As a math major, I found this pretty awesome. It’s about the uneven distribution of numbers in the world starting with different digits. For example, you’d think that if you picked a number at random (not from your head, from a separate source like a newspaper or the internet), the odds of it starting with a 1 would be 11.1%, or 1/9 (one of nine digits, 1-9).
