Listen to Juan Herrara and Danny Moore discuss pending claims, large claims, and using predictive analytics and other modeling techniques to develop these estimates.

Recently back from the World Statistics Congress, David and James reflect on the significance of this event, which brings together statisticians and the broader statistics community to share knowledge, foster collaborations, and advance the field. They discuss the evolving relationship between statistics and data science, highlighting the importance of both fields in the era of big data. They also explore the role of the International Association for Statistical Education (IASE) and the

Send us a text So, I’m sitting here with my coffee, reflecting on how surreal it feels that Word Problem Workshop is finally a real book — something teachers can actually hold in their hands. Before it hits shelves, I wanted to take you behind the scenes of how it came to life: the “why,” the “how,” and the “who” behind every page. If you’ve ever felt like your students just don’t get it, this episode — and this book — are for you. 🔗 Ready to Dive In? If you’ve ever watched your students

Send us a text In this episode of the Living Proof podcast we're delighted to meet Moustapha Fall. Moustapha is the Center President of the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) in Senegal and winner of a prestigious Ramanujan Prize for Young Mathematicians from Developing Countries. He also plays an important role on the international stage as Member-at-Large of the Executive Committee of the International Mathematical Union. Moustapha talks to us about about the amazing institu...

We dissect Francois Fleuret's Free Transformer, which injects a learned latent variable Z into autoregressive generation via a tiny CVAE-like encoder. With only one extra non-causal block, it introduces minimal overhead yet unlocks high-level planning that improves reasoning on benchmarks. We compare latent planning to explicit chain-of-thought and ponder how combining latent and explicit reasoning could unlock new capabilities. Note: This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make ...

Lightning isn’t just the flash we see at the surface—it's the electrical heartbeat inside a storm. In this episode, we explore the GOES-16 Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), a near-infrared camera that watches total lightning continuously from space, updating every 20 seconds with roughly 10-km resolution. Learn how GLM’s intra-cloud flashes reveal a storm’s updrafts and intensification minutes before the first ground strike, how rapid increases in flash rate relate to severity, and why th...

We dive into Google's Quantum Echoes algorithm and its claim of a verifiable quantum speedup on real hardware using the Willow chip. Learn how Out-of-Time-Order Correlators map information scrambling, and how time-reversal echoes create a repeatable, benchmarkable signal. From 28-atom molecular rulers to potential breakthroughs in drug discovery and materials science, we explore what verifiable quantum advantage means for scaling, error suppression, and the path to fault-tolerant quantum comp...

Diagenesis is the hidden engine that reshapes sediments after deposition, turning loose grains into rock and setting the stage for oil and gas, while also altering ancient bones. We unpack the core processes—compaction, water–rock interactions, and microbial activity—and dive into replacement (permineralization), the oil window, and the stages of diagenesis from early to deep burial. We also explore how diagenesis preserves or erases skeletal material, influencing dating and isotope work. A c...

In this engaging conversation, Rachel Ignotofski discusses her new book Dinosaurs, exploring the fascination with these ancient creatures, the impact of mass extinctions, and the evolution of life on Earth. She highlights the importance of paleontology, the legacy of Mary Anning, and the artistic choices made in illustrating the book. The discussion also touches on the audience for the book, quirky anecdotes from paleontological history, and the significance of understanding deep time in relation to

In this episode of "In the Interim…", Dr. Scott Berry interviews Dr. Andrew Thomson, owner and lead consultant of Regnitio. Thomson discusses his academic progression from mathematics at Cambridge to a Master’s at Southampton and advanced study with Prof. Sylvia Richardson at Imperial College, followed by doctoral work in cluster randomized trials at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. He recounts the realities of regulatory roles, including contemplative study of data,

In this episode of Math! Science! History!, Gabrielle Birchak speaks with Professor Gillen D’Arcy Wood, author of The Wake of the HMS Challenger: How a Legendary Victorian Voyage Tells the Story of Our Ocean’s Decline. Together, they uncover how a nineteenth-century Royal Navy warship transformed into a floating laboratory and gave humanity its first global snapshot of the oceans. From discovering thousands of new species to inspiring NASA’s Challenger shuttle, the expedition shaped modern

We unpack Next.js 16’s foundational shifts—from performance becoming the default (TurboPack bundling and React compiler integration) to explicit caching with useCache and the renamed middleware proxy.ts. We explore routing advances (layout deduplication and incremental prefetching), DX improvements via the Model Context Protocol for AI-assisted debugging. Next.js 16 introduces several significant updates and changes, focusing on performance, developer experience, and architectural impro...

A deep dive into the Brontosaurus saga—from Marsh’s 1879 naming and the 1903 ruling that Brontosaurus was a junior synonym of Apatosaurus, through skull-mismatch displays, to the 2015 study that resurrected Brontosaurus excelsus as a distinct genus. We’ll unpack the anatomical differences that sparked the comeback—especially the robust neck and the neck-combat ideas—the tail hypotheses, and what this debate reveals about how science settles on names, while public memory keeps the giant alive....

A deep dive into the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Milky Way’s close galactic neighbor. We explore its impressive size, warped disk and tidal tug‑of‑war with the Milky Way and SMC, the Tarantula Nebula, and SN 1987A. We also examine the surprising evidence for a central black hole (~600,000 solar masses), how it may eject hypervelocity stars, and the dramatic forecast that the LMC will merge with the Milky Way in about 2.4 billion years, reshaping our galactic neighborhood. Note: This podcast w...
