Estimating Pi Using Buffon's Needle Probability Experiment March 14, known as Pi Day, celebrates the mathematical constant pi, which is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter and appears in various scientific and artistic contexts. While humans have calculated pi to trillions of decimal places, practical applications, like NASA's spacecraft navigation, only require the first 15 digits. One intriguing way to estimate pi comes from an 18th-century probability experiment by George Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon. The experiment involves dropping needles onto a floor marked with parallel lines and determining the probability that a needle crosses one of the lines. When the needle length equals the spacing between lines, the probability of crossing a line is 2 divided by pi. By dropping many needles and recording the fraction that crosses lines, one can approximate pi without complex calculus. This process is effectively a Monte Carlo simulation, a method developed in 1946 during the Manhattan Project, which uses random sampling to model complex phenomena. Simulations, whether with physical needles or computer-generated random numbers, provide a practical way to estimate pi and demonstrate fundamental principles of probability. Buffon's needle experiment is a historical and accessible illustration of randomness, geometry, and numerical estimation.

And since I am a true #conspirator, which means that I consider as many things as I can that seem plausible at some reasonable #probability like 1 in 10 is enough to be dangerous. 1 in 10 says he will create the #attack through channels. Probably the #IDF will set it up, but it won't be them.

Prediction intervals for GLMs part I One of my more popular answers on StackOverflow concerns the issue of prediction intervals for a generalized linear model (GLM). My answer really only addresses how to compute confidence intervals for...

#statstab #501 Prediction intervals for GLMs

Thoughts: Sometimes the prediction of the next dat point can be [0,1]. Not very useful.

In front of you are three coins, identical in appearance. However, while two of them are fair coins, the third comes up Heads 75% of the time. Your task is to identify which coin is the unfair one, but you may only perform a total of three coin flips! (For each flip, you can flip any coin you want, taking any past flip results into account.) After those three flips, you must declare which coin you believe to be the unfair one.

Assuming you "play optimally," what is the likelihood that you will correctly identify the unfair coin after your three flips?

The Gumbel‑Max Trick Made Intuitive Author: Alexandre Gilotte

A bit of math, about the "Gumbel trick":
A sampling algorithm usually presented as some kind of dark magic:
“Look! Two ugly pages of calculus prove it works!”

So I wrote this blog to present a magic-free explanation. Also almost calculus-free.
