there are many details in one image, and the chances of some player recognizing one of those details is an instance of the birthday problem?
That would be a valid model. But you are still right that it doesn’t apply: It would give the effect that a different geoguesser would get the picture right every test, while we are seeing consistent results from the top geoguessers.
I see your point, but the Birthday Problem would apply differently.
It is the chance of “collision” between randomly picked elements two large enough sets of random data. If I understand correctly, the random data here would be “geographical fact” like bush density and road width. Set A is geoguessers’ geographical knowledge, and set B is pictures’ geographical features.
So if we picked hundreds of random picture and hundreds of geoguessers and asked them, the chance of one guessing one image is high. And the person would be largely dfferent every time.
In this case, we can give one specific geoguesser a large amount of pictures and that same geoguesser would get most of them right.
Yes, but it would be an effort that does not come down to any strength, machinery, physics or logic, because in his universe the Narrative Force is infintitely stronger than any natural laws.
And the hammer is ruled by a strong narrative: Thor’s storyline.
So he would have to create a compellig narrative where he moves the hammer in a way that makes an interesting Thor story.
He can’t just move it with a planet-size magnet powered by the sun itself, but he could move it with a planet-size magnet powered by the sun itself if it could be explained in a cool way and gives Thor a great struggle to overcome, causes tension to test his relationship to Odin, or moves his character arc.

That’s the best response, imho
As a hiring manager for nearly 4 years straight, dealing with way way more than 100 applicants for some positions, I know it takes minutes at most.
All hiring systems have ways to send batch emails to rejected candidates.
If you don’t have a hiring system for some reason, it’s still just hitting reply/ctrl-v/send to each applicant you move out of the “possible candidate” inbox.
Giving a reason “why” tends to hit people badly if they didn’t specifically ask, so a stock response is not only easy to give, but the best response. Whether and how to respond in more detail to people asking for “why”, is a less easy decision but good if you are able to.
You and what army?
I guess he only needed tool assistance for one of those options.
There are a few benign-ish ways this happens, based on my experience from working on “the other side”. They reflect shittily on the hiring manager, but not on you:
You got no immediate rejection because they did consider you valid for the position, just not first place. Then they got a match on the first place and stopped giving a shit about the applicant backlog.
They got too many applicants and threw half in the garbage.
Upper management put a freeze, or reduction, on hiring right as they put an ad out.
They have a person already picked for the position, but they will get in legal or corporate or PR trouble if they don’t pretend to do a proper hiring process.
Their application process, human or computer, lost your CV.
Windows 11, got a crash to desktop right when the pod landed.
Updated graphics driver and tried a second time, and it went fine.
Not sure if the crash was pure random, or whether the driver update helped.
Thanks! It helped to get absolutely smashed and be abroad mostly surrounded by people I would never see again. Dunno how to really dance either, but just big movement versions of swaying to music like I do at home is passable.

My mind has been shattered.
For the same reason cows moo but a moose don’t cow.
Got drunk and danced at a company event.
It is very hard to type now.
Yep. Same word, just mutated slightly.
