understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
It happens very often. I'm thinking of something quite random and then it happens. Most Common:
I see someone I think is someone I know who I have met before (sometimes a very vague connection). It turns out I am mistaken and it isn't that person...BUT then almost immediately I come across the actual person that I first thought of, or who i thought I'd seen moments earlier! It happens so often, there must be something to it. I expect you'll say that there are also times when I think of a person or mistake someone for them and then I don't meet them...But honestly this really happens very often..please explain!
