...why should death be solved ASAP?

Say I say I'm an expert in chemistry and education - then I would be available to moderate chem Ed videos.
I'm not convinced this isn't an attempt by YT to claim they tried and it had unintended consequences they can't avoid.
Be wary of applying it too broadly, I think.
could you offer to compile/package SOUL code into a VST as a service?
Watching someone disorder a solved cube is not particularly interesting or satisfying. I'm sure it does serve the text, but boy it irks me.
Also, limitations can breed efficiency - by being constrained to a 2D projection, the interactions are simplified and streamlined
VR provides the same goals and expects utility (fun, efficiency) from the process.
Its fun and interesting, but I haven't seen anything groundbreaking.
Frankly, I think VR and FB are a good match for another reason - they both provide an overwhelming, dissociating experience
This can be a boon, but like sugar and opiates I worry that they're more social or sensory information than we can take in chronically - unfortunately, huge amounts of money and thought and technology is aimed at maximizing our intake to pad coffers.
I'm not sad AR/VR adoption is lacklustre
Is it just a demonstration of skill?
"Who cares?" God revealed to Levi, "It happens to all of us."
While it is certainly pretty likely, it isn't necessarily known that this rock is part of methane generation.
If it's coming from the ice directly, the ice sheet 'location' doesn't explain whether the methane was from a biotic or abiotic source.
It probably eliminates the already-small likelihood that it is coming from still-extant microorganisms, but it doesn't eliminate their possible involvement in clathrate formation.
Do they not get to have their own territory, or do they have less right to sovereignty than the US or Argentina?
Is there anything even tangentially related to your dayjob that you could mine for ideas? Or maybe take some time to come up with some research direction?
A places like Oak Ridge could have something interesting available.
Each species' death is millions of years of labwork trashed
Also, low-frequency waves naturally are lower energy. Why not bury the output and increase the frequency?
It would have the added benefit of supposedly keeping away ground-dwelling pests; supposedly.
You experience the properties of particles a little more directly...mostly in solution.
It's easy to see why pilot wave is appealing...maybe, secretly, things are actually not crazy or incomprehensible at small scales and the universe makes sense!
But even ignoring QM and looking out at the 13 billion light years of space above should make one ponder what right we had to get even this far
After tiring of convoluted web 3.0 frameworks and Babel-esque dependency structures, programmers have finally fashioned a black box they cannot understand which relieves the anxiety of knowing they should.
There is also a divorcing of pilot wave from these particular visualizations - the emergent properties of fluids will always make them bad approximations. But the maths don't work out either, and it ends up getting too convoluted compared to the 'simpler' and weirder version.
However, I think it's an interesting alternative that demonstrates why, at some level, you just kind of have to throw your hands up and say "well I guess that's just how reality works, dammit."
There are less-crazy visions about how very small things work, but they don't do the job.
It explains some things pretty intuitively (double slit experiment), but from what I can tell it becomes too convoluted for other things.
Mass can be related to energy with E=mc^2, and you can get some idea of its relation to wavelength and wave collisions.
I think a smallest wavelength is unlikely, because it would put an upper bound on energy. The only side-effect of increasing the energy density (ie a lot of energy in a small space, like a very low-wavelength photon) is the formation of a black hole. I think the question of whether photons (massless) can form them is one of those quantum-gravity issues that are awaiting a theory.
It's not a "pop-sci" podcast - they take a couple of interesting modern physics papers and discuss them; no more, no less. A lot of it is way over my head as a chemist, but that's part of what makes me love it. The topics are always understandable, even if it takes self-study to get the nuances.
One guy is a physicist and the other is a sculptor who, I assume, taught himself physics.
Just a thing that would likely appeal to one who cares about particle physics and is not well satisfied by the preponderance of 'physics' podcasts that endlessly re-explain what entropy is or what wave/particle duality means.
I wish more science podcasts dealt directly with modern research, and this one is a great example...even if they're skeptical about Copenhagen and prefer pilot-wave "realism".
Choosing a very popular free platform has benefits (blender.org)
Rounding wind speeds down at the force of a butterfly flap caused significant deviations for known weather patterns.
Having people half-ass assumptions because they read about a supply/demand curve once and can scrap DJIA data in order to gamble their 15k savings is unlikely to be widespread, but definitely something to consider if that is your argument.
However, it would still least breed familiarity. I take your point that this will probably not help things and...well, I guess I've run out of steam in my own comment.
Ignorance is bad, and staying in ivory towers will end badly. The obvious route for education will likely only foster arrogance and cynicism. What's the third way? Make everyone read Kant and write "Marx was a philosopher, not an economist" 100 times?
Anyway, it's just any sort of amine reacting with chlorine that produces the chloramines that irritate your eyes. Even if nobody urinated in the pool, the sweat people produce would still be able to cause it. Obviously it wouldn't deplete chlorine as quickly, but it isn't that irritation only comes from urine alone.
Further, I'm more worried by this: > "We have a new parasitic germ that has emerged that's immune to chlorine," says Beach. "We've got to keep it out of the pool in the first place. We need additional barriers." - Dr. M Beach, Associate Director at Healthy Water, CDC

Plenty of starry-eyed people enter academia. There isn't quite the same unionization gateway into academic jobs, but mostly just markers of effective work - papers, grants, etc
If we allow all cartoon porn because nobody has been victimized, then the above scenario is more simple - does the image originate from or use as its input an image requiring the suffering/exploitation of a non-consenting party?
This would cover fancy image-hiding methods because you would presumably run a script on some extant photo. You also wouldn't be able to paint your own copy of an abuse photo and claim artistry.
You could also say "all images of abuse, real or imagined", but Australia has shown that legislating thought-only is unproductive. It also wouldn't give much extra social benefit over a less restrictive real-only law.
