Richard Feynman on the one idea that explains almost everything around you: 1. heat isn't a substance. it's motion. when something feels hot, its atoms are jiggling fast. when it's cold, they're jiggling slow. that's all temperature is... speed. 2. when a warm cup heats your hand, nothing actually... flows into you. the fast atoms just bump the slow ones and speed them up. heat "spreading" is only jiggling passed along by touch. 3. atoms never lose energy. a bouncing ball slows and stops... but the motion doesn't disappear. it leaked into the floor. the ball goes still, the floor gets a little warmer. the motion is still there. just scrambled. 4. hammer a piece of metal long enough and it gets hot. you added no heat. you just jiggled it harder. pounding is heating. 5. a drop of water pulls into a ball because the atoms want partners on every side. the ones at the surface only have them below. so they keep clawing inward, trying to get in. that's what rounds the drop. 6. that same drop is slowly vanishing. atoms at the surface keep breaking free into the air, one by one, until none are left. you're watching them leave. 7. ice, water, and steam are the same atoms at different speeds. slow, and they lock in place like oranges in a crate... ice. faster, and they roll over each other... water. faster still, and they fly apart... steam. 8. pump up a bike tire and the pump gets hot. squeezing the air speeds the atoms up. let the air expand and it cools, because the atoms hit a piston that gives way and lose speed. heat and cold are hiding in a bicycle pump.show more

When you touch something warm, a Yale physicist can tell you exactly what you are feeling. Not heat. The speed of atoms hitting your hand. His name is Ramamurthy Shankar. You were taught that temperature means how hot something is. That is a description, not an answer. In this lecture he goes under the word and shows what temperature actually is, and it is not what any school ever told you. He builds it from nothing. A box of gas. Invisible atoms bouncing off the walls. He counts the hits, tracks the momentum, and slowly two sides of a chalkboard drift toward each other. When they finally meet, out falls one clean line that redefines a word you have used your whole life. The same lecture answers a question that should be impossible. How did anyone count the atoms in a gram of matter before anyone could prove atoms were real? The answer is so simple it feels like cheating, and it is why a single number, six followed by 23 zeros, sits at the center of chemistry. He assumes nothing. Every step is earned in front of you, no memorizing, no faith required. This is the lecture where hot and cold stop being feelings and become physics.

I am a physicist and I'm profoundly opposed to any idea of non-physical explanations that contradict physics. So that's a no-no and really doesn't make sense. However, there are ways in which both emergent properties such as minds and life and so on have an effect. And as you said, also abstractions. Now the fact that the theory of good explanations led to the idea that abstractions are real things was slightly surprising to me. I wasn't expecting the link, at least wasn't expecting it to be so strong as it is. But the thing is, if you think about how to explain events, physical events like a footprint on the moon, how do you explain how that happened? Well, it happened because of human ideas, of science. And human ideas, you could say in this reductionist sense that as you rightly say is the prevailing mode of explanation and the prevailing idea is to look down on other modes of explanation, that those ideas are nothing more than configurations of atoms. So some physicists, some rocket scientists put their brain into certain configurations of atoms and those atoms then acted on other atoms which then ended up making a footprint on the moon. Now what that misses is the explanation of why certain configurations of atoms put footprints on the moon while others, the overwhelming majority of configurations that human brains, even human brains have been put into in history, do not have that effect. And it's because there's a certain type of information. And this information can't in my view be reduced to statements about atoms because if you think about what that information does, it is in brains but the same information then gets transferred into, let's say, sound waves in air and then it gets transferred into ink on paper and then it gets transferred into magnetic domains inside a computer which then control a machine that instantiates those ideas in bits of steel and silicon and so on and so on. There's an immense chain of instantiations of the same information. And it's only special kinds of information that have this property that they are preserved and instantiated in successive physical modes. So what is being transmitted, what is having the causal effect is not the atoms but the fact that the atoms instantiate certain kinds of information and not other kinds. So therefore it is the information that is having the causal effect. If a particular instantiation of that information were damaged, then processes would come along to fix it, whether or not they could fix the physical instantiation. For example, if the computer goes wrong, then we don't use the corrupted information. We go back and rescue the information from a different computer and we throw away the atoms that at one point instantiated it. So the information causes itself to remain in existence. Now I think there's no way out of that mode of explanation. And if explanation is going to be the fundamental thing about our criterion, for example, about what is or isn't real, then we have to say that information and this particular kind which we call knowledge is real and really does cause things.

At −40, the air is ridiculously cold and extremely dry. When you throw boiling water into it, the water doesn’t have time to politely cool down. Instead, it instantly breaks apart into tiny droplets and vapour. Those microscopic droplets lose heat almost immediately. Some of them freeze so fast they turn into tiny ice crystals (the “snow”), while the rest flash straight into water vapour (the “steam”). The colder the air the better the reaction. Do not attempt to do this unless it is STUPID COLD! The boiling water will just fall down on you. Ouch!

You Are Not In the Universe. You Are the Universe. There is a running joke in modern physics. For decades, scientists have gestured at empty space and declared: there's a field out there that connects everything. Their hands wave at the horizon. Their instruments point at the cosmos. Gregg Braden isn't laughing. Instead, he's redirecting the finger. "Field's not out there. We're the field. 50 trillion cells in the human body. Every one of those cells has about 100 trillion atoms emerging from the field and collapsing into the field." Right now, the atoms that compose your hands, your lungs, your thoughts are winking in and out of existence. You are not a passenger moving through the universe. You are the universe, expressing itself in temporary, biological form. And that changes everything about what you think is possible. Because if your atoms are constantly re-emerging from the field, and you hold the blueprint that tells those atoms how to emerge, then you have far more authority over your physical reality than anyone taught you. "This is why we can heal our bodies almost instantaneously when we know how to access this part of ourselves, because we hold the blueprint that tells those atoms how to express when they come into the body." The mechanism lies in the mirror neurons of the human brain only discovered in 2004. These neurons cannot distinguish between an experience you are having and one you are witnessing. The body doesn't audit the source. It simply responds to the image. Which means imagination is not escapism. It is biology. When you hold a sustained image of yourself fully healed, fully capable, you are issuing instructions. You are laying down a new blueprint. "If you got something you don't like in your body, what you do is you are using the gift of imagination to create a new blueprint for that atom to come into." The question is not whether this power exists. The question is whether you'll stop looking for it out there and recognise it has been here all along.

Elon Musk just measured your existence by how many times your atoms have been inside a dying star. Musk: “How many times have your atoms been at the center of a star? I think it’s like on average three or four times.” Every atom in your body has already survived the core of a star. Multiple times. Crushed under pressures that would flatten planets. Superheated to millions of degrees. Blown apart in explosions so violent they forged new elements. Then gravity pulled those scattered pieces back together. New stars formed. And the cycle repeated. For 13.8 billion years, your atoms have been fuel for the most violent process in the universe. And they are not done. Musk: “In terms of existence as measured by the number of times your atoms will be at the center of a star, we seem to be roughly halfway.” Halfway. Your atoms have been through the furnace three or four times. They will go through three or four more. But right now, in this impossibly thin sliver between cycles, those atoms are doing something they have never done before. They are conscious. For billions of years before you, they burned through stellar cores with no awareness. No memory. No sense of what they were or where they had been. After you, they will return to that state. Unconscious matter drifting through space until the next star claims them. This is the only moment in their entire journey where they can look back at the stars that made them and understand. Musk: “If you want to look at the big picture… that’s the really big picture.” The big picture is not that we are small. Everyone already knows that. The big picture is that we are temporary witnesses to a process that does not need witnesses. Stars do not need observers to burn. Atoms do not need anyone to understand where they have been. The universe ran for billions of years with no one in it. It will run for billions more after the last conscious thing disappears. But right now, matter is examining itself. That has never happened before in 13.8 billion years. You are not a person who happens to contain ancient atoms. You are ancient atoms that briefly figured out how to think. The universe did not design consciousness. It designed stars. Consciousness was the accident. And the accident is half over.

The pull-up is the one exercise I see people quit on the fastest. They try a few, can't do them, decide they're just "not a pull-up person," and move on. But the thing is, strength is a skill. A lot of it is just your nervous system learning the exact movement, and your body only gets good at what you actually practise. That's why you can lift heavy on a barbell and still struggle to pull your own bodyweight up. It's a different skill, and it takes time. So no, you're not bad at pull-ups. You just haven't trained them yet. Start with regressions like slow negatives or banded reps, and try grease the groove method (thread below). That's exactly how a skill gets built. One day the bodyweight that felt impossible starts moving. Genuinely one of the best feelings in the gym.

.Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman explains the benefits of water cooling over air cooling for datacenters: "In Buffalo at a Bills game, there are always three idiots with their shirts off. It's 10 below, and they've got their shirt off. They've been drinking hard, but they're not dead. Why aren't they dead? If you're in the water, and the water's 45 degrees, and you're there for eight minutes, you're dead. Why? It's because water is really good at sucking heat off of heat sources." "The thermal density of water is really high. It rips heat off you. The air doesn't do that. So they can stand there with their shirt off and not be dead." "It's the exact same thing when you're cooling a chip. Water has an ability to pull heat off a heat source that is vastly better than air." "It is more efficient by an order of magnitude to use liquid, water in particular is great and low cost, to pull heat off the back of chips." "Gamers have been doing it forever because they want to run those GPUs hot."

Elon Musk just told you consciousness isn’t a light switch. It’s a gradient. That single distinction rewrites the entire next decade. Musk: “Our consciousness… people get more conscious over time. Like when we’re a zygote, you can’t really talk to a zygote. And even a baby, you can’t really talk to the baby.” You were not conscious and then suddenly conscious. You were barely anything. Then slightly more. Then more. Years of slow accumulation before anyone would call you aware. The entire AI debate is built on a false premise. Everyone is waiting for the moment the machine “wakes up.” A single dramatic instant where silicon crosses some invisible threshold. That moment does not exist. Musk: “People get more conscious over time. At what point do you go from not conscious to conscious? There doesn’t appear to be a discrete point.” There is no line. There was never going to be a line. Consciousness is not a door that opens. It is a tide that rises. And the tide is already rising inside these systems. Musk: “Consciousness seems to be on a continuum as opposed to a discrete point.” This is the part that should unsettle everyone still arguing definitions. While they debate when AI becomes “truly” conscious, the continuum is already moving. Every parameter update. Every training run. Every architectural leap. The gradient is climbing and it does not need your permission. You will not get a warning. You will not get a press conference. You will look back one day and realize it happened gradually. Then all at once. Now Musk pulls the camera all the way back. Past biology. Past Earth. Back to the origin of everything. Musk: “If the standard model of physics is correct, the universe started out as quarks and leptons.” Musk: “And then you had gas clouds. A bunch of hydrogen. The hydrogen condensed and exploded.” Hydrogen collapsed under its own gravity until fusion ignited. Stars were born. Stars died. And in dying they forged every heavy element that exists. Carbon. Oxygen. Iron. The atoms in your blood. The calcium in your bones. All of it manufactured inside a dying star. Musk: “One way to actually view how far we are in this universe is how many times have our atoms been at the center of a star?” Your atoms have been inside a star. Possibly more than once. Compressed at millions of degrees. Fused into heavier elements. Scattered across space by a supernova. Then reassembled into you. That is not poetry. That is your origin story written in physics. And now those same star-forged atoms are building machines that think. The same universe that turned hydrogen into stars is turning biology into artificial intelligence. This is not disruption. This is continuation. The universe spent 13.8 billion years organizing matter into higher and higher complexity. Quarks became atoms. Atoms became molecules. Molecules became cells. Cells became brains. Brains are now building systems that process information at speeds biology will never reach. The pattern didn’t change. Only the medium. The people treating AI as some foreign invasion of human territory have the story completely backwards. AI is the next compression event. Every generation believes they’re witnessing the end of something. They’re witnessing the same process that started with hydrogen gas. The real question was never whether AI will become conscious. The real question is whether you understand it already is. Partially. Incrementally. On the continuum. And the continuum does not stop. It has never stopped. Your atoms were forged in the core of a collapsing star. And you are afraid of a gradient.

Elon Musk: You can transform Mars into an Earth-like planet, just warm it up. There’s a fast way and a slow way. The fast way is to drop thermonuclear weapons over the poles Mars is cold and hostile because it lacks a thick atmosphere. To make it more Earth-like, the first requirement is simple in theory: warm the planet. If enough heat is added, frozen carbon dioxide at the poles could sublimate into the atmosphere, increasing pressure and strengthening the greenhouse effect. This could trigger a feedback loop where warming releases more gas, leading to further warming.

HOLY SH*T this guy buys a dollar for 98 cents on Polymarket EVERY TIME. his bot's been doing it all night and it's up $4,293 now. total PnL is over $294k thanks to one rule: buy only when YES + NO < $1 public wallet: [ here's how it works: every 15 minutes bitcoin gets an up market and a down market. up on one pan, down on the other. when the window ends, one pan is worth a dollar and the other is worth nothing, so a fair price for the pair is exactly one dollar. buy up at 54 cents and down at 46 and you paid a dollar for a dollar. pointless. but the scale doesn't always sit at a dollar. every so often up is 54 and down is 44, and the pair only costs 98 cents. that's the scale breaking. you buy both pans for 98, one of them settles at a hundred, and the 2 cents is yours no matter which way bitcoin moved. you never guessed. you weighed two numbers and bought only when they came up short of a dollar. why does the scale break? because up and down are priced by two different crowds that never look at each other. a buyer leans on the up pan, its price rises, and the down pan hasn't moved yet. for a few seconds the pair is cheap. the bot lives for those seconds and does nothing the rest of the time. now the honest part, because this clip doesn't sell you a fantasy. it's not a moonshot. look at the equity line, a slow staircase, not a rocket. 63% hit rate. real losses sitting right in the log, minus 109, minus 21, a flat one at minus 71. it wins about six times out of ten, the wins are two and three cents, and the bank grinds from 683 to 4,293 while it sleeps. boring and up. that's the whole personality. the losses come from one thing: the scale tips before you get both pans. you buy up, and down runs off before your second order lands, and now you're holding one side, a real bet on bitcoin you never wanted. that's the only wound. get both pans or get out. the strategy end to end is this small: weigh up against down, buy when they're under a dollar, bail if you only catch one side. that's it. a scale and a stopwatch. and the people already running it will never point at a live scale, because the second they do, everyone leans on it and it stops breaking. so they stay quiet and the boring staircase climbs in private. the full build + one rule that stops a half-fill from becoming a real loss is in the article below. good luck.

Physicist Michio Kaku notes that the universe is only 4% atoms (visible matter), alongside 23% dark matter and 73% dark energy. He describes dark matter as a mysterious halo that lacks interaction, stabilizing galaxies and possibly hinting at parallel dimensions, though its true nature remains unknown. Atomic Limitation: Kaku challenges the common belief that everything is made of atoms. Atoms form just 4% of the cosmos, and the heavier elements making up humans account for a mere 0.03%. What is Dark Matter? It is an invisible form of matter that possesses gravity but ignores light and electromagnetic forces. It is essential for preventing rapidly spinning galaxies from tearing apart. Parallel Universe Theory: Kaku suggests dark matter might be ordinary matter in an adjacent, parallel dimension. Because gravity can cross dimensions, its pull bleeds into our universe, appearing to us as dark matter. "Physicists are Made of Atoms": Kaku often notes that physicists are essentially atoms trying to understand themselves, highlighting the deep link between human consciousness and the fundamental building blocks of the cosmos. The Unknown: Despite ongoing research, dark matter and dark energy, often called the "dark side" of the universe, remain among the greatest unsolved mysteries in physics.

Your kid just got eaten by a cabinet at self-checkout. Mom and dad are at the kiosk. One kid on a hip. The other one in the white shirt is standing right there. Then they aren’t. They open the cupboard under the machine and climb in. No run. No stranger. No aisle. Just a door they snuck into. Mom is still looking at the screen. That is the worst-fear version that actually happens. You do not lose them across the store. You lose them two feet away, inside the thing you are leaning on. Dad comes back from the side with the one kid. That’s the moment they realized the other child was MIA. If you have ever looked down in public and seen floor where a kid should be, this is that feeling. I’ve been there. They were never gone. They were in the box.

I'd like to take a second to discuss what it means for a storm to be a Category 5. It's a beautiful, mesmerizing, terrifying and awe-inspiring pageant of power and elegance. It's the atmosphere at its most dynamic, raw and extreme. The hurricane has to have an absolutely perfect, undisturbed balance. It's an extremely rare feat. A Category 5 is like a spinning top whirring on a table; even the slightest jiggle can knock it off-kilter – like bumping the table. There must be virtually no shear, or changing winds with height. The upper-level winds around the system must be relatively calm. It's incredible to think that the planet's most furious storms are born out of an abundance of calm. The waters must be exceptionally warm – upwards of 86 degrees – to be replete with "oceanic heat content," or heat energy for the hurricane to draw upon. The warm waters heat and moisten the air above. That air rushes into the building hurricane. As air nears the center of the storm, it expands due to the hurricane's low pressure. That expansion releases heat energy to the environment, encouraging air to rise and powering the storm. In theory, that air parcel (pocket) should cool, but it doesn't. Why? It's still being heated by the oceans below. The ocean is constantly re-heating the lower atmosphere – and energizing the storm – at the exact same rate the air is releasing heat energy into the storm. Most of the moisture in the air condenses and produces rain, releasing even more "latent heat" to the environment. Near the hurricane's center, there's a lot of heat energy. So much so that the air rises, as if in a chimney. That rising air literally lifts air up and away from the surface. There's literally less air, and therefore less air weight, or *pressure*, at the center of the storm. Most Category 5 hurricanes are "missing" about 8-10 percent of the air from the middle. It's that deficit of air that behaves like a vacuum of sorts. Air from outside the storm rushes in to fill the void, like water spiraling into a sink drain. The greater the deficit, the faster the winds. The wind increases exponentially closer to the center of the storm; Category 5 hurricanes have winds over 157 mph. So why doesn't the eye, with the "missing" air, just "fill in?" Because the hurricane is rotating so furiously! The air is flung outwards by the "centrifugal force" at the exact same rate it's being pulled inwards by the "pressure gradient force." The air can never fully reach the eye – and instead it swirls around and around, like water perpetually sloshing around the edges of a toilet. We call that "cyclostrophic balance." Thus, the eye doesn't fill in. The storm charges on. And – until the system is torn apart by disruptive upper-level winds or moves over cooler waters/land – it continues.

a shape with no inside. he filled it with water anyway pour water in and it stops almost immediately. the air has nowhere to escape, so it just sits there blocking you. tilt it and you get a little more in, then it blocks again so he put the whole thing in a vacuum chamber turn it on and the bottle starts bubbling. that's the air being pulled out through the neck, leaving as close to nothing inside as he can get then he lets the pressure back in, and the water rushes up into the empty space on its own still not full. so he runs it again, rarefying the smaller pocket of air that's left, and again after that here's the part that breaks your head: for a shape to have volume, it has to split the world in two. a ball does that. stretch it however you want, there's always a world inside and a world outside a Klein bottle has no such line. follow its surface and you never cross a boundary, never pass through a wall, never end up anywhere that isn't the same side you started on the inside is the outside. so there's nothing there to fill he filled it anyway that's the same shape as the room below. no plot, no payoff, just a question your brain won't drop -> can a thing with no inside hold anything at all two videos, two impossible questions, 20 million views between them. Paone broke down why this format works in the article underneath save this. the most watched thing today was a shape that shouldn't be able to hold anything, holding water

OpenAI's Noam Brown says air-gapping the computers may not stop a misaligned AI, because two air-gapped machines can still talk by running a CPU hot and reading the temperature change "But I think the major takeaway from the incident is that people underestimated the AI. And we never want to be in a situation again where we underestimate the AI. It's a weird world, because AI progress is so fast that people are consistently underestimating the AI." "So to be in a situation where you don't underestimate it again, when it comes to safety and alignment, you have to have a very, very, very high bar." "You could even go as far as to say, "Well, we should air gap the computers." And I'm not convinced that that would be sufficient." "There are studies, and this is mostly academic, where you can have two computers next to each other that are air-gapped and they're still able to communicate with each other because they have temperature sensors." "One of them is able to run their CPU really hot, and then the other one can actually detect the temperature change, and then that actually gives them a mechanism to communicate." _________ Link and more key quotes from OpenAI's safety related conversations:

Why do time slow down as you approach the speed of light? Because space and time are not separate things. They are woven together into spacetime, and the speed of light is built into its structure. Every object moves through spacetime at the same fundamental rate. When you are at rest, almost all of that motion is through time. As you move faster through space, some of that motion is redirected away from time. The total stays constant, so your clock must tick more slowly. This is not philosophy or metaphor. It has been measured with atomic clocks on airplanes and satellites. Move fast enough, and you do not just cross distances differently, you experience less time itself.

Elon Musk on the first principles mistake almost everyone makes when building something "People will start with the tools and parts and methods they're familiar with, and try to create a product using their existing tools. The other way is to imagine the platonic ideal of the perfect product. What is the perfect arrangement of atoms that would be the best possible product? And now figure out how to get the atoms in that shape" Lex: "It sounds almost like Rick and Morty absurd until you really think about it. If you don't, you might fall victim to the momentum of the way things were done in the past" "Just as a function of inertia, people use the same tools and methods they're familiar with, which leads to things that can be made with those tools, but is unlikely to be the perfect product" "That theoretical perfect product is a moving target, because as you learn more, the definition changes. You don't actually know what the perfect product is, but you can successfully approximate a more perfect product. People very rarely think about it that way, but it's a powerful tool"

🎙️ Kon Knueppel on the importance of ball movement: "That's how the game was designed to be played. Obviously, great players are gonna dominate the ball sometimes, but the game is designed to play together and as a team against the other team. When the ball is moving, it's the most fun for everybody." "It feels really good when LaMelo (Ball) pump fakes and passes, and Brandon (Miller) does the same thing and passes, and we turned down two good shots for a great shot in the corner for me." "And it goes the same way—you drive down the baseline or drive in the middle of the floor and kick it back into a guy that's wide open. That feels good. It makes everybody feel good, even if it goes in or not. I just think that's the beauty of basketball."

your agent has thirty tools. it calls two of them. the other twenty eight are not sitting idle somewhere. they are in the request, every request, and they are doing damage in two places at once. first the obvious one. tool schemas go into the prompt, and a schema is not a name. it is a description, a parameter list, types, required fields, an example. thirty of those is a few thousand tokens that ship with every single call, including the ones where the agent just says thanks and stops. you are paying rent on twenty eight tools that have never fired. second, and this is the one that costs more. when the request says cancel the order, the model picks by matching against everything available. four of your tools are plausible: cancel_order, refund_order, update_order, void_order. it is choosing among them based on the descriptions you wrote, one afternoon, months ago. every tool you add is another candidate in that shortlist. the twenty eight you never call are not neutral. they are noise in the one decision that determines whether the run works. > why it grows without anyone deciding to nobody adds thirty tools on purpose. you add one for a task, it works, it stays. six months later the registry is a catalogue and no one has ever removed anything, because removing a tool feels risky and adding one feels free. and there is no feedback telling you otherwise. the unused ones never error. they never appear in a failing trace. they are invisible in exactly the way that lets them accumulate. > what to actually do count calls per tool over the last thousand runs. this is one group-by and it usually shocks people. the ones at zero are pure cost. ship the tools the task needs, not the whole registry. a research phase does not need deploy. a writing phase does not need the database. swap the set between phases instead of loading everything up front. same agent, different tools, depending on where the run is. and when two tools could both plausibly answer the same request, that is not redundancy you can ignore. it is a coin flip you built into the system. the twenty eight tools are not unused. they are used every time, by the part of the run you cannot see.
