I love the realization of "we use stuff but dont know how it works" because thats a fundamental part of computer science. I use code all the time that I dont understand at all.
No, you could not be more wrong if you worked at it. The field of computer science is very specifically concerned with the nature of computation and how it works. Gödel undecidability is a good example of this exercise. That you "use code all the time" doesn't require that you have any grasp of computational linguistics. When we design a programming language, there may be a technological motivation to produces the kind of product that you might use, say, for writing simulations. That's the motivation, properly, of SOFTWARE ENGINEERING. The motivation in COMPUTER SCIENCE to design a programming language is very different. We're looking to establish the limits of expressive power, for example at a fundamental level which grammars are sufficient for which classes of computation, for example parallelization or theorem proving or quantum computing. The goal is not to dream up mechanisms which we don't understand but to proceed through mathematical formalism a treatment of the computation that we do understand. The one notable exception - and indeed the grounds for longstanding objection by computer science formalists - is neural networks. As with genetic algorithms but much more dramatically, we understand the mechanism but not what it's doing. That's a qualitative departure from traditional forms of computation, and it's not even clear that it can be called computer science.

This guy goes from "so I saw a spider yesterday" to "everyone will die and it won't matter because the universe is infinite and there are infinite universes so nothing matters" in 10 minutes
Exurb1a is always amazing, but I swear he has been on fire lately: "There is nothing normal about reality. It's just an insane jigsaw puzzle, devised by a madman that has persisted long enough for us to accept as routine." Keep up the good work, you are indeed inspiring.

Fun story about anesthetics. I had a hernia surgery a few months ago and obviously, I was put under. Surgery went fine, no problems. I come home from hospital and notice that every time I start to fall asleep, something jolts me awake. Not 'oh I'm falling', more 'oh no you don't, wake the fuck up'. This happened less frequently as nights went on and after a week or three, it never happened again. I theorise that it was a part of me that wasn't put under, a sub-subconsciousness, fearing the consciousness and subconsciousness would both go under like during the surgery and wake 'me' up to prevent it. Eventually 'it' realised it won't happen again and let 'me' sleep peacefully. So I can totally see how we have no idea how anesthetics work. Who knows what we are and are not 'knocking out'? What if that sub-subconsciousness is awake during it in some sense and it's terrified? I wonder if others have the same experience. I can't find it. But then I can also hear my subconsciousness processing things in the background of my mind (different from thinking), like a dream without the time dilation, so maybe I'm just more.... Likely to experience things like that? Who knows. Fun stuff to think about while high too.
I had something similar happen after having my gallbladder removed. When I would try going to sleep and was right at that point where you go from being awake to asleep, my body would almost jolt itself awake. I would wake up almost panicking with this nagging feeling that I just stopped myself from never waking up again.
@@williethekid5656maybe because anesthesia does in fact, contrary to what OP’s comment says, completely “shut” you down, and you’ve managed to trick the brain that it died. The human brain is fascinating in the way that even if it knows it’s being tricked, or if even it knows the truth behind something, it still falls for it.
@@MdAkmolMasud I cannot recall the precise moment I got "knocked out". But I have some flashes of waking up. Overall it felt like the best sleep ever. When they woke me up and got me to a separate room, I slept for hours, getting up only to answer some questions.
@@fubumaruda2128 This was therapeutic. I always had a fear of experiencing all the pain of an operation while not being able to open my eyes or move my body, but thankfully you said you didn’t remember much, so now I can rest easy.
Every time day I inch towards these questions with my study more and more. I'm really interested by this and looking forward to the future where I might try to unravel said mysteries
Twistt As the video has pointed out, we don’t know a huge amount of the universe or why anything is here. There may be some greater underlying meaning to everything that our puny simian brains can not possibly hope to comprehend and there is a greater intelligence to the universe as a whole. This meaning isn’t abundantly clear to us, but it may very well be there. Nevertheless, go live your life and do what makes you happy, and maybe we’ll have the answer one day.
This actually makes me feel relaxed not sure why. I makes believe there is some sort of order behind all the chaos we just don’t fully understand what it is yet. :)
Coming back to this video a few years later, I'm realizing how much it has actually changed how I think about the world. The fact that we still don't understand...anything we do. We merely try things, observe, and repeat things that worked well and avoid things that didn't. I'm doubtful that will change in my lifetime, but man the world will work differently when we do get there.
Fun fact: It legit took us 50 years just to figure out how a laundry machine legit cleans clothes. It is now, might I add, an actively studied field of science.
NO WAY! thats insane. Could you imagine using your very expensive education, your life, just considering and pondering laundry?? Thats something that went wrong in your childhood.

“This is rather as if you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in - an interesting hole I find myself in - fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise.

Yea that worked so well with us, that's why were here watching this video, don't do that, tell them we can not possibly know and the fact we exist at all is a miracle
I love the way you present these videos, whenever I write a presentation where the goal is to leave a lasting impact on the audience I always feel like part of me goes “how would Exurb1a word this?” Because the way you reel us in and then send our minds spinning by the end of the video is fantastic
When exurbia was talking about anasthaesia, it reminded me of when I was trying to make a magic system for my fantasy novel that was a bit closer to science but then I hit a dead end with the sub atomic particles [quarks up and down stuff]. I was trying to search up what these quark do what they do and what makes them do that, turns out nobody knows why, we just know that it does that but we dont know why.
Idk if we'll ever get an answer to the final "Why?" question, but as long as we live, we will always keep searching for the answers to the endless stream of "How?"
I've never been more moved by the desperate attempts we mere humans make to try to tie down physics to an understanding constant idea or equation. Gotta love the uncertainty of being.

You are the only person I have found in TH-cam who understands the Nuinces of Being Us Not some "sunshine" shit . Thankyou Thankyou yo. Because of you iam still here no matter what your video make me Less Depressed than a day before..
So here are the basic phases. Phase 1: "Have you ever asked yourself a question... ?" Phase 2: "This is all a complete mess and no one knows what they're doing." Phase 3: "The very fact that you can blink is a statistical miracle." Phase 4: *british screeching intensifies* In short, Exurbia is the best content-creator currently on TH-cam.
The mystery at the bottom of physics is "Why is there physics?" or more accurately "why does anything exist? why does it follow rules? And why these rules?" Maybe humanity will discovery these answers, maybe it won't, but those are the questions that everything else in physics just has to politely skirt around.
Humans are not smart enough to answer it. The answer could be right in our faces yet we will deny it. Because we ourselves are part of the equation. And for something or some consciousness to exist beyond us is to crazy for us to accept.
I think questions like those may be impossible to answer or there might not be an answer, maybe this is just the way the universe is and there is no explanation behind it.
@@OmniversalInsect maybe. Or maybe the explanation is unknowable for entities from inside the universe. Or maybe we will eventually work it out. We are too early in the study of the universe to be sure of anything like that yet.
@OmniversalInsect we are basically fish in a fishbowl. We don't know how or why we are here, and we can't see outside the bowl. Yet there is a whole reality outside the bowl we can't see. High dimensions. Existence is eternal, infinite. Which hurts my brain. Like how can something go on forever? And how large is the scale of dimensions? What's outside of the dimensions? Can't stand the concepts as I can't know the answer.
what if they invented a teleportation device that killed you, but made an exact copy of you with your memories at a different location? Are you still dead? Are you even "you" anymore? Who is the new "you", are they seperate? That's only semi-related, but my dad asked me this when I was 9 and I'm still freaked out by it
@@a-bird-lover As someone who has thought about that a lot, I would say yes, you are still you. And that would be true even if the original was still alive. There wouldn't be an "original" you and a "fake" you, there would be two of you.
I've never felt an existential crisis from these videos. They always comfort me in some way, like when I'm reassured that the world has so much left to discover, or that the universe is much more complicated than the empty void I sometimes I think it is. I always end up feeling some kind of pure awe from the magnificence of everything we don't know, and from everything we can feel, like an ancient human gazing up at the stars and planets and galaxies not knowing what they are, but thinking that they're beautiful anyway.
Exactly man, I can't see why people get an existential crisis from exurbia, everytime I watch exurbia I feel extremely privileged to have a chance to go through the shitty, sad , beautiful , insane journey we call life

Your metaphor regarding the iceberg reminded me instantly of this particular poem: THE CONVERGENCE OF THE TWAIN (Lines on the loss of the "Titanic") by Thomas Hardy I In a solitude of the sea Deep from human vanity, And the Pride of Life that planned her, stilly couches she. II Steel chambers, late the pyres Of her salamandrine fires, Cold currents thrid, and turn to rhythmic tidal lyres. in III Over the mirrors meant To glass the opulent The sea-worm crawls-grotesque, slimed, dumb, indifferent. IV Jewels in joy designed To ravish the sensuous mind Lie lightless, all their sparkles bleared and black and blind. V Dim moon-eyed fishes near Gaze at the gilded gear And query : "What does this vaingloriousness down here?” . . . VI Well: while was fashioning This creature of cleaving wing, The Immanent Will that stirs and urges everything VII Prepared a sinister mate For her-so gaily great A Shape of Ice, for the time far and dissociate. VIII And as the smart ship grew In stature, grace, and hue, In shadowy silent distance grew the Iceberg too IX Alien they seemed to be: No mortal eye could see The intimate welding of their later history, X Or sign that they were bent By paths coincident On being anon twin halves of one august event, XI Till the Spinner of the Years Said "Now!" And each one hears, And consummation comes, and jars two hemispheres.
I mean, you should probably begin his videos with a blank slate clear of as many assumptions as you can manage. Because you know the inevitability of how these play out.
I love your videos because you upload just often enough for your channel to slip from my mind and as soon as i see an upload from you it all comes rushing back and i get really excited to see what you've come up with next
You’re the only person I’ve seen that can make anyone stop whatever they’re doing and just get lost in the endless amazement and curiosity that is existential philosophy.
True, but that applies to almost every other evidence. It's just how you interpret it. I was religious, not anymore, the same stuff that made me believe in a god are the same things that make me doubt the existence of one now
God is the wrong word I say. I mean all the religious gods are basically just some kind of humanoid rules. God ain't the word for whatever started this if it did at all. The way we are connected and unseperable from atoms the same way it's white this so called God

Fun story about anesthetics. I had a hernia surgery a few months ago and obviously, I was put under. Surgery went fine, no problems.
I come home from hospital and notice that every time I start to fall asleep, something jolts me awake. Not 'oh I'm falling', more 'oh no you don't, wake the fuck up'. This happened less frequently as nights went on and after a week or three, it never happened again.
I theorise that it was a part of me that wasn't put under, a sub-subconsciousness, fearing the consciousness and subconsciousness would both go under like during the surgery and wake 'me' up to prevent it. Eventually 'it' realised it won't happen again and let 'me' sleep peacefully.
So I can totally see how we have no idea how anesthetics work. Who knows what we are and are not 'knocking out'? What if that sub-subconsciousness is awake during it in some sense and it's terrified?
I wonder if others have the same experience. I can't find it. But then I can also hear my subconsciousness processing things in the background of my mind (different from thinking), like a dream without the time dilation, so maybe I'm just more.... Likely to experience things like that? Who knows.
Fun stuff to think about while high too.
I'm not sure if that's horrifying or intriguing.
@@AstroDas360 Both
I mean we actually kind of do know how they work. They work by inhibiting certain neurotransmitters in your brain so there's that
I had something similar happen after having my gallbladder removed. When I would try going to sleep and was right at that point where you go from being awake to asleep, my body would almost jolt itself awake. I would wake up almost panicking with this nagging feeling that I just stopped myself from never waking up again.
@@williethekid5656maybe because anesthesia does in fact, contrary to what OP’s comment says, completely “shut” you down, and you’ve managed to trick the brain that it died. The human brain is fascinating in the way that even if it knows it’s being tricked, or if even it knows the truth behind something, it still falls for it.

10:58: "And in a predicatble, ungrateful fashion we still invented a word for boredom"
your videos never cease to replace my sadness with the crushing feeling of existentialism
i dunno, I always feel better knowing that the world isnt as boring as it feels during a normal day
Every time day I inch towards these questions with my study more and more. I'm really interested by this and looking forward to the future where I might try to unravel said mysteries
These videos make me happier than sad
Why do you need a reason to exist?
Twistt As the video has pointed out, we don’t know a huge amount of the universe or why anything is here.
There may be some greater underlying meaning to everything that our puny simian brains can not possibly hope to comprehend and there is a greater intelligence to the universe as a whole.
This meaning isn’t abundantly clear to us, but it may very well be there. Nevertheless, go live your life and do what makes you happy, and maybe we’ll have the answer one day.
Nothing more relaxing than the existential crisis you get from a new exurb1a video.
Upscale 2 I’m going to have to agree with you
Yes
Indeed
This actually makes me feel relaxed not sure why. I makes believe there is some sort of order behind all the chaos we just don’t fully understand what it is yet. :)
You should better call it enlightments crisis in those times
"Well before we fail to answer that.." wish my physics lecturers were that honest
We live in the era of pseudo-intellectualism. Everyone already "knows" everything.
Coming back to this video a few years later, I'm realizing how much it has actually changed how I think about the world. The fact that we still don't understand...anything we do. We merely try things, observe, and repeat things that worked well and avoid things that didn't. I'm doubtful that will change in my lifetime, but man the world will work differently when we do get there.

“This is rather as if you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in - an interesting hole I find myself in - fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise.

The mystery at the bottom of physics is "Why is there physics?" or more accurately "why does anything exist? why does it follow rules? And why these rules?"
Maybe humanity will discovery these answers, maybe it won't, but those are the questions that everything else in physics just has to politely skirt around.
Humans are not smart enough to answer it. The answer could be right in our faces yet we will deny it. Because we ourselves are part of the equation. And for something or some consciousness to exist beyond us is to crazy for us to accept.
I think questions like those may be impossible to answer or there might not be an answer, maybe this is just the way the universe is and there is no explanation behind it.
@@OmniversalInsect maybe. Or maybe the explanation is unknowable for entities from inside the universe. Or maybe we will eventually work it out. We are too early in the study of the universe to be sure of anything like that yet.
@OmniversalInsect we are basically fish in a fishbowl. We don't know how or why we are here, and we can't see outside the bowl. Yet there is a whole reality outside the bowl we can't see. High dimensions. Existence is eternal, infinite. Which hurts my brain. Like how can something go on forever? And how large is the scale of dimensions? What's outside of the dimensions?

Gaze at the gilded gear
And query : "What does this vaingloriousness down here?” . . .

This creature of cleaving wing,
The Immanent Will that stirs and urges everything

Prepared a sinister mate
For her-so gaily great
A Shape of Ice, for the time far and dissociate.

In stature, grace, and hue,
In shadowy silent distance grew the Iceberg too
