      This is probably the most inappropriate usage of the awful word " dude" I've ever heard.
      It's so overused, just like the word" bunch" !!! I've heard a chemist saying " then add a bunch of water " ???? How did he pass his chemistry exam, working with bunches of water.
      " I was like" is probably first o my list of disliked words or phrases.
      People in the USA ( don't call them Americans as you'll upset all the other countries in the Americas [ North America and South America] can have a nicely flowing conversation anymore.
      Their every sentence starts with " I was like : nooooo and she was like : what, no way; so I went ok then and she goes, I was like no way yesterday and you went : I don't care! Was you drunk?
      This is a transcript of two adults trying to have a deep conversation.
      I think, they could have been saved by a five year old, who could have been a great help,' teaching them how to string coherent sentences.

    I remember when I was young, and had to go out to work as soon as I possibly could to look after my brother & my mother after my father died, working as what was known as a ‘painter & decorator ‘ in an apprenticeship. Feeding my hunger for reading in dribs & drabs at lunch breaks , or Saturday trips to the library. And feeling so overwhelmed , and delighted , to be able to ‘sneak’ in a listen to professors in amphitheatres whenever we had a contract to work in the university. The glares & sniggers of the students made me so ashamed & embarrassed, though, that I often had to make myself scarce as quickly as possible. And now I can finally have the opportunity to sit down and listen, I disturbed. Thank you, RUclips.

    I have chronic pain and a lot of trouble sleeping. Getting to sleep, staying asleep. It’s all a mess. I found this a couple weeks ago and it works better than most things I’ve tried. I I turn it on loop and let it repeat all night. I’ve been in a particularly bad flare recently and this is still helping me to sleep a few hours at a time. Thanks so much for this one!

    Many have pointed out that this is not actually a math lecture but about Minsky's career and the history of AI. However i recently learned that the math written on the board is the axiom of sigma additivity of probability, which states that the union of a set of disjoint probabilities is equal to the sum of those probabilities. For example: flipping a coin, the probabilities are 1/2 for heads and 1/2 for tails, but the probability of heads OR tails = 1/2 + 1/2 = 2/2 = 1.
