Aug 26, 2022 at 0:22 comment added dotdashdashdash ah, nvm, I see it - you can see $p_n$ is orthogonal to any monomial in $\{1, ..., x^{n-1}\}$ by just taking the expectation and noting that the bottom row is now a bunch of moments equal to one of the above rows, so the determinant's zero, and that's enough. sweet trick. thanks!
