This explained to me his veering away from an academic career to get involved in computer pedagogy. His hearing was worsening with time. It is hard to imagine being a professor with reduced auditory function in one ear (in spite of a hearing aid) and none in the other.

Every few years, I make a new List of 100 Dreams. This exercise, shared with me years ago by career coach Caroline Ceniza-Levine, is a completely unedited list of things I’d like to do in my life. It’s a bucket list but a vastly longer bucket list than most people get around to making, which is why I put watching Casablanca on there. It also includes more usual suspects like visiting wineries in Oregon and seeing Yellowstone in the fall.

Many to-do list items are tragically vague. Think “research new career options” or even “work on resume.” In these cases, it’s unclear what actions you’re supposed to take or how you will know when you are done, which makes it hard to get started.

Watching Casablanca would take exactly one hour and 42 minutes. Visiting those wineries and Yellowstone took days out of my schedule, not to mention thousands of dollars in travel costs, and yet I have done both of them.

And a special gratitude to Stephen Wolfram, Jeremy Sykes and Mads Bahrami for ensuring that Cut-the-Knot stays alive and that this book sees the day. Additional thanks to Paige Bremmer,Glenn Schloebo, and other members of Wolfram Media for editing the manuscript.

Why did I start nicknaming him Maestro? Because it was pretty much literal: he played math like a master would with a musical instrument –and mostly to himself. He was physically bothered by a sloppy derivation or an error, as if he heard a jarring note in the middle of a sonata. It was a joy to see someone so much in sync with his subject matter –and totally uncorrupted by the academic system.

My accountability partner, Katherine Lewis, and I have checked in with each other weekly for years. Early in our relationship, she set a goal to land a book deal. She carved out time on Friday afternoons to work on pitches for meaty magazine articles that might become the basis for a book. Then, week after week, she didn’t do it. As she explained to me, the problem with Friday afternoons was that all the incomplete tasks of the week, both professional and personal, piled up into those last few hours. So by the time her desk was clear, it was 4 p.m. or 5 p.m. on Friday, and it felt futile to rev back up.

He was neither interested in money nor rank –something refreshing as I was only exposed to academics who whether they admit it or not, are obsessed with both. When I asked him about commercializing his website cut-the-knot his answer was “I have two pensions. Next year I turn seventy”. He wasn’t interested in poisoning his life for more money.

Now, probability. In one conversation, I mentioned to him that probability riddles would be very useful for people who want to get into the most scientifically applicable scientific subject in the world (my very, very biased opinion). What I said earlier about play is even more applicable to probability, a field that really started with gamblers, used by traders and adventurers, and perfected by finance and insurance mathematicians. Probability applies to all empirical fields: gambling, finance, medicine, engineering, social science, risk, linguistics, genetics, car accidents. Let’s play with it by adding to his feed some probability riddles.

You probably have your own Casablanca — something that keeps getting bumped forward. Maybe it’s a bucket list item, or maybe it’s just something on your weekly or daily to-do lists. It’s easy to feel bad when you’re copying the item onto a new list yet again. But when you keep bumping something forward, the key is to pay attention. You just might learn something about yourself.

It’s more motivating to see something specific and doable, such as “ask three friends what kind of work they think I’d be happiest doing” or “look up sales figures for the last five years to put on my resume.” Better yet, add a spot on the schedule and a time estimate. If you know you’re supposed to spend 30 minutes looking up those sales figures on Thursday at 2 p.m., it’s less likely to get bumped to the next week again.

The excessive overkill of the two women painted a violent scene. The investigation concluded the killer entered by removing a window screen and either entered earlier in the evening and waited for the girls to return or had entered while they were sleeping.

I met him in an Italian restaurant in New Jersey. I was surprised to see a mathematician who looked much more like a maturing actor than someone in a technical specialty: tall, athletic, jovial, and with a charismatic presence. But, as he had warned me, he had a severe hearing problem, the result of a medical treatment for the flu.
