  1. Guys, seriously... have some compassion. I don't think the flat earthers have the cognitive faculty to realize they are wrong or that they just don't know. I think there may be somethin biologically atypical about thier brains... Can you MAKE yourself believe something? Do we control our beliefs that well?

  2. No, I think Derek just made a video with cryptic lesson to make sure everyone thinks he's so damn smart. Mostly, I think he is the reason why most people dislike science.

  3. @Theorem common cold is a rhinovirus.

  4. Hudson Freeze... Sounds Canadian. Ironic that he works with extremophiles in boiling water.

  5. Omg dude... Your so much smarter than all of us. I am in awe of your prodigious intelligence. You're so smart, you're up there with Thunderf00t. Wow just so impressed that YOUR UNITS WERE EFFING WRONG!

  6. Cody's lab already did thermite, like over 9000 times...

  7. If it weren't Haber, it would have been someone else. Besides, Cavedish figured out how to make nitric acid with electrical sparks, and berkland and eyed perfected this only a year before.

  8. Pretty sure Derek is an expert in egocentric bias

  9. Derek the Dick now has to title his videos with the presumption that you're dumb and he needs to educate you because he is so much smarter than you.

  10. It was the holy Grail of optoelectronics.

  11. Derek, you should know that you're one of the reasons why most people don't like science.

  12. Awe... Covid killed Conway!? Also... Conway's game of life can simulate Conway's game of life...

  13. Another episode of some California guy convinced us he's super intelligent.

  15. 14:17 no, the state of the rubic's cube being in the "solved" state is just as likely as any other specific state that humans decided as spceial..

  16. Factually inaccurate. The Montreal protocol was desirable because the patent on freon was expiring. The hole in the ozone layer got much bigger since humans stopped using freon.

  17. I hate this expression of "reinventing the wheel". This isn't even remotely accurate.

  18. No, entropy isn't misunderstood.

  19. Its prime.

  20. Kiss ass. He doesn't give extra credit. He's way more likely to ask you a question you don't know the answer to, then shame you with a complex answer that is intended to make you look stupid and him look smart.

  21. Can't we figure out how much gravity is there by seeing how much space warp from grav lensing?

  22. That's a shitty poker face.

  23. Untill everything is fluff

  24. 300g would kill any living thing? Tardigrade: Hold my beer.

  25. @Theorem common cold == rhinovirus. Uncommon cold == coronavirus or CCP virus or the coof

  26. Incorrect use of the word "literally".

  27. ​ @ravishah2255  I think Derek watches all these other videos and picks the topics that do well. Derek is kind of a duck

  28. Democracy is a system of government where tuling power is distributed among the people. Voting is NOT democracy anymore than pencils are mathematics. Voting is a tool to support democracy, just as pencils are a tool to support mathematics.

  29. I am skeptical of bias in the image model. Seems unlikely we could see a donut on the moon. Angular resolution would require aligning the global telescope down to nanometers.... And temperature differences are huge...

  30. What if I have two clocks synchronized and assume the Lorenz transforms are correct!

  31. Or... You could just read the damn book.

  32. I took a thermodynamics course and got an A, and I think the earth gets radiant energy from the sun.

  33. Right.... Electing rulers is not democracy. It's just another way to determine the ruling class.

  34. Welcome to another episode of Derek is smarter than you.

  35. Hmm... The trillion dollar equation is a second order partial differential equation.

  36. Duh.

  37. This entire epidode is just Dereck reminding you how smart he is, despite putting on about 20 pounds since covid.

  38. It was a damn setup.

  39. No the internet guy was a strawman designed so Derek can win the debate dishonestly. For example, upper leveled of the atmosphere have increased CO2 just like the surface layers. The surface layers have H2O vapor but it freezes it condenses into clouds at higher elevations. The models predict warming at elevation, but none is observed. It largely suggests that CO2 is NOT the cause of whatever surface warming trend.

  40. How do you get a master's in any engineering field and not understand freshman thermodynamics? It's super basic stuff.

  41. Its the Derek needs to be dmarter than everyone else rule.

  42. Welcome to another episode of "Derek must be right"

  43. No, this is NOT science. This is theoretical physics. Theoretical physics is sometimes scientific, sometimes complete malarky. You need a lot of experimental evidence to support a theory to make it science.

  44. Why do we treat particles as discreet things with an exact location? That par makes no sense

  45. Though.... We have an electoral college.

  46. The ENTIRE reason why I didn't pick 1/c seconds is because your units were foobared.

  47.  @Lena-cz6re  I called for compassion and you answer with bile, piss and vinegar. You have a hard heart. the idea that I am wrong sometimes is apparent. I am human and make mistakes. I avoid making mistakes. People who believe flat earth theory are making mistakes that can be demonstrated with empirical evidence, yet they still believe. I don't think they have a choice to drop the old idea and pick up a new one.

  48. Derek has to be smarter than everyone.

  49. It's the "Derek is smarter than you" show. Smug bastards
