Anton Petrov - Mindblowing Discoveries About Bacteria Living Inside of Our Guts

See my comment:

Your "And some of them make no sense" prompted me to look again and I found that the English translation of Alexander Luria's "Soviet Marxist Materialist Psychology" text "The Nature of Human Conflicts - or Emotion, Conflict, and Will: An Objective Study of Disorganisation and Control of Human Behaviour. New York: Liveright Publishers, 1932." is available via G**gle. I have only scanned the first fifteen pages, but it does look like he had a much better idea of the kinds of system that human societies, and therefore human individuals, actually are. On page 15: "But first we should challenge the attempts of the subjective study of the problem before us. Empirical psychology, trying to divine the details of the affective processes through penetrative introspection, gave us an excellent description of the emotional states, but was completely powerless to create any kind of stable basis for the mechanics of affect, and even less for a dynamic explanation of these emotions. The barrenness of the idealistic psychology indicated, more than anywhere else in its study of emotion and affect and in the detailed descriptions of the various "mental phenomena," that there had been no further progress in the advance of our realistic knowledge concerning the mechanisms of human behaviour."

Lori and I have this theory that it all started in outer space billions of years ago, ...AND WE'RE MAKING A MOVIE ABOUT  IT!! Or it's making a movie about us, ... who's asking? See Lori on Extraterrestrial Life, Dr. Becky on Extra-Terrestrial Potatoes and also After Skool - PANSPERMIA - Did Life Begin on Earth? Are Mushrooms USING US to Get to Space? and The Omega Point and The Phemonena of Man Explained, ...

David Hestenes - Tutorial on Geometric Calculus

Image
This is a very high-level overview, and not too technical, for the first fifteen minutes at least. It's about the relationship between mathematics and physics and development of scientific ideas. At 40:11 he shows how Structure and Interpretation of Classical Mechanics should have been written!

David Turner Obituary by Sarah Nicholas Fri 24 Nov 2023

This was in The Guardian: David Turner obituary , only eight days after I posted  David Turner Talking About Sixty Years of Functional Programming History : This talk was given in London in 2017: See  Turner, D. A. "Some History of Functional Programming Languages" also  John Hughes - Why Functional Programming Matters  and David MacQueen's talk at ICFP 2015 in  Numberphile - Sophie Maclean on the Catalan Numbers . At 10:30 This whole discussion abut combinator reduction is especially interesting. I didn't know Arthur Norman had tried building hardware for combinator machines. I'll look that up: maybe start here A.C. Norman  Faster combinator reduction using stock hardware  in LFP '88: Proceedings of the 1988 ACM conference on LISP and functional programming. At 26:25 on the ISWIM virtual machine implemented in the PAL compacting garbage collector?! This work Reynolds and others did was at MIT in Masecheusetts and Argonne National Laboratory Illinois. Did

Modeling Probability Distributions and Solving Differential Equations

See  Spread Polynomials : 27:48 On factorization of spread-polynomials, see  Lewis Carroll - Crocodile Story Subscribe to Norman Wildberger . JPL Orbits & Ephemerides: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/orbits.html See also this very impressive student project, which is a digital orrery that uses the JPL Ephemerides: https://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~mjc/Papers/3YP_Report.pdf  This seems to be the basis for a way to make a space-flight simulator for planets. See  Trying to Make a Sci-Fi Movie  for the context. See also  Laplace Transform : Algebraic construction The Laplace transform can be alternatively defined in a purely algebraic manner by applying a field of fractions construction to the convolution ring of functions on the positive half-line. The resulting space of abstract operators is exactly equivalent to Laplace space, but in this construction the forward and reverse transforms never need to be explicitly defined (avoiding the related difficulties with proving convergence).  Mikusiński
