There is more coming, he's been working on the topic for years. I think the extra long delay between this and the next in the series is due to a combination of his rather slow rate of production, recent American politics, and Covid (b

Well my point is that Minecraft does actually feature some decentralization vs the vast majority of online games.

I don't have a solution. I don't have much knowledge of such extremely complex systems and I have no hope of coming up with a solution myself. I can see that my car is sputtering black smoke when I drive it and correctly identify

This exact point has been my hesitation with NFTs in general. I think the immutable nature of NFTs is actually very incompatible with human nature; we make mistakes and a completely unforgiving system is only going to make life harder.

If someone dies because they cannot get treatment in a hospital (because it is full of covid patients) do you not consider that death a byproduct of the covid epidemic?

I think Minecraft is an interesting game to bring up since multiplayer in this game exists in a very decentralized way. Anybody can host a server and your possessions (etc) on that sever are completely unrelated to other servers. One could

Yes I certainly do too, but working with ladder logic can force you to think very differently and solve interesting problems in different ways. You can monitor exactly how the code is running at any given time, you can directly edit it whi

Take a look at Ladder Logic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ladder_logic I don't think this was necessarily created by non-programmers, but it was certainly created for them. The language is designed to mimic elec

One of those people is entry level and the other is at least mid level. Certainly it would depend on what kind of a position you're trying to fill and how much you can afford.

Related to this - If you want to read a story about a truly post-death world check out the YA novel Scythe. CGP Grey recommended it awhile ago (I assume he read it while developing his video on this topic) and it's an interesting (and

I believe the idea with gender being immutable is that people who transition to another gender are doing so to align their gender with what they believe it should be. In this way it is immutable; a person assigned male at birth, who later

It doesn't compete, they are for different applications. PLCs are industrial devices that are extremely rugged. They operate in very harsh environments: very hot or cold, oily, high vibrations, etc. They need to operate 24/7

Put down your Ayn Rand novel for a second and gain some empathy. A few rich crypto miners pricing many people out of electricity is inhumane.

I was a heavy user of Wave for the brief period of time it existed. Although I struggle to think of how I will integrate this into my workflow today, I am excited to give it a try.
