President Jimmy Carter spent a good bit of his post presidency trying to rid the world of some truly awful diseases — things that afflict the poor & powerless like river blindness, Guinea worm & lymphatic filariasis. Not glamorous work, but so important. RIP.

Probabilities are indeed a strange concept. I like to think of them as a confidence level of something happening, or how much of my own money would I stake on them being true (or in the case of an experiment, repeating the same result).
www.nature.com/articles/d41...
loading . . .
Why probability probably doesn’t exist (but it is useful to act like it does)
All of statistics and much of science depends on probability — an astonishing achievement, considering no one’s really sure what it is.
