How I Design and Read an A/B Test, With a Simulated Example
A walkthrough of A/B test design for a subscription change: test and control cohorts, primary and guardrail metrics, sample size and power, and how to read the result. Every number comes from a seeded simulation, not a real test.
Forecasting Seasonal Traffic: A Worked Example on Public Wikipedia Data
A seasonality-aware traffic forecast (trend, weekly, and yearly effects on log views) tested on a held-out year of public Wikipedia pageviews and compared against a seasonal-naive baseline, with notes on using it for ad-inventory planning.
