OMG, that seems reckless. Can’t anyone do arithmetic among those brass's left in the Pentagon? Understandable that Pentagon Pete can’t count, with all that testosterone swishing about, but what about the underlings, with less of the disabling testosterone? [sarcasm]

Alright, future engineers!
**Combinations:** Ways to choose 'r' items from 'n' where order *doesn't* matter.
Ex: Choosing 2 from 5 for a team: C(5,2) = 10. (C(n,r) = n!/(r!(n-r)!))
Pro-Tip: Think C for CHOOSE! Order is irrelevant. Essential for forming groups & probability.

Alright, future engineers!
**Combinations:** How many ways to choose items when order *doesn't* matter.
Ex: Choosing 3 team members from 5 people (ABC is same as CBA). `nCr = n! / (r!(n-r)!)`
Pro-Tip: If swapping chosen items doesn't make a new group, use combinations!

**Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion (PIE):** Counts items in a union of sets by adding individual counts, then subtracting overlaps to correct for double-counting.
Ex: `|A U B| = |A| + |B| - |A int B|`
Pro-Tip: Crucial for complex counting problems! Ensures you count each unique item exactly once.

...Not as if I look it up.

Alright, future engineers!
**Combination:** An *unordered* selection of 'k' items from 'n' distinct items.
Ex: Choosing 3 people from 5 for a committee: `5C3 = 10` ways.
Pro-Tip: The *order* doesn't change the outcome! Think teams, not lineups.

Alright, future engineers!
**Permutation:** An *ordered* arrangement of 'k' items chosen from 'n' distinct items.
Ex: Arranging 3 books from 5: `5P3 = 5!/(5-3)! = 60` ways.
Pro-Tip: The *order* or sequence is crucial! Think distinct positions or roles.

Geeks Are Sexy: Watch Three Chatty AI Agents Completely Overthink Counting to 100. “In this hilarious experiment, YouTuber Gamer Husk IRL lines up three phones, each running a different AI assistant, and gives them one incredibly simple mission: take turns counting to 100. Sounds easy, right? Instead, the three AIs spend an absurd amount of time politely introducing themselves, confirming the […]

Alright, future engineers!
**Combination:** An *unordered* selection of 'k' items from 'n' distinct items.
Ex: Choosing 3 people from 5: `5C3 = 5!/(3!2!) = 10` ways.
Pro-Tip: Order DOES NOT matter! If order matters, use Permutations.

Before I write a bug report: (if there isn't already one)

Does anyone know, why the Mastodon counting is so strange?

e.g. for #dietotenhosen
https://mastodon.social/tags/dietotenhosen

It shows 3 posts on the numbers

But if you scroll down there are a lot more posts with the hashtag

🎩✨ Breaking news: physicists still can't count! Quanta Magazine rambles on about particles like a toddler with a handful of Skittles. 🍬🔬 Meanwhile, readers get a #physics lecture masquerading as a quest for a simple number. 🙄💥

Teaching the kids to count in French. I seriously don't see why anyone would find it difficult...

Alright, future engineers!
**Combinations** count ways to choose items where order *doesn't* matter.
Ex: Choosing 3 committee members from 10: C(10,3) = 10! / (3! * 7!).
Pro-Tip: If rearranging selected items gives the *same* outcome, it's a combination!

@Earl @aleph_omega_plus_four @SmartmanApps
Which is why ten is such a bloody silly choice for a number system base. We should be using sixty and/or twelve!
And don't get me started on our use of c/d instead of c/r to describe the fundamental circle constant!

Voting is not just a matter of those who vote, but also of those who count.
#GOP government attempts to prevent non-GOP citizens to be involved in #counting #votes in the #midterms. For transparency, citizens of all political backgrounds and affiliations must participate in the counting. If trump succeeds in manipulating the #midterms in his favour, the USA will cross another thin line towards #dictatorship. #nofascism
