  • Interesting

    Enjoy listening to intelligent people discuss their passions but discouraged by lack of concern about the energy used to find prime numbers and the impact on everyone else’s environment - just to have fun and get bragging rights.

  • It's interesting listening to this episode some years after the event, with Covid 19 in the rear window, or rather we try to think it's gone when it's actively hanging around.

  • Absolutely horrendous

    I cannot believe I even tried to listen to this garbage. They have absolutely no idea how to teach math, stick to YouTube.

I’m interested in differential privacy and its connections to robust statistics.
Counting Crayons - with Po-Ling Loh
Q: What is differential privacy?
It's a method used by large tech companies to protect personal data ensuring that the inclusion of any individual's data does not affect the output too much.
Counting Crayons - with Po-Ling Loh
Q: Did you have other interests and passions, or were you just like, it was always going to be numbers?
I explored around a little bit but was eventually drawn back to math due to my brothers’ competitive math interests.
