Milan Janosov | 1 comments Hi Guys, I was wondering if there is a way to get a random set of authors' profile (with author.show()), when we can be sure the subset is random.

It looks like e.g. Orwell's id is 3706 (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...), 1113706 refers to Wilson Neate, 113715 is empty. while 300706 is Norlin G. Rueschhoff. So apparently, the id numbers are not uniformly distributed within certain range. Do we know anything about how they are?

Thanks!
