Michael Stevens (V-Sauce) and Prof. Fry talk about what fire is and how it might have shaped evolution.
Definitely a hard fascination video if you listen properly.

On the bright side, an elderly neighbour who just parks his bins in the middle of the garden and waves his hands around wouldn't be so bad, all things considered.

What's the point in allowing you to dial in a 9000m sea level rise when the sea level rise if all ice on earth melted would be something under 100m?
The 2100 worst-case scenario makes very little difference to the UK, but putting in +100m covers over half the UK so it would be a lot more interesting to have the slider select a date and give the worst-case for that date.

Superfast Matt is a much better channel - He actually drives his homemade car on the salt flats. He's up to about 300 mph now.

Related to that, I can also recommend The Sendy Club. Robin doesn't post very often, but that's usually because he's actually getting shit done to a deadline.
They've custom built a car to go for the outright record at Pikes Peak and came within a few seconds of it this year on what was very much just a shakedown run.

But that's a silly, invertedly snobbish take, which I realise. LC is kinda the GOAT.
It was actually someone on here who posted a Knower link, a couple of years ago, and now I listen to them at least once a month! Just 'Life' though, as it compresses their chops into more pop-ish structures and I appreciate working within limitations. The rest of their material can get a little too jazz, a little too 'clever'..

After such a great performance, hearing the conductor end it with a terse "Disgraceful" is the perfect finish IMO.
Out of curiosity, do you find tracks like "It's all nothing until it's everything", "Do hot girls like chords" and "I'm the president" too jazzy?
(, Sat 26 Sep 2026, 14:22, Reply)
There are exceptions of course, like the tracks you mentioned. I think it comes down to an impression of tightness. 'Life' was pretty tight, whereas there's a looseness to the rest of their catalogue which doesn't hit in quite the same way, for me.

Saw a version of them playing this song in practice with just the guitars, bass, drums & vocals - so I thought it would be interesting to hear what the studio version would sound like with that treatment.

But bugger me, their stuff since then has been samey as fuck. Not bad by any means, but if you've heard MHTRTC, you've basically heard their entire back catalogue.
Still nowhere near the level that the champions of monotony, Public Service Broadcasting have reached, mind.

“Move fast and break things” is fine when it’s your stuff you’re breaking. The minute you start breaking other people’s things there needs to be accountability.

Where do we stop with this? Is Microsoft responsible if someone uses Excel to make a spreadsheet for keeping track of their drug money? Hold car manufacturers if someone uses a car in a robbery getaway? Hold hammer manufacturers responsible when someone goes on a hammer killing rampage? The hackers used the internet too, hold the entire internet infrastructure responsible as well?
Or, more rationally, just hold the person who commits the crime responsible for their actions no matter who made the tools they used?
(, Thu 24 Sep 2026, 11:32, Reply)
If Microsoft are programming Excel to be able to hack, then set up a test where they tell it to go and hack and don't put sufficient controls in place to stop it hacking things it shouldn't, then yes.
Also, what's happened to that data? Has it been ingested and used to train more models? If so that's outright theft.

I asked "Is Microsoft responsible if someone uses Excel to make a spreadsheet for keeping track of their drug money?"
and you also ignored that the internet as a whole is fundamental to hacking, it is designed to allow computers to access other computers. Without it, nobody could remotely hack.
You know very well that it is the criminals who are and should be liable, as shown by your wilfully ignoring the questions that highlight that.

You have to be very specific about the commands you give it, how you get it to ignore safety locks, and many other things.
Very similar to turning the safety off on a gun, pointing it and pulling the trigger. But we all agree it is the person who does that who is responsible for whatever happens afterwards.
