Having only two possible outcomes doesn't mean that it's 50/50

Y'know, in XCOM I'm willing to accept that every shot is a 50/50.

It's like saying that I have 50% chance to win 100 m dash during world championship, because I will win or I lose. That does not work this way.

bayes is used with prior information to speak about unknowns, regular statistics is for certain and boring events like 99% hit chances

Baye's Theorem has nothing to do with that. Is this some kind of Ken M wannabe level troll?

2 options with a 100% chance that one of them happens.
100/2 = 50. So with 2 options means that each has a 50 percent.

2 mutually exclusive outcomes. One has 80% probability of occurring, the other has 20%.
There is an absolutely 100% chance that one of them happens. There are 2 outcomes. They chance of each is NOT 50/50, its 80/20.

You don't have a 1 in 2 chance of pulling ace of spades if you pull it on the second try.

That only applies when both option have the same chance of happening, like a coin flip.
Two options can have different chances to happen like how at any one time there are two possible states. you are getting your dick sucked or you are not. this is not a 50/50 chance. like with you, there is 0% chance you will get your dick sucked at any one moment.

coin flip isnt 50/50 either.
one of the sides will almost always have more weight on it which scews the scale.
thats why some people have built robots that can flip the coin and make it land with 100% accuracy on which ever side they want it to land.

I would imagine, in my stupid anon brain, that it would have much, much more to do with the consistency of the flip than weight at all... if it's hitting 100%
But that's just me thinking out loud and being afraid of robots taking all our coin flipping jobs away from us...

and in order to get the flip to be consistent and get the desired results you need to know all the variables.
aka which side is heavier and by how much. as well as some other things

Is that because of the different engravings on the 2 sides???

I read somewhere that a coin flip isn't really a 50/50 chance. More like a 49.8/50.2 depending on what coin and stuff. Idfk

There's also the rare rare possibility of it landing on its side.

It's nearly impossible in reality to have an actual 50/50 chance. Generally coins land on Tails more often because the Heads side usually has slightly more metal on it (by fractions of grams), but it's a very, very minute difference. It's not 50.2, more like 50.000000002

probability acts on what could happen, not what did. if you look back in time to what did happen you could say it happened 100% of the time.
