Show HN: I Ching simulator with accurate Yarrow Stalk probabilities

I Ching simulator with accurate Yarrow Stalk probabilities is a business in show hn launch.

Profile

I built this because I wanted a digital I Ching that honors the original math, rather than just Math.random().Technical detail for the curious:The simulation follows the traditional Yarrow Stalk algorithm (Da Yan). The core of this algorithm relies on modulo-4 arithmetic on the stalks remaining after a random split.To make it physically realistic, I used a Box-Muller transform to simulate the user splitting the stalks with a Gaussian distribution (since humans naturally tend to split near the middle), rather than a uniform random split.I was worried this 'human bias' might skew the modulo probabilities, so I ran a 1-million-run Monte Carlo simulation to verify.The Result: The remainders [0,1
