I'm starting to take this "blogging" thing more seriously, but I keep getting fleeting ideas for things to write about, and then when it comes time to write something I can never remember any of them.

So this is where I'll put cryptic, and not so cryptic, notes about things I could/should write about:

  • Monty Hall
    • 10 bucket, two choice variant
    • Richard Wiseman
    • Tanya
    • The Tuesday Boy
    • Car/Key/Goat
  • Survivorship bias, startups, and Bayesian analysis.
  • Using a river to find the earth's radius
  • Fourier, the spring, the string, and the pendulum.
  • Glueing together the edges of squares
    • and other shapes
    • filling in holes
    • classifying surfaces
    • locally one-sided?
  • Proof that | [0,1)^2 | == |[0,1)|
    • Not the interleaving, as that doesn't work
      • ... or use that one and fix it so it does work.
  • There exists a transcendental
  • Dedekind cuts
  • The Triangles
    • Hill-Climbing / Hill-Descending
    • Spikey Spheres
    • 1800-dimensional optimisation
    • Image approximation
  • The tension between explaining clearly,
    and helping to develop proof skills
  • Decision tree in business
  • RANT: developers should be made to use slow machines.

I did have more but, somewhat ironically, I can't remember them ...
