I've got it in
00:02:56
and we go.
00:03:00
Good afternoon.
00:03:02
Welcome to Fradge, fradge, Fradge Rants.
00:03:07
We're not racist, Fladge Rants
00:03:10
Live where Fladge Rants live.
00:03:13
I'm Gary and I would like to hope
00:03:16
that all of your rants are Fladge.
00:03:19
I'm Brady and I hope the same.
00:03:22
Outstanding.
00:03:24
You know, I chose stuff today
00:03:27
because you eat too much.
00:03:28
Oh, that.
00:03:30
Everything bagel made me a little hungry.
00:03:32
But no, I painted myself in the corner by calling last weeks.
00:03:35
Nothing. I had to do everything.
00:03:37
But I will not be issued an ultimatum.
00:03:39
Not even from me.
00:03:41
Everything is a bit too vast. Might.
00:03:44
We might not have enough time to cover everything.
00:03:46
If I just sat here and listed everything
00:03:49
in reality, everything that exists.
00:03:52
Well, I would have to include the list of everything that exists
00:03:55
in my list of everything that exists.
00:03:57
There's a paradox there somewhere.
00:03:59
How many locks does a pair of them
00:04:03
have ducks?
00:04:04
Mm hmm.
00:04:06
I got to make sure to try and keep the mic close to my face.
00:04:08
Yeah, you're not good at that.
00:04:10
That's because I'm doing 17 other things that there's usually,
00:04:12
like, a production person or at least a director. Do.
00:04:15
I can just rant. I'll give you a mini rant.
00:04:18
We should rant.
00:04:19
You should rant a little at least.
00:04:21
It's right in the name.
00:04:22
Well, here.
00:04:23
I'm not even sure if we're actually live and active yet because it takes a minute.
00:04:26
Well, I call it stuff, but what I really wanted to talk about was mathematics.
00:04:31
But no one no one would tune in if we called it math.
00:04:35
So I tricked you.
00:04:36
But listen, listen up. It's not that bad.
00:04:39
My rant goes a little like this.
00:04:41
Math is short for mathematics, and so it's already plural.
00:04:45
But in the UK, they call it maths.
00:04:48
Well, talking about, you know, algebra, geometry, trigonometry,
00:04:53
calculus,
00:04:55
all the different kinds of mathematics.
00:04:58
Well, mathematics is already plural, so math is plural.
00:05:01
So maths is stupid.
00:05:04
Like runs batted in in baseball.
00:05:08
RBI like this guy had six RBI the other day.
00:05:13
It's not our RBI's.
00:05:14
It'd be RBI, but it's RBI.
00:05:17
No apostrophe.
00:05:18
Yes, that that annoys me.
00:05:22
So it's not maths, it's math.
00:05:25
And it is plural.
00:05:29
Where do you start with math?
00:05:30
With everything else, you start with the Greeks.
00:05:33
Euclid, Plato, Aristotle, Socrates.
00:05:37
Archimedes.
00:05:39
You may have heard of Pythagoras.
00:05:42
From the Pythagorean theorem.
00:05:45
We'll get back to the Greeks later.
00:05:47
The reason I'm calling the mathematics
00:05:50
episode stuff is because for an abstract concept,
00:05:55
arithmetic, math numbers,
00:05:58
geometry, mathematics,
00:06:02
maths on a reality. So.
00:06:03
Well, we can make predictions, accurate predictions, all based on mathematics.
00:06:10
It's debatable whether we
00:06:13
discovered mathematics or we invented mathematics.
00:06:17
It's.
00:06:18
And it's worth it's worth debating.
00:06:20
But that's alright for another day to
00:06:25
interject.
00:06:26
I hope you do.
00:06:26
I think math is there whether we even think about it.
00:06:30
Agreed
00:06:32
otherwise, like the predictions in quantum physics
00:06:36
being accurate to the sixth decimal place.
00:06:40
That is crazy accurate.
00:06:42
And so I don't think it was an invention.
00:06:45
I think it was a discovery.
00:06:50
It's it's not just.
00:06:52
It's the whole universe. But nature.
00:06:55
Nature uses mathematics, the Fibonacci sequence, golden ratio.
00:07:00
These things are
00:07:01
integrated into the system.
00:07:04
I love the patterns like a
00:07:08
sunflower.
00:07:08
The seed pattern is the Fibonacci sequence, the Nautilus shell.
00:07:14
That's the golden ratio.
00:07:16
There's some look at these patterns.
00:07:19
This is gorgeous.
00:07:21
Isn't nature beautiful?
00:07:25
And this.
00:07:26
I mean, this is. Oh, look at those spirals.
00:07:29
Oh, here's the thing.
00:07:31
It's both.
00:07:32
It's both the Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio.
00:07:36
Because the further along the Fibonacci sequence you go, the closer
00:07:40
to the actual value of the golden ratio.
00:07:44
You get a 1.618.
00:07:46
We'll just use that.
00:07:49
The reason I don't really oh is that that's Euler.
00:07:53
A couple of things.
00:07:54
When you say you'll see like Fibonacci sequence and no offense
00:07:57
for any of our viewers actually draw, but they might not even know what that is.
00:08:01
Oh well, we should draw a dumb ass.
00:08:03
That's make sure you explain everything by Euler.
00:08:05
Who is that? That's Fibonacci. Right click on it.
00:08:08
Yeah, please do make sure importance.
00:08:12
Okay.
00:08:12
He's the one that came up with the 011 to be this right here.
00:08:17
Eight.
00:08:19
So basically what that is, is one plus one is two.
00:08:22
One plus two is three, three plus five is eight.
00:08:24
And it goes on forever and ever.
00:08:26
And and it makes the golden ratio spiral
00:08:30
as it goes out, which is like snails and shit.
00:08:33
Yes. Like the Nautilus
00:08:36
thing about
00:08:39
where do I start with nature going awry?
00:08:43
It's kind of bread, right?
00:08:44
Yeah, exactly.
00:08:47
Aces aren't perfectly symmetrical.
00:08:50
My hands aren't the exact same.
00:08:52
It's. I'm not.
00:08:53
I've got bilateral symmetry, but it's not perfect.
00:08:56
When a show grows, it's feast or famine.
00:09:02
It's sometimes it eats.
00:09:03
Sometimes it gets enough rest, sometimes it gets enough exercise.
00:09:06
But it doesn't grow and feed and rest
00:09:11
and an even enough integral to
00:09:16
an interval.
00:09:18
What did I say?
00:09:19
Integral is very, very important.
00:09:21
It's a very important segment of a sequence.
00:09:23
I derailed myself. You can have an integral interval.
00:09:27
I'm about to have a
00:09:29
meltdown, a no fly brain, a rant rant around about bunch of rain.
00:09:33
You had a roast of flags, the first annual fladge rats roast of fladge.
00:09:40
We will have fladge rants. Fladge?
00:09:42
Absolutely.
00:09:42
Okay, so not on only show
00:09:45
if you actually measure it is is not a perfect golden ratio.
00:09:49
Well, then it doesn't count.
00:09:50
We got to take it off the screen.
00:09:52
We do have to take it off the screen because that's not what this is about.
00:09:56
I thought novelists was exercise equipment
00:09:59
and named after the the sea creature.
00:10:02
They are beautiful, though.
00:10:05
Let's let's get back to the the Greeks.
00:10:09
How about the Greeks? Socrates is great.
00:10:12
He was trying to describe the universe.
00:10:13
They still use the Socratic method.
00:10:17
You mean Socratic method?
00:10:18
Basically. Here's how the Socratic method works.
00:10:20
Socrates would ask a student, a pupil of his, Do you just name anything?
00:10:25
Or he would assign the the thing I
00:10:29
it could be a noun, any
00:10:30
anything or a feeling or any any word.
00:10:33
And then he would be asked to define it
00:10:36
and the description had to be thorough.
00:10:39
And then
00:10:41
Socrates would poke holes in it
00:10:43
and name examples of contradictions or, or,
00:10:50
or ways in which the definition was not complete.
00:10:54
And that they used question after question after question
00:10:58
until you built up the definition
00:11:01
so that it was exhaustively robust.
00:11:03
Of course, this this method has no ending.
00:11:07
You don't you don't ever have to stop.
00:11:10
But what you but you obviously you don't have eternity
00:11:14
to spend defining a single word.
00:11:17
So it's just a useful exercise.
00:11:21
But it it so much better describes the world around us than
00:11:28
just the original definition, which which
00:11:33
most surely was a scholarly, scholarly answer
00:11:36
because he was asking, you know, one of his top pupils.
00:11:39
So they still teach that in college to
00:11:42
the Socratic method, radical method.
00:11:47
I kind of want to do a new segment I started last week
00:11:50
with the Mount Rushmore.
00:11:51
It's like a Four Horsemen of something.
00:11:53
I gave you my Mount Rushmore of sitcoms.
00:11:57
I believe it was Seinfeld, MASH, Friends and Simpsons.
00:12:01
That's based on popularity.
00:12:03
If I was going to do a TV shows, Mount Rushmore of my favorites, it would go
00:12:08
Star Trek, The Next Generation, Heroes, Vikings and Breaking Bad Heroes.
00:12:13
Oh, boy, I love you.
00:12:15
Just the first two seasons.
00:12:16
No, they they didn't ruined it.
00:12:18
They did. Jumped the shark.
00:12:21
Bizarre.
00:12:22
If you were to our viewers even know what that
00:12:24
Happy Days reference
00:12:27
actually was alive to see the that that whole episode.
00:12:30
Oh wow.
00:12:30
It was quite an event I wasn't born yet They didn't call it jumping the shark.
00:12:34
They just called it it was on water skis, wasn't it?
00:12:37
I think it was sweeps week.
00:12:39
Oh, I don't remember because I get a confused.
00:12:41
There's one where he jumps a motorcycle and then crashes into a beach, crashes
00:12:45
into something. No, it's like a carnival you'd stand.
00:12:48
Oh, then there's another one where he actually
00:12:51
something happens before he jumps it.
00:12:53
It's a cliffhanger.
00:12:54
I don't want I don't want to spoil it.
00:12:55
No spoilers.
00:12:57
So I've been around for if you if you want to be a great mathematician,
00:13:00
you've got to have an equation that people use.
00:13:04
Oh, here's a nice rant for you.
00:13:06
Wait, what's the difference between an equation and a formula?
00:13:09
Uh oh.
00:13:11
An equation is just a two to equal sides.
00:13:14
A formula is it doesn't have to have an equal sign as to have at least two
00:13:20
got now variables.
00:13:22
Something to
00:13:25
relating.
00:13:26
Well, okay. Sorry.
00:13:28
I know I love this.
00:13:29
This is great mathematical relation relationship
00:13:32
rule.
00:13:38
The equation is made up of expressions that equal each other.
00:13:40
A formula is an equation with two or more variables that represent a relationship.
00:13:43
Building the variables.
00:13:45
It has to make sense.
00:13:46
I never quite understood that, but. Oh okay.
00:13:49
Oh, that's fantastic.
00:13:50
I can do math. I can't explain.
00:13:53
Here's what makes me mad.
00:13:54
What's the equation that Einstein is known for?
00:13:58
Theory of relativity.
00:14:00
I'll just answer over a theory of relativity is what he is known for.
00:14:03
The equation is equals M.C. squared.
00:14:05
What ticks me off is he didn't come up with all the equations in any way
00:14:10
When you mean he didn't come up with it, he didn't in order to point it.
00:14:12
Well, all math already existed. All we're doing is finding it.
00:14:16
Einstein unlocking it.
00:14:17
Einstein Field equations didn't exist before Einstein.
00:14:21
He came up with Einsteins field equations,
00:14:23
and that's what he's really known for equals M.C.
00:14:25
Squared he just popularized with relativity.
00:14:28
But that was his his big thing
00:14:33
is a slow reveal.
00:14:34
But I'm going to give you my four horsemen of mathematics.
00:14:37
Of course, I have to include a Greek
00:14:40
and I'm going to go Archimedes.
00:14:43
But Euclid is a great example of another.
00:14:47
What if I can only include one Greek?
00:14:50
Archimedes?
00:14:51
He was
00:14:53
centuries ahead of his time, if not millennia.
00:14:57
Newton was centuries out of time.
00:14:59
Einstein was decades ahead.
00:15:02
So they're in the conversation.
00:15:04
But I only have three spots left.
00:15:06
So Carl Friedrich Gauss has to be in the list.
00:15:10
He is the single greatest mathematician of all time.
00:15:13
I already mentioned Leonard Euler.
00:15:18
His work on
00:15:19
number theory and set theory just staggering.
00:15:22
He was blind for most of that.
00:15:26
That only leaves
00:15:27
one more spot, and a lot of people would put Newton or Einstein there.
00:15:30
I've got to go. James. Max.
00:15:32
James. Clerk Maxwell
00:15:35
for the equations describing
00:15:37
electromagnetic fields and is
00:15:41
James Clerk Maxwell is the greatest
00:15:46
that has has to him attributed the greatest equations,
00:15:50
the most useful at describing reality.
00:15:55
I know those are all good, those are all good names.
00:15:59
And and you won't see Maxwell on the list.
00:16:02
I don't see Maxwell on the list.
00:16:03
I know.
00:16:05
Here's what he did.
00:16:06
Here's what Maxwell really did.
00:16:08
He made the calculus less cumbersome.
00:16:13
There's Mandelbrot have Meanwhile Mandelbrot.
00:16:16
Oh, we'll get to the Mandelbrot set.
00:16:18
That's just beautiful fractal
00:16:23
Others this Gauss
00:16:29
James Clerk
00:16:30
Maxwell, look at that magnificent beard.
00:16:33
Yeah no one includes him and that's electromagnetics.
00:16:38
Hello.
00:16:39
He was
00:16:41
his equations are so important.
00:16:46
Are they decent because he's Scottish.
00:16:48
What's going on with that?
00:16:51
It's awesome.
00:16:52
He made calculus beautiful
00:16:56
and that was just in his spare time.
00:16:58
What does that mean exactly?
00:17:00
The notations made it prettier, colorful and more understandable.
00:17:04
He came up with the shorthand for it.
00:17:07
It was.
00:17:08
It was much
00:17:13
Wilhelm Godfried.
00:17:14
Linus took credit for discovering the calculus
00:17:17
because Newton hadn't published it yet, and he shared it with them. But.
00:17:22
But the terms they were using were just too long and stupid, and
00:17:26
we don't even know what they were using because Maxwell came along, cleaned it up,
00:17:32
and now it's,
00:17:34
you know, single character for each variable.
00:17:39
I mean, there's there's a lot more to the calculus.
00:17:41
I'm not I'm not going to explain calculus in it,
00:17:46
but it does describe
00:17:48
the world around us accurately.
00:17:53
You know, they how they discovered black holes.
00:17:57
They discovered it came out of the math
00:18:00
long before we actually observed one.
00:18:14
It is he's in the conversation.
00:18:16
Long is here
00:18:19
not on the Mount Rushmore.
00:18:21
I've I've only given or spots
00:18:23
I got to go Archimedes Gauss
00:18:28
Euler I've got a weak spot for Euler
00:18:30
that only leaves one more spot and no one gives Maxwell the credit he deserves.
00:18:33
So he gets it.
00:18:35
And I know I'm leaving out Newton and Einstein, and it doesn't make any sense,
00:18:39
but we're going to cut out Gauss, the greatest mathematician of all time.
00:18:43
Ramanujan deserves to be on there.
00:18:47
He I wanted to save him for later, but
00:18:52
Alan Turing.
00:18:54
You know what?
00:18:54
Alan Turing was known for three things.
00:18:57
Three major things.
00:18:59
Codebreaker. Yeah.
00:19:01
I'm World War two.
00:19:02
He solved the Nazi code.
00:19:05
Number two, he's the father of computers is all computers.
00:19:10
We're called Turing machines.
00:19:12
As a matter of fact, the the test for general artificial
00:19:15
intelligence is called the Turing Test.
00:19:18
Ben played him in the movie.
00:19:20
Oh, yes, he did.
00:19:23
The the the reason I'm bringing him up in this conversation
00:19:27
is because he came up with morphogenesis or something like that.
00:19:31
I don't think I'm getting the name right, but he came up with the the formulas
00:19:36
for how patterns are made.
00:19:40
The stripes and cheetah's spots.
00:19:43
And it's just a catalyst, that inhibitor.
00:19:48
And then
00:19:49
as a reaction spreads out through
00:19:51
a biological process, the
00:19:56
if it was all inhibitors, it would all come out one color.
00:20:00
If it was all catalysts, it would all come up another color.
00:20:06
The only other interesting thing besides the three major accomplishment
00:20:10
was he was he was gay and he was convicted
00:20:14
and it was a capital offense in the UK at the time.
00:20:17
But he was a World War two hero.
00:20:20
What are you going to do?
00:20:20
Execute The guy who stopped the Nazis is the single.
00:20:24
He's the reason that Winston Churchill isn't responsible
00:20:28
for the UK speaking German right now. So
00:20:33
so when he but when he was released from prison for fear
00:20:36
of being convicted of homosexuality, he took his own life.
00:20:43
So he Ramanujan died young too, but he was sickly.
00:20:46
Indian guy did move to England.
00:20:49
It wasn't gay, but was was so sick that he ended up dying
00:20:53
in his late thirties and he could have been on my list as well.
00:20:57
But what Turing did the
00:21:00
the work on wooden math to the spots on a cheetah
00:21:05
and the stripes on a zebra and a tiger and all the patterns you see in nature.
00:21:11
And it is accurate.
00:21:24
Sorry, I was just watching what he
00:21:31
shouldn't.
00:21:37
I know.
00:21:38
Did I get past the Greeks yet?
00:21:39
Charles Darwin.
00:21:40
Does he comfort? Nope.
00:21:43
Alexander Graham Bell He used he applied math Thomas
00:21:47
Edison they all I think the application being that I'm a field engineer.
00:21:50
Yeah. Application of math.
00:21:52
Using math to me is
00:21:55
I will said way more important, but it's clearly different.
00:21:58
It's behind the curtain.
00:21:59
Nowadays, every scientific discipline is mathematics.
00:22:05
I agree.
00:22:07
But I'm saying behind the engine of everything is mathematics.
00:22:11
Math is truth.
00:22:12
Math is truth.
00:22:16
Was the worst,
00:22:17
worst mathematician in your opinion.
00:22:21
Not sure how to quantify that.
00:22:23
Right? Right.
00:22:25
I'm going to give it to Ramanujan.
00:22:27
He actually had the proof of the increasing set.
00:22:32
One over two plus one over three plus one over four plus one over five.
00:22:35
Had the whole thing equal negative one 12th and he proved it
00:22:40
and it can't it's stupid of you to prove that zero is one, too.
00:22:47
Yeah, you can prove that zero is one. Also
00:22:52
clearly isn't right.
00:22:54
The way I just said math is truth.
00:22:56
And it was You just gave two examples right here is not.
00:22:59
Yes. Well, who believe your eyes people
00:23:02
but his proof
00:23:03
that that particular the negative one 12th proof that's what
00:23:07
but people's attention and got him flown over to England
00:23:12
it was brilliant but those mathematicians that they had drawn
00:23:15
their name started with auto
00:23:18
you know the German
00:23:21
right.
00:23:21
Some mathematicians there that did some.
00:23:26
Oh, I see.
00:23:30
Not going there.
00:23:31
Okay, good.
00:23:32
Well, will not let them take me.
00:23:39
Give me then
00:23:40
give me the Mandelbrot.
00:23:44
It is so pretty here.
00:23:45
Here's different iterations. If you
00:23:49
if you put a number into a very simple equation and the numbers
00:23:54
have to be in a very small range and some of them are imaginary.
00:23:58
Now, what I mean by imaginary is there
00:24:01
the the square root of negative numbers which
00:24:05
is there and I'll set
00:24:10
now imaginary
00:24:10
numbers and negative square roots are important.
00:24:14
Without them, we wouldn't have such advanced electronics.
00:24:19
But the thing I got to make sure I've learned something.
00:24:23
Yeah, I need to watch real quick to make sure after something I saw last night.
00:24:27
Yeah, that the video is actually. What?
00:24:31
Oh, no, this isn't the good one. I don't.
00:24:33
I like the one that goes more. That's pretty good.
00:24:35
I like the linear one.
00:24:37
So if, if the number you plug in to the thing
00:24:40
and then reenter the that answer and then reenter that answer,
00:24:43
if it does, if the number doesn't blow up after a certain number of iterations,
00:24:47
it gets a certain color.
00:24:49
So now 100 iterations, a thousand, 5000,
00:24:53
it's different colors for when they leave the area
00:24:57
that the very small circle of area of the Mandelbrot set.
00:25:02
And if they never leave, they get the darkest, you know,
00:25:06
that's in the Mandelbrot set and then the fringes,
00:25:10
it varying colors for
00:25:13
how long before they leave the set. So
00:25:17
it ends up
00:25:19
with this incredible pattern
00:25:23
that is absolutely spectacular.
00:25:33
All of them have good music with them,
00:25:36
knows out to the music.
00:25:50
I know I wanted to send you a link
00:25:55
for my eye break, but
00:26:00
you sent me the text saying you were going to send me the.
00:26:03
There is no, I'm. I'm not in there.
00:26:06
Maybe we shouldn't take a break.
00:26:07
Just I'm.
00:26:09
I'm about to anyway, so
00:26:12
enjoy the Mandelbrot set.
00:26:16
Well,
00:26:16
I watch the thing I can put on a longer one here.
00:26:19
Let's.
00:26:19
Let's explain the Mandelbrot set
00:26:21
and then we'll come back and talk about the look of stuff and YouTube
00:26:25
above.
00:26:31
Now, the only reference I had
00:26:33
prepared was I was mad about math being called maths.
00:26:36
It sounds Ooh. Oh he sounds.
00:26:41
There we go.
00:26:43
That will do
00:26:45
sound like I mean
00:26:47
it's pretty obvious they taste good, but listening to them
00:26:52
is the mandelbrot set and instrument.
00:26:55
Now Patrick, the Mandelbrot set is not an instrument.
00:26:59
Or is it so real quick, I know this isn't a hyperbolic vlog,
00:27:04
this was just an idea I had and I was just so curious about it.
00:27:07
I had to try it, so I coded up a quick prototype in just a couple hours.
00:27:13
Now, in order to explain the instrument I'm about to show you,
00:27:16
I need to first quickly explain what the Mandelbrot set really is.
00:27:20
Most people know it as a following.
00:27:22
You take any point C on the complex plane, make a copy of it,
00:27:25
call it Z, and then just keep updating Z with this equation.
00:27:29
Thousands of times.
00:27:31
If the point eventually drifts off to infinity,
00:27:34
it's not part of the set and gets assigned a color,
00:27:37
but if it converges or goes into a cycle or something,
00:27:40
then it is part of the set and we color black.
00:27:46
Note that you don't
00:27:47
actually need to use or even understand complex numbers.
00:27:50
Regular old X and Y work to.
00:27:53
It just makes the equation look less elegant.
00:27:56
But what is the path each point takes as it iterates?
00:28:00
Well, here I can actually show how that looks,
00:28:03
depending on which point you start with, it will either converge to a point, escape
00:28:08
to infinity, or converge to a cycle called an orbit.
00:28:13
These orbits can have different periods like three or four
00:28:18
or five in different shapes by just choosing different points.
00:28:23
And so all this interesting structure
00:28:24
and nuance is lost when we just color of black.
00:28:28
And it got me thinking, what if we treat these orbits as sound waves?
00:28:33
Then I could listen to different parts of the Mandelbrot set
00:28:36
and hear how they sound.
00:28:38
So the
00:28:38
way this works is basically I just convert the X and y coordinates
00:28:42
to the amplitude of the left and right speakers.
00:28:45
I choose a low sampling rate like eight kilohertz
00:28:49
and use some interpolation to smooth it to a more standard 48 kilohertz.
00:28:53
Now, it's really easy to tell the period of the orbit
00:28:56
because you can hear the fundamental frequencies.
00:29:14
Another neat thing is that as you
00:29:16
zoom in, each bulb adds another harmonic on top of the original one,
00:29:21
depending on which bulb you choose.
00:29:33
Oh, yeah.
00:29:33
And you can't zoom in too far because this all runs on the CPU in real time.
00:29:38
So that means it has a limited precision.
00:29:41
Also, these pure tones are kind of annoying,
00:29:43
so I'm going to add some dampening to make it more like an instrument.
00:30:03
Although it's really fun to play around with.
00:30:06
The problem with the Mandelbrot set is that all
00:30:08
the interesting, chaotic areas are unstable,
00:30:12
so you can never actually click on them because you'd need infinite precision.
00:30:17
So the orbit will always converge to some kind of repeating pattern,
00:30:21
which will just sound like a combination of pure tones.
00:30:24
If we want to hear some more interesting sounds,
00:30:27
we have to switch to some different fractals.
00:30:30
This one is called the burning ship Fractal,
00:30:33
because that's exactly what it looks like over here.
00:30:36
The nice thing about this fractal is that it has chaotic regions
00:30:40
that are actually stable and some sound really creepy,
00:31:07
but still a little hard to tell what's going on when the fractal
00:31:10
is entirely black.
00:31:11
So I'll add some coloring based on the orbit.
00:31:45
There's regions that converge to a point,
00:31:48
to a cycle and a chaos in different ways.
00:31:52
Speaking of fractal variance,
00:31:54
here's one that I came up with that I call a feather fractal.
00:31:57
There's a few reasons I like it.
00:31:59
First of all,
00:32:00
there's a ton of good clusters everywhere that have different notes to play,
00:32:04
so it feels much more like some kind of infinite piano where you can zoom in
00:32:08
and find all sorts of different notes with different tonal relations.
00:32:15
Uh uh uh.
00:32:25
The other reason I like it is that it just looks so cool.
00:32:28
I mean, look how beautiful this is.
00:32:58
Now let's switch from beautiful to ugly again.
00:33:01
This fractal I'm calling the sound effects fractal.
00:33:04
It doesn't look like much, but it has an extreme variety of sound effects
00:33:07
it can make because the orbits have a really interesting symmetry.
00:33:33
Oh, Looking at the orbit colors reveals a really rich
00:33:38
and complicated structure which shows why there are so many sounds you can make.
00:33:43
It reminds me a lot of those SFX ah programs that are used a lot in game
00:33:46
jams and I'm pretty sure this fractal one could be useful
00:33:50
for that too.
00:34:08
If you're familiar with fractals
00:34:09
already, you may be wondering what about the Julia sets?
00:34:13
Well, the reason I didn't mention them is because they're usually really boring,
00:34:18
at least in terms of audio for the Mandelbrot set.
00:34:21
Any point on the Julia set will converge to exactly the same orbit
00:34:25
as the point corresponding on the Mandelbrot set.
00:34:43
Now some other fractals can behave that way.
00:34:45
A little early break.
00:34:47
For example, there's some Julia sets of the burning set fractal
00:34:50
that by stable that are going to go longer
00:34:53
and converge to one of two orbits depending on the starting point.
00:34:56
And it left. So I don't want to interrupt now
00:35:09
and if you want to get
00:35:10
even more exotic, I found that some chaotic maps
00:35:13
such as the terracotta map, do actually have continuum aims
00:35:16
for the Julia orbits
00:35:24
and anyway, this whole program is available
00:35:35
on my studio page and the source code is on my GitHub.
00:35:39
Honestly, it's easy to waste hours just exploring and finding new sounds.
00:35:43
Hours.
00:35:43
Check it out and don't worry, I'll be back with more hyperbolic stuff soon.
00:35:49
Thank you.
00:35:49
Please check out his site, his channel, his YouTube.
00:35:54
Oh yeah.
00:35:55
Oh yeah. Oh, hi.
00:35:57
I just didn't want to cut it short because he's going to show.
00:36:00
No, he deserves it.
00:36:02
Look at that.
00:36:04
Fantastic.
00:36:05
It's not my mouse.
00:36:08
I can move it
00:36:10
to. Farmers are sitting on a field
00:36:12
of view of ducks fly over and you know, it's two lines that meet in the middle.
00:36:18
At a point he said, You know why that that line of birds is longer
00:36:21
than the other one, or that there's more ducks in that row or ducks in
00:36:28
a joke.
00:36:33
I'm not because I'm not sure.
00:36:35
Typically, if I'm not sure, then
00:36:38
they probably weren't sure either.
00:36:40
I just wanted to make sure.
00:36:44
Nothing like being sure
00:36:45
whether ten people watching us
00:36:50
or not.
00:36:50
The chat was 1211.
00:36:52
Oh, see, as soon as you said that. Oh.
00:36:54
Oh, sorry.
00:36:56
We should. Yeah.
00:36:57
Maybe you should talk more.
00:36:58
Oh, maybe I should talk less.
00:37:01
Thank you. Goodnight.
00:37:01
I've been incoherent.
00:37:06
So little out of my mouth
00:37:09
that awesome
00:37:12
mumble out of
00:37:14
nothing that maps on to reality
00:37:16
quite as elegantly as mathematics.
00:37:20
Maths,
00:37:23
maths, math.
00:37:26
Now, the quantum physicists say
00:37:29
that everything can be expressed
00:37:32
as a wave function.
00:37:37
That's pretty interesting.
00:37:39
Um, I had Brady put up a everything
00:37:42
bagel cause everything tie in.
00:37:45
I told draw
00:37:46
that I painted myself into a corner, so I had to call this episode everything
00:37:51
And the
00:37:52
Bagel is a pretty interesting concept
00:37:56
because I think one of the, the theories of everything,
00:38:01
maybe string theory or some
00:38:06
hyperbolic
00:38:08
shape of the universe, where if you keep going in one direction
00:38:12
for long enough, you end up at the beginning again.
00:38:15
And the shape of that universe is a bagel
00:38:19
or a donut or, you know, a peach ring.
00:38:23
You see those candy? Peach rings?
00:38:25
Yeah. I don't like them.
00:38:26
I don't like them either.
00:38:28
I should I rant about peach rings
00:38:30
is seriously all
00:38:33
good with candy.
00:38:34
There's a lot of candy that I love.
00:38:36
Oh. Oh.
00:38:37
If you speak ill of any other candy.
00:38:41
Jelly jelly belly are my fat.
00:38:44
Oh, those are so good.
00:38:46
Next week, Florence, all the candies we love.
00:38:51
No, I'm going to tease.
00:38:52
Up next week.
00:38:54
I'm talking about balls.
00:38:56
No one's got the balls to say it, but you'll hear it right here.
00:39:00
I'm serious.
00:39:01
Next week, Balls.
00:39:03
Oh, I can't wait.
00:39:11
Or should we just cover balls right now? No.
00:39:15
I'm so thrilled by the Einsteins
00:39:19
Field equations is there's four of them with three variables.
00:39:24
So that gives us a total of 12 different equations.
00:39:27
But there's actually repeats because they end up being the same as a couple others.
00:39:33
So there's eight in all.
00:39:35
Once you you plug in all the variables.
00:39:39
Maxwell's equations are probably the most useful.
00:39:43
We've got.
00:39:45
We've covered the Pythagorean theorem,
00:39:47
A squared plus B squared equals C squared.
00:39:50
That's important.
00:39:51
I did say that I'm not the biggest fan of PI because 3.14.
00:39:57
I mean, you get a very good approximation with just 22 over seven,
00:40:02
only two divided by seven gives you close enough to PI that it's usable.
00:40:07
You realize that there was a rumor
00:40:10
around that one of the great artists or some great mathematician
00:40:14
or some great teacher was able to draw a perfect circle.
00:40:19
And I don't know if you anchor your elbow, maybe you could.
00:40:22
I don't.
00:40:23
It's not true. That's not true.
00:40:26
Perfect shapes don't exist in nature.
00:40:31
That's why I was
00:40:32
talking about the Nautilus shell not being the perfect golden ratio
00:40:35
because it grows at different paces and, you know, growth spurts happen.
00:40:40
And I don't think we would
00:40:43
it would be as beautiful.
00:40:45
It was if it was perfect, perfect symmetry.
00:40:48
Tom Cruise,
00:40:50
a great example.
00:40:51
Everybody thinks he's a big hunk, even though he's a little pipsqueak
00:40:56
and he believes in Scientology, which is absolutely asinine.
00:41:00
Like a lot of these things are fiction because they're made up.
00:41:02
But this is actually based on a work of fiction by a science fiction author.
00:41:08
So the but that's, again, a rant for another day.
00:41:13
But because his face is not perfectly symmetrical, he is considered handsome.
00:41:18
I think he would look weird if if our faces were perfectly.
00:41:23
But you don't see perfect symmetry.
00:41:25
You see approximations close enough
00:41:28
like 22 over seven.
00:41:32
Do the face American experiment
00:41:33
where you can look at your face, two lefts or two, right?
00:41:37
So and it's two different people.
00:41:38
Different people.
00:41:40
I highly recommend everyone do that.
00:41:42
Yeah, This one's all right.
00:41:44
This one's hideous.
00:41:47
And I kind of missed it, and I can't let it go.
00:41:51
Clearly. You like pi.
00:41:53
I do.
00:41:55
What's your favorite pi? Picard's mine.
00:41:58
Let's do a mount Rushmore of Pi.
00:42:00
I don't like sweet cherry apple icon.
00:42:04
Uh, I want to do a meringue, but I don't like lemon.
00:42:10
Maybe a cream.
00:42:11
I'm going to go Boston cream.
00:42:13
Shout out to my mother in law.
00:42:14
This is a rhubarb.
00:42:17
Rhubarb.
00:42:18
I've got wild rhubarb growing in my backyard right now.
00:42:20
I like it because if you eat it wrong, it'll kill you.
00:42:23
Yes. Yeah.
00:42:25
Yeah.
00:42:26
Well, like shoveling, you know, So you can't breathe.
00:42:29
That's eating around.
00:42:29
No, no.
00:42:30
Well, that, that too.
00:42:31
But if you eat the wrong part.
00:42:33
Oh yeah.
00:42:34
Or, or not cooked properly or something like that,
00:42:38
eat Well I don't, I don't, I know how to eat.
00:42:40
I don't know how to cook.
00:42:41
Oh that's on the list of every man
00:42:46
should be able to a a tasty meal is one of those items.
00:42:50
If there's a grill I can. Yeah.
00:42:52
You did throw down on the grill.
00:42:54
That's it.
00:42:54
Oh, I meant to bring burritos.
00:42:57
The double stuff all stuffed.
00:42:59
Well, the double stuf Oreos for dessert.
00:43:01
But how is that spelled stuff s t u f I think I'm the Oreos.
00:43:07
You know why that is?
00:43:08
Because I So glad you brought that up.
00:43:11
Yes, I am too.
00:43:13
Oh, why?
00:43:14
There's only one F in them.
00:43:15
I'm guessing because I own the copyrights to the two F's.
00:43:18
No, it's a scandal over there. Yeah.
00:43:21
So there only titillated.
00:43:24
There's only 1.8 or.
00:43:27
Oh, it's not double.
00:43:29
Not double.
00:43:29
Instead of two times, it's 1.8 times oh.
00:43:33
Based on a grade school scientific experiment which proved it
00:43:36
and it's repeatable.
00:43:36
Well, aren't Subway footlong subs like ten inches?
00:43:39
They got sued and corrected it.
00:43:42
They're now a footlong or 11 in three quarter.
00:43:45
Close enough.
00:43:47
Close enough.
00:43:49
But still I think that because they could only do the one eight times bigger
00:43:52
close enough like 22 over seven they only were allowed stuff
00:43:57
couldn't get the full name because they were fully
00:44:00
double stuf,
00:44:03
just like Taco Bell's double stuffed.
00:44:06
Stuffed? Yes, I like that.
00:44:09
Yeah. What is that?
00:44:10
Oh. Oh, just Taco Bell's my guilty pleasure.
00:44:14
B, if you don't think I like their breakfast crunch wraps,
00:44:18
then you don't know how much I love their breakfast crunch wraps.
00:44:23
This episode is brought to you by Taco Bell.
00:44:25
How much pro drives? How much do you love those?
00:44:27
If. Well, if you're not guessing a lot, you're wrong.
00:44:32
What's your favorite kind?
00:44:33
I like the California or the
00:44:36
the anything with bacon in it.
00:44:38
Steak bake.
00:44:40
I didn't even know they had a steak.
00:44:42
Steak.
00:44:45
It's not sponsored by Taco Bell,
00:44:47
but this is everyone's going to stop there now.
00:44:50
Oh, there's Luna time.
00:44:52
Oh, that's. Oh, that is Dong.
00:44:56
Yeah, All four of our listeners.
00:44:58
All right, great.
00:45:00
Get up. Keep it up, and there'll be even less.
00:45:02
I know.
00:45:03
Let's go.
00:45:05
I would, but
00:45:07
I wanted to cover everything today.
00:45:09
That is so ambitious.
00:45:11
Well, with nothing, there was no expectation.
00:45:14
I know.
00:45:14
What do you think the resulting lactation would be if it was everything?
00:45:18
I knocked it out of the park with nothing.
00:45:20
You're not going to get to the park with everything.
00:45:21
It's just going to take longer.
00:45:23
A lot longer.
00:45:26
I start a list of everything.
00:45:28
List of everything?
00:45:29
Yeah.
00:45:31
An all inclusive list of everything.
00:45:33
It will call it the Internet.
00:45:37
I love stuff.
00:45:38
Some of my favorite things are stuff I, I can't even get enough stuff.
00:45:42
I have so much stuff.
00:45:44
I've got a storage issue and yet every week I go shopping for more stuff.
00:45:48
Like, I can't get enough stuff.
00:45:50
I mentioned it last week. Maybe.
00:45:53
Maybe the meaning of life is being a good consumer.
00:45:55
And you told me that was a Bush thing.
00:45:59
It's after the day after 911.
00:46:00
He instead of saying, hug your families, you know, be with a go, go go shopping.
00:46:05
What the fuck?
00:46:09
I am a good consumer, though.
00:46:11
Hey, shout out to my firewood, lady.
00:46:13
I'm such a good customer.
00:46:15
I asked her for a stump to put my Avalon for my forge and her husband
00:46:20
just sent me a a picture message on my phone, a text message saying
00:46:25
I cut three stumps for you.
00:46:27
You can have all three for you charge just for being a good customer.
00:46:32
I think there are benefits to being a good consumer.
00:46:36
I thought that was a really nice story that happened today.
00:46:40
Oh, Anvil, Stone.
00:46:47
Oh, I'm think about stuff, podcast
00:46:52
about stuff
00:47:01
I do like.
00:47:02
I like stuff.
00:47:03
I've got lots of stuff.
00:47:06
I want more stuff.
00:47:08
I can't get enough stuff.
00:47:10
Here's the stuff I'm trying to that
00:47:14
that's a molson Canadian Glass.
00:47:15
I love it.
00:47:18
Utter
00:47:22
the best.
00:47:31
I can't believe I'm standing.
00:47:33
Just sitting here looking at the thing.
00:47:36
Yeah, Yeah.
00:47:37
I'm trying to get those out of your glasses,
00:47:39
but I can't put it up high enough.
00:47:40
Maybe you shouldn't look at it.
00:47:43
Any feedback?
00:47:44
Any feedback from the chat? Sounds sound good.
00:47:47
Let me see. Lighting good?
00:47:49
Yeah. Is
00:47:53
it worse? Draw
00:47:55
will do anything for the smallest amount of money if you want to.
00:47:59
A dance like monkeys, whatever.
00:48:01
Oh, something for Pride Month.
00:48:03
We'll do it.
00:48:04
There's chat.
00:48:06
There is chat.
00:48:11
Barb Bobs and chat.
00:48:15
You call a person with no arms and legs.
00:48:18
A swimmer.
00:48:19
No arms and like a swimmer. Right? Right.
00:48:22
Ruin my joke.
00:48:23
It's not Bob.
00:48:25
It'll be something else.
00:48:25
But if you had the swimmer, it has to be Bob.
00:48:29
Don't add the pool into the joke.
00:48:30
Then it could be something like.
00:48:31
I don't know, splat or thump.
00:48:34
Oh, so we got 30 views.
00:48:38
Maybe you should look at that later.
00:48:42
Up. One of my things, some of my stuff.
00:48:46
Is this phone important?
00:48:48
Correct.
00:48:50
Impossible. Without mathematics stuff.
00:48:54
What what stuff
00:48:55
would you take with you if you could only take
00:48:59
three things?
00:49:00
You can't take anything with you
00:49:03
as to be stuff, right?
00:49:04
You can be like a genie or math or love can't be your phone.
00:49:09
Why can't it be my phone?
00:49:11
Phones don't work when there's no cell tower, so.
00:49:14
Oh, be like saying I'm going to take a runway, but no plane like, right?
00:49:19
Yeah, that says
00:49:21
so. Go ahead.
00:49:22
Take your phones. It's not a wise choice.
00:49:25
There's no way to charge it.
00:49:27
I can't take my car, the whole thing.
00:49:29
No, I take the car door in case it gets on.
00:49:32
I can roll down the window, too.
00:49:35
Uh. Ha ha ha ha.
00:49:38
I don't know.
00:49:40
Most people say bolt, not car, but I would take a bolt. Oh,
00:49:46
okay.
00:49:47
Okay.
00:49:47
One thing on a deserted island. Wouldn't you take a boat?
00:49:50
Yeah, that.
00:49:51
That would be good. Three things.
00:49:53
It doesn't really matter, because the first thing
00:49:54
you're going to take a boat off the island is me.
00:49:58
Yeah, You only need one thing.
00:50:01
But now that you got me, think about desert
00:50:06
Pi day.
00:50:09
A desert island.
00:50:13
A desert island, Of course,
00:50:17
I just make jokes.
00:50:19
But I'm not talking about mathematicians or mathematics.
00:50:22
I do love math.
00:50:23
I'm just tired of talking about it.
00:50:25
So I'm going to move on.
00:50:27
March 2nd is National Stuff Day.
00:50:29
No kidding? National old Stuff Day.
00:50:32
I'm old. I like stuff.
00:50:35
Old stuff.
00:50:36
Old stuff.
00:50:37
That's my cologne.
00:50:42
Okay,
00:50:43
got it.
00:50:45
Thank you.
00:50:45
I'll get there.
00:50:51
It might.
00:50:52
It might seem like I came to this podcast.
00:50:55
I'm 1506 69 Yellow
00:51:04
humor.
00:51:04
Just I had to go.
00:51:07
I was thinking we should do moral combat this time.
00:51:10
Ooh, I think I might have it.
00:51:13
It might be. It's old school.
00:51:14
Might be too new, though Even though it's old. I'll
00:51:19
we've done a fighting game every time I'm old.
00:51:22
Three
00:51:23
random number news is not working out.
00:51:26
That's all right.
00:51:27
We're going to do it, though.
00:51:28
We did 669 in the color yellow. Yeah.
00:51:31
I don't know why The yellow Township police seeks driver and indecent exposure.
00:51:35
Oh, that's my favorite title.
00:51:39
Those are my search terms.
00:51:41
Indecent exposure.
00:51:43
Let's see what happened.
00:51:45
Oh, hey, it's in Michigan.
00:51:47
It's into a township.
00:51:48
Shout out to DeWitt.
00:51:49
I didn't know DeWitt was in Michigan.
00:51:52
I didn't know there was a DeWitt. I know Joyce DeWitt.
00:51:54
Yeah.
00:51:55
I mean, I don't know Joyce of Joyce DeWitt.
00:51:59
You want to read it or you want me to read it?
00:52:01
Oh, DeWitt Township, Michigan Police in to it
00:52:04
Township are looking for the driver
00:52:06
of a GMC Arcadia in connection with an indecent exposure complaint.
00:52:09
We can click on that and read the complaint, but we won't.
00:52:11
Now, according to authorities, the incident happened November
00:52:13
4th near the intersection of Twin Brook Drive and Old U.S. 27.
00:52:18
Police describe the drive
00:52:20
as well-endowed.
00:52:22
At least describe the drive for.
00:52:25
I think they meant driver. Sorry, that's not on me.
00:52:27
Please describe the driver as a white man in his late thirties or early forties.
00:52:31
It's a big difference.
00:52:32
You should be the narrator for this.
00:52:34
He was wearing a neon yellow jacket.
00:52:35
The investigation is ongoing.
00:52:37
Anyone with information is asked to contact
00:52:39
the DeWitt Police Department at 5176696578.
00:52:43
I'm calling now. Don't call now unless you have information.
00:52:46
I'm pretty sure that
00:52:48
they have better things to do.
00:52:49
Please don't.
00:52:51
Anyway,
00:52:52
you did a great job.
00:52:53
That was a good reading.
00:52:55
I really enjoyed that. I learned to read.
00:52:58
I read.
00:52:59
I can read. I'm impressed.
00:53:01
I mean, sometimes I'll trail off in the middle of.
00:53:08
Yeah,
00:53:10
Yeah.
00:53:11
Knock, knock. Who's there?
00:53:14
Interrupting Cow? Moo.
00:53:17
You see, I play part of this.
00:53:20
I can't even play the straight man.
00:53:22
Darn it.
00:53:23
You know, when you improv, you're supposed to say, no.
00:53:26
I should have gotten back to real slow, But you interrupt
00:53:30
ard ard.
00:53:32
That's a hard, hard stuff.
00:53:35
What about hard stuff? You didn't.
00:53:37
Oh, soft stuff. Hard stuff.
00:53:39
There's lots of the round stuff. Medium stuff.
00:53:41
What do you think? Hard stuff. The definition Google brought up.
00:53:44
Boom.
00:53:46
Look, I'm not looking.
00:53:48
He's not looking.
00:53:49
Art stuff.
00:53:50
Hard stuff. It's two words.
00:53:53
Okie plate, Cookie Monster.
00:53:55
Cookie plate, Strong liquor.
00:53:57
Oh, no game.
00:53:58
So let's talk about the hard stuff. Hmm.
00:54:01
I thought there was hard, hard stuff. Yes,
00:54:05
hard math. Ooh,
00:54:08
Did everybody check out the
00:54:11
greatest Irish coffee?
00:54:13
That's the foil method.
00:54:15
Oh, what's the foil method?
00:54:17
The the inside.
00:54:18
Outside of first, outside, inside, last.
00:54:21
Oh, well,
00:54:23
no one else reads math textbooks for fun.
00:54:27
Do they respond in the.
00:54:28
No, but I read manuals for fun, so.
00:54:31
Oh, no kidding. Different kind of weird.
00:54:32
All of my manuals are unopened.
00:54:37
That's a shame.
00:54:38
Yeah, the different kind of weird.
00:54:41
The ten hardest math problems ever solved.
00:54:44
Oh, I like. There's.
00:54:45
There's like, three that are worth $1,000,000 if you want, behind a paywall.
00:54:50
Sorry. Oh, yeah.
00:54:52
They'll never know. We'll never know.
00:54:55
Oh, paywall
00:54:57
ever, ever. No
00:55:01
hard math problems that make your head spin.
00:55:02
I want to see Gary's head spin. Okay. Yeah.
00:55:06
Time to test your brain.
00:55:07
Hit me.
00:55:09
I've got a good brain.
00:55:10
All right, let's bring it up. Here we go. Look at me.
00:55:12
I'm going to get fun.
00:55:13
Smart E I'm not sure if you're aware
00:55:16
seeing what I'm trying to do besides talking choke.
00:55:19
It's the interaction
00:55:20
and the personal friendliness that people want to know they need.
00:55:23
They want to know. Gary Oh, they don't want to know. Brady They do.
00:55:26
I'm here.
00:55:26
But okay, so the rants I I'm sorry I take you for granted.
00:55:31
The rant is the the show.
00:55:33
The main thing. People come the monologue.
00:55:34
They want to hear what you have to say, but they stay for the personable friend.
00:55:38
Good.
00:55:38
Because I bombed I tanked on the the the rant today.
00:55:42
That was bad.
00:55:43
It was bad. I give myself a great f.
00:55:47
Here we go.
00:55:48
If these if these runners travel
00:55:51
the indicated number of spaces in the same amount of time.
00:55:55
Oh, how much faster is the
00:55:58
ice under the tree?
00:56:00
No, I just had to focus that in because I couldn't read.
00:56:02
If each of these runners travels the indicated number of spaces
00:56:04
in the same amount of time at which numbered spot.
00:56:07
Will all of the runners be next to one another?
00:56:10
Oh my goodness.
00:56:12
All these runners travel the indicated number of spaces.
00:56:15
So this one is traveling one space.
00:56:18
Yes. This one is traveling two spaces. Okay.
00:56:20
One is traveling three spaces.
00:56:22
Not you.
00:56:22
The outside guy is traveling
00:56:26
five spaces.
00:56:27
Okay, Why not four? So yeah, I thought it made sense.
00:56:29
It's the lowest common denominator kind of thing.
00:56:32
Oh, so
00:56:37
I could figure this out?
00:56:38
Well, sure you could. Yeah, but it's.
00:56:39
It's supposed to just be able to.
00:56:43
17, 17, 19, 19.
00:56:48
You were so close. Yeah.
00:56:49
Those counts in math, right.
00:56:52
I saw a video where they gave this kid a Rubik's cube to play with,
00:56:57
and then they put up an equation,
00:57:00
and he didn't know algebra.
00:57:03
And then he's playing with this Rubik's
00:57:05
cube, solves it, looks up and says the answer to the the equation.
00:57:09
Nice.
00:57:10
Like if you're distracted enough, your subconscious is smart enough
00:57:13
to figure out the thing you're
00:57:16
I don't know.
00:57:18
It was probably stage I think the submarine builder
00:57:21
you know the O is I think that they did
00:57:24
math close enough Yeah close enough.
00:57:27
They, like, measured the walls. Yeah.
00:57:31
Well, what is it?
00:57:32
First, the hole was in three parts, so it had two seams.
00:57:35
And then there was a viewing like a
00:57:41
let's I call the windshield on the bottom.
00:57:44
Yeah.
00:57:44
And it's the first I'm sorry for any loss, any family, anybody connected.
00:57:49
It's horrific in imagine izing somebody without actually having
00:57:55
an audible the closure I feel horrible for them for that.
00:57:58
I feel horrible for the people inside that that were actually the ones that rushed
00:58:02
and knowing they were about to be crushed as they were running out of oxygen.
00:58:06
CNN just to make everybody feel better, had an opinion piece that said, well,
00:58:09
at the end they definitely had p useful like I don't think they understood
00:58:14
like the 18,000 degree implosion that just happened.
00:58:18
I mean, they if it was fast, it certainly wasn't peaceful.
00:58:22
No, but it was fast
00:58:26
as their bodies merged.
00:58:28
That's just awful.
00:58:29
Yeah, I don't I think that
00:58:31
that's yucky.
00:58:33
I think that it was stupid to trust
00:58:38
it told them, they told them it it's not going to work
00:58:40
in the rest of them because they were old white guys.
00:58:47
Well, the first
00:58:50
there's video
00:58:51
of the rich or the guy that own the company saying,
00:58:55
you know, I went to higher expert all these ex-military, old white guy.
00:59:00
All right. 15 year old. Yeah.
00:59:02
Walk in, hired a bunch of young, inexperienced diversity hires.
00:59:06
Right.
00:59:06
And this is the result if you don't hire people that are the best.
00:59:10
Yeah, I think it would.
00:59:14
I want to say.
00:59:15
Yeah.
00:59:15
The 50 year old fuddy duddy said he didn't want to hire a 50 year old fuddy duddy.
00:59:20
Which number should be on the bottom left stamp?
00:59:23
82, 93, 61, 22, 436.
00:59:27
Bottom left to be for or
00:59:30
what did I say?
00:59:32
Bottom left. Yep.
00:59:33
Oh, it's a trick question, isn't it? Yep.
00:59:37
And it's a one.
00:59:39
Wait, so you're good?
00:59:40
You're good, You're awesome. Because this website.
00:59:42
Yeah. Made a huge mistake. Did anybody catch that?
00:59:45
I didn't catch it.
00:59:46
Which should be on the bottom left stamp.
00:59:48
I'm pretty clear.
00:59:49
Ensure that it's not a trick they meant to type which number
00:59:53
should be in the bottom right stamp.
00:59:54
Yeah, I got it right here.
00:59:56
He was right. 100,000%.
00:59:57
How do you feel about that statement?
01:00:00
A a you have the math wrong.
01:00:02
101%. I'm going to give it 110%.
01:00:06
Hate it.
01:00:06
And I have a smart person to bat for me.
01:00:08
Please. You can
01:00:11
because and that you cannot.
01:00:13
I want somebody that's going to give 100%.
01:00:15
Yeah, I know.
01:00:16
Try to you know, I'm looking for like 9890.
01:00:19
Anything above 80.
01:00:20
Just being reasonable nowadays, to be honest.
01:00:22
Anything above 51 I'm sorry, anything above 50 plus
01:00:26
one of average.
01:00:31
All I Yeah, I do.
01:00:35
One more. Let's do one more.
01:00:36
Your math is out math problems are hard.
01:00:38
Yeah, that gains a sixth.
01:00:41
Here's an energy saver.
01:00:41
Now, keep in mind we can't trust the words we're reading.
01:00:44
Might be wrong.
01:00:45
That Kansas six at Kansas, six.
01:00:48
I didn't even read it yet.
01:00:49
I know the transport company
01:00:50
is greatly reducing the amount of oil it uses, but by how much?
01:00:54
What number should be below the final barrel?
01:00:56
Kansas six
01:00:59
ends a six because wise everything is time.
01:01:02
So, you know, I tried to let my subconscious answer
01:01:04
without my conscious mind and
01:01:07
think
01:01:09
I could go ahead and do the math.
01:01:13
Probably closer to 20,
01:01:15
probably like 14 as a no no high teens.
01:01:19
That's a 16.
01:01:20
I was was ten off.
01:01:21
I said I was off by an an order of magnitude.
01:01:24
I said 14. And you said what you're way off?
01:01:27
Yeah. 16.
01:01:30
What did I say?
01:01:31
We got it on tape so you can look. Yeah.
01:01:33
So it's not going to do any good right now.
01:01:36
What did we say? I don't remember. I just said it.
01:01:38
I want to repeat.
01:01:40
I think I said 14.
01:01:41
Okay, I believe it is 16.
01:01:44
And you think it's 16? You changed your answer. I did
01:01:47
two. Oh, this one requires arithmetic.
01:01:51
Now you spell arithmetic.
01:01:52
Yeah, that's sort of the take the three R's reading.
01:01:55
Writing, arithmetic,
01:01:58
and one more.
01:01:58
But I want to do a cooler.
01:02:00
Oh, this one. That's nice and easy.
01:02:02
Oh, it isn't.
01:02:03
Oh, 21 minus three
01:02:08
is random.
01:02:10
Minus three times 18 plus six equals six.
01:02:14
Uh, it has to be zero.
01:02:16
They have to bring it down to zero.
01:02:17
So yeah. Minus, minus, minus
01:02:20
plus minus, minus plus minus minus
01:02:24
works minus five.
01:02:25
This plus works
01:02:27
O minus plus divided by.
01:02:31
That's a three wrong answer.
01:02:34
Only one minus three is eight is 18 plus 18.
01:02:38
Oh, that's right.
01:02:40
What you need is for some reason thought
01:02:43
and they did it well it's a trick.
01:02:45
Your your brain, your brain went 1819 to go minus minus,
01:02:49
minus minor.
01:02:50
Why not when you can I mean it's okay.
01:02:52
It's not well, it's not eloquent, it's
01:02:55
not simplified, but you can do it right.
01:02:58
I'm sorry we didn't read the directions.
01:03:01
And you know, you're allowed to use two minuses.
01:03:02
I think your mind. My mind.
01:03:04
Anyways, when you went minus minus, I went well, 21 minus three minus is 18. -18.
01:03:10
Why I did that, I have no idea is zero.
01:03:12
So I need a plus six.
01:03:14
But we're on the wrong side and we're stupid. But
01:03:17
e because 18 divided by
01:03:21
Oh, that's correct as well.
01:03:23
One minus three plus 18.
01:03:25
I don't know I Oh so of 18 and 36.
01:03:28
Okay. Yeah.
01:03:28
That's quite, quite accurate.
01:03:31
It would have been
01:03:34
minus one. Yeah.
01:03:35
That's plus works.
01:03:37
All right. -0 Plus it does.
01:03:40
Yeah. That's two. We were right.
01:03:42
You were right.
01:03:43
I'll take credit. I'm sitting with you.
01:03:45
I give you.
01:03:46
Give me more will come instead of Wait. Now.
01:03:49
We're not there yet.
01:03:51
Well, who's your favorite mathematician?
01:03:53
I don't have Belden Cooper.
01:03:55
Oh, if Jedi can be the second
01:03:58
most popular religion in Australia, wasn't it?
01:04:01
I think it's you.
01:04:03
I don't want to say the wrong thing.
01:04:04
We got to cite our facts.
01:04:05
I don't know.
01:04:06
It was Australia, period.
01:04:10
Fact dealer
01:04:12
ID in
01:04:15
a census phenomenon
01:04:18
was Australia. Yeah
01:04:27
that's another
01:04:28
it's it's been you said it's the New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom.
01:04:32
Apparently that's not even true. Oh, what don't we just come to you?
01:04:35
I say this all, I say this all the time.
01:04:37
I say not even true. Cite it all the time.
01:04:40
Well, the internet says it's not true.
01:04:41
You got to believe it
01:04:43
anyway. So. Yes.
01:04:44
So my favorite method, Kelvin Cooper.
01:04:47
My favorite my favorite presidential
01:04:49
quote was, You can't trust everything you read on the Internet.
01:04:52
Abraham Lincoln.
01:04:59
But isn't the Internet
01:05:05
Lincoln?
01:05:06
Wait a minute.
01:05:07
And I used that smart.
01:05:12
It was wicked smart.
01:05:14
It freed zero slaves.
01:05:16
Remember that?
01:05:17
No, that was last week.
01:05:19
Don't remember Emancipation Proclamation.
01:05:22
Oh, right.
01:05:23
I thought you meant we were there, including his own.
01:05:27
My memory's bad, but I don't remember.
01:05:29
My great, great, great, great, great cousin was.
01:05:34
Is Abraham Lincoln.
01:05:37
Oh, yeah.
01:05:38
Give me spin.
01:05:39
You want to be challenged here?
01:05:40
He's been so spin it.
01:05:42
I grabbed about 400 topics.
01:05:45
Some of them are just nouns.
01:05:46
So it may not work out like it may say like down at
01:05:51
my claim is I can rant on any topic.
01:05:53
Gary's claim is he can rant on any topic.
01:05:56
Any topic could be anything like button movement.
01:06:00
Wrong is a topic. What is what defines a rant?
01:06:02
Cause you could say I hate buttons.
01:06:04
Yep. Done. No.
01:06:06
No. There must be delivered.
01:06:08
Oh, you got to convince me. Oh, right.
01:06:10
Oh, you have at least passion about the book.
01:06:12
Yeah.
01:06:12
You got to have some sympathy if you if you phone it in or if you
01:06:17
it has to have some type of funniness, some type of anger.
01:06:21
I want to set up a table in the park.
01:06:23
It says I'm closed minded, changed my mind.
01:06:26
Do it.
01:06:27
I'm going to do it.
01:06:28
Let's do it right now. Anybody in the chat
01:06:31
convince him that he's not closed minded?
01:06:35
I would like to try spin it,
01:06:37
give me a spin or.
01:06:41
Okay, so
01:06:45
open and make.
01:06:46
It's been too long.
01:06:46
I've made it like 25, 40 minutes.
01:06:51
Longest spin ever.
01:06:54
Oh. Oh, Give me something good
01:07:00
Slavic mythology, man.
01:07:02
I can't stand Slavic mythology because I don't know what it is.
01:07:05
And I love mythology, but doggone it, I've never
01:07:08
of single Slavic myth
01:07:11
very give that maybe this
01:07:19
that actually boosts my GPA.
01:07:21
In this particular
01:07:22
you ranted about the ignorance of your ignorance of Slavic mythology.
01:07:26
You didn't actually rant it.
01:07:28
Yeah. Yeah. So that's my biggest complaint.
01:07:30
The worst thing about Slavic mythology is my ignorance.
01:07:33
We can add when I went to my grade school or teenage of that Slavic mythology,
01:07:37
we would give them a pass and Trivial Pursuit
01:07:40
when it was something about like Jack Benny or, you know, English.
01:07:43
Yeah, because they didn't know it.
01:07:45
So I'll give you a pass on that.
01:07:48
I will also remove it from the wheel so it doesn't.
01:07:51
Okay,
01:07:53
give me
01:07:55
a lot of spin.
01:07:56
I forgot this is a segment.
01:07:58
This one is going to be way worse.
01:07:59
I that was about your best choice ever.
01:08:01
The man period's women's power
01:08:06
interjected. It.
01:08:10
I'm not sure what price discrimination is.
01:08:12
Race discrimination means that if you go to Rochester Hills
01:08:15
and buy a car, the car is going to be way more expensive than Hazel Park.
01:08:17
And anybody who's not from around here, I'm sorry if you're from Hazel Park,
01:08:20
I could have picked Detroit, but I tried not to.
01:08:22
Here's the interesting thing about that.
01:08:24
You go to a ritzy neighborhood, you could sell fried cat feces.
01:08:28
And as long as the price tag is high enough, you're going to sell some.
01:08:31
And yeah, definitely. And you say that it's
01:08:35
are the yuppies
01:08:38
Brooklyn turned into.
01:08:39
It's dumb to look for a higher price point.
01:08:42
But you know what?
01:08:43
I've done it thinking that I was getting a better product.
01:08:47
That's the whole Apple line.
01:08:50
Yeah I don't I don't these are not
01:08:52
I it could be like owns bad discrimination.
01:08:56
You know what if, like, a gay person or black person
01:08:59
walked in here that charge them double that could termination.
01:09:03
Oh I don't condone that I would rant about that.
01:09:06
Oh okay women what about.
01:09:08
Oh, pricing people out of necessities
01:09:14
could be forbids.
01:09:15
That is right. Price discrimination.
01:09:18
Well,
01:09:20
you don't want the riffraff
01:09:23
pushing a Lexus down the side of the road, refreshed.
01:09:26
A good example, there's people that pay way too much
01:09:28
just to get the people that can't pay way too much away from them.
01:09:32
Interesting.
01:09:34
I want to.
01:09:39
One more or is that it?
01:09:40
Now? Give me spin
01:09:42
czar.
01:09:42
You. I'm going to try not to interrupt this time,
01:09:44
but if you need I'm going off on this.
01:09:48
Whatever it is.
01:10:02
That was game time.
01:10:07
I have had it with millennials
01:10:09
and I mean, absolutely had it with millennials.
01:10:14
They'll be walking down the sidewalk.
01:10:16
I don't I don't care about texting and driving
01:10:19
as much as walking and not paying attention.
01:10:22
People have fallen off of bridges into holes.
01:10:25
I mean, certainly don't text and drive, but,
01:10:29
oh, looking at someone else's phone over their shoulder, that's even worse.
01:10:33
But we're being conditioned to stare at our phones
01:10:38
and there's something wrong with that.
01:10:48
Oh, you done?
01:10:49
No. You got to be way more than that.
01:10:51
I want to grab the phone out of their hands and just break it.
01:10:55
Yeah,
01:10:56
It's so disrespectful.
01:10:58
Even if even it, no matter what is more important
01:11:01
than actual physical interaction, especially
01:11:04
when it's somebody that you supposedly at least are endeared to.
01:11:08
I want to be a sales clerk at a very busy desk
01:11:12
or cash register and ask for the next person.
01:11:16
Not their phone.
01:11:20
Yeah, you can do that.
01:11:22
I the worst.
01:11:24
But see, if you talk to younger people that same, I don't want to label
01:11:28
anybody or any generation but anybody who's basically younger.
01:11:31
Yeah, they turn it around. Everyone's.
01:11:34
I can't believe that you have the nerve to bother them
01:11:37
while whatever business they're doing on their phone, which is
01:11:41
Yeah,
01:11:43
I've actually looked
01:11:45
at my phone during this podcast.
01:11:48
But yeah, honestly, this has been my best.
01:11:52
I didn't bring my A-game and I'm, I'm, we thrown in the towel. No.
01:11:57
Yeah. Yeah, I am.
01:11:58
I have a pride towel over there. Um,
01:12:02
I'm not very proud of my performance today.
01:12:05
Maybe if I listen back, it'll sound better to me. But
01:12:09
I did not.
01:12:10
I did not live up to my own expectations.
01:12:14
I'm not in my own
01:12:16
or Horseman of Mathematicians
01:12:20
or podcast stations.
01:12:23
Well, give me a Mortal Kombat.
01:12:25
Anyway,
01:12:26
we're going to have to rant a little bit.
01:12:28
Okay, I can rant little bit,
01:12:31
though, in review everything.
01:12:35
Not pretty sure.
01:12:43
Oh, that'll be great.
01:12:44
Yeah.
01:12:48
Um, that's all right.
01:12:55
Uh, my advice, if you want to figure everything out.
01:12:59
Um, Socratic method, certainly learn mathematics.
01:13:03
What's the Socratic method again?
01:13:06
Ask for a description of something of punch holes in it.
01:13:10
See where it falls short of a full description or examples
01:13:14
of where it is not inclusive
01:13:18
or examples where it it it is wrong
01:13:22
and then amend said description and or definition until the point
01:13:28
where you've got a thoroughly exhaustive, robust definition of said term.
01:13:36
Not that everyone
01:13:38
Socratic method works.
01:13:40
Herve I always mention the Ockham's Razor because once you've
01:13:44
the Socratic method to make his robust definition, then apply Ockham's Razor,
01:13:48
turn it back down to efficiency.
01:13:52
So I like both the Socratic method and Occam's razor.
01:13:55
One makes things more robust than one strips them down.
01:13:59
But once you've got all the parts you need, then you can
01:14:03
make it a little more efficient.
01:14:04
And I think they're both useful techniques.
01:14:10
You did find it.
01:14:11
Do you have it? ICE
01:14:18
I also went into Borat Sexy time.
01:14:27
Oh, that's fantastic.
01:14:30
Oh, I like this.
01:14:33
It's Mortal Kombat two.
01:14:34
I think that was that's the one that really took off.
01:14:38
I go much newer
01:14:44
one that was written
01:14:47
excellent
01:14:52
I couldn't
01:14:56
read it has been versus computer.
01:15:00
Um there are people that say we're living
01:15:04
excellent and then there are
01:15:07
sites non um, user characters like
01:15:12
to use in the real world.
01:15:16
That's cuckoo bananas.
01:15:18
Yeah.
01:15:19
That again, there are what do they call those.
01:15:23
Not if you use in real life
01:15:26
like this is um if not non-player users.
01:15:31
You think if the brain was an app, people would actually fucking use it?
01:15:34
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
01:15:37
That what you're saying?
01:15:37
Oh, we're fighting.
01:15:40
Oh, where's my teleport.
01:15:45
So it's a b,
01:15:46
r to L to x and y ion one r, one and L one do not work.
01:15:51
Right. I don't know any of that.
01:15:52
So if you're you. There it is.
01:15:55
You know this game.
01:15:56
I don't know this name, but am I blue?
01:15:58
Oh, yeah.
01:15:59
I'm looking at the upside down screen.
01:16:03
This is not my game.
01:16:03
People.
01:16:05
People. Yeah, there's no people.
01:16:07
Person draw tag.
01:16:13
Have it.
01:16:18
No, I don't know.
01:16:30
How is that?
01:16:31
We suck. Nobody wins.
01:16:33
Oh, it's awful.
01:16:35
I don't know how to play now.
01:16:36
I found my punch button.
01:16:39
Now like
01:16:44
no sound.
01:16:45
They can hear the sound, but we can't.
01:16:47
So we want sound.
01:16:49
I can turn back now.
01:16:50
But no, I want to not suck.
01:16:54
I can't button for that.
01:17:00
Hey. Yeah, but we will.
01:17:03
Oh, jeez.
01:17:06
Out back.
01:17:14
Come here, come here, come here. I'll just sit here.
01:17:15
Come here, Come here. It.
01:17:18
Oh, you can't do what I do.
01:17:22
I can't. I've got the same exact things.
01:17:24
Oh, is that your character?
01:17:34
Yeah.
01:17:37
That wasn't a very exciting finishing move.
01:17:39
No, it was not.
01:17:42
Gary wins.
01:17:43
That's never happened before.
01:17:45
I feel like I lost one every every every time.
01:17:49
Every other segment of this. This podcast.
01:17:51
This is my worst ever.
01:17:52
I'm sorry.
01:17:53
I'm bringing it with balls, keeping score.
01:17:55
It's something I do, but it is good. One.
01:18:00
You, Gary, too.
01:18:03
We've played it four times. Three times?
01:18:05
I don't think the four. I don't.
01:18:07
Maybe it was four times.
01:18:08
It was streetfighter.
01:18:09
It was double Dragon and Mortal Kombat.
01:18:12
That was it.
01:18:14
And it's
01:18:16
it's two one Brady.
01:18:19
It's recorded.
01:18:24
Give any words of wisdom.
01:18:27
Yeah.
01:18:28
Always show up unprepared.
01:18:33
It doesn't always go great.
01:18:36
But you find out your strengths.
01:18:38
You have a rant of wisdom.
01:18:41
Think you just did a I just wrong word.
01:18:43
So wise of word. Them.
01:18:48
But I don't want to end.
01:18:49
You know what we've got to do some I have I've been any
01:18:52
in song on
01:18:56
I that one I am the very model of a modern major general.
01:19:00
I don't know the rest of the words.
01:19:03
All right.
01:19:05
I started farting heartily at a retarded garden party.
01:19:07
I said I'm sorry, but they'd hardly pardon me.
01:19:13
That's my own original material.
01:19:16
I guess you couldn't tell.
01:19:17
Really
01:19:19
warm up exercise.
01:19:21
I should warm up that.
01:19:23
That might be the answer.
01:19:24
Um, well, no, no, this is.
01:19:26
This is my worst yet.
01:19:28
I'll.
01:19:29
I'll get better.
01:19:32
Bugs are my favorite.
01:19:33
So we'll. We'll.
01:19:34
We'll hit balls.
01:19:35
I'll hit the balls strong next week.
01:19:38
He's speaking completely for himself.
01:19:41
The production in my part may never get any better.
01:19:44
If you're happy and satisfied with that, tune in next week.
01:19:47
We'll be here Monday, 6:00.
01:19:48
I would like to thank Bauman again.
01:19:51
Theme song.
01:19:52
Yeah, as above.
01:19:54
So below.
01:19:57
But now do the word of the day.
01:19:59
That needs to be one word.
01:20:01
We have a possum.
01:20:03
Moose is half moose, half hippopotamus.
01:20:07
If a part of moose,
01:20:10
a lot of pot of moose,
01:20:12
half flat, eponymous half moose of pocalypse
01:20:21
above so below
01:28:33
zero.
01:28:37
We didn't want to be part of it.
01:28:41
Movement
01:28:42
that exposes the lies that we're being told.
01:28:44
We are being told lies.
01:28:47
The NASA's not being
01:28:49
totally forthcoming with their information.
01:28:52
If you were to look at
01:28:54
a picture of the surface of the moon
01:28:57
and there's a little part that's fuzzed out,
01:29:01
that it's fuzzed out for a reason,
01:29:03
we're not supposed to know about some structures on the moon,
01:29:07
but but so the flat-earthers have a reason, a purpose.
01:29:11
They're on to something, but
01:29:15
they're off.
01:29:15
They're on to something. But they're way.
01:29:17
The dumbest thing I've heard was we're spending at 600 miles per hour.
01:29:22
Do you feel that you don't feel
01:29:25
and motion I say me, I say really back to them.
01:29:28
Do you feel like you're going 60 miles an hour when you're sitting in a car?
01:29:30
It's like there's an equilibrium going on.
01:29:33
Exactly.
01:29:33
You you you can sense changes in momentum of what you did say.
01:29:38
So I'm glad that this is giving them purpose. You can see it.
01:29:41
They don't want to.
01:29:42
Even if somebody says, wait a minute,
01:29:45
they may realize that they may be not on to the right.
01:29:48
They still don't want to lose that purpose.
01:29:49
So they won't like, oh, it's like a but it is absolutely stupid.
01:29:53
Flat Earth is stupid.
01:29:54
This is just a bit of a tease. What?
01:29:58
But next
01:29:58
week's rant about balls is going to be demonstrably false.
01:30:01
You can take a 15 minute walk and see that all of your surroundings have changed.
01:30:06
You can't see any of the mountains from here, the north and the south hemispheres.
01:30:10
The sky is different.
01:30:12
And then, yeah, how come companies work,
01:30:15
how the weather changes mean all this is explained with
01:30:20
you can bounce a mirror, you can bounce a laser off a mirror
01:30:22
on the moon and get its distance.
01:30:25
This is not a teaser for next week.
01:30:27
This is what would you send through the bottleneck?
01:30:31
I keep talking about the cataclysmic
01:30:33
things and you need to send information through the bottleneck.
01:30:36
What would you want the the next iteration of civilization to know?
01:30:42
And I'm thinking an atomic theory like like if we could just tell them
01:30:46
that the chemistry of all matter is little tiny atoms.
01:30:50
Did you know that a grain of sand has in the quintillion of atoms
01:30:54
more than there are stars in the visible universe?
01:30:58
I would have assumed that, but I didn't know it.
01:31:00
Quintillion I would give them
01:31:03
rotating.
01:31:05
Oh, agriculture. Oh, I love them.
01:31:07
Give them that and they'll eventually find the space stuff.
01:31:10
You know, I'm a little bit.
01:31:12
Right, right.
01:31:13
Oh, yeah yeah. No set of language or mathematics.
