Hacks
from Uncertain Age · host Uncertain Age
Welcome to Uncertain Age! This week, AR (Anna) Nicholas and Dale Basye go through the motions to review the HBO Max show Hacks, the acclaimed comedy-drama series that follows Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), a legendary stand-up comedian at a career crossroads, and Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), a young, struggling writer. Does the show keenly tackle aging, fame, and the evolving nature of comedy, or is it an overrated exercise in schmaltz and cliché? Find out on Uncertain Age! And if there’s a movie, show, or podcast you’d like us to review, let us know at [email protected]!

Managing Next Generation Energy Systems
Cambridge University
Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation. This knowledge exchange workshop was part of the four months Res

TomCattt
Thomas Patton
From the beginning music has prowled with accordion lessons at a young age, followed by sax, blues harp and more recently piano, vocals, song writing and recording. Thomas Patton (AKA TomCattt) credits his mother for his stage name "TomCattt” as she was big on nick names for those she held close to her heart. TomCattt's music is best described as easy listening and sometimes retro, yet with a contemporary mix and feel. Accompanied by the creative tracks of a number of gifted musicians, his first album Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa inspires imagination and finds a way to impress with a unique vocal sound, compelling harmony and gripping melody. The lyrical content is in fact a living reflection of this artists emotional journey that followed leaving love, finding a new love only to lose love once again. Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa was released on June 1st, 2013 and all are invited to Soundcloud, Bandcamp, ReverbNation and Cdbaby where "A Question" is free download and to enjoy TomCattt's website tomcattt.com.
