Reoccuring "coincidences"

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'm a female. My best friend (who is male) and I keep having these simultaneous events. for example if i were to check my laptop once in a while and i had opened a chat with him, it would say that he's either typing or has sent a message the minute i checked my laptop. We also finish tasks at the same time and if i had a certain food for dinner, within a day or two he'd have the same thing (this would be without either of us having any knowledge of what the other had eaten). Does this mean something or is it just pure coincidence?
