- 2022 May 9, Max Read, “What Is “The Current Thing”?”, in Slate[1]:
- Richard Hanania—one of those weird right-wing randos who appear on the scene out of nowhere every few months, suddenly raised to Twitter prominence for some occult algorithmic/dark-money reason that we will never get a good answer about—wrote a long newsletter in which he endorses opposing The Current Thing as a “heuristic”: “I would argue that a probabilistic approach suggests that we should be anti-current thing.”
- 2023 April 19, Philip Haigh, “Gauging ways to ensure rail freight gains more paths”, in RAIL, number 981, page 45:
- Johnson explained that absolute gauging assumed that everything that could go wrong would go wrong at the same time, resulting in the train hitting the platform. In contrast, probabilistic gauging says that everything can go wrong, but not at the same time. For the Pitsea '357', probabilistic gauging estimated a 0.00001% chance of the train hitting the platform. That seems much closer to the daily life of Pitsea Platform 2.
- (religion) Of or pertaining to the Roman Catholic doctrine of probabilism.
