals (not falsity)"

    B Is there a symbol for "probably equals"?

    I can't find that symbol. Can you tell me where I would find it?

    B Is there a symbol for "probably equals"?

    Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Uhh. Yeah, I might use the subset and an asterisk symbol. I'm not sure if that fits with my particular situation, but I'll consider it.Thanks for your help.

    B Is there a symbol for "probably equals"?

    @StoneTemplePython I'm not real good with math in general, and I know even less concerning probability and statistics. What notation, for example, would you think makes sense for the statement: cat very likely equals animal I know cat is a subset of animal, but most people say a cat...

    B Is there a symbol for "probably equals"?

    @jedishrfu Thanks. I'd rather have a probably equals symbol but I think I might just settle for the ≟ or the a.s. notation.

    Is there a symbol for "probably equals" ? An example would be A probably equals B.

    Why something but not nothing.

    I'm not a particularly edumacated guy, but I wonder about things sometimes. Right now I'm wondering why something but not nothing. Why does anything exist, and not nothing? My real question, however, is below. Unfortunately, because I'm not really smart I don't suppose I will have much to...

    How to ensure voter ballot integrity

    Yeah. I think if I can find time for it I just may do that next election.

    How to ensure voter ballot integrity

    I don't think what I've proposed is excessive or exotic at all. Though, as you've mentioned, federally mandated serialization and national and state databases may not be constitutionally supported. I would like to point out that states and districts are required to report tallies. Well, I...

    How to ensure voter ballot integrity

    Why would you want this thread to be closed? So far this thread is nice... Everybody's answers seem fairly nice, I guess. I'm going through them and thinking of what else I can ask and say next.

    How to ensure voter ballot integrity

    Hmmmmmm…… I don't know. But what's stopping criminal election overseers from doing just what I've described? Also, there are other voting issues that would be addressed, at least in part, by a serialized voting system. I'm concerned about pointing out those problems because some might take...

    How to ensure voter ballot integrity

    I mean legally binding a federally government issued serial number to some set of things such as a registered voter and a physical ballot or to whatever makes the most sense. One, among other, issues with voting is the possibility that a voter's ballot could be destroyed and replaced with one...

    How to ensure voter ballot integrity

    Right now I'm just wondering about national and state serialization of all general and midterm election ballots. I'm wondering how serialization of voters could be implemented and still maintain anonymity? In particular, I'm wondering how could one serial number be assigned to exactly one...
