If you prefer short video lectures, Complexity Explorer also has a Random Walks tutorial: https://www.complexityexplorer.org/courses/46-random-walks

It's a bit more visual, but still gets quite math-y enough for my taste.

I'll never figure out why people post this kind of stuff here (and then it gets upvoted). there's literally nothing "hacker" related or even novel about these notes - it's just bog standard stochastic process. like these are just notes for some grad class or something. invariably someone will pop in and respond to my complaint saying "well actually I used everything in these notes for a project 10 years ago". ok. it strikes me, strongly, as just weird virtue signaling.
