Hello /sci/ what are some good math/science related youtube channels? Also how much of pic related or numberphile or other pop sci channels is truth and how much is garbage?

Stop reposting this.

Used to watch "hi michael, vsauce here" some years ago but felt it got too theoretical.
Like that last video with the cake experiment.
>cut the cake in half many times
>lol infinite surface area and still the same mass
There is a point where you can't cut the shit more due to basic material science, triggers my autistic ass.

The channel is for thought experiments, not "real" science.

Well you fucking disgusting lazy faggot why don't you go fucking check their sources that they fucking list on their fucking videos and see for yourself how fucking reliable it is you fucking fuck piece of fuck lazy piece of fucking shit.

Seriously, people. Why do some of you think that you can come here and have us do your leg work? THE SOURCES ARE OUT THERE! READ THEM! COMPARE THEM TO OTHER STUDIES! This is 2015, the age of information for fuck's sake.

You could call it that but he said himself that this was mathematics.

It is simply taking the logic of x approaching infinity and applying that to things you would not expect for that to be possible. It may not be traditional science but it is still solid mathematics.

I'm taking actual university classes you fuckwits but I want to spend my spare time learning interesting things on youtube rather than watching dumb entertainment. Why do you spergs always assume people are trying to get their whole education off of informative youtube videos?

>>7728803
oh that's alright then, bruv

honestly, though, if you wish to spend your spare time learning interesting things, use khan academy instead

i could not give two shits if you watch youtube or not, btw, just pulling your c-c-c--chain

It's Jacob Lurie talking about categorifying the Fourier transform

not that well known and not longer in production is
"zogg from betelgeuse"
"Artifexian"
"universetoday"
"standupmaths" (matt parker from numberphile)
"singingbanana" (james grime, also numberphile)
"10thdim"

More poular, you maybe already know them:
"FW: Thinking" (though its veeery popular science)
"engineerguy"
"pbs spacetime"
"In a Nutshell – Kurzgesagt"
"Objectivity"
"sci show"
"sci show space"
"crashcourse"
"It's Okay To Be Smart"
"thebrainscoop"
"AsapSCIENCE"
and "Vi Hart"

thats all i'm subscribed to

the rest (vsauce, vertiasium, cgp grey) i expect you to know.

https://www.youtube.com/user/VideosatNSF has some pretty neat videos on a variety of topics. They're a little bit childish, but if you're really interested you go look at the actual researchers' papers or blogs or whatever.
https://www.youtube.com/user/potholer54 is the best at his kind of video.
https://www.youtube.com/user/Thunderf00t is often interesting if you ignore the feminism shitfights.
https://www.youtube.com/user/greenman3610 I really like, but then I'm interested in climate change.

I can not stand numberphile/vsauce/etc. They're brutal.

Idk why you'd ask about other youtubers. Vsauce is all you need. Contained within his videos is all human knowledge. It is litteraly all anyone could ever need ever and he is the greatest genius of our time expect for maybe Langan, Wildberger, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson.

Unironically going to recommend Wildburger. Funny, with great antics. Knowledgeable, but still entertaining.
