Imagine going to university for 10 years across two different universities on either side of the country, getting a BS of computer science with Honors and a PhD in computer science with a dual major in ecology and evoluntionary biology, and then using all that knowledge and expertise to create an algorithm for _Where's Waldo?_ books. Dude is living life like a main character.
Humans are notoriously bad at being random. This dude wrote an algorithm stratergy that can be applied to AI. To help police and special forces determin in a crowd where a terrorist most likely entering, going and exiting and so on. That's the real cool part.
I've got a slightly innovative hack I used to use when I was a kid. Take two sheets of paper place one on top of the page and one on the bottom with a bit of space in between to see that section of the page. Move both pages down little by little while scanning and with much less "visual noise" in the way you'll find Waldo consistently faster.
I was never that great at finding Waldo but I still loved these books just to look at the pictures. There was always funny little things going on in the background with all the random characters.
a lot of the books didn't just task the reader with finding Waldo, but also his dog and the wandering wizard, among other things. The real fun of the books is looking at all the art
I had a scavenger hunt book for the X-men when I was a kid. In each scene you had a list of certain things to find. Some of them were closer to riddles too I think like "find out who stole the whatever" and you'd spend a good length of time on every page trying to find all of the items and seeing all of the Easter eggs in the art. It was amazing as a kid.
I think Waldo is currently moving through the multiverse, trying to find the fastest way into our reality so he can hunt down everyone who has ever looked for him.
"Well done, detective. It seems you've gotten an ally with you, who is this fellow acquaintance of yours?" "Hey Vsauce! Micheal here. Where can you run, Waldo?"
You’d be an excellent professor of history and/or science. I’d love to see more on the Victorian and Edwardian eras- art, mummy tastings, toxic makeup, you could just go nuts.
Not too long ago, my brother stayed up until 1:00 AM searching for Waldo and flipping through the pages in one of those books. I bet if he had known this way of doing it, he would not have lost so much sleep. Thank you, Michael. Now I can tell him all about this.
Joke's on you, Waldo has ALWAYS known where you are. As soon as you open the book, he sees you, and he's watching you. THE WHOLE TIME. THERE IS NO ESCAPE.
I don't think people really understand the sheer magnitude of of information the human brain is capable of processing. It's not just the massive quantity of sensory information we're receiving on a _constant_ basis, but the fact that it is instantly comparing and correlating it with information we have already accumulated in order to contextualize it for understanding. Then add our conscious thought processes to the mix, while handling our involuntary biological functions... in real time.
All we need is a Blair Witch style video of Michael in a Waldo outfit, standing in a dark forest, when the camera pans to him he states "you found me.." then runs towards the camera.
Michael’s camera didn’t fall, Waldo finally found him.

The research and strategies to actually find Waldo is mind-blowing. I mean it’s a childrens book and we have invested our time into this!
Knowing an efficient way to do this can be used for more important things, Usually to create a method doing something fun can help.
Isn't it just awesome when the vsauce beat drops?
That speaks more to how powerful math is. The exact same approach can be applied to millions of other problems.
it helps with other stuff. there is knot theory and it helps with winding and unwinding DNA

The risk of Waldo finding you is low, but never zero.
He thinks, but cannot know for certain, that he's never been found by Waldo.
or he has? *vsauce soundtrack
yet...
We know of people who have found Waldo, but we don't know of anyone alive who have been found by him.... maybe there's a reason.
