So a quick update regarding my strike: I was able to successully appeal the strike and youtube restored the video. Like i said before, we shouldn't worry too much as this is the sort of games youtube and I play. Then they striked another video! (this time one on distilling sulfuric acid) LOL, the game continues. I'm fairly certain this will be successfully appealed as well though, so no worries.
Just in case, you should start archiving any videos that you've previously deleted the file for after having uploaded. Even if you channel sticks around as a whole, we don't want to lose even a single video! Especially ones as useful as the ones about extracting products otherwise difficult to obtain for amateurs from consumer products, which I can't help but imagine are the ones youtube is most likely to have a problem with. That way you can upload them to somewhere else, BitChute maybe, if youtube doesn't let them come back.
Glad to hear youtube actually made a decent decision for once. But then quickly negate it by just striking another video.
Can you eventually adapt this to other alkali metals like lithium?
SAVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS IN SOME PLACE PLEASEE....
"Knowledge is power...Do not let them learn"... RUclips, you're number 1! 🖕😉
"Despite what the name suggests, baby oil is not actually made from babies" haha
Now I wonder what olive oil might be made from.
He has weird friends.
Shouldn’t have done that he’s just a boy. He he he
I was shocked!
Everyone knows it is made FROM babies. Not FOR babies.
I think I prefer this progress report format over just seeing the more polished process.
I agree.
But I would still prefer having the videos in pairs.
One video presenting the goal/finished product, so we get invested and it still is a good resource for amateur chemists.
And a second video showing us all the chemical bumbles and shenanigans that led to it.
so we get a better feel for the reasoning beyond just the math and the long names.
nah no need for pairs
I agree. these videos are interesting.
I fully agree. Learning from failures is important.
The progress reports are very useful and interesting. So posting one whenever he has enough to tell us would be great, even if it´s not all about the same topic.
Then, when a project is finished, a separate video that recaps everything needed in the end is useful for anyone trying to do this later on.
Awesome stuff man!
Hey man cant we make Na or K with simple chemical reactions??
@@marvinpatel294 yeah,I also want to know.
Love the progress report video format... Learning through failure is what makes science
Me too! Keep it on Nurd! :D
I hate your profile pic
It's nice to see the progress in this research!
I'm not a chemist, but I like watching your videos. I find these exploratory experiments actually more interesting than the how-to videos.
Nick Horvath same - fascinating
Beautiful. Thanks for your continued work on this.
thanks man :)
Is the dead spider at 3:46 needed for the reaction too haha
James Fulcher just as a catalyst.
Looks like there's a bug with the experiment.
@xenon255 that's not a bug, it's a feature.
This is becoming a meme among amateur RUclips chemists, I think nilered had a video of a reaction with a spider too, not too sure
i guess that spider was a prop for 《Macbeth 》 drama rehearsal... XD
Used to work in PTFE manufacturing environments. It's very common to etch PTFE and other fluoropolymers with a Sodium Naphthalene solution so that when you overmold onto the PTFE, it'll have a better chance of adhesion. :)
I don't know why this amazes me so much but your comment was very informative and interesting, which is super rare on youtube somehow. Thank you!
I always wondered how they got PTFE parts to stick to each other. That's elegantly simple.
I really really hope RUclips doesn't keep trying to terminate your channel, I really enjoy your videos, same with Cody's Lab.
RUclips is really shooting itself in the foot by trying to destroy these popular science channels. Also, @fabricated, do you watch NileRed and styropyro? I think you would enjoy them as well. There is also Keystone Science.
I like Cody but he’s a huge nerd.
Today I learned that baby oil is not actually made from babies.
Everyone knows fish oil isn't made from fish. It is a speciality oil meant to keep our fish from squeaking. Obviously baby oil cures squeaking babies. I really don't understand the confusion.
Yuup, aaand WD40 is totally a lubricant too.
Likewise for Girl Scout cookies.
@@thewolfsfang8206 WD-40 is actually made partially from fish
"Despite it´s name baby oil is not made out of babies" i love your humor nerd. you got mew laughing after what we germans call a used day. A day whwere everything that possibly can go wrong does. Like coming late to work despite already leaving an hour earlier and gettig home at the same time as usual despite being send home 2h earlier. (i´m paid by the hour. 23 bucks gone.) and keep us on your findings with the experiments. OFC we want to see the whole process not just the seemingly perfect result
NASA, "Failure is not an option."
This is only true in the vacuum of space. Here on ol' Terra, failure is progress.
Your willingness to openly try and fail is a boon to the human race.
Any progress is good progress.
Thank you for sharing your videos
I like the format that looks at failures and lists why they failed along with the thought process going forward.
You are amazing! I really enjoyed this progress report and method. Well done!
This video shows how many failures scientists have to work through before they find a successful product or process. We should encourage such videos!
Yes! More like this! It's as awesome seeing the process as the final result, in all things.
Love the progress report style vid!
absolutely like this format, congratulations
This was just utterly beautiful to watch
Really awesome to hear your rational for the process.
Loving this style of video report.Cheers.
Very cool! Congrats on your progress!
Progress reports are awesome! Keep doing them please!
This is really cool! I love this video format and I admire all the hard work you put into this project.
Thank you for sharing. I appreciate seeing your process.
Love seeing this part of the science. Congrats on your success!
This is great!! This is science in action!! Thank you for these videos! I LOVE the progress report format!
Thank you NurdRage for the hard work.... you're awesome.
Nice to know what's behind the scenes and experiments. I'm very excited about this new method! great work!
Great progress report. It's wonderful hearing the processes discussed.
I really liked the look into your processes. Keep it up
Excellent work thanks for the info and cant wait to see your final work on this thanks again
Nice work ! looking forward to seeing more on this subject.
Very much enjoy the progress videos. So long as these don't take too much time away from your other production and video work, they are very welcome.
This format is great IMO.
love these progress reports. it's more about the journey than the destination. also a lot can be learned from failures
loving this one even more than your regular ones!
Keep the progress report videos coming.
Thanks for the progress video, it was thoughtful and helpful.
This progress report is fantastic.
Thanks for mentioning the importance of the learnings in the failed experiments . With out those experiments we do not know what the path is to success and students need to understand that success in something new often requires many attempts and that there is learnings from all experiments !
Electron Proton Neutron Mouron - Do you think current students can handle the frustration of an experiment failing?
Love this format. It's very interesting to learn about your discovery process.
this is nothing but AWESOME!!! great job.
I enjoyed the progress report style video. Keep up the good work
Love the format!
This is my favorite style of science video!
Please continue with the progress reports. Very informative and it is nice to see the process. Keep up the great work.
Beautiful job with usefully cogent analysis. You are an inspiration! Thank you.
New to your channel. This format is great. Love all the dead end attempts and the thinking behind your discoveries. Very interesting.
Awesome work mate!!!
Your work is simply awesome. I wish more people see you big effort.
This format is great! And really valuable!
This video was fascinating! I love learning about what works and doesn't work, as well as the thought process that was behind your experiments. Definitely keep doing this format if you like doing it!
I defenitely prefer this sort of video since it outlines te way to the solution of a problem. I can see how actual chemists may prefer a step to step tutorial on doing these reactions, however for entertainment this video format seems alot better to me. Thank you alot for making all of these videos! It does not matter what format you use it is always quite interesting to me!
i do enjoy this video format. it's nice to see the process behind your how-to videos.
Fantastic work.
Very good format. More is learned from failure than success. Thank you for sharing!
This video format is great! SO interesting.
love the progress videos. it also holds a lot of background videos which is important for learning more about the stuff that happens
Greetings I've been watching for years, thank you. The new format is much better please continue with it
Love the approach of sharing the failures! Much more valuable than just sharing what worked.
I absolutely love the "progress report" style! Encouraging the "publishing" of negative results and the discovery process is super important and awesome!
I like this format. Watching the progress report them the video of what works next feels like im seeing the whole picture.
Yes great content here I approve your direction on this style! Great journey and great commentary keep it up!
YES, I absolutely like this format! Our interest here is in exploring the science!
Brilliant video. Keep experimenting
I loved this format! So much information, good or bad, was excellent to me!
I like this format! This is what being a chemist is really like. Also, it’s really satisfying when you figure it out after all these trials.
I really like this format !
I'm learning a lot, from your videos, keep it up!
The view into your investigative process is incredibly valuable. I've learned at least as much from your failures as your successes, if not more. This format is awesome. Please continue.
Love this progress report! Shows everyone that not every attempt is perfect and curiosity is a key to great science. Thank you.
I love this instead of a how to, you actually give notes and failures! Keep it up
I really enjoyed this video. Showing that you have had failures and set backs as well as showing that there was progress being made, even from the failures, is super inspiring!
Keep the progress reports coming! Knowing what doesn't work and why is just as important as what did work.
Super awesome!!!! I look forward to the how to!
This kind of research-type video is highly educational! Great job!
Excellent as usual
Thank you for this video... gives a real sense of scientific method including failures as well as successes. As ever, nicely presented.
LOVE THE FORMAT. NR, you making more videos is good. I like your approach to the subject, and am not here just for the final product of it. It is enthusing seeing the whole process take place with additional thought. Keep it up and i'll keep coming back to learn something new.
The format of this video is very good. Its very educational to see the overall process of your work and not only the streamlined conclusion. A true gem! Thank you.
this format of a video is very informative , i like it
I really like this format.
yup love this format of videos.
Awesome explanation!
We all love the progress format! Makes us feel like part of the process rather than just passive recipients.
Great job Dr!
love the progress report there great and educative plus it keep me wanting to know what happen next
Really like this format.
Cool, it is enlightening to see the process instead of just the end result.
I love this video and this format
Good job nurdrage!!!!
I really liked this video. Keep on truckin'!
The progress report format is awesome! We know you’re just human, and have shown some “bloopers” before, but seeing just a “here’s where I am, and what it took to get here” with relatively unfiltered content is very refreshing.
It also provides a good stop gap to make sure your channel is “active” in the algorithms and keeps you in the forefront of all of our minds.
Thanks for all the great content you produce!
Excellent video, I love the content, I think for this series of videos (and possibly others) the process is almost more important than the outcome
I love to see the progress. It really show how to apply the scientific method in progress and not just a fancy end result.
Nurdrage, I wanted to personally thank you for being such an inspiration for me. Finding your videos online has invigorated a passion inside of my that I didn't know how to direct, until now. Your experiments and contributions to the scientific community are invaluable and have inspired me to pursue a high level chemistry education. Keep up the great work! If you're ever interested in providing apprenticeship in the future, I'd love to study under your guidance. Hope this message reached you well and I look forward to further updates and videos from you.
These types of videos are far more valuable than the typical how-to videos for people trying to learn. Please keep them coming.
