Flat Earth "Science" -- Wrong, but not Stupid
In this video I explain what flat earthers believe, why they believe it, and why I think scientists should take flat earthers more seriously. The CNN article which I quote is here: https://edition.cnn.com/2019/11/16/us/flat-earth-conference-conspiracy-theories-scli-intl/index.html The G

Reactive Systems use a high-performance software architecture. They are resilient under stress, and their reactive design allows them to scale elastically to meet demand. The reactive design approach allows the creation of more complex, more flexible systems and forms the basis for some of

Teach Astronomy - Fine Tuning in Cosmology
http://www.teachastronomy.com/ One of the very difficult things to explain in standard cosmology is the flatness of space. Remember that the early universe was small and dense, and space-time was actually curved and knotted in the quantum era so the current flatness of space is an unusual

There are two different types of reductionism. One is called methodological reductionism, the other one theory reductionism. Methodological reductionism is about the properties of the real world. It’s about taking things apart into smaller things and finding that the smaller things determ

Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems: Overview
This video presents an overview lecture for a new series on Differential Equations & Dynamical Systems. Dynamical systems are differential equations that describe any system that changes in time. Applications include fluid dynamics, elasticity and vibrations, weather and climate systems,

Reconsidering `functions' in modern mathematics | Arithmetic and Geometry Math Foundations 43
The general notion of `function' does not work in mathematics, just as the general notions of `number' or `sequence' don't work. This video explains the distinction between `closed' and `open' systems, and suggests that mathematical definitions should respect the open aspect of mathemat

Eliezer Rabinovici - Persistent Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking at High Temperatures
I will describe the results of a series of works in which we have found systems for which Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking(SSB) persists to very high temperatures. The systems involve Conformal Field Theories of scalars in fractional dimensions 3\ltd\lt3 and for Gauge Theories in d=4. The sys
