gimme the GOD drat candy posted:again, the young people he revives will eventually become old. unless he plans to purge everyone who hits a certain age, it is inevitable. fetishizing youth doesn't change human nature or stop time. He doesn't care about the young aging, where did you get this idea, he just sees old people as too set in their ways to be part of his new world whereas young people will follow him and his ideology more willingly

The idea is that Tsukasa believes their society corrupted its youth so each generation would become like the one preceding it, greedy, self-centered, and toxic. By making a clean break and only reviving the young, he thinks he can resume society with more of a fresh start and no corruption from the previous generation. Whether his ideology hold up in practice or not isn't the point, his methods and Senku and Taiju's refusal to adhere to his messed up plan are the real conflict.

Manatee Cannon posted:tsukasa's ideology will lose but the threat he poses to senku personally is very real. tsukasa winning might not stop technology from progressing but it will slow it down by literally thousands of years, which is probably enough for him since I doubt he's thinking about what happens after he dies anyway The thing is Tsukasa's goal seems to be kinda ill-defined and stupid. If he wants to try to create a new society without science, he's doomed for all the reasons I mentioned before. If he only cares about his current life and doesn't care about anything beyond, then he can still revive adults without issue. The world has changed to the point that reviving adults will still not change it back to the old corrupt system anytime soon. It'll take decades if not centuries to reach the point where people can think about more than simple day-to-day survival and actually worry about politics and land ownership and the like. If anything he's actively making things harder and worse for himself by not reviving farmers who can work the land better, engineers/mechanics who can make living simpler by creating better tools, and doctors who can actively help with the numerous health issues that arise from living like ancient humans. The health issues of living in the society he's creating alone are nightmarish to me. It reminds me of an old joke : "200 years ago people had no vaccines and ate organic, unprocessed food with no additives and lived to the ripe old age of 'died in childbirth'". khy fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Aug 18, 2017 |

I really like that Senku makes the jump from having iron to building a dynamo (now, how he intends to use the dynamo is another question entirely, but hey). I think a lot of writers would try and use iron as the big advantage in and of itself--better weapons, sturdier tools, that kind of thing. But Senku immediately goes "Okay, no, I can turn this into a giant magnet, and from there I can bootstrap electricity, and with that I can...

Wasn't the iron just a middle step towards making an anti-biotic until that stage magician distracted him, anyway.

We don't deserve Boichi Also from last week the VIZ translation of the 'trick' is much clearer along with a bunch of other stuff. JB VIZ I love this manga so much it's so goddamn fun and I love how excited they all get over everything. Boichi's art really brings everything to life because there's always so much going on in the background. Suika is incredibly good and pure and I loved how amazing a stage magician would be to cavemen.

Elfgames posted:yeah he realized he needed something big to stop the magician from selling him out to tsukasa I think Iron into Dynamo was always the plan--in the big roadmap to the antibiotic, iron leads into electricity, so he can use electrolysis to get sodium hydroxide. It just *also* happens to be incredibly impressive to magician dude. Incidentally, I love how quickly he tosses aside the privileged position/all the ladies thing he'd be getting with Tsukasa, because the promise of eventually getting modern appliances is just so much better.

Electrolysis of salt water produces chlorine gas and NaOH. If you direct the chlorine gas back into the solution, it turns into chlorine bleach. You can use charcoal as an electrode. Also apparently the recipe for ether is just sulfuric acid and ethanol, which makes it pretty depressing no one was using it as an anesthetic until the 1800s. I've read a lot of wikipedia articles about chemicals.

The amount of reading I've had about chemicals jumped up about 600% or more when the science roadmap showed up. I'm curious why the sodium Bicarbonate image is a dog peeing though and not a box/can of baking soda. E: The problem with looking this stuff up on Wikipedia is that it doesn't go into much detail about production. Why do you need Sodium Hydroxide to make Ammonia? It's not listed!

Venuz Patrol posted:until germ theory everybody agreed that illness was caused by evil spirits and a poor blend of humours They did do surgery, and I'm sure people tried various things as anesthetic. My best guess is that ether is almost boiling at room temperature, so it's probably being produced as a gas, and you would have to pipe it into a flask or whatever immersed in cold water. And gasses seem to have been a major conceptual gap in things, as far as I can tell. People seemed to just think of "air" most of the time. The first person who produced CO2 called it "fixed air", and oxygen was called "dephlogisticated air", and then there was the "nature abhors a vacuum" thing. Solid-liquid-gas is child-level chemistry now, but if you don't think of it as a basic property of all substances, you wouldn't be looking for stuff that goes from liquid to gas at body temperature, so you have to deliberately condense it, but then it will stay in a bottle without much trouble. Or maybe it was just that anyone who decided to see what it smelled like gassed themselves to death in their tiny poorly-ventilated room and everyone went 'lol alchemists'. I guess gas as a medicine might be a pretty big leap.

If Tsukasa and his fathomless stamina had been around they'd have made the Iron even quicker and progressed towards the Sulfonamide drug that much quicker. Besides which, he made an excellent idiot for Senku to play off of. And eventually Senku needs to give him the Smartphone he's been dying to have, you know.
