This is one of those threads that always sits in the back of my mind.
There's anther one I wrote for a poker forum that deals with the expected value using the Utility function in playing the lottery. I mainly remember it because I wrote it on a EMS trip from Cleveland to Chicago with a patient on full life support.
There's another great one (infamous really) floating around here somewhere where I believe it was Iambecome and I hashed out the numbers of the torpedos in the game.
And there's the ACTUV post where I broke down the sims values for different systems and strategies. Kinda proud of that one, especially seeing the DoD put our work into use.
And this one is easy to search for. So yeah, I keep tabs on old threads sometimes.
