This is uh... very beginner level, and doesn't feel super organized. https://www.circonus.com/resources/statistics-for-engineers/ https://www.circonus.com/resources/statistics-for-engineers/ seems like a better intro?
For more advanced conversations, here's a few more topics of interest:
- binomial distributions, and confidence intervals (application: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4nCsgt1qEU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4nCsgt1qEU)
- forecasting timeseries data with triple exponential smoothing to highlight anomalies (https://www.usenix.org/legacy/publications/library/proceedings/lisa2000/full_papers/brutlag/brutlag_html/index.html https://www.usenix.org/legacy/publications/library/proceedin...)
- methods of counting distinct values at scale. Hyperloglog (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperLogLog https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperLogLog) is used by systems like statd to estimate various statistics.
