<p>About two or three hours ago I read a question on "why Hamiltonian Monte Carlo works, in plain english" or something like that. I had an idea for an answer and a couple references, but I can't find it anymore. It must have been closed or deleted. Is there any way to find out? I understand that if the question had been closed a day or a week ago, it would probably be impossible, but since the event is relatively recent, maybe it's not the case.</p>
