Talking Heads approves of this video.
Hey! Didn't you hear the news? They were actually more phonograph records sold in CDs in 2022. I guess turntables must be making a comeback
Future humans are going to find that do nothing machine and be absolutely amazedβ¦.. there will be theoryβs and speculation that will drive people mad π
Marvin Minsky co-founded the entire field of artificial intelligence, founded MIT's AI lab, wrote a number of books on AI and won the Turing award in 1969 as well as countless other awards. There are few scientists who ever lived that were as accomplished in their fields as Minsky. He did a LOT more than create a useless box lol. Unfortunately he died in 2016.
Awesome wallet π₯
Bad research staff!
The H3 system can be quickly used to repurpose rapid transportation from Kaneohe MCAB to Joint Base Pearl Harbor/Hickam and Honolulu Harbor. The H2 can be allocated if Schofield needs to move their heavy equipment as is the H1.
The H3 is likely the best highway in the world, certainly in terms views from within a vehicle, but there were challenging engineering challenges that were met and addressed if you actually drive it.
H3 is gorgeous and the fastest way to get to the other side of Oahu….i just drove it today and marveled at the speed and views.
It also serves as an alternative when the other tunnels are shut from landlslides, accidents, and unexpected events.
Im very happy and grateful it exits.
Marvin Minsky didn't just spend his time inventing the Useless Machine. He's a leading name in artificial intelligence, and computers generally. Any geek worth his salt knows who Minsky is.
I get frustrated when I misplace my old anti-vegan leather wallet. I just feel that if I cannot find this ridge wallet thing, how mega frustrated would get it would take 3 times as long to find
As Latvian, I'm proud of our achievements in most useless page in humankind history.
Not having anyplace to store N-waste just means it sits in pools near populated areas just waiting for some terrorist to drop a bomb in the pool and contaminate a huge zone… I can see Nevada's point.. we got no nukes.. we don't want your trash… But doing nothing? Weill.. that has always worked for other problems.. lol
Maybe the Italian guy watched the classic silent Metropolis?
Buildibg Rube Goldberg machines is simply what electrical and mechanical engineers do when they're bored. Living in Silicon Valley, I have plenty of friends who are engineers abd I've seen this first-hand.
You missed the point of 1, 2 and 5. 3 and 4 had a very specific purpose that became outdated or over budget. 1, 2 and 5 should be in a video with other similar items that inspire wonder. 3 and 4 should be in a video that center on not acting in a timely manner or selling your idea properly.
Hang on, we can't build a scientific instrument on a mountain but they can bulldoze a bunch of sites for a useless road?
He had a point, with the useless machine.
With the real machines, we have eaten the planet.
Again Democrats
Few people own a turn table these days? π
Nope It cost 9 Billion not twelve you cannot take todays cost and carry it back in time because we aren't building it now!
The Useless Machine reminds me of the Jack in the Box. Maybe it wasn't so useless.
Wait wait wait. .. did FactBoy just talk sht on neon signs??? Oh the irony. #ogbb
2:43 Any time Simon goes off script to do a Casual Crim style rant on one of his more fact boy very scripted videos makes me so happy lol
Good Show!
I can see how people in Nevada would dislike having nuclear waste stored there since they don't have any reactors of their own. Kinda like how the rest of the US would like Nevada to stop sucking up all the water in the surrounding area, so they can have a bunch of cities and fountains in the middle of the effing desert.
You KNOW that the Nordin bomb eight was a WWII invention, Simon!
Cheers Simon! …once again, you and your team put out some amazing content.
I'd like to suggest a video about 'monuments that no longer exist'… the general premise is around the fact the original World Trade Center monument for the parking garage bombing in 1993, and how it was destroyed in the 9/11 2001 attacks and largely forgotten.
The S's in your videos are a little sharp which makes it a little hard to fall asleep to fyi
If a machine is designed to do "nothing" and it does that…. it just failed?
Can we add Ridge wallets to the list? Just clean out your current wallet and save $70.
The music group Okay Go has one of their music videos, ππ©πͺπ΄ ππ°π° ππ©π’ππ ππ’π΄π΄, that runs a li'l under four minutes, following the progress of a Rube Goldberg like contraption.
A do-nothing machine? Pffft, I don't need a machine to do that.
My favorite is "Marble Machine Music" right here on Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvUU8joBb1Q&vl=en
Another comment on H3. Whatβs itβs primary purpose? To connect major military hubs (Kaneohe and Pear Harbor). But as others have also mentioned, itβs secondary purpose of being a shortcut from Eastern Oahu to central Oahu is extremely useful also. It probably saves an hour of driving, plus has much more capacity than the other route.
This entire episode is designed to make you not think outside the box. Sooner then later we won't have inventors, just drones.
they should have just forced the yucca mountain site. F the politicians. it was NO DANGER to anyone being there and it solved the issue of the waste being stored on site at every nuclear plant. but the general public are idiots and politicians are even more so.
Norden bomb sights were WWII, not WWI.
