DIMMiN Notes
My working notes related to the development of dimmin.com.
2024-03-11
- Continued writing Mini Martial Artists - Part 2
- Found how to calculate the difference between two Beta Distributions without needing to apply Bootstrapping techniques to them.
- Involves a product of the Cumulative Density Function and Probability Density Function of the two different Beta Distributions
- Unrelated to the above but today I also found out about smarter notetaking in Obsidian via Dann Berg. This could be worth looking into.
- Could have implications for the BigBrain App (maybe making a BigBrain Blog that posts raw notes as I work on them?)
