A world map of 303 mathematical conjectures: where and when they arose and when they were solved. Spin the globe, filter by era and play it through time.
Explore the map →More than 300 mathematical conjectures placed on the map and in time. What the atlas shows, how it was built, and the limitations of its data.
Read article →How a simple question about whether a set belongs to itself brought down the foundations of mathematics —and how ZFC rebuilt them.
Read article →A conjecture is neither a truth nor a mistake: it's an educated bet about a pattern. How conjectures are formulated, how they're tested, and why they matter to anyone who models data.
Read article →From the raw Data Lake to the Lakehouse: open table formats, open catalogs, generative AI, and decentralization with Data Mesh and data contracts.
Read article →Practical principles for building data pipelines that don't break with every schema change.
Read article →A simple, robust method for finding outliers before modeling.
Read article →Understanding gradient descent helps you diagnose why a model doesn't converge.
