>>740971709
well it's either 9 or 29
depends on what they mean by the "you aren't allowed to stack" rule

I'm going to assume 29 or something like that.

29!

I'll always find funny how /v/ for so mind broken by some of these puzzles that they think every single one has to be some bullshit answer instead of just using your head a bit
>>
>>740971934
I'd assume that stacking would be breaking it in half, then putting one half ontop of the other and then breaking them "once" for a double break
>>
>>740971989
if the answer to a "puzzle" is straightforward then it's not a fucking puzzle.
>>
>>740971468
ZERO, they're rectangles
>>
0, you slam the chocolate bar on the ground and it naturally breaks.

>no stacking
You said nothing about holding multiple columns of chocolate in hand at once in parallel, not stacked. Checkmate you slimy limey tosser.
>>
>>740972134
>>740972262
The wording was
>you aren't allowed to stack multiple segments on top of each other
I interpreted that literally, as it's a weird way to phrase the rule, so logically you could break multiple along each column/row as long as it traced along one line.
I do not like the wording of this puzzle.

NTA, but I think he means that you could break intermediate segments without severing the bar.
But I suspect that would count as stacking.

I don't think that's enough because you need to count yellow and there's an odd number of panels if you go around the sword alternating between two colors.

no, it's fucking retarded. the wording implies she turns over only the clock whose sand has finished falling. what they actually meant was
>she turns both timers over when the sand in either of them has finished falling
>>
>>740976820
>>740978140
you flip both over at the same time
3 minutes runs up, and has 0 minutes remaining and 3 minutes spent
5 minute timer has 2 minutes remaining but conveniently has 3 minutes spent
So now you flip both the 3 minute timer and the 5 minute timer so they both have 3 minutes on top and can run out at the same time. in only 6 minutes total
>>
>>740978140
Turn them both over and wait three minutes.
At this point, the three minute timer has zero minutes of sand at the top and three minutes of sand at the bottom. The five minute timer has two minutes of sand at the top and three minutes of sand at the bottom.
Flip them over and they now both have three minutes of sand at the top.

I don't know where else to talk about this so I'll do it here, I wanna talk about how bullshit psychology is.
There's a cognitive test called the Wason Selection Test, you can either read it up on wikipedia or watch a Vsauce video on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOiCFa5niuM The vid's way too fucking long so I'll try and make a quick report here (I gotta split it into two posts anyways, lmao)

You're given Problem 1 (see image) and told a set of rules. Every card has two sides, one side has a letter, and the other side has a number. The rule is that every A card needs to have a 7 on the back. Which cards do you have to flip to make sure the A-7 rule is being held true?
90% of people would immediately say "oh, you have to flip the A card, and the 7 card" but they'd be wrong. The reality is that you have to flip the A card and the 8 card. The A card obviously needs to be flipped because we need to check if there's a 7, but with the 7 card we don't actually care if it has an A or any other letter, if it's any other letter then we don't care because only A needs to have 7s, whereas 7 can have anything and so if it has anything else then we're fine but if it has an A on the back then we're also fine because the A-7 rule is kept intact so we don't actually need to care about what's behind the 7, but we still need to flip the 8 card to make sure there's no A on the back of it otherwise the rule would break.

Then you're given problem 2 (see image again) and told the rule. Every card has an image of a person, either an adult or a child, and the back has what they're drinking, either soda or beer. The rule is that there is no underage drinking allowed. Which cards do you have to flip over to make sure the rule is being upheld?
90% people would say "oh, flip the kid, and flip the beer" which is in fact the correct answer.

You might have noticed that these two problems are actually the same problem, just reworded and recontextualized

(continued in part 2)
>>
>>740980476
(part 2)
The problem introduced here is of course "People are given the same test slightly reworded, but in Problem 1 almost all respondents get it wrong initially, whereas with Problem 2 almost all respondents get it right. Why is that?
So big smart psychologist dudes came up with the reasoning that "oh, AG78 is an abstract concept, whereas 'underage drinking' is a well known concept of real life rule system, clearly people have an easier time understanding real life rule systems than they do abstract concepts like numbers and letters, that's why they get the first problem wrong and second problem right, because the brain understands social concepts better than abstract concepts"

This is where I think this test is complete BULLSHIT. Because as soon as I heard Problem 2, I immediately understood "oh, this isn't a logic test, this is a linguistic test" because Problem 1 talks about A and 7. Your mind is immediately drawn towards the A and the 7, that's why 90% of people immediately guess to flip the A card and the 7 card. And then Problem 2 talks about underage drinking. Your mind is immediately drawn towards the underages, and the drinking, so 90% of people immediately guess to flip the underage card and the drinking card. This sounds intuitive right? THEN WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THIS LINGUISTIC TRAP? The entire vsauce video is them going on an about "social rules" and "abstract concepts" when the reality is just that you're pre-primed by the question's phraseology. If Problem 1 instead said "A can't be 8" then you'd be right by choosing A and 8, and if Problem 2 said "Kids must drink soda" then you'd be wrong because you'd choose the kid and the soda card. WHY IS NO ONE BRINGING UP THE LINGUISTIC ISSUE???? There's like 2 comments out of 7k comments on the vsauce video going "hey wait a minute, this is a linguistics problem!" with ZERO REPLIES, literally everyone else is talking about the "social rules" bullshit. God I hate psychology
>>
>>740980449
No yeah I got that. I knew we were facing West, but the cart is getting smaller as it going into the horizon. Surely that means it's going further away from us. Like it's going into the horizon that's why I said west.

That's not necessarily true, there's no universal definition. It's a poorly described problem in the puzzle to be sure, but it really depends. In a lot of conversations talking about shapes it's really only edges, and I think specifically in the proof about that adjacent colour thing as well.

>>740980527
well, time to write and peer review a test where you give them the second test, with the rule "every child card must have a soda on the back"
instead.

or run a split where every A must have an adult on the back, and you need to make sure none of the 7s are underaged drinking.

There is no puzzle, it's just an paranoia detector.
You have to break the chocolate 29 times. The rules forbid you from stacking, so that's just how it has to work: Normal, no bullshit.

But I managed to find this https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation?paperid=67706 it talks about a wide variety of other papers also doing the experiment
They actually talk about the linguistic aspect of the problem, but they bring up irrelevant stuff like "the word 'must' or 'should' was used in this example and that caused a shift in attitudes", or "this question was phrased in a 'not-Q then P' way but this one was phrased 'not-P then Q' way and that slightly shifted responses." or "this is phrased in a Deontic way, but this is phrased in an Indicative way" or "the narrative that is constructed by the question depending on if the reader is involved or not involved in the situation"
They finally do go over the linguistic aspect of the problem in section 6.4 but they fuck it up by saying shit like "oh the amount of time the person spends looking at the card, or their eye movements impact selection" like no it fucking doesn't
They never actually say anything close to "this question has A and 7 in it, therefore people look at A and 7"

When you start the amount of sand falling is (5,3). You'll flip the timers at 3 minutes because of the 3-glass (2, 3), then 2 minutes because of the 5-glass (3, 3), then go to sleep at 8 minutes.

>>740984752

Nobody brings up the linguistic issue because the entire issue is the fact that humans innately understand the linguistics map when you present it in contexts in which our brains have been programmed to absorb faster, numb nuts. That's the entire point of it.
>BUT THERE'S A TRAP!!
Version 2 of the question has the same trap built into it, but our linguistic map of what "underaged drinking" means is more clear to us on how to avoid that trap. It's a literal 1-1 translation of the puzzle into a social dynamic, and we understand that social dynamic more than we do abstract concepts like numbers and letters.

It literally doesn't matter if it's abstract concepts or real life social dynamics as evidenced by this very study that failed to find a link between real concepts and solving the problem correctly. What matters most is how the question is phrased and which words are used to draw your attention to which cards.
>>
>>740990649
Not really. The wording of the two is different.
Problem one has the wording of "X has to have Y to it" where as Problem two has the wording of "X should not have Y to to it". It does indeed change the mental mapping of the question.

>"If I eat beef, then I drink gin."
Found the problem again. This doesn't linguistically map out the same as before. The underaged drinking version + the A to 4 version both are implicating the idea that there is a rule there. That's not the same for food and drink like this, even though it maps out the same.

>>740990956
The wording of that is logically the equivalent though. "Underage must not be drinking" = "If there is beer, then the drinker must be over age" and in some cases that wording is used instead. "If P, then q." "If not Q, then not P." The "clarity" in the wording doesn't exist except for the fact that we understand the concept of Under aged and drinking so we just "get it." It's like people who can't understand math except when you put it in terms of money (jews). Of course using language we created words for is going to "clarify" something over math formulas.
>>
>>740991285
They are logical equivalents, but to the psychology of the average person with split second decisions instead of thinking it out, they are already predisposed to think in terms of X and Y. What those X and Y are (plus the stated rules of their relationship) does influence a certain part of that initial mental mapping.
The only way that we could test that is if question 1 was reworded to have "A should not have 8 on the other side" and question 2 to become "Underage should have a soda". It'll be pointless it talk about this without seeing if that does indeed influence the change. The baseline concept is solid where we mentally map things that we use in every day life better than more abstract concepts, and I would take it on the chin if the results did end up being the same, but there is a stone to turn in this experiment.

I'm fine and open to that as a concept, but without having really read through any of these studies at all, I'm just making a base assumption that this in general would have already been tested for in a control group specifically to avoid the problem of any priming.

What I'm ultimately saying to you is that you're sort of correct about it being about "linguistics", but the issue is that the linguistics itself is the result of us understanding the concepts more clearly. If I saw something like "If I eat food, then I drink water," the language and social context of that sentence doesn't really imply the same connection between the two events like the other versions of the puzzle does. I could drink water, then eat food in that order, or I may choose not to drink water, because in this scenario, without the implications of a "rule" in place being communicated in any implicit way, the listener doesn't necessarily make the connection that I'm asking them to comprehend "There is a rule here that on the event that I eat food, then immediately after I MUST drink water," and then the later request for me to ask them to find when this "rule" that isn't clearly established is broken, they don't quite get it.

With the letters/number version, there is an implicit rule defined by the fact that it looks and sounds like I'm speaking in commonly understood math terms.

With the underaged drinking scenario, I'm already speaking in concepts that you understand much more quickly. I'm conveying way more information in less words (e.g. the term "underage drinking" requires you to already understand that I'm communicating to you the concept of what is an underaged person, that drinking contextually means alcohol, and the fact that the former isn't meant to be doing the latter, and that in the scenario you are meant to be looking for these concepts and prevent it).

There's a couple of types of puzzles out there for different types of intelligence. For example, this picture from a mensa day calendar I have tests logic/IQ, or your ability to convert things into mathematical numbers and run through your ability to calculate them to derive at the correct responds.

Puzzles like Shylock Fox or "One-page mysteries" test your imagination and ability to model the rules of the world. You're supposed to build up enough life experience to figure out the "trick" involved or catch the lie by imagining the different possibilities and excluding them based up on the simulation you concoct in your head of the scenarios.

Layton is kind of an odd ball in my opinion cause it sort of flip flops between both but it doesn't do it very well because it feels like half of the answers they ask you have legitimate and valid alternate solutions that are easier to find, but the game wants you to autistically only do it one way.

Ultimately though, the real answer: Experience.

For the New York puzzle, I saw a clock on the wall, a watch on her wrist, and just from knowing similar other puzzles I just knee jerked "The time is different" because that's a fairly common solution when time is visible. I didn't even need to remember the concept of timezones, nor did I have to check the ticket in her hand to see she was going from new york to paris, or the fact that the only other visible exit is from LA where the time difference would have been backwards, not forwards. It's not fully legal-proof, but it's more than enough for these.

I got one from a children's book of riddles that has stuck with me, not because of it being hard, but because it follows the rules of a good logic puzzle:
The detective was sitting in a bar in Vegas, enjoying the night life around him, when a tanned man from head to toe with a large smooth chin and ocean blue eyes walked up to him and offered a drink. The detective accepted as the man sat next to him. "Y'know detective, I was actually out in the desert lost for months!" said the man. The detective nodded and asked him what it was like. "Horrible! I had barely any water, a beard that covered my entire face and I got shivers during the nights!". The detective kept listening. "But I am glad that I came across here last night, someone let me in, got a nice meal, a good shave and a nice glass of water". The detective finished his drink and turned to the man, accused him of lying saying his story didn't make sense. What tipped the detective off?
>>
>>740992834
Yeah I just reread that. "It was only the sound of the sound of the bells that indicated it was a recording."

The wording in the question leans more toward the number of break motion, rather than number of breaks.

So the correct answer leans more toward 9. Specifically, "The fewest number of times I'll need to break the chocolate, is 9." Checkmate, atheists.

Stupid question but can you use something like a metal grid to cut every piece of chocolate at once? Like if you had some tool that would cover every line between each chocolate square.

Does the "number of times" you need to break the chocolate go up in increments when you perform the act itself of cutting the chocolate, no matter how many squares you separate at the time you cut? Or does cutting one square count individually? I'd be tempted to answer with "only one time" if the former is true. You could use a 3D printer to create a chocolate grid cutter and only press on the chocolate piece with it once, in order to separate every square neatly in one go.

I was thinking the same, but if you can put them in parallel (which is literally what the stacking rule is trying to prevent), it still wouldn't be 9, because you could also put your first split in parallel. IE, once split between Row 2 and Row 3, put top segment parallel with bottom segment, and split between Row 1 and Row 2 in at the same time as between Row 3 and Row 4, which saves you a split and becomes 8 with no further parallelisms. Due to odd numbers, I think you can save 3 splits this way for a total of 6. Maybe less with some rotations I'm not bothering to think about.

How did you know about the 4 color theory and not understand what the puzzle was about?

Same approach as >>740997120. Minimum number of breaks is ceil(log2(width)) + ceil(log2(height)).

In your preparation for a Layton puzzle, you drilled a hole in a perfectly square chocolate bar. Unfortunately you had terrible aim — you wanted it to be in the dead centre, but instead you were way off.
Fortunately you have your ultra-precise chocolate knife and chocolate glue with you. Is there a way you could cut it into two pieces and reassemble them, to get the hole where it belongs? And if so, what's the shortest cut?
(the grid lines of the chocolate are irrelevant to this puzzle)

You should be ables to solve this.

Cut off an L shape consisting of the bottom right square, the 3 squares above it and the 3 to the left. Then flip it around to the other side of the square. The cut will be 6 grid units long

I told you the grid didn't matter. But yes, that's a correct answer! You can do some sort of L-shape no matter where the hole is on the square.
It's not the shortest cut.
>>
>>741008263
I guess you could just cut out a hole where it's supposed to be then fill in the other hole with the punched out piece. Then the cut length would only be the circumference of the hole

There you go.
Despite being the most 'obvious' answer, people seldom get it first.

I can do it in 6, i dont care what the answer is, for me its 6.

Are you guys excited for the new Layton game? I'm happy it's coming to steam since I doubt it'll run smoothly on my Switch and I don't have a Switch 2.

And I hate those beucase they're not puzzles. They're more like riddles.
