Objectivity Oh Patreon! Just shout it out on the video, love to get behind it.

@xcq1 5 лет назад

I don't want to be nit-picky, but if people *double* click the notification bell that's not really changing much. That said, I fully support the patreon decision because this channel is awesome.

4:29 "The rest of this chapter was all invented and has no other being, than in the malicious head of Mr Hill, who takes such pleasure in Scandal, that even those who have been dead 40 or 50 Years are not safe from his wicked aspersions." I love it.

The original Parker square

@LeoStaley 3 года назад

This is Matt Parker, known for inventing the mathematically irrelevant Parker Square.

Nobody today could write like those margin notes. Not just the style, but how perfectly all of the words are put in the little margins in such handwriting. It's so stylized yet it looks as if they had a ruler lining every word.

@gumunduringigumundsson9344 5 лет назад

Ahh what a good laugh there in the end. I lolled heartly. Thank you guys! You rock!

@Dankey_King 5 лет назад

This is my margin writing in the youtube comment section: The works of Mr. Matt Parker truly befit the grandeur of the library of the Royal Society!

@lucidmoses 5 лет назад

Still think Keith is like the rock star of librarians.

@CatzHoek 5 лет назад

I'm blown away how beautiful the handwriting is. I'm almost 40 and my everyday handwritting looks like a 2nd grader wrote it. Or probably worse, they are judged on it.

@HabeKeinMitleid 5 лет назад

I agree. However, they were not at all good at typing on a computer keyboard like most of us are. ;) Different times, different needs.

@macronencer 5 лет назад

People no longer seem to know how to hold a pen. When I see the way they do it, I don't wonder that their handwriting is awful. I'm no better, by the way - although I know how to hold a pen, I'm always in a hurry when I write by hand so mine is awful anyway :) But my dad knew how to write beautifully when we were kids, and made us practise. It's like chopsticks: there's a sweet spot of maximum control, and when you hit it you kind of say "oh, NOW I understand!" (By the way, all left-handers are exempt from my critique. I can't imagine how annoying it must be to essentially be forced to write backwards...)

@CatzHoek 5 лет назад

@@macronencer I haven't used an actual pen since 10th grade or so, only ballpens and that's a huge difference. Should grab myself a pen and see how it looks if i actually try to write with a nice wide blade on an ink pen for the next postcard or whatever i write.

@macronencer 5 лет назад

@@CatzHoek Oh yes! You should do that. I have a fountain pen that I use sometimes when I'm not in a hurry, and it's a pure delight :)

@SuperChiantos 5 лет назад

I love videos with Matt!

@krisweinschenker598 Год назад

That is pretty cool....that Humble Pie is the Royal Society.

Signed on as a Patreon subscriber, finally. Love your work.

@LeoStaley 3 года назад

I watch every Matt Parker video. I've subscribed to this channel for 7 years. I don't know why this is the first time I ime I've seen this video in my feed.

@rekagaal 5 лет назад

7:30 Well that is just way too cute and my heart is entirely melted.

@Locutus 3 года назад

Brady, such a joker! Love it how he says he wants to annotate Matt's book.

@N.I.R.A.T.I.A.S. 5 лет назад

I love that you've got somewhere as steeped in history and seriousness and the gravity of human invention as the Royal Society and here are these two Aussie larrikins mucking about.

@jurjenbos228 5 лет назад

6:35 "shut up Brady" LOL

@fustigate314159 5 лет назад

I was REALLY expecting them to show the "Bradley" typo at the end of the book.

@VincentGroenewold 5 лет назад

So love the attitude of Matt. :)

@otakuribo 5 лет назад

2:00 "The distinctive features of the most primitive human brain we have at present" I think we may have made some progress in that field since then

@jjbudinski8486 4 года назад

The painting in this video is amazing, I'm curious if the members all posed for hours or if the artist was incredibly skilled- Degas was known to remember light and details and render them later on, as was Mort Drucker :P Any details about t?

@CybranM 5 лет назад

I love the banter

@CoolAsFreya 2 года назад

I'd like to think of some future person searching the archives finding Matt's book, signed by the author, and can get a chuckle out of his work

@1224chrisng 5 лет назад

someone say something about Margins and Marvelous Proofs lol

@boredgrass Год назад

The origin of peer review (at least in Britain) That's quite something!

@DeoMachina 5 лет назад

The joke at the end was worth the wait, hahahaa

@justinlarsen2281 2 года назад

When my Anthro college professor nonchalantly mentioned that Lucy was gathered from multiple dig sites and the pelvis required assistance from a bone saw to fit bipedal it instantly reminded me of Piltdown man. It also was just too much hoax for me to continue taking this field seriously. It's literally built in the back of hoaxes

@robfenwitch7403 5 лет назад

Alas, I have the Audible version of Matt Parker's book and it has no margins ...

@1224chrisng 5 лет назад

Alas, I too don't have the marvelous proof that the Audible version of the book is a Parker Copy

@Kae6502 5 лет назад

You'll have to comment in the silences between chapters then.

@alexandert5498 5 лет назад

Alas, I do not have the Audible version of Matt Parker's book because I live in the US

@neddyladdy 5 лет назад

If there was no margin no-one would bother selling it.

@Movie.Hammer 5 лет назад

Bet you I can find a margin.

Oscar Wilde is reputed to have said "I would not want to join a club that would have me as a member!" Dr John Hill would sympathise, I fancy...

4:40 This is basically is just RU-vidrs responding to each other's videos in the 18th century.

Yes, only eloquently and spelled correctly.

@greenbanana311 5 лет назад

I love Keith's jacket!

@robnorris4770 5 лет назад

And with this, Matt’s book becomes the most requested book in the RS archives.

@FlyingSavannahs 3 года назад

The problem is is that it's been misfiled and has never been found. Oh well, mistakes happen.

@nab-rk4ob 5 лет назад

I so want to hear "Humble Pi" but I have a $50+ monthly subscription of audiobooks that come my way through SimplyAudiobooks. I keep waiting for his book to come on their list.

@notavailable8130 5 лет назад

You need a contest where the prize is a day long tour with Keith... actually you could make alot of money selling tickets...

@jeremybuchanan4759 5 лет назад

Deliberately published on Tau Day? (Happy Tau Day btw!)

"Books: like RU-vid comments in slow motion." - Matt Parker

@RafidW9 5 лет назад

I just noticed this, but Matt's face is awfully similar to Jazza from Draw with Jazza.

@Daniel_Rodrigues_89 5 лет назад

The heck, just came from Jazza's video where he 3D printed his own face, this is extra-creepy. And you're totally right.

@mhyzon1 5 лет назад

Charge your phone, Brady! You’ll never get through 9 hours on 30%.

@iteerrex8166 5 лет назад

I had no idea.. "Nullius In Verba" is the motto of Royal Society. Very cool, specially in today's world with so much junk floating around.

@dennisdavis6943 5 лет назад

I just searched Audible for Humble Pi and it's not showing up. Is it only available in the UK or something?

@aL3891_ 5 лет назад

i get the gloves, but when only brady seems to wear them, it does kind of imply that he somehow have greasier hands then the other guys :)

@rtpoe 5 лет назад

So what ever happened to the Piltdown bones, anyway?

@Movie.Hammer 5 лет назад

It's in a US museum

@Chris-bm5qd 5 лет назад

Finally, a proper introduction of Keith.

@lucidmoses 5 лет назад

Didn't see that one coming. Too funny, Hatchet job indeed.

How the experts were fooled. Such a shame that Woodward moved to Piltdown and spent his career investigating Piltdown and found nada.

@mojosbigsticks 5 лет назад

Pay someone to go through your back catalogue looking for mistakes OR piss someone off so much, they do it for free!

@odizzido 5 лет назад

Audible's DRM gets in the way too much for me to use it :\

@dennisdavis6943 5 лет назад

DRM?

@macronencer 5 лет назад

1:13 The digits are in standard typeface but the rest of the date is italic. Is that a common thing? I've only just noticed it. Typography geeks, please enlighten me!
