      This is what happens when you put Neil in the same room as someone smarter than him. He normally surrounds himself with people who know less than him about a topic so he can promote himself as the all-knowing scientist. With someone who knows more he will do his best to not let their brilliance shine through.

      that's where Tyson (a charismatic actor who plays a scientist on tv/radio) comes in. He's appealing because he makes regular folk think they understand shit. I watched his fake ass "debate" "simulation theory" for 2 hours for the Issac Asimov memorial without once pointing out that the Planck legnth is the resolution limit of the simulation that we live in. A P-legnth is a pixel.
      Yep. elon musk is an actor too. In all his simulation bs he's never said anything noteworthy. Just that the odds support it.

      William Faulkner, I just need to say if you do not enjoy the math concepts behind the physics, you like pondering and psuedo-science and not the actual physics. There is no such thing a cryptic math, all math is driven by principles and rules, which is why it is universal (which is why economics is not that different than astrophysics).
      It is not fair or correct to simply say the math formulas is cryptic because you have not learned the concepts, such as integral calculus, trigonometry, etc. That is akin to saying Chinese is cryptic, when in reality it is understood by those who take the time to learn it.

Therefore, how good is our approximation to our reality and is here we find discrepancy, like dark matter and dark energy.

    I too am an overly-polite, soft-spoken guy, so I have been training myself to do the following:
    While speaking, and someone starts to interrupt, I will raise my voice only slightly but otherwise not change my tone or cadence. I will interrupt myself to say, "I am going to continue speaking as if I were not being interrupted."
    I will then do exactly that. I will carry on saying what I intended to (raising voice some more - without shouting or showing any indication of annoyance - if the interruptions from the other person did not cease).
    And here is the very important part: Do not acknowledge the interruption in any further way. Most people will try to apologize for interrupting - ironically interrupting you again to make the apology. Ignore it. Do not allow the other person any chance to make the incident about themselves. That will only encourage more interruptions in the future, because the apology somehow made it okay.
    Don't let bullies bully you. Hit back hard, immediately, as soon as they try and don't allow any further rudeness. Stop it forever.

    I am a big fan of Neil. He's brilliant, insightful, rational, and charming. I enjoy his ideas the most in this forum. (Here comes "but"). But he interrupts far too much. He may need to lay off of the caffeine for an episode or 2 and see how it goes.

    I love hearing each of these gentlemen speak. I believe each of these gentlemen respect each other’s intelligence. But gosh I wish there could be more deference when it comes to allowing a peer, to finish their thought before interrupting.
    Not pointing fingers, hell nobody cares what I think anyway. But sometimes you gotta put aside your need to present new information, in favor of allowing for the fair progression of a conversation.
    When you have that impulse to add information, wether additive, debate or otherwise, just log it and come back to it when your peer has finished their own thought.

    I have a question. The universe is said to be 13.78billion years old, but seeing as we judge a year by how long it takes the earth to orbit our sun, and how time is relative, by which metric are they using to measure the universe to be 13.78billion years old?

    • @StarlightDragon
      @StarlightDragon 7 лет назад +14

      Just because the reference of 1 year, is subjective, does not mean that it's not accurate. You seem to be caught on semantics. Let's say I grab a pinch of sand out of a bucket and say "there are 500 pinches of sand in that bucket" and then a larger man steps in and does the same thing, but his number is 450 pinches, there is still the same amount of sand, just our reference unit is different. So the year is simply a unit in which we describe the time since the big bang, but it IS accurate. If you want to know how they reached that number, both Space Time and the show Cosmos have an episode on measuring the history of the universe. Spacetime is more advanced, but that episode is easy to come to grips with. Cosmos is an enjoyable show, if you haven't seen it.

    • @PolemicContrarian
      @PolemicContrarian 7 лет назад

      "you already answer your question bro we always use to measure time the way we perceive it"
      But it seems like years don't make any sense if we go back 4.5million years before the earth was formed to even orbit the sun to call it a year. time is relative and years are solely based on the earth orbiting the sun, so years don't make any sense before the earth.

    • @PolemicContrarian
      @PolemicContrarian 7 лет назад

      "Just because the reference of 1 year, is subjective, does not mean that it's not accurate."
      I've never said it;s not accurate, I just want to know exactly how they've measured it in years if years are entirely dependent on the earth orbiting the sun.
      "Let's say I grab a pinch of sand out of a bucket and say "there are 500 pinches of sand in that bucket" and then a larger man steps in and does the same thing, but his number is 450 pinches, there is still the same amount of sand, just our reference unit is different."
      But, as you say, there is still the same amount of sand in the bucket, but that's not relative like how time is.
      I've seen both those shows but I'm pretty sure they didn;t answer my question in the way I'm forming it.

    • @yxlxfxf
      @yxlxfxf 7 лет назад +4

      PolemicContrarian the unit of one year was invented by humans based on earth's rotation around the sun, but the amount of time it measures is the same no matter what and doesn't require an earth and a sun to exist.
      You're logic seems very weird to me. By your logic, saying "the pyramids were built 2500 years bc" is also stupid, because there was no point of reference to count those 2500 years from. What matters is that there is one now and that we can make sense of units.
