In knot theory, there are different ways to define a limit Posted on 2022/03/15 by Carl Robitaille Reply In knot theory, there are different ways to define a limit. The "geometric limit" looks at hyperbolic geometry of the knot exterior. The geometry of the exterior of twist knots looks more and more like (ie almost isometric to) the geometry of the exterior of the Whitehead link.— Jessica S Purcell (@JessicaSPurcel1) March 6, 2022

If the annual probability for some event is 1%, then the cumulative probability that this event happens within 100 years is 63%. Posted on 2022/03/15 by Carl Robitaille Reply It's not very intuitive how large the cumulative probability of an event is for which the annual probability is low. So I made this chart.If the annual probability for some event is 1%, then the cumulative probability that this event happens within 100 years is 63%. pic.twitter.com/DIxyurBzpo— Max Roser (@MaxCRoser) March 4, 2022
Why don’t Jigsaw Puzzles have the correct number of pieces? Posted on 2022/03/15 by Carl Robitaille Reply My latest video introduces a sassy new AI bot that has opinions. It’s named “JIG”, which is pronounced exactly the same as GIF backwards. https://t.co/UdGwfDfs8l— Matt Parker (@standupmaths) March 3, 2022
