" hypothesis "

 [ "hypothesis" ]

1: A prediction or educated-guess based on current evidence that is yet to be tested.

  * e.g.,  ... I hypothesize that my pants will decend.  

 [ "hypothesis" ]

1: A guess made by someone with a PhD.

  * e.g.,  ... It's not just a guess, it's a hypothesis. 

 [ "hypothesis" ]

2: In common usage, the words hypothesis, model, theory, and law have different interpretations and are at times used without precision, but in science they have very exact meanings. A hypothesis is a limited statement regarding the cause and effect in a specific situation, which can be tested by experimentation and observation or by statistical analysis of the probabilities from the data obtained.

 [ "Hypothesis" ]

1: An educated guess. Yup, it's that simple. No need to spend hours trying to find someone who understands the Wikipedia shit! 😂

  * e.g.,  ... Girl #1: ugh! I have this stupid lab report due tomorrow and I don't know what a hypothesis is!! I'm gonna go search it on Wikipedia. 

 [ "Hypothesis" ]

1: Hypothesis means, a different theory or observation by seeking into it.

  * e.g.,  ... I made a hypothesis guess fr9k what I already know. 

 [ "mac's hypothesis" ]

1: Mac's hypothesis is the theory that a man can establish whether he is straight or gay by watching gay porn and seeing if he gets hard.

  * e.g.,  ... Person A: Fuck man I followed Mac's hypothesis yesterday and I got hard 

 [ "Trackenberg Hypothesis" ]

1: If you have a solid food, and you put nutella on it, it now tastes better than before you added the nutella.

  * e.g.,  ... Friend: These cookies are stale I'm just gonna throw them out. Me: WAIT!!! Use the Trackenberg Hypothesis. Friend: You're right... mmmmmmm soooooooo gooooood 

 [ "shitposting hypothesis" ]

1: A hypothesis proposed by C.P.and A.P., which stipulates that the incidence of irrelevant comments increases proportionally to the duration of existence of a group chat conversation originally formed with a single, focused purpose.

  * e.g.,  ... Our group chat regarding grass-root political organizing in Cyprus has deteriorated into relentless shitposting about petty politics and vegan recipes, confirming our shitposting hypothesis. 

 [ "Riemann Hypothesis" ]

1: Without question, THE most important unsolved problem in all of mathematics. The hypothesis, put forth by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, states that ALL non-trivial zeros of the Zeta function have a real part of one-half. Another way to put this is that the distribution of numbers with an odd number of prime factors vs. those with and even number of prime factors is roughly 50/50. Anyone who can prove the Riemann Hypothesis without the aid of a computer will win a $1,000,000 prize. A great deal of mathematical theorems rest on the assumption that this hypothesis is true. If anyone can find a non-trivial zero of Zeta with a real part not equal to 1/2 will destroy a lot of mathematical work, and become very famous.

  * e.g.,  ... The Zeta function = 1 + 1/2^S + 1/3^S + 1/4^S .... to infinity. The Riemann Hypothesis states that Zeta = 0 only when the real part of S = 1/2 (non-trivial zeros on the critical line). Has eluded a proof for almost 150 years. 

 [ "Ryancassandra Hypothesis" ]

1: This is when a much older man dates a much younger, unattractive (and usually slutty) woman, because he is desperate.

  * e.g.,  ... John felt alone, so he went for a Ryancassandra Hypothesis hoping that a young girl would like him because he could drive and buy beers. 

 [ "hive hypothesis" ]

1: An open source project in which all members equally share the goals, work and results.

  * e.g.,  ... Wikipedia is the hive hypothesis in action.
