It’s still so hilarious without the cruder humor. It’s the play on words that’s astronomically charming. Cutest narrator ever! Please make sure Attenborough find this man as his successor! Someone!
I'm a programmer and slime mold is a great example of search algorithms and pathfinding. It is amazing how the laws of physics can make elements just organize themselves in a code and some how move and apply that code.
Tips for beginner programmer?
@@cleveland9598 Learn how a computer actually work. Like how a processor translate binary into actions. That code is made simpler for us using Assembly language but you can literal code a program in binary. there are software that will print to you the binary of the assembly code. This stuff is sadly not covered well on you tube.
To learn that stuff you will need to learn boolean logic and logic gates. In minecraft before newer in game items people used redstone torches and wire to make logic gates. I think on the wiki you can still find these old logic gates. they are not important in themself, you are not the one building the circuits. you just need to be able to understand how to make xor gates using just and, or and not since languages like java dont have xor logic included.
also don't bother too much trying to make things efficient at first. while you are learning binary and boolean logic, work on simple programs that can simply do math from the consol input and output and go more complex after. depending on what kind of programing you want to do, assembly and cpu achitecture is useless but if you want to get into hardcore efficiency they help to learn because all languages basically translate their files into assembly except for languages like Java and Python who use a software already made for the specific architectures and translate their code on the go. it makes them less efficient but they allow the code to be universal across machines. The way languages turn code into binary which is assembly code is directed by the compiler of that language so by knowing how that work you can get into more efficiency but that's later computer science stuff for people who will make the software for very specific machines or work on the next windows or linux OS.
Finaly, never trow out your code, and work to make it all in modular libraries. that way you can reuse code you already made. It also helps when working on projects with multiple people since you can compartmentalize the code. Real good code you could upgrade by swaping 1 call to a new library as long as that library was well made and tested. Oh and always work small working bit to small working bit and test as you go. its far more rewarding to build small parts that you know work then to code for days only to have days of debugging to do before it works. For instance in a calculator, get the consol input and output working so you can see that it captured what you type, then try adding and so on. for games you start by having the window work, then displaying something, then having basic controls and so on. all small steps that altough they dont give you a full working thing, gives you tiny rewards to encourage you.
@@cleveland9598 Do the codez. And then do the codez again.
@@DasAntiNaziBroetchen not for me, for my lady lol. She's stuck in coding purgatory
@@cleveland9598 Do the codez. And then do the codez again.
I am so happy that there is a perfect person to pass the classroom documentary voice over torch to when the inevitable comes for Attenborough.
im not ready for that inevitable :(
@@Hannah57293 well Attenborough is 96
Oh my god yes. We need to start a petition to make Ze Frank the new voice of Planet Earth when that old voyeur Attenborough croaks or decides he's tired of describing how every animal on earth gets it on.
@@caddywampa6602 (sorry, could you please help me? I.. i can't tell what you're saying here?)
@@canarysilvertail7706 They’re just saying we need to make a petition for Ze Frank (this channel) to take over David Attenborough’s role when he passes away/ retires.
As a teacher I appreciate your ed friendly version.
Me too!
This guy stole these videos go to “ze frank” for full videos to support him
@@NorthWestKings It says in the description that This channel is run by Ze Frank. So where did you get your information?
yes but i think kids would be more interested in the other version and pay attention more
@@kirill2525 yeah but think of a kid telling a parent that they heard curse words in a youtube video in class, and all hell breaks loose. im sure the teachers would prefer to show the other, but they dont want to get in trouble over a youtube video.
I was really hoping the slime mold video would be converted to an educational edition; my students will love it. The time lapse movements or combining of 2 slime molds was epic.
I did laugh at the change of growing another nipple to eyeball; now we don't get to talk about polythelia xD
What's funny is last summer I found some of this slime mold in the forest next to my house. It was LARGE on a fallen tree trunk and SO weird I sat down right next to it and googled it. Interesting stuff....
And you were speaking to it, go on admit it.
@@louisecairney5068 Absolutely!😆
What arrre you?! You're GROSS...what do you doooo? Are you stinky?! Why are you heeeere?
Something along those lines 🤣
I love it when I watch the original and come back here to learn even more about the topic
Does this have any extra info though? It's just the dirty jokes edited out
I love that you have a more kid friendly channel now. Cant wait to see adaptations of many previous videos, if thats actually gonna happen.
Right, but how's he gonna do the duck video?
That's how Ze Frank do!
Nature really isn't kid friendly but sure one can just talk on other things leaving out some facts
We all know that JERRY was the source of all the unsavory ballyhoo, tomfoolery and shenanigans.
thats fuckin gay XD
I always watch both versions. Ze, you deserve the views and you do such an amazing job that I enjoy it both times!!!
Is this really him or someone pretending to be him to get monies
@@schonkigplavuis8850 it's really him. he links to these videos from the community section of his main page.
Thank you!!! I am a teacher and have been watching and loving your show for years and it killed me that I couldn't share this with my students. This is just what I have been wishing for, I don't know how I have not discovered this educational edition until now. Keep them coming!
I love the educational versions just as much as the originals. I always watch both.
Thoroughly enjoyed your reading of the genetic code 🤣
It was very klaatu berata nikto. I was getting worried there for a moment, but fortunately he stopped in time.
This video deserves so many more views.
The finest of info-tamement.
What a great episode. These organisms are so interesting. Thank you. Would you consider doing an episode on nano wasps, aka fairy flies? They are microscopic moths which no one knew until someone turned a microscope upon them.
Thanks for making a version for younger viewers! I think my daughter will love these.
Thank you so much for making the same video but for the classroom. At first, I was a bit disappointed when I couldn't show the video to any students (since the videos are super good), and I was extremely excited when I found your second channel. Thank you!!!
I really appreciate you doing both versions and I enjoy them both for different reasons! THANK YOU!
Aww you took out the screaming skull joke. I thought that one was chips friendly but still funny.
Agreed.
I love how these videos are made they're so good you can just re-watching whenever I've watched so many of these over and over again
What's really nice is what the 'ed' version does for you.
You go through so much research and it's complex, intricate, complicated, messy, holistically valuable to the video and takes time and effort to collate and produce into something that is audio/visually stunning and ready for entertainment but moreover, for instruction.
This way I get to see all that hard work - and boy! I'm just so, very, very, very impressed! You're a beautiful person and I really appreciate this version of your videos, not just for the way it's approachable but for what it shows about the deeper you. Nicely done and thanks so much.
💖
Yes! The world needs more of this! For years I have been carefully previewing each video that was made in this series to determine which of them I could get away with showing my son as he got more mature. These days I have largely opened up the floodgates and we are both enormous fans of the hilarious fact focused content. So I am very happy to see this development and will be recommending this version of the videos to friends and family with younger children. Well done!
I have wanted to use these in the classroom for ages! So glad you've done this!
Damn, you guys are so nice. Please teach the world about the amazing and sometimes crazy world of interesting animals. Lovely work, though I am going to stay with the regular version :D
You did not lose the humor! Education can be fun. Love you, Ze
This is amazing, welcome to classrooms all over the world, i guess! ❤
The footage is unbelievably good, it's so much better than anything i had ever seen, certainly lightyears ahead of the stuff i had in high-school
I had no idea, slime mold, could be this interesting
This is honestly one of my favourite content creators, your videos and commentary are fantastic!
You’re fantastic!!! I do love these “clean” versions that I can share with my parents and a couple other people in my life- and I love the adult versions too!!
Oh snap glad there is an Educational Edition. I remember showing the regular channel to my daughter before bed (cause we always watch nature vids before bed), and half way through I was like "Oh Crap! I totally forgot how non-kid-friendly these videos were. Well she's young she probably won't understand... I hope..."
Welcome to real life
I love slime molds. They're absolutely fascinating. Thanks for the video.
OMG! Thank you, it was pure excitement to listen to a passionate voice and see this beautiful video. It's so exciting!!! Thank you!! The information is so interesting and I want to know more.
The funniest and most informative slime mold video ever! Greatest narration!
This is my first visit to your channel and this particular demonstration is great! Thank you so much.
Not a bad one in the playlist. I highly recommend "Sad Cat Diaries".
@@katiekane5247 I will check it out. Thanks.
i remember learning about slime molds years ago in school, i love them and i love this video!
All that glitters is slime mold and only protistan stars break through the gold!
First time watcher here. Your distinguished voice clashes with your commoner humor in a most delightful way. Great job!
I have just been educated - about something I knew almost nothing about, in less than 10 minutes
Excellent collection of video clips wonderfully edited to accompany a lively informative dialogue.
Brilliant.
Beautifully created! It is enough to get anyone ready to run off and be a scientist.
I'm so happy to have found a second channel. The education is top notch but your voice also helps me sleep at night! Thank you for that ❤😂
That was absolutely incredible! I was never very interested in slime molds before. Now I have a newfound respect for them
Beautiful compilation...great information, thanks
ZeFrankly, I love it. My daughter gets to watch more too, though some more colourful ones were shown because it is too good to pass up!
Oh my goodness, I'm sending this channel to our whole faculty!
Just found your videos. Love the narration. Keeps it lively.
This was incredible! Not only was it deeply fascinating and made me adore slime molds even more, I was laughing my butt off! This is the way I like science and the passing on of knowledge! Awesome.
I’m thankful for this child friendly version, because I often learn a lot from your hilarious sassy videos, and I want to pass on the knowledge to the young ‘uns, but I can’t because of the jokes. This is great! I want everyone to know about slime molds. 😁
Love the commentary jokes!! I was grossed out but yet intrigued at the same time. Great job on the presentation!
"Science Hippies"
Amazing content. Rare to see such fun, interesting and enjoyable video on YT.❤👍🙂
I can't decide which form of video I like better. E for everyone, or M for mature. Keep them coming! They all are great!
Personally I prefer your regular True Facts videos but I can share these with my niece and nephew and still get a good laugh, so I consider it a win anyway. I love your work no matter if it has adult humor or not
Spectacular always have time to learn more about this ,facanating !!
I love Bea Leiderman's work! thanks for making sure her name was visible.
You had me at "throbbing goblet"! Never change my man!
This is the most beautiful video I saw from a long time!
I feel deceived! I thought this was going to be some dry dissertation on my favorite topic and by a minute in I was nearly choking on my snack from the FUNNIEST, COOLEST, BEST presentation I have ever seen/heard!
I love your vids, thanks so much for all you do
Hi Ze Frank,
I have profound appreciation for your educational videos. Your humor is on point and make learning biology fun. Much thanks! From a high school bio teacher.
I don't know if you take requests, but if you do, can I request a video on ants? Here are a few that stand out from just the average and have their own quirks:
Weaver ants (make nests by gluing leaves together)
Leafcutter ants (grow farms of fungus using leaf cuttings like fertilizer)
Suicide ants (Can literally self destruct)
Honeypot Ants (Some members of the colony become living food storage containers)
Allomerus Decemarticulatus (Create living minefields by making a hollow fungus tube that has holes in it, which the ants bite prey through as they walk over the tube)
Dracula ants (Feed on the blood of their own larva, which they keep alive by feeding them paralyzed prey)
P.S: I would love the video whether it is on this channel or the main one, whichever you feel like if you do decide to make a video on the topic. Thanks for the content :)
He's got one for trap jaw ants, and kinda army ants on the main channel.
@@Damonnanashi Oh cool, I'll have to check them out!
The names for slime molds can be pretty great too, like the "dog vomit" slime mold. 😆
This is fascinating and the narrator is HILARIOUS!!! I thoroughly enjoyed this video hahaha I also appreciate the classical music in the background
Superb job, packed with scientific facts one can lean a lot from, and that lovely English humour we 💘 so much on the Continent...👌
Always love your videos! Thanks for reminding me how incredible the world is
YESSSS so awsome to see so much footage of them moving!!
Fantastically presented!
Amazing Video. Education with humor ALWAYS works!
Amazing work
Tragically underrated.
So glad this exists, I'm going to show this to my son.
the content is amazing, but the production and narrative is perfect. Congratulations
thank you for these fantastic videos, greetings from Italy!
Brilliant. . . And entertaining too . . Thank you 👍
The 'kill me' at 5:22 is to die for!
Outstanding! Brilliant!
I love slime molds. I also enjoy that this video is more dry and logical, my brain is rejecting/repelling emotion whenever it cognitively devours information because thats just whats more natural and easy for me.
Love that you made these censored versions thanks alot❤
had no idea you were making these, Frank! these are great, sub'd for the kids
these are great, hope you'll keep adding to the collection!
These are brilliant! I've been wanting to show your videos for years but can't due to the adult humor (darn parents not wanting their kids exposed to penis jokes...). I'm so glad to have stumbled upon these!
Thank you for making these educational editions! I love the original True Facts episodes, but don't want my eight year old repeating some of the things in it to all her classmates 😂
Great footages and explanations!
Awesome video! Thanks.
I love the way you narrate these.
This uploader stole this video from zefrank.
What can and can't a Slime Mold learn?
If I had a hundred gallons or jugs of slime mold, what can I teach it?
The goal of these questions is to create a slime mold with human levels of sentience and intelligence. Something this video made me believe might be possible.
Love this narrative! So fun to learn. 😄
Yay! It’s so cool that you’re making things for kids! 🎉
Amazing 😊thank you for making this video
Very well done sir!
And to think his whole career started with a funny 1990's video of him dancing sent to family and coworkers.
Enjoyed it. Thanks.
I really like thinking of DNA as a Book of Spells. Makes Sense ✨
Good show ✌🏽☘️
love your vids, funny & fascinating
Thanks for the awesome content and great video!
This was REALLY interesting!!👏🏻👏🏻💚😱
Wonderful stuff !
This was a great video I will.follow the longer method of grain prep as I see the contam I easily accepted with the no prep grain
This is ridiculously good.
I really loved this one
Currently pregonate, making a mental note to start showing my bebe this channel as soon as possible
