Brick Experiment Channel is a small but pretty rad channel where a guy beats the poo poo out of Lego in various different ways.

There's no narration but seeing various physical principles you learned in high school take a motor from lifting 2kg by itself to 226kg with a ton of gearing and pulleys is still quite educational....

Lots of nice creaking sounds, too.

A cool video about quants, also with an excellent soundtrack. This channel has tons of other docos that all seem good too.

Currently watching one about how embarrassing the UK is.

was glad to see this guy back again but he's giving off some major gammon/chud vibes since his return

He always gave off a bit of a chud thing imo. "I'm going to install fifty kilowatts of industrial electrical equipment into my townhouse's attic for no reason other than I feel like it" requires a bit of a libertarian mindset, I think, and then he ends up with not one but two mail order brides, and you're just like eeeeeehhhh
there was one video he did where he was doing something in his attic and every time he did it his mate would say that all the lights in the other houses on his street would dim or flicker. He knew what he was doing and must have spent a ton of money on various bits of his projects so while he was only a danger to himself I was happy to laugh at his gimmick.

but now yeah it feels like he might be entering the third and final stage of the harmless weirdo -> angry incel -> full on chud progression

A weirdly interesting video on sorting aglos. part 2 is where he gets into the radix sort algorithm but part one has some neat background stuff that never occurred to me at least.

His vid on branchless programming is pretty neat too

this might be the right thread to ask
to any Physicists out there who understand relativity, space time and gravity:
this video calls out a bunch of other YouTube videos about the cause of gravity. I’m not sure I understand it all but is it correct?

https://youtu.be/PjT85AxTmI0

I’d really like to know
Yes.

Or perhaps no.

I don't know, I've not watched it yet.

this whole series is great, as are most of his videos, at least if you're like me and interested in how electronics in synths etc work but didn't pay attention during high school physics

Incredibly nerdy but smart as heck. I’ve followed along in swift up till the JSON parser starts, the levels of generic fuckery are insane but when it finally compiles its great, also it’s kinda annoying that the f# doesn’t have much explicit typing (I guess?) which means you have to figure out a bunch of stuff yourself even if he shows the code.
