  1. Thanks for the combined Primers, Veritasium. Liked and shared.

  2. So, then, why all the hubbub over the Higgs and the universal Gravity Field?

  3. A fundamental flaw in your model: one rabbit equals zero new rabbits. One must begin all such hyperbole with a mating pair or assign your population of one automatic, parthenogenetic, litters. William of Ockham might not have formulated the famous "Occam's razor" filter, but you should include it in your ramblings. This example opens the door on how flawed statistical modeling is as a process used to determine outcomes in the real world. You simply can't build an accurate model which includes all the salient variables. Otherwise, carry on.

  4. Not only methane. N2O, which is even more combustible. Both are toxic in small concentration, but N20 at least gives you a show before you go. Stuff is a serious sedative, anesthetic, and trip drug. It's also not good for you to use recreationally. Kids-don't imitate stupid or unwise adults. Look for the wise* ones and imitate those, instead. It avoids trouble and allows more time for the important things in life**. * I am not one. ** Posting to You Tube, making your own methane by eating chili dogs for breakfast (I'm looking at you, Sonic!), going for long walks on the beach at night . . . creepy.

  6. Fascinating.

  7. This is all about swamping indies with the absolute need for a team of specialists to stay current with Machine Marketing Tactics. Corporate greed must be given free reign. Otherwise . . . some very rich old folks would cry. And we'd all rather cry than make them cry--right? Because they're rilly, rilly, special and all?

  9. Another reason to hate cities.

  10. You've been blackballed.

  11. It's called a "Flood Plain" for a reason that escapes developers who won't live on site.

  12. My mum's show ran 25 years on WQED/WQEX and, when the fifty year anniversary came up, she was never even mentioned. I talked with David Newall (Mr McFeely), who worked in the WQED studios in those days and he checked the vaults. Her show was kinetoscoped and they saved none of them. Pop culture loses a lot of stuff. Sad, too. She and Julia Child were the first infomercials, back when folks taught, rather than today's crude marketing segments. She wrote her whole show, invited the guests, made the props, and sold a million self-written books based on the show at a dollar each. Try to find one now. ;-) 25 years, never syndicated. Few others can claim that. My mum was a ground breaker.

  13. What happens if THREE cars in a bunch-up choose the motorcycle? Is that digital conspiracy?

  14. You can relax. I've solved the subjectivity discrepancy problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pZFwjTvGp8 And you are most certainly welcome.

  16. There are interactions not mediated by Photons. The formation of neutron stars includes a nearly instantaneous transmission of state.

  17. Boundary layer mechanics. Fascinating . . .

  18. In balance, paper straws are biodegradable and the industry is not quite as impactful, environmentally speaking, as the plastics industry, which gets its resins from the oil companies. <Slogan Man> "Straw-less is best! Straw-less is best!"
