The brains are quantum x quantum mechanics, Thoughts are the inception of Creation. The Left supports the Right, the Right supports the Left in 010 UNITY = Infinity Squared.
And THIS, of course ladies and gentlemen.... is why we don't partake in booger sugar before explaining chemistry! Great job guy! Great job indeed! Now, go rest! 😂
There must be some electrical/energy interference from sensor when it’s plugged in and operating?? Magnetic interference maybe - just enough to make those tiny tiny atoms react differently
There is a climate problem. The approaching ice age. The accelerating rate of cooling over the last few thousand years suggests that an ice age is approaching just like has happened every hundred thousand years for the last million years. The tempersture graphs have been altered to change the long term cooling trend to a warming trend for infantile political purposes.. The warming since 1980 is accounted for by elevated seismic activity just like in the mid 1900's.
After 20 years and a degree, I have the opportunity to be treated like a human being for the first time in my life by the Germans because Dr Curran visited Warwick, wow thanks! No, I am definitely not a perfectionist, otherwise I would have been successful in Germany and Brits be like they are violating human rights, let me make money off it. I don't have a phd in psychology or a phd at all but 2 things I have learned about German culture thanks to this interaction: German society doesn't have any concept of fundamental human rights, every right hast to be purchased and that's why they are rich. Also, when you abuse a person consistently over a long period of time, they lose all credibility despite any education, hard work or skills, this is basically my life. I think this is a far more interesting area of psychology that is also very relevant to German society but obviously a psychologist from LSE would like to focus on issues that are not even classified as a psychiatric conditions
I bet as he read his notes and could see the bottle of water next to him, he didn’t actually see the bottle 99% of the time. Completely reverse of his point on blind seeing. And I bet you never saw the bottle until you read this comment.
I cant remember who said it originally, but once I heard it, it became my goto way of explaining how science usually works: Scientific discoveries are rarely made with a cry of "Eureka!" But most often with a mutter of "Hmm, that's interesting..." The discovery of Uranus being one such example, someone looked at the orbit of Saturn, realised there was an anomaly and said "That’s interesting..." and that lead to the discovery of a new planet.
Ironically, his description is exactly what the Bible says. Man was formed from chemicals found in the earth, and God added life. But since scientists don’t believe in God, they say, SOMETHING added life, we just don’t know what that something is.
TIMEISM = G.U.T. = Information System in T.E.N.(THE ETERNAl NOW) 010 dimensions. There IS no Time other than TIMING. Time is dead, 01 Timing runneth over.
In relation to the theory of general relativity, why is the grid two dimensional? Why would the fabric of spacetime bend / curve only in one direction if space is supposed to be 4 dimensional?
Makes about as much sense as H2 for transport. $6B in private capital investment? Pffffft...Tesla is planning on spending $10B alone in 2024, just on AI compute.
Cassini / Huygens was launched on top of a Titan IV B / Centaur rocket and not from the Space Shuttle. Hubble was kind of launched from the Space Shuttle.
If we can master fusion like we did combustion, then imagine starting your car with a fusion powered engine. It would probably sound like a cyber startup due to the fact there’s no macro explosions happening in the engine. The fuel requirements would be dependable entirely on the rich people. But for the most part we know that fusion would last a long time. Imagine having to fill your car up once a month rather than every week or 3 days. Mechanics would probably get paid hella because fixing a fusion engine in theory would be pricey af but manageable for those with low income. It really just depends on how the rich guide our civilization. Are they just tryna get richer for the betterment of themselves via war funds, or are they focused on revolutionary enhancements to daily living? That’s really what’s holding us back is our choices as a whole. I think leaders who are businessmen first, would make the necessary decisions for economic purposes. People who share opinions from both factions
So light travel faster than the speed of light when travelling to singularity umm, that does not make sense to me. Surely there is something we are missing something so big that discovering it would change our understanding of the whole universe universe.
I believe Francium will be more reactive than Caesium as Radium is more reactive than Barium. May be from Period 8 onwards, relativistic effects comes into picture. Theoretically FrOH is more basic than CsOH.
Mr Clarke amazing video😂 you literally have readjusted my own realities for me. I have some autistic folk in my family and I've known some autistic people when I was much younger you have just given me a new super duper if I can use a scientific term! insight into what makes them tick and possibly what makes me tick thank you sir thank you thank you🎉 You also have a very cool accent!!
Unfortunatly, they really assume feritell of the bigbang first few seconds, exists. They are all digest the sam nonsense. Non of the come up with really coherent explanation. Matter ir anything matter, gas nothing to do with big-nonsense.
Firstly, humans and scyunce can understand things from a casual reality - Newtonian physics, where things bump into thing in a linear progression of events. Kinda like a billiards ball model. Where down in the quantum world is yet unknown to us. So the difficulty with this experiment is just another case in point. The experiment got nun to do with consciousness influencing the experiment or anyodat. It's the observer effect at play. To observe something is to change it. If you are trying to probe into the tiny world of the quantum, you cannot use Newtonian grade observer or equipment. For example, if the quantum world is somehow soft and subtle as made up of ping pong balls, and given that out measuring instruments can fire(the smallest) only basketballs into a ping pong ball world and expect to 'observe' what's up in the ping pong ball world, that's just stupid. Because you will only observe smashed ping pong balls as if they were smashed by basketballs. See, stupid The act of measuring means interaction with the subject. Measuring and observation not only infects, it changes the entire experiment. This experiment also show the need for us to ditch the Newtonian thinking. It served us well up to this day. But now we are pushed to face the quantum stuff. Not sure why it's even named quantum world because quantum means measurable
Elementary school ! By the way I am tired of falling apples ! In my garden much more plums fall down than apples. AND strangely all the gravity guided wasps prefer the plums !
