Can someone please explain how the math works out to 89%?

>> let’s imagine two players, Alice and Bob, and a 3-by-3 grid. A referee assigns Alice a row and tells her to enter a 0 or a 1 in each box so that the digits sum to an odd number. Bob gets a column and has to fill it out so that it sums to an even number. They win if they put the same number in the one place her row and his column overlap. They’re not allowed to communicate. Under normal circumstances, the best they can do is win 89% of the time.

Try LeechBlock (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/leechblock-ng...).

It's been a lifesaver in tackling my internet addiction. It has the useful 'delay option' and other nifty features that helped wean me off social media sites.

Personally, I have it installed on all my desktop browsers and Firefox on Android. I give myself half an hour quota per day for the time waste websites (Youtube, Twitter, FB, Insta, etc) after which a 60 second delay rule kicks in. I've found that my monkey brain almost never bothers waiting for a minute for the page to load unless it's absolutely necessary.
