First Detection of Gravitational Waves With Pulsars (Probably)

Today we talk about quantum computers that are really good at guessing, room temperature superconductors, again, how we changed the tilt of Earth’s axis without noticing, the environmental impact of the metaverse, a computer chip that mimics the human eye, whether smart drugs actually make you smart, how carbon dioxide emissions look like, flying taxis, an announcement of an announcement, and of course, the telephone will ring.

NEW: We're now also on Substack!

Is the microchip shortage over yet?

The world runs on microchips, but ever since the COVID pandemic they've been in short supply. What happened? Has the situation improved now? And what are nations doing to prevent it from happening again? A fascinating piece of free market economy and its troubles that we'll look at in this video.

Plants use quantum mechanics

Today we’ll talk about plants that use quantum mechanics, the first data from a new galaxy survey, quantum utility, online hate groups, photonic computing, the most sensitive power measurement ever, how to map a tunnel with muons, bad climate news that I don’t want to talk about, and you don’t want to hear, but that we need to talk about anyway. And of course, the telephone will ring.

NEW: We're now also on Substack!

The second law of thermodynamics has a major flaw.

Life needs order, but entropy increase will inevitably destroy order and eventually make life in the universe impossible. Or will it? In this video I'll explain why I don't believe this argument.

Evidence against dark matter that might also be evidence for dark matter.

Today we’ll talk about evidence against dark matter that might also be evidence for dark matter, atoms that breathe, noise cancellation with plasma, wireless power transmission in space, just and safe limits for ecosystems, an update from NASA’s mission to the Asteroid Psyche, swarms of microbots, artificial molecules, moon time, and of course, the telephone will ring.

Can we build better humans? Transhumanism and Biohacking

Mechanical enhancements and implants are becoming more and more popular amongst certain groups of transhumanists and grinders? Are we coming closer to an age of cyborgs? Is genetic screening and editing ethical? Has biohacking lost all meaning? What are nootropics? That's what we'll talk about today.

A news search for dark matter and a quantum navigation system

Today, we talk about a new search for dark matter, how to navigate with quantum effects, why amino acids are left-handed, medical tests in a cave, the Roman space telescope, a new record for optical fibres, a water plume on Saturn’s moon, forever chemicals, and of course, the telephone will ring.

Has Physics Ruled out Free Will?

Do humans have free will or to the the laws of physics imply that such a concept is not much more than a fairy tale? Do we make decisions? Did the big bang start a chain reaction of cause and effects leading to the creation of this video? That's what we'll talk about today.
