We havent seen the weights. In a general sense - yes; in a weighted sense - slow yes

Not to be too dark, but some people probably start in the die state and never even get to have any sort of poop. :(

I suppose that's still technically no diarrhoea.

I wonder what kind of conditions might allow that state chart to have a transition from Death back to Diarrhea.

post mortem spasms might cause defecation

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The worst is diarrhea and cough

[–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 1 points 4 days ago

Best combo in Pandemic

[–] Gsus4@mander.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago

I want the transition probabilities, fam. That's where the fun's at!

If you think about it, and I suggest you don’t, this is a Markov model for all people regardless

Are you implying that all of these are actually different representations of the same thing?

The son gets into some shit
The father does not give a shit
and the holy ghost gives up the shit

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 3 points 2 weeks ago

I mean everyone gets to experience their last trip to the toilet before dying, so I guess its not wrong.

All this chart says is death is the absorbing state and we all converge there regardless of excrement consistency.
