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 live in London and recently moved out of my houseshare. We advertised my room on Spareroom.co.uk and got a number of applicants. We chose someone to move in, who we didn't know and didn't have much information about beyond her profile. While helping her unpack, and chatting, we realised we had both previously lived in a different major city in the UK. In the same area. Then we found out we knew some of the same people. And then we found out that her twin sister is now going out with my ex.
