Isn't he allowed a vacation from work for once? Or, he could be ill, or someone in his family could need him right now... just let him have his time off.
This is the first time I’ve heard Ainissa Ramirez and she quickly captured my attention. I feel like I could listen to her talk as religiously as I listen to Star Talk. She knows so many interesting facts!
The version of the story that I heard was that during World War II, a researcher was working on optimizing a magnetron for radars when he discovered that a chocolate bar in his shirt/lab coat pocket started to melt. He later used one for heating water for coffee/tea in his research lab. This could be apocryphal., though.
Wheres Chuck. Hes so corny and i just love it. Oh well. I guess we will see how funny this lady is. Either way you just know you about to learn something interesting for sure.
It's important to note that Chuck comes across "corny" because it is not a stand up comedy gig, it is a science based discussion show. That limits joke potential greatly. Not to mention, they need to keep monetization of their channel. If Chuck were unleashed and un-tethered, people would not dislike him so much. Check out his stand up away from this show. Try not to judge based on limited data. I'm not saying anyone will like him any more or less. Just that there is a time and a place. And a lot of the time, this show is neither. He has a wide range of comedic ability. But respecting a show which gives you a paycheck is a smart move. Basically, he can't use all the jokes he thinks of during one of these episodes. As a result, corniness and joke bombing has greater potential.
Vibrations in nuclei of soft tissue is what my entire PhD is focusing on! Love MRI machines and all they do for medicine, but you put it in a whole new perspective! Thanks Neil!!
I tried convincing adults during my grade school years that videogames can be great educational training tools. I learned so many things from reading videogame dialogue and understanding how physics work on a fundamental level. Sure it looks like you are just having fun, but you are actually learning things! Back during the 90s though, you weren't convincing adults of that.
15:50 I love Neil and his guests, but man...not everyone is using the internet for zoned out brain candy (which is what it seems that they are implying). RUclips has amazing content creators that use the net and it takes them days, weeks, months to compile data and images for a 15 minute informational, philosophical, or even science video. Some are Patreon, some not. Then there are people off RUclips that spend so much time on their websites and so forth. I feel the guests are really missing the point and probably really don't get on the internet very much.
I agree with what you're saying but to add to what the guest was saying, when you look at the entirety of internet activity most of it is viral cat videos and RUclips suggestions that you wouldn't be sad about missing. But yes, there is informative, interesting content out there
I would argue that language would be our finest technological achievement. You cant even imagine how the world would be different if we couldn't discuss abstract thought or prior experiences.
47:30 I work in autonomy tech and this trolley problem discussion is pointless. Essentially, if your car has arrived as a point where it must make this kind of life or death decision, it has messed up in SO MANY WAYS that the actual decision is meaningless. "If an airplane fails so utterly that it must choose between crashing Into a hospital or a school, which which it hit?"
People don't want to realise that humans are a lot more dangerous than A.I. A human might run someone over if it means getting to their meeting on time. An autonomous vehicle will just put on the brakes until the obstacle is out of the way.
First it would require human level pattern recognition to actually make out what something is. Because a misclassified shopping bag floating in air is not worth braking for.
Some of my college professors had a similar attitude to Einstein. They didn't really care if you memorized a lot of the figures, so long as you knew how to use them. When would you need to know a complex chemical equation and didn't have access to at least a book with that information?
And it seems very logical in those scenarios and probably why Einstein would've said it, however, with something like recording all your memories, what then? You would be able to look up any interaction with anyone. How do you think that effect people
@@sebastiansanchez8752 While that isn't pertinent to my statement, I would think you would still need to know how to apply the information for many situations. Those are two different things, however. One is the validity of rote memorization of basic facts, the other is knowledge of processes and how to apply them.
I live in my car to this day, watching you and other science channels on RUclips here in California. I still try to be a productive part of Society, made $3500+ a month before the coronaverse. I'm only living in my car to save money up to put down on a house.
Hi Neil! Please answer this question: Since the mass of the Sun can distort space and time, then can the mass of the milky way (or galaxies) distort space and time, relatively? And if galaxies can distort space and time, then what is the natural state of space and time beyond galaxies?
Hey guys, question about zero point energy and the zero point energy field. I recently learned of this, but don’t quite understand it, would you be able to explain what you know about it and how it works? And is it really possible to harness it to use as an energy source for civilization?
Using the internet to play games was an excellent point. The number one category in the Apple App Store (as an example) is ‘Games’ by far! Thankfully I can brag I have 1 game, Chess on my iPhone and the rest of my apps are productivity apps.
I agree. I am convinced that maths have reached me through games. Crunching percentages/decimals/fractions through optimizing gear is routine in games. And fun. I can do this specifically, in my head. Imagine if school was that fun. What is the limit then?
Neil's personality in a scientist is something special. The fact that his guests are also well educated and hilarious works wonders for the flow of the show
She’s absolutely right technology really does change us as a species. My great grandmother can remember 30 different phone numbers because she doesn’t use her cell phone if she wants to call someone she literally remembers their phone number off the top of her head she’s 94 years old. I’m 37 years old I can’t tell you 5 different phone numbers in my phone right now.
I am 14 and live in Jamestown ND, and I saw a news comment about the Pentagon releasing info on a fly object not from this world, is this true, what are you thoughts.
Great idea! For the dark side of the Universe - suppose that it consists of short-term interactions in moving - long-lived fractal networks, the smallest quantum operators in terms of energy - spherical rosebuds, consisting of a large set; 1 - rolled into a sphere, 2 - half folded into a sphere and 3 - flat, vibrating quantum membranes relative to the CENTER of energy in the sphere and at the quantum string between the connected spheres.
Okay. The planet you were meant to be on was one that just developed to the point of creating life. The future you were meant for is one where you write a comment on this video.
Always old fashion of learning help you to understand deeply about anything which exists in our nature, that means your brains can keeps the information more and longer , because doing it in a natural ways
I didn't realize that we didn't know how to make steel until the 1700's (eye roll). Maybe for mass production, but we've produced steel for a looooooot longer
I was a bit surprised that an engineer suggests that the ancient steelmaking hasn't existed and the mass production in the late 1800's happened a hundred years before
Quick question: Is the creative nature of humans will be their inevitable end and universe's way of correcting it's timeline? And by the way love startalk.
Jon Ireson I’m still baffled by the extremely long pull out at the end; of the two children. It’s like there’s some profound point i’m supposed to get but it’s just flying by me. Also I really wanna know how the field stops electronics but not the electrical network in the humans
Depending on your definition of technology, I’d argue language is the technology that propelled human society the most. Isaac Newton once said if he’s seen further than others, it was because he stood on the shoulders of giants. That’s not exactly true; there are no giants, but there are thousands of generations that each pushed society a little bit higher. This all happened through the exchange of ideas, which would not happen at all if not for language. It doesn’t matter how smart you are if you can’t communicate your ideas. Also, that Dean Kamen quote implies that commodities being common means we don’t have to worry about the gap between the haves and the have-nots, which simply isn’t true. A homeless person can watch Netflix and still be homeless is because Netflix is much cheaper than a home, but they are still homeless and that’s still a problem. Of course, Dean Kamen would rather you not worry about the gap between the haves and have-nots because he is one of the haves.
19:01 - I’d like to weigh in on this one and say it’s the pen and paper. The ability to not lose information over the generations to me feels like the most notable advancement in technology. It’s tough refuting Neil’s point, but I think it’s crucial that we don’t lose advancements once we’ve made them. I think if we lost the conceptualization of the wheel, as smart as we are now I’d think we’d not lose too much time conceiving of the wheel again. However take that notion to general relativity and where are we? The subtler natures of the universe take a bit more intuition to perceive our own perception of. It’s hard to quantify how much intuition and who may have the proper amount, if proper amount could even be a thing.
"Any technology that is sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic" - Arthur C Clark Nowadays a lot of our technology is so far advanced that to most people it is just magic. eg. a basic TV... most people have the vague basic understanding that electricity and some sort of signal goes in, but to most people what happens inside the TV to turn that into the video that we can watch is technological magic. To some people even the basic light bulb is viewed the same way....
19:01 the answer should be agriculture. Without enough food to feed everyone, and that transition from hunter gatherers to people living in communities, most things we know would not have come about.
Funny how they are talking about "we're not using the internet in a useful way" on a podcast about science technology and education, that 92 thousand people thusfar have watched and become smarter by watching. I know its popular to joke about memes and fortnite. But that isnt the reality. The reality is that the internet HAS raised peoples ability for personal self-education and access to knowledge in ways it never had before in human history.
The next big challenge is holding back technology & our desire for ease. To be happy requires work & strife so if we have fully automated everything to cater to all our needs then we lose our drive & will to go further. So to progress we must generate new resistance to progress. Some could say we live in that time now by using artificial scarcity & other tactics of strife but it won't last because in order to progress requires success. Is there a cancellation point? idk.
If hypothetically you could stay in one spot in the air for 24 for hours or more, would you travel different time zones or would the gravitational pull of the earth keep you in the same spot in correlation to where where you originally took off at.
depends on what you mean by one spot. One spot in space relative to the earth? In that case, since the earth is rotating around the sun you would pretty quickly leave the atmosphere, because you are stationary but the earth is moving still. But lets suppose you are stationary relative to the earth's center but not its spin, in that instance yes you would change time zones, however the relative velocity of the air (which is moving along with the earth's spin) will be so high that you probably wouldn't be alive. Now if you are stationary relative to earth's surface, in that case you would just be floating in air, no change in time zones. TL;DR if you are just floating in space , you will leave earth, because it is moving around the sun, and you are not moving along with it and you will die. If you in one spot, but not rotating along with the earth, you will change time zones , but will again die. If you are rotating along with earth you will not change time zones. Note: This is all assuming that you are somehow negating the effect of gravity, by accelerating in the direction opposite to it, because we are pretty much locked in earth's gravity well and the third scenario is what you will observe.
To think not long after this neurolink was announced, I wonder if they knew about that when this was recorded or if it would change this entire conversation
1. The dark energy of the universe is the transition of entropy from the dark side of the universe to the visible. 2. Quantum "rosebuds" are connected by flat quantum membranes forming quantum strings. 3. Einstein’s smooth space in a quantum universe, collected by fractals from a quantum “rosebuds” connected by quantum strings. 4. Quantum gravity - works like yes, the energy center in the quantum "rose bud" drifts relative to the beginning of the energy level, the quantum of membranes.

If you in one spot, but not rotating along with the earth, you will change time zones , but will again die. If you are rotating along with earth you will not change time zones.
Note: This is all assuming that you are somehow negating the effect of gravity, by accelerating in the direction opposite to it, because we are pretty much locked in earth's gravity well and the third scenario is what you will observe.
Excellent talk.
this was really good!!! the mood!
this is a very nice vid and i really liked Ainissa Ramirez
also can you do one in corona verse with paul rudd or trevor noah ?
We have to be one step forward from technology
I’m wired to remember my parents’ phone numbers. It happened completely on accident.
if they change you will forget it, probably will start remembering after dialing thrice or more or better to not save it :p
shubham sharma Yeah, probably.
@@RandomPerson-el8gv or keep repeatedly thinking the same number over and over again till it gets memorized.
@@shubhamsharma-yy1lo That's kind of how "memorizing" something works.
This is... Alot slower than I thought itd be
A few minutes in I headed to the comments... So I agree, not much going on
Cause we got Negin instead of Chuck. I'm sorry but it's true.
@@marqqqddr absolutely correct
Where is the link to the BOOK???
Now I'm just asking but, what are those yin/yang like pictures behind niel called?
To think not long after this neurolink was announced, I wonder if they knew about that when this was recorded or if it would change this entire conversation
1. The dark energy of the universe is the transition of entropy from the dark side of the universe to the visible.
2. Quantum "rosebuds" are connected by flat quantum membranes forming quantum strings.
3. Einstein’s smooth space in a quantum universe, collected by fractals from a quantum “rosebuds” connected by quantum strings.
4. Quantum gravity - works like yes, the energy center in the quantum "rose bud" drifts relative to the beginning of the energy level, the quantum of membranes.
I really liked the new comedian, Negin... She is quite sharp but funny!
Great talk! Thanks NDGT.
Neil is talking about internet chips in our brains like there isn't already access to Internet right on our palms 24/7
