Batman has changed a lot on the big screen in the last decade. Just eight years ago, we were all breathlessly anticipating Christian Bale’s final outing in The Dark Knight Rises, which was promised to be the “end of the legend.” Even so, we’ve seen the character rebooted twice since then, with Robert Pattinson’s latest take in Matt Reeves’ The Batman leaving fans salivating. Still, there is a real love for Bale’s Batman and the Christopher Nolan trilogy he inhabited....

Math and humanity aren’t fundamentally at odds. In fact, numbers and human beings have forged some useful partnerships over the years. Humanity and our friendly integer friends have built cities together, gone to the moon together, and have consistently bid the correct amount on Double Jeopardy together. Sometimes, however, our relationship with numbers becomes toxic. Hulu’s NYPD corruption documentary Crime + Punishment is in a sense the story of that relationship going haywire and the statistics crushing us under their fascistic numerical boots....
