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've worked at an ice cream shop all summer. A few weeks ago my sister went on vacation to Virginia Beach for five days. While she was on trip we got a new flavor: peach sorbet. My sister like peaches, sure, but not more than the next person and it's especially not something I would usually think to get her. However, when I saw it I thought "my sister would really like this flavor, I should get her some". On the day she was coming back I went into work and grabbed her a pint. We were sitting in the kitchen eating the sorbet and told me how on Saturday (when we had gotten the flavor) she had been craving peaches. We hadn't talked since she got back from the trip.
