I heard this theory about probability decades ago. It’s an old theory.

As the article itself notes, it's over 50 years old, and still the leading theory.

A US audience might not know, but the 'scientist' in question is an Aussie who is one of those guys who started out as an actual scientist, but for decades now has made a career publishing books (almost 50) and making media appearances, and very little else. He's a "science communicator".

He's one of those media talking-head "experts" who hasn't done any actual scientific work in decades. And like virtually all of them, he's full of folksy, down-to-earth anecdotes of utterly questionable veracity, completely lacking in proof, that always happen to paint him in a good light...
