  • Please feel free to ask any questions! Math is a wonderful field full of beauty but unfortunately almost all education systems fail to show this and instead makes it seem like raw robotic calculations instead of creativity.

    Math is best learned visually and with context to more abstract terms. 3Blue1Brown is the best resource in my opinion for this!

    Here’s a mindblowing fact for you along with a video from 3Blue1Brown. Imagine you are sliding a 1,000,000 kg box and slamming it into a 1 kg box on an ice surface with no friction. The 1 kg box hits a wall and bounces back to hit the 1,000,000 kg box again.

    The number of bounces that appear is the digits of Pi. Crazy right? Why would pi appear here? If you want to learn more here’s a video from the best math teacher in the world.

  • Half Life is awesome! If I had to choose from all the games I’ve played, the half life series has to be best in my opinion. There are so many small details and world building elements in each half life game that it really does make it feel like you are in the game. And then there is Half Life: Alyx…

    It was so immersive, I smashed my head against the wall trying to run away from something lol

    Warning Half Life: Alyx Spoilers. Do not read it unless you have played this game. It is a once in a lifetime experience.

    I had that moment in Half Life Alyx: at Jeff. No game makes you feel genuine fear as that level did. You felt as you were there physically trying to escape from death. Best gaming experience ever!









  • Awesome! Thanks for this post by the way! It has been my favorite post to go through since I don’t have a google account and can’t use their recommendation system. Plus, the recommendation system definitely doesn’t give us as high quality channels as some from this thread.

    There are still hundreds if not thousands of hidden gems on YouTube. I’ll come back to this post and share some as I rediscover them.

    Here is another one before I go. Astartes. Sad they stopped but glad they found employment at least for their skills.
