The geometric and exponential distributions are said to be memoryless. How much memory do some other distributions require? (Intended as a serious question.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorylessness …

I first heard about this stuff from
@CharlesCThomas_ when I was in grad school: he did a bunch of neat experiments on *tilted* granular hoppers! https://arxiv.org/abs/1410.0933 https://arxiv.org/abs/1206.7052 -
I find granular physics scary! I like to think that you can do physics on a continuum by deriving the physics for an infinitesimal element and then integrating. But this seems to fail for granules. Leaves room for good experiments though
