    "I do want to talk about the importance of being able to change your mind, in general, the trick is to keep your identity separate from your opinions. They are objects in a box you carry with you and should be easily replaceable if it turns out they're not good. if you think the opinions in the box are who you are then you'll cling to them despite every evidence to the contrary.
    Bottom line, if you want to be always right you need to always be prepared to change your mind."

      I'm not quite sure but I think even the German original of the game spells it Catan - I'd have to go all the way to the closet and look for the game.. or ask google. Both of which I can't be bothered to do right now - so no Katan anywhere. But never mind that, yes I want that video as well and yes it is the greatest board game ever. Apart from the really, really crappy space Catan-thingy. That is just bad, not just because Catan needs wooden pieces (and the spaceships keep breaking)

    I think that you should keep the ideas that you throw out, but put them in a junk drawer for lack of a better word. Every once in a while, you pull a bunch of stuff out of the junk drawer and mash them all together with a few revisions and jokes added in, in a CGPGrey teaches you random things video. Then you can teach all of the things, and still maintain a level of quality for your videos.
    Also, why am I not more glad that you like the interrobang‽

    I really idolise this CGP Grey character, very well made videos and content. A few of the things I like most about him, probably like many others is his anonymity, and how he keeps his job as an educator, rather than doing the green-eyed self-centred things most humans would do, which is selling out, and tapping in the money. His anonymity gives a funny sense of mystery, since my physics teacher could be him cause of the similar background, voice and way of talking, it's almost like a real-life educational batman. Well, I'd say my physics teacher is probably not him, but anyway, I love your work CGP Grey, and hope more comes.

    Honestly, I don't care that there's no schedule. The quality of the vids make it worth it. And in a slightly backwards way, it makes me more appreciative of the effort and time put into creating the videos. Because if there's a schedule I might go "oh, of course he's gonna upload a video." whereas a more scattered upload schedule make every time a video come up a "oh my gosh, a new video!!".

    The cooling down in a hot summer day thing is, I think, related to what people in the middle east do to "keep cool". Or rather, it tricks them in to feeling cooler than they actually are.
    Think about it. You drink hot coffee, or tea, or cocoa when it is cold to warm you up, but the result when you go back out into said frigid abyss is that it feels even colder than before. Something similar is being happening for those that drink hot tea to "cool off" on a hot day and in no air conditioning. Give it a try, or you could start wearing a scarf (or shemagh) loosely around your neck and then take it off when you get indoors.

    • @IDecisive
      @IDecisive 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      1. I think that has to do with how different your body temperature is, compared to the environment that you're in. In the example you gave, you go inside (gaining heat from being in a warmer environment compared to outdoors, assuming indoors is warmer), you drink a hot beverage (gaining more heat) and you go back outside. Therefore, the difference in temperature between your body and the environment is now greater than before you warmed up and so you feel like it's colder. In reality, you're just warmer and are rapidly losing the heat you gained not too long ago.
      2. Shemaghs keep the sunlight from directly hitting the skin around your head/neck which is why you feel cooler wearing one in a hot, sunny day than you would if you weren't wearing anything to protect your skin. The energy hits the shemagh first so the intensity or focus of the energy is lessened compared to having the energy hit your skin directly. Essentially, you are left warm/hot while wearing a shemagh as protection, rather than being cooked/burnt alive under the sunlight.

    Celsius at 0: Water freezes.
    Fahrenheit at 0: The coldest you can get if you mix salts and crushed ice correctly.
    Celsius at 100: Water boils.
    Fahrenheit at 100: A bit above human body temperature.
    Which seems like the best to you?

      Fahrenheit because I grew up with it, and perfection doesn't bother me, measuring with the foot is 12 inches, a mile is Idek, and all the weirdness, I prefer metric, (because thats what my school book (I'm homeschooled) taught me) it's more of a "I use cause I always have" kinda thing

    I have a question, CGP. Have you ever considered including podcasts into your media-sphere, instead of just videos? I love your videos, but knowing how coomplicated they are to make, would creating podcasts (in addition to videos) be another opportunity to get your voice out even more?

    I obsess about gamedesign all the time and Settlers of Catan is fairly certainly my favorite board game.

    YOU GOTTA MAKE THE CATAN VIDEO! I reaaaaaaally dislike that game; to me, the game really just shows how much board games have gotten better over time through better game design choices. Less dice roll chance time, more strategic tactics. Less political gameplay elements. More variety not through random board creation, but through swapping out different game pieces and changing the entire game functionality. My opinion is probaby biased since I play the game all the time, but I definitely think Dominion is the best board game of all time. Boards are always new and bring different ways to play. There's so much variety and so much tactical decision making. But it's still a card game, so there's still luck and uncertainty. So good.
    So yeh, I really want to hear what you've got to say about Catan and why you think it's the best board game ever.

    • @InLaymansTerms

      @lkjkhfggd 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know somebody who loves Warhammer, and it's just not for me. I'm not into collecting and painting miniatures. And Risk is way old. You could bottle Risk with other classic board games that pretty much everybody has played, along with Monopoly, Sorry, Scrabble, and Clue.

    I have no idea what that game is. But I was 1000 times more disappointed it got cut. CGP, You've overlooked something you explained in a previous video: Creativity encourages more creativity (and the same for content). I would prefer to see videos from you more often. I think its worth resurrecting the cut videos, because we are all the harshest critic of our own work and they were probably awesome. Please stop judging yourself so harshly.

    Hey, grey,Just so you know, if you ever make the video about settlers of catan board game- i might not be fully into it but i will 100%, without a doubt, watch it.
    Possibly while doing something in the background like organizing my room,washing dishes or writing something but i would definetly watch it :)
