− | :::On the other hand, "Poisson", in French, despite being the name of the discoverer of this distribution, also means "fish". thus maybe the "no memory" joke? [[Special:Contributions/141.101.104.101|141.101.104.101]] 21:43, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

− | Also note that the Poisson distribution is "memoryless" (like the exponential distribution) which explains why the Poisson is content to continue repeating this fact. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.222.178|108.162.222.178]] 16:44, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

− | The coinflip distribution described in the second paragraph not a Poisson Distribution. Rather it is a binomial distribution (or a Bernoulli distribution for the single flip case). [[Special:Contributions/108.162.229.163|108.162.229.163]] 11:11, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

− | The first three panels establish that Cueball is a Poisson distribution, that Black Hat finds him annoying and that both parties exist and can communicate with each other. In other words, Black Hat's value is compatible with a Poisson distribution. The implication of panel three seems to be that Black Hat isn't ''stating'' his value but is stating his ''change'' in value to "I'm less than zero." This is similar to the phrase, "I'm less than impressed." The change in value ''causes'' Cueball to vanish. In the fourth panel, Black Hat is whistling a happy tune; pleased at having removed an annoyance. --[[User:David.poole.9000|DP9000]] ([[User talk:David.poole.9000|talk]]) 02:44, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
