Shannon was the first person to make this relationship mathematically precise. More generally, the less you know about what the message will say, the more information it takes to convey. ![]() In the second you had a 1-in-4 chance of guessing the right answer - 25% certainty - and the message needed two bits of information to resolve that ambiguity. So, what’s the point? In the first scenario you had complete certainty about the contents of the message, and it took zero bits to transmit it. There are four possible messages - 00, 11, 01, 10 - and each requires two bits of information. We can communicate the result using binary code: 0 for heads, 1 for tails. In the second scenario I do my two flips with a normal coin - heads on one side, tails on the other. ![]() Rhino Ranch by Larry McMurtry6/24/2023 ![]() ![]() Rhino Ranch is a fitting end to this iconic saga, an emotional, whimsical and bittersweet tribute to the lives of a man and a town that have inspired readers across decades.ĭuane Moore lives in a world of why not.

The solution to this problem, and the way to restore your child's childhood, is homeschooling. In this inflexible and stifling system, children are robbed of their childhood and denied the opportunity to actually love learning rather than view it as a chore. Children are coerced into studying the same few subjects with a rigid curriculum and a strict timeline, all in service of scoring highly on standardized tests or gaining admission into elite universities. Current elementary, middle, and high school systems tend to limit students' freedom and creativity. In the past few centuries, education has become industrialized, inorganic, and oppressive for children all across the world.

I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that Seraphina is amazing and badass, and so are her sisters. Weirdly, despite not liking the hero, I still liked the book. Even though The Day of the Duchess is really just a prolonged grovel by Malcolm (and he needs to grovel, ya’ll) I still didn’t like him at the end. I was really excited for this story which promised to be a super angsty reconciliation story–which it is–but I found that I could never forgive the hero. That said, this is also the weakest book. Now, you don’t need to read the other books to read this one, but I do think the series works really well in order. Malcolm was the one who got knocked ass-over-teakettle into a fish pond in The Rogue Not Taken and launched the whole series with his soggy duke-pants.
