Insane thought vibes

As of the 23rd May 2022 this website is archived and will receive no further updates.

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.

I was with my best friend just chatting, drinking water, sitting etc. and a man walked past in a Stone Roses t-shirt, so I was thinking to myself, "What's my favourite Stone Roses song?" I was thinking of 'Elephant Stone', except a slight mind blank caused me to mix it up with the Tokyo Police Club album 'Elephant Shell'. So my thoughts went a bit like this: "What's my favourite Stone Roses song? Hmm maybe Elephant Shell. No wait, that's Tokyo Police Club" AND THEN my friend, out of nowhere, says, "hurhur, Tokyo Police Club." Left me speechless for a good minute!
