I understand that Professor Yaffle -- the woodpecker bookend in the classic kids' TV show Bagpuss -- was loosely based on Russell.

After reading Tim Dellinger's article[^0] on performance, I wondered what distribution the firing system he alludes to would lead to. TL;DR: under some not-too-outlandish assumptions, it certainly quacks like a Pareto distribution.

If you're interested, do mess around with the code. (I'm not sure if this should be a Show HN.)

SEEKING WORK

Location: Dorset, England (Remote) CV: https://colinbeveridge.co.uk/cv/CV_Colin_Beveridge_mathemati... Email: [email protected]

I'm a mathematician who can code and write. I love solving problems and I love writing things up in creative and engaging ways -- whether it's explaining why the Black-Scholes equation is what it is, why this bridge [^0] has weird curvy bricks, or how to make your graphs look nice in matplotlib.

If a mathematically-switched on writer can solve problems for you, hit me up. I'm open to contract work, freelance projects, or a permanent post.

Hi! My name is Colin and I am a mathematician. I love solving problems and communicating the solutions.

Looking for short- to medium-term contract/consulting work, but open to discussing other opportunities.
