Veritasium - What is NOT random?
Explains some fundamentally interesting things, changed my life a bit…
The Salad Fingers saga.
I love salad fingers! Definitely a good watch.
How to adjust side mirrors
I was really hoping this was a howtobasic video
Mathematical proof (that a high school dropout can follow) of just how deranged the idea of continuous growth is.
What’s shocking is just how far our mathematically illiterate intuitions are from the implications, like:
Half of all of the resources that are ever available are consumed in the final doubling period.
Continuous growth at any rate leads to a catastrophically sudden collapse in the resources that feed that growth.A petri dish is empty at 11:00, a single bacteria splits once per minute, the dish is full at 12:00.
At what time was the dish half full? 11:59.
If you were a bacteria in this experiment, at what time would you start to notice you’re running out of space?“Don’t Talk to the Police”
A classic.
The very first YouTube video: Me at the zoo
Horses, Peacefully Farting and Snoring
It’s not the best video in this thread, it has it’s own touches of style which some will like and some won’t, there are probably even better examples on the same topic, but if I have to pick a general, worthwhile video applicable to everyone reading this:
Why The Political Compass is Wrong: Establishing An Accurate Model of Political Ideology
I know that video id
Most fern videos
Why? They’re often a bit sloppily researched. Most videos of them have minor corrections in the comments. I’m starting to think they’re doing this because of engagement bait.
