End-of-week Linkage


Been busier-than-usual this week with pickleball and tennis, but still found time to collect some math items:

1)   Ben Orlin describes mathematics in the classroom, as only he can:
2)  Jason Rosenhouse talks about the Monty Hall problem:
3)  "Statistical dirty laundry" from Deborah Mayo (lots of interesting stuff on the research and replicability arena):

4)  Nice Tom Siegfried piece on the need for Bayesian statistics in the courtroom:

5)  After the exciting NBA finals, Jordan Ellenberg couldn't help but try to improve (mathematically-speaking) NBA basketball:
6)  Interview with the President of AMS:
8)  The 99th "Math Teachers At Play" blog carnival:

9)  And each week, reading Mike's Math Page is like reading a one-man math carnival:
Potpourri BONUS! (extra NON-mathematical links of interest):

1)  Last year "Invisibilia" seemed to pop out of nowhere fully-formed, as one of the finest shows among NPR's incredible stable of hour-length offerings. It's back for its second season and if you've somehow missed it, off to a great start:

2) Vi Hart speaks about the tragedy of the Orlando shootings in one of her more serious postings:
