A very interesting video about manipulating the RNG (Random Number Generator) in Zelda Windwaker to remove chance in speedruns - by using Bayesian Statistics. By creating prior beliefs about where they are in the RNG state and updating these beliefs based on additional observations, they solve the battleship minigame without leaving anything to chance. This might be one of my favorite Youtube videos and shows how you can combine statistics, domain knowledge and creativity into a solution to a seemingly unsolvable problem.

Highly recommend watching this!
