- why is there something instead of nothing
- why is there something rather than nothing
This video spans the realms of physics and philosophy and was inspired by “Levels of Nothing” by Robert Lawrence Kuhn, in the book “The Mystery of Existence: Why is there Anything At All” by John Leslie and Robert Lawrence Kuhn.

A YouTuber builds a working ionic thruster. Why? I have two answers. One, why not? and Secondly, for Beltalowda! In my attempt to answer that – I built a next-gen ionic thruster, and only shocked myself about a dozen times in the process. Thank you to Steven Barret at MIT for providing his airplane footage, […]

How do Lithium-ion Batteries Work?
Lithium-ion batteries power our modern life, but how many of us know how they actually work? Watch this video to find out and read why he “reversed” the anode and cathode. Question: “I learned that the Anode is + and the Cathode is -. Why do you say the reverse?” Answer: Well, in electronic devices, […]

This Computer Chip is alive 🤯
There is a startup in Australia who are actually growing live human neurons and then integrating it into traditional computer chips. Mind-blowing — definitely. Ethical concerns — most definitely.

Here’s another stellar video from Sabine Hossenfelder. Today I tell you what happened when I wrote an opinion piece for the Guardian about quantum computing, had to explain what a qubit is, and decided against using the phrase that it “can be in two states at the same time”. What happened next and what did […]

The Man Who Revolutionized Computer Science With Math
Leslie Lamport revolutionized how computers talk to each other. The Turing Award-winning computer scientist pioneered the field of distributed systems, where multiple components on different networks coordinate to achieve a common objective. (Internet searches, cloud computing and artificial intelligence all involve orchestrating legions of powerful computing machines to work together.) In the early 1980s, Lamport […]
