#mathematic #probability #knowledge # [[Epistemic status]] #shower-thought # Frequency >The existence of a relative frequency limit is a strong assumption. Em- pirical evidence from long runs of dice throws in gambling houses or with death statistics in insurance mathematics suggests that the relative fre- quencies are apparently convergent. But clearly, no empirical evidence can be given for the existence of a definite limit for the relative fre- quency. However long the test run, in practice it will always be finite, and whatever the apparent behavior in the observed initial segment of the run, it is always possible that the relative frequencies keep oscillating forever if we continue. >~ [[Ming Li]] #to-digest # External links
