Eh, the "correct" answer seems silly and overly mathematical to me.

The fact is, you can infer things about people based on things you know about people. I can pick a random user on HN, and knowing they're a user of HN, I can say it's probable that they work in technology. We don't need to bring statistics into it and turn it into a math problem.
