I wasn't big on the podcast when it first came out for whatever reason, but now that I have been used to other podcasts and it's part of my routine to listen to them (Trash Taste, Waveform, etc.) this one comes really welcome! I love the little tangents full of pretty interesting info and y'all dynamics are great to keep a convo going!
I’m really glad you guys talked about the Europa mission launch to explore the moon. That is a way bigger deal than most people are thinking it is. We might have to wait another seven years before we see what it gives us but I think once we get those first images it’s going to be awesome. A part of me was really hoping that they would launch something that would land on the moon but I’ll take what they’re doing.
Oh thank God for you fascination about Phones and touchscreens and how magical it is. I think about it more that I would like to all the time but I was unable to find anybody talking about it even on Reddit 😭
The booster landing was so horizontal cause they were trying to avoid hitting the tower till the last moment. If something went wrong, they could still avoid the tower no matter what. Was pretty bonkers.
I'm always late to these long form discussions, but I will never unsubscribe lol. Whatever the algorithm it's been pointing towards the right direction haha. I witness, bloodbag!!! 🤪🤙
49:06 the first time I solved a set of equations by doing apparently unrelated operations on a table to bring the it into reduced row echelon form, I knew it was magic
That's crazy! I literally had the exact same experience as Wren with the chopstick landing of the Starship booster by SpaceX. I woke up, not knowing what was going on. I turned on my PC to start working and it opened on TH-cam and I saw the live stream. I literally clicked on it and watched right as it happened. It was so surreal with the timing I didn't believe it at first.
Eventually, nanotechnology will be so advanced that they will be able to break down any material into it's substituent parts (molecules or atoms), store those atoms in pure form, and then also build anything at any time out of those molecules or atoms. It would essentially be like star trek replicators. Just high speed 3d printing with atoms and molecules. This can potentially cause a post scarcity society, as waste can be turned into food or anything else.
That's an interesting thought, but it sounds a bit sci fi. The binding energy for heavy elements means that to break them down it releases a huge amount of energy - that's how nuclear power works. It also releases a lot of radiation, so these nanobots would need to be able to survive those conditions. Then there's atoms with low binding energy, which take a huge amount of energy to split. And this is even after you begin breaking down molecules into said atoms. I doubt humanity would ever coexist with this level of tech. Either we wipe ourselves out, this kind of nano tech does, or we aren't considered human.
The context for the Europa quote is that it's from the sequel to 2001: a Space Odyssey. In that story, Jupiter becomes a sun due to the intervention of the Black Monolith. The Monolith also seems to have triggered the evolution of life on Europa. The message from the Monolith is a warming that the new life on Europa is protected.
The chopsticks also moved towards the booster as the rocket was nearing. You should check out other views pretty crazy stuff. They’d also be saving a few million without using the legs.
When you work as a server in a restaurant, and you tip out based on your sales (to support staff, the kitchen, your managers/owner [which is technically illegal but is never enforced or prevented]) and for whatever reason the guest either forgets or refuses to tip, you are literally paying to work. Just remember that if you "don't believe in tipping".
There is a theory that the first potentially immortal human has already been born based on the technological and medical advances society has developed. The downside is that this planet is becoming less sustainable due to shifts in climate and depletion of natural resources, consumption and that which is overall relevant to the Doomsday Clock. As much as I can appreciate the ability for AI to become conscious and intelligent beings alongside humans, I am very interested in how we will evolve to a point where our consciousness can be transferred into an artificial body. Hopefully we will see a change in our world culture and become a more intelligent and unified species so that we can provide our future generations with a healthier and safer planet.
Yeah, glue traps are definitely not good for a multitude of reasons. Not only do the animals suffer when they die and not just through starvation and dehydration. They are also indiscriminate in what they catch. So anything that comes by to eat what died or happens on it by accident also gets caught and or gets glue all over them.
The AI talk reminds me of the old Door Monster skit about Ikea AI: "DYI AI". Just the idea an AI just does not care about existing and self destructs immediately upon coming into existence.
Sticky traps should be banned nationwide, not only because you kill animals via starvation or dehydration, but because you have no control over what ends up caught in those sticky traps. You can potentially end up having endangered snakes or lizards or something else caught in those traps. I know someone who had a kitten die while they were on vacation because it got caught up in a sticky trap and died. Use normal high strength plastic snap traps, they are re-usable as well.
I mean... They left a kitten alone while they went on vacation. Traps or no traps, that's asking for a tragedy. The point of glue traps is you're meant to check them. If you don't check a no-kill trap, then you're starving the animal to death anyway. Irresponsible people aren't a reason to ban them.
The pirate software advice is long term advice. Short term may “hurt” for a bit, but the big deal is consistency Not that I can speak much, never once gotten a notification for a live steam or video drop, regardless of what my settings are for
2:27 You don't pull the tail, you push down on the neck to dislocate the skull bone from the first cervical vertebra. That's the fastest and most humane way to kill mice. You generally fixate the mouse by the neck with the one hand and tail with the other hand is the most common. Pulling the tail can break the spine halfway which causes intense pain. Pulling the tail gently will make sure you get the first vertebral by stretching the spine a little bit.
@@jasonshere There are multiple ways but cervical dislocation is the quickest, cheapest and least painful way. Just pulling at a mouse's tail is straight up torture and not a humane method, especially in laboratories.
Galileo was Jupiter's orbit 7 years, Juno still is after three years. Wren is like blue cat creature from Adventure Time, he has approximate knowledge of many things...
Unless engineers find a way to boost computation on less hardware? Like the artificial brain processor being worked on in Australia. The size of a human brain, with the processors/server power of factories
The tele-operation work from home thing was the first thing I thought of when I saw the Tesla event. And that is definitely going to be a thing for a few years. But Niko is totally wrong about the time frame to move to AI controlling the robot. For many simple tasks Tesla is actually less than a year away, and more complex tasks could be within two or three years. But the work from home remote labor will be a thing that happens for a few years and helps train the AI for these tasks.
Maybe maybe not, idk if it is just youtube, but this comment is waay to certain about future. It is unclear how much current iteration on neural network scale. It is powerfull tech and I am sure a lot of ppl will word prediction part of the llm to bridge things together, but generally there ain't clean atm way to bridge things together fo full authonomy. You can get a lot more automated through, for sure
It's what I figured will end up being the solution that replaces "self-driving" cars. Bit of a "monkey's paw" wish grant, though. "Good news, your job isn't being taken by A.I. The bad news is it's being outsourced." (depending on how the latency ends up being of the tele-operation tech)
Ah, the classic elon "two years away" has rubbed off on you eh. The robotics of replicating human dexterity hasn't even been solved yet. We can automate some repetitive tasks but we don't need humanoid robots for that. For what Niko is talking about - having an AI clean or look after your kids, and do a good job of it, is a long way off. The most advanced robots that Boston dynamics sell, who have had a headstart on Tesla's robotics team by over 2 decades now make is a quadraped which can navigate and open doors, not much more. And it costs tens of thousands of dollars.
27:30 THIS! . I hate that people can't put aside Elon's politics, or other crazy shit, and see just how amazing the MAN himself is (and what he's done for America ***we wouldn't have a way to send Americans into space***)
ALL OF THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS....... is 2010, not 2001. Self-driving is actually far, far more complex than housekeeping. Which gets even more complex with higher speeds. With housekeeping you are in complete control and likewise have the opportunity to correct a behavior in the moment. Unlike self driving where if the car runs over a person that's it damage done no time to correct it and the moment has passed. ANd the service industry is already moving towards full automation. Outback Steakhouse now uses the same grills that McDonnalds uses. Put the meat on, select the cut and degree of doneness with a touch screen hit a big button. On a plate in about 4 minutes ready to eat in 6. It's why I left the industry as the pandemic hit.
I feel like automating the amount by which you cook a pre-cut and portioned piece of generic fast food meat is something we probably could've done in the 80's with a couple big chunky buttons and a set of timers, I dunno if that's a useful sort of analog for the job of the person still which is to perform all of the intermediary functions between these different machines that are often from a bunch of different companies
They're different engineering problems but I do believe that housekeeping to the standard of a human is a very difficult problem. Don't underestimate how much dexterity and adaptability you use in tasks like that just because it's subconscious. Our arms are more capable in terms of responding to stimuli and performing delicate tasks at a human scale than anything we've built.
Really relate to Wren and his Elon Musk fan to "I'm borderline, if not explicitly, embarrassed i used to be a fan of that guy because of what he's become" trajectory because i went on the exact same journey lol.
um, this is kind of an 'um actually' but it's more of a fun fact 34:00 space isn't empty! heat transfer IS possible as vacuums aren't completely empty but it's just very very slow. There is the problem that if you are in a vacuum and unprotected by something like our star, the rare particles/atoms that DO hit you are probably going VERY fast and are likely very hot. But yes he's correct that you don't freeze in space. You're more likely to explode due to the pressure in your body and the lack of pressure outside. Not an expert here, just an ex-physicist
I know Musk is a hard topic to broach, but his companies do some of the most amazing things. And its not easy to talk about one without the other. But I wanted to say I really enjoyed this episode because his companies do things I wish more people talked about. They are actually changing to world (and whats out of it).
Well when it comes to the conspiracy theory part about how TikTok's algorithm works in China, it's wrong but for a different reason than the Crew thought. TikTok is outright banned in China. (yes, it's parent company is the Chinese company ByteDance, laundered through Singapore, yet it is banned.) However, they have a much more censorable version. That is the one that China's citizens are using. (same with TH-cam, Facebook, Twitter/X, WeChat, and so on) It's part of their "Great Firewall" setup. (also rely on language barrier to hide just how terribly their nationalism-stoked citizens tend to react to certain pieces of world news)
Yep, and math that has existed since at least the 1950's, haha. Before chatgpt AI was already used everywhere, but now there are some customer facing products that use generative ai, it's being hyped as the savior or the destroyer of earth.
We could be at the point where the first immortal humans have been born - we kinda know how to stop aging, it's just up to the bio-engineers to put it into treatments that we can use, Telomeres, NADH chain and senescent cell clean up, we are working on treatments for maintaining these and should get them without current life times Also population issue is not Gona be a thing as Jordan suggested in my opinion anyway, we are already seeing population growth issues right now - also if you're immortal the ideas on having a child will change completely - there's that black mirror episode on it
Everyone should see what 1X robot; their approach to robotics is a lot more mature than adapting the 100 year old industrial robotics in a humanoid shape
27:10 Elon knows physics and as long as it is physically possible and makes sense, he pushes the idea it even if no one did it before. When it comes to SpaceX and Tesla he sometimes said: "Physics is the law everything else is a recommendation". I don't agree with everything he says but also there are a lot of uncut over 1 hour interviews about rockets, physics and in general his views for everyone to see online :)
I’m writing a series of short stories that cover the concept of medically induced “eternal life”. And, in turn the societal repercussions of that being implemented as both a choice and non-choice. I’m mainly focused on effects on an individual and a collective per story. Hope to be able to publish them to a website soon. Very interesting to research the topic as well comment below if you’d like any of the resources I have found.
24:16 Do any of his biographies go over how he is an absent father to like 12 or 13 children? And how his daughter changed her last name so as not to be associated with him anymore and called him out for making up memories of her when talking about her being trans? Or how he didn't found tesla but just bought the company from two engineers and created a position at the company named "founder" to be known as a founder of Tesla even though it's not the case? edit: oh I forgot to bring up all of the sexual assault allegations against him, anti union stuff and racism at his factories...
1:04:50 This isn't true at all. People like Alex Jones had millions of subscribers, whether you like him or not. If youtube was just "serving the audience what it liked" he would now have many millions more by now. Instead TH-cam took a stance and changed what the audience can and can't see by banning him and hundreds of other people. Then you have the plethora of other rules which allowed creators must abide by, rules on speech, violence, gore, etc. Then there are the news channels which can show violent videos and the individual creators who use their footage get demonetized for being too violent. So youtube heavily curates what kind of videos youtubers can make and which videos are popular with their ToS and algorithm.
Tesla will outsource to India, and people with these Robots will be yelling "get operator!" after the thing drops their dishes enough time to switch to a "cheaper" human controlled remote labor.* I hate the future. *got to the part where you said exactly that - absolutely.
When I was a teenager, me and my friend filmed a short movie on mini-DV tape in the basement of my apartment building, it had a lot of long corridors. We called the movie "Korridoren", Swedish for "The Corridor" and it had some yank CGI and all that but I find it funny that it is kinda the spirit of what Corridor Digital is both in name and field. I'm always reminded of those times when Niko is talking about the early days with him and Sam. Sadly my movie is probably lost media, except the raw footage which I still have on the original DV-tape.
Im kinda in love with you guys Im an Inde Game Designer... and I really want to hang out with you and work with you guys a lot. I made the Robot Dragon Eagle on steam.
The way Wren talks about his feelings towards Elon and how they’ve changed over time is EXACTLY how so many people feel and I wish it wouldn’t be like that….
That's because you get your information through the media. It's easy to hate someone, it's hard to learn who they are. Instead of being like "I hate Elon because *insert reason*". Try to learn what, why or if Elon *insert reason* happened. Once you start applying this practice to the things and people you are taught to hate through the media, you start to see the virtue signalers that just want to get a hit of the hate acknowledgement pipe and don't really care if they are right or wrong.
@@Zirp- Don't pretend that people like you were not hating on Elon for being an EV maker that went by climate change predictions while was in California.
@@VaeldargWhat? People like me? Did Tesla/Elon deny climate change after leaving California? I feel like he has been very consistent over the years that climate change is an experiment we would rather not fuck around and find out with, and instead we should just go the route of transitioning to clean renewable energy as best we can without ruining our quality of life short term. I agree with him.

Scissors to the neck is crazy 😭
I love Wrens tangents! Learn something interesting every time 🤓
I dunno. He’s wearing his TDS on his sleeve and it’s clearly impacted his ability to think.
I freaking love Wren's mind!

I turned on my PC to start working and it opened on TH-cam and I saw the live stream. I literally clicked on it and watched right as it happened. It was so surreal with the timing I didn't believe it at first.
I heavily recommend Eric Berger's books on SpaceX as well. He's covered part of the history of SpaceX so far in his two books.

We could be at the point where the first immortal humans have been born - we kinda know how to stop aging, it's just up to the bio-engineers to put it into treatments that we can use,
Telomeres, NADH chain and senescent cell clean up, we are working on treatments for maintaining these and should get them without current life times
Also population issue is not Gona be a thing as Jordan suggested in my opinion anyway, we are already seeing population growth issues right now - also if you're immortal the ideas on having a child will change completely - there's that black mirror episode on it
Everyone should see what 1X robot; their approach to robotics is a lot more mature than adapting the 100 year old industrial robotics in a humanoid shape
Hello there again :D
A selfdriving car doesn't need to be good, it just needs to be better than the avg person... and that is easy
27:10 Elon knows physics and as long as it is physically possible and makes sense, he pushes the idea it even if no one did it before. When it comes to SpaceX and Tesla he sometimes said: "Physics is the law everything else is a recommendation".
I don't agree with everything he says but also there are a lot of uncut over 1 hour interviews about rockets, physics and in general his views for everyone to see online :)
Still haven't been served a short yet.
Ideas that keep my brain up at night. My sleep paralysis demon is going to love them.
Please do a parody of Ender’s Chores 😂
Okay idk how you get ad revenue for this, but you guys should make a lethal mouse trap that is triggered by AI motion detecting! Humane and effective
Man I hate how gross I start to feel after seeing a mouse or roach. I feel like I need to clean up but they always come back
Wren Degrasse Tyson came out in this Podcast XD
finally the status quo cool futurology stuff I wanna hear that's not Jreg or uber smart scientists
I’m writing a series of short stories that cover the concept of medically induced “eternal life”. And, in turn the societal repercussions of that being implemented as both a choice and non-choice. I’m mainly focused on effects on an individual and a collective per story. Hope to be able to publish them to a website soon. Very interesting to research the topic as well comment below if you’d like any of the resources I have found.
Unless people upload consciousness, and their body dies, then they live in a virtual heaven
Gotta ask. Why does Christian get his own camera? I mean, if he speaks show his angle but if not there’s no reason it should be switching to him? 🤔
🤷
24:16 Do any of his biographies go over how he is an absent father to like 12 or 13 children? And how his daughter changed her last name so as not to be associated with him anymore and called him out for making up memories of her when talking about her being trans? Or how he didn't found tesla but just bought the company from two engineers and created a position at the company named "founder" to be known as a founder of Tesla even though it's not the case?
edit: oh I forgot to bring up all of the sexual assault allegations against him, anti union stuff and racism at his factories...
1:04:50 This isn't true at all. People like Alex Jones had millions of subscribers, whether you like him or not. If youtube was just "serving the audience what it liked" he would now have many millions more by now. Instead TH-cam took a stance and changed what the audience can and can't see by banning him and hundreds of other people. Then you have the plethora of other rules which allowed creators must abide by, rules on speech, violence, gore, etc. Then there are the news channels which can show violent videos and the individual creators who use their footage get demonetized for being too violent. So youtube heavily curates what kind of videos youtubers can make and which videos are popular with their ToS and algorithm.
TIL Nico wears toe-socks amd I am SHOOK
WTF is Wren talking about Full Self Driving???
FSD has yet to exist lol
The potential savings by using low paid migrant workers is offset by the cost of the actual robots.
Why use foreign labour when you have prisoners in the US?
Tesla will outsource to India, and people with these Robots will be yelling "get operator!" after the thing drops their dishes enough time to switch to a "cheaper" human controlled remote labor.*
I hate the future.
*got to the part where you said exactly that - absolutely.
When I was a teenager, me and my friend filmed a short movie on mini-DV tape in the basement of my apartment building, it had a lot of long corridors. We called the movie "Korridoren", Swedish for "The Corridor" and it had some yank CGI and all that but I find it funny that it is kinda the spirit of what Corridor Digital is both in name and field. I'm always reminded of those times when Niko is talking about the early days with him and Sam. Sadly my movie is probably lost media, except the raw footage which I still have on the original DV-tape.
Im kinda in love with you guys Im an Inde Game Designer... and I really want to hang out with you and work with you guys a lot. I made the Robot Dragon Eagle on steam.
The way Wren talks about his feelings towards Elon and how they’ve changed over time is EXACTLY how so many people feel and I wish it wouldn’t be like that….
That's because you get your information through the media.
It's easy to hate someone, it's hard to learn who they are.
Instead of being like "I hate Elon because *insert reason*".
Try to learn what, why or if Elon *insert reason* happened.
Once you start applying this practice to the things and people you are taught to hate through the media, you start to see the virtue signalers that just want to get a hit of the hate acknowledgement pipe and don't really care if they are right or wrong.
@@Zirp- ehh Elon proves how weird he is via twitter posts and his actions, not through the media
@@Zirp- Don't pretend that people like you were not hating on Elon for being an EV maker that went by climate change predictions while was in California.
@@AfroNinja720 What a vague reason to hate someone. You do you.
@@VaeldargWhat? People like me? Did Tesla/Elon deny climate change after leaving California?
I feel like he has been very consistent over the years that climate change is an experiment we would rather not fuck around and find out with, and instead we should just go the route of transitioning to clean renewable energy as best we can without ruining our quality of life short term. I agree with him.
