In today’s Lightning Round video, I cover the observer effect – and how everybody (including me) gets it wrong. Also, tech bros, black holes, Crispr and I hate being pale. It’ll all make sense when you watch, trust me.

cheers that was a very personal thing you shared I respect that. Splotchy Bois unite !
BS explanation. It is what it is and yea… Spirituality like Jesus is wo wo to the unbelievers. 😂
12:12 💊 It’s not a substance? Placebo? Are we in the Matrix?
Maybe just turn on a black box —if it doesn’t kill Schrödinger the cat🤷🏻♂️
7:01 🎼 It's all mixed up🎵🎶
Thanks for this – it frustrates me when quantum mechanics gets translated into layman language, but then it seems to be pointing at something incredibly mystical. My understanding is – people have to stop thinking about particles as something you can see with your eyes, or a camera – it's not a softball, it needs specialized detectors, and those detectors in order to detect those things, also "hit" the object, so it's not that strange that these particles are affected by that physical detection process. Observer is just the wrong word.
I reckon it would be irresponsible to have/develop further the "antibiotic" that reverses ageing. with that said I would kind agree to be healthy until my time comes but not live forever.
who would have access to it such an antibiotic ? not me not you, not the common joe.
i think i could live without getting bored a solid 380 years
i believe the quote about the unverse being stranger than we can suppose is JBS Haldane originally…
Just wear a light sun shirt with the hood 15:57
12:20 yes, for about 100 years of living in my 20s and call it quits. Same lifespan just comfortable instead of aching
If the measurement always interacts then there is no observer effect there is just cause and effect, Why the outcome is like it is is still a question.
Re: sun allergy i get little itchy bumps after prolonged sun exposure if im not religious about applying sun block as well so i feel you
It's a shame because the observer effect and all the wuwu quantum stuff is fun to use as metaphors and references when writing about unrelated things
I suppose as long as we remember the sort of romanticized misconception of it doesn't reflect on the original reference the way we thought….
12:00 I think that I would become a different person over time. Old memories would fade, new memories would form. Eventually I would be the kind of person to stop taking the pill, but I can't say when. And then I might become the kind of person to start taking it again before I died of old age.
To the magic pill: given how much I've fallen apart in the last 2 years (I am now 37), I would absolutely take that pill… if this is 37, 45 seriously concerns me. However, i wouldn't take it forever, maybe just 5-10 years
I blame scientists for the role of the observer effect in spirituality. They were not clear about how this effect works. I still see headlines from studies "WE DECIDE REALITY BY OBSERVING". Shut UP.
The observer effect makes so sense. It’s the same as the question “if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?”
I just saw another video showing how their assumption that interfering with the particle was changing the state (wave to particle) by using a crystal to deflect light instead of a detector. The analize the signal particle then the idler particle. The result still was the same. I don't remember if you mentioned that in this video, but it's definitely worth looking into.
Could've cut out 80% of that sentence/explanation and just said quantum entanglement 4:00
Hey Joe, I used to think this; interference creating decoherence. However decoherence doesn’t happen with detectors or quantum entanglement it’s the recording of the information. Check out delayed choice quantum eraser experiment and prepare for an hour of silence!…
definitely, I will even volunteer for anti-ageing. Ageing sucks.
Yes. Probably 1000.
