    The Remedios Varo Exhibit (Chicago, US ) took my breath away. Just Wow I see it's closed now. keep a tab open, and see it in person one day if you can

      Never heard if Varo, so I did a search. Her work reminds me of Salvador Dali.

    Observe that Dr Aracute's shirt is very fractal-like. 🙂

    The actual lecture starts around 32:00, before that point there is a lot of noise. Interesting and entertaining, but mostly off topic, thus noise. Not the best style.

      I think it was necessary especially on this technical issue like this one. You can see how she was avoiding math formulas for audience outside her field like me but I respect your opinion if one want has already headstart for this topic

      Agreed. There was no motivating question or problem making us aware why this matters for anything.

    Bit of a question you would know, given the UNIVERSAL demographic data about populations that primarily reside in cities, shrinking and collapsing across the world, with birthrates being below that needed to even maintain the population, do you know of cities across history even into the ancient world that expanded, sucked up all the populations from the surrounding farms and became unlivable, resulting in a catastrphic collapse? Are cities human roach motels?

    Nuclear electricity proliferation to stop CO2 proliferation also means national transmission grid proliferation.
    The existing national electric grid is fragile because it is extremely, extremely expensive.
    Never overbuilt because enough to do the job was expensive.
    No fossil fuels means 5fold bigger electric demand and 5times bigger capacity national electrical grid capacity.
    The electricity grid is fractal and also invisible to most people. Particularly when underground.
    Basically every building in the UK is connected to the national grid.
    Do you have information on this???

    It seems weird to say, but facials are what makes maths real to me😅

    How does the remainder of Nature survive without advanced maths? How did homo sapiens sapiens survive 600+ thousand years without equations?

      In the same way you are able to throw a ball to a friend without running a calculation every time. Maths and equations are excellent terms to discuss and also reference the world, but aren't absolutely required to operate in it.

      @@cirick1696 You understand that maths isn't reality, instead only human interpretations of reality; just as time doesn't exist outside of moments of life-passed (what's the exact time at the N/S poles?).

    We know where the world is headed when videos like this spur a discussion of a whole dozen comments. But a guy filming himself driving recklessly gets a million views and thousands of comments.

      RUclips started as a dating site iirc, the fact that there is a channel for the royal institution on this platform given its origin suggests to me things are moving in the right direction.
