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.
So, earlier in the week, my best friend messaged me asking if I was listening to music at the time. At the time, I wasn't, but I did have the song "Savior" by Rise Against stuck in my head, so I told him I wasn't listening to music, but I had a song stuck in my head. He asked what song I had stuck in my head and I told him. He then sent me a screenshot from before I had told him which song, and in it, he had written "savior rise against". He then said he had had the song in his head earlier and started playing it to get it out of his head but that doing so made it worse. The reason he ended up asking me about it was because we've had similar coincidences before, but we hadn't thought to write it down before asking before this.
