1:08 AM, March 28, 2025 Edited: 7:18 PM, May 21, 2026 Good morning, good evening, hello to all my avid readers (there aren’t any, my blog only seems to be perused by Russian web-crawlers attempting to leave malicious links in the comments section). It’s been awhile, I know, but now I have returned from my

As promised, I finally got around to reading the relevant two chapters of Adventures in Stochastic Processes. Bits and pieces of which I found informative and interesting, but most of which unfortunately went over my head. For one thing, the book is designed for a full semester graduate course in Stochastic Processes, so trying to
4:03 AM, December 19, 2024 Shorter blog post tonight. A (generous) early Christmas gift from my parents that I’ve had the joy to start using has been the reMarkable 2, which I may start using in my blog posts as it’s SO much easier to write math notation on reMarkable than it is to type

3:44 AM, November 24, 2024 Long blog post today. As I mentioned in the previous blog post, I’ve come up with a plan for self-study, and there are a couple of other developments in my plans for the program that I’ll share at the end of this blog post. Also, my friend David Skrill was
8:55 PM, Novermber 9th, 2024 Edited 12:30 PM, November 10th, 2024 This is going to be a long blog post I think, but I have a lot to say. First, I’ve thought a lot more about this blog and what it should be for, and I’ve decided that instead of it being sort of a

Resnick in order to prepare for the course in Survival Analysis I’ll be taking next semester with professor David Oakes, and since I’ve been haphazardly skipping around the book, I went to the chapter
