- Comment on How much money's out there? 1 week ago:
The amount of supply and demand is always changing. As people create value, and create more people, money mediates the trading of supply and demand.
It is not zero sum and unchanging. If there is a global bumper year for agriculture, more value is produced. If there is a big natural disaster, value is lost. Demand also changes – mostly increases.
I’m not an economist and just making this shit up.

Holy shit that’s wild.
Web sites that amplify reports of mind control and group stalking" are “an extreme community that may encourage delusional thinking” and represent “a dark side of social networking. They may reinforce the troubled thinking of the mentally ill and impede treatment.”

Thanks for your answer. That makes a lot of sense.

I knew somebody who had a dog that could sense when they were about to have a seizure. I’m not sure that science knows how it works.

That is actually pretty debilitating now that I know this.
- Comment on An experimental setting. 2 weeks ago:
I would hypothesize that they are noticing Batman on an unconscious level, but it was not salient enough to enter their conscious thought processes. And therefore if you replicated the experiment with an interruption to the daily routine that does not have superhero morality connotations (e.g. the gorilla suit) the result might not be as pronounced, and not as many people would give up their seat to the pregnant lady.
But who knows? Pretty cool study!

This is awesome, thank you!
I wonder what the effect would be with a gorilla suit instead of a Batman…

Magnetism is complex and difficult to reduce down succinctly, but the real issue is that at the very base level, “why does magnetism exist” is no more explainable than “why do particles have spin?”
They didn’t know it, but ICP were asking an epistemological question.
I looked for a non-yt source, but the best explainer for how magnetism in everyday objects is built up from quantum mechanics that I could find easily was this by minute physics: m.youtube.com/watch?v=hFAOXdXZ5TM
