literally who?
Lots of pseud-watchers
>>>/reddit/atheism is that way
...
It is well produced but his content is bad on principle.
You see, when I found him I didn't care, I watched him. It was okay... until I found that he has a degree in fucking english literature.
I thought this motherfucker had triple majored in physics, mathematics and psychology. ENGLISH LITERATURE?
This motherfucker speaks of things he has NO understanding of. He just literally reads to us wikipedia articles in a realy well edited format. That is all.
You can say anything you want about numberphile except that their content is not genuine. Every single speaker there is a PhD in Mathematics who absolutely knows their shit to a PhD level. They do not read wikipedia articles, they have wikipedia articles in steroids stored in their brains and they are giving us a peek at that knowledge.
Vsauce? Vsauce is youtube.com/wikipedia
He is a fucking english major. He is literally retarded.
It is funny because if you take a look at his videos on mathematics and got to the comments you will find shit like "lol I understood nothing of this video".
That is funny because the fucking man making the video understands EVEN LESS than those people.
He is talking wikipedia man, nothing more.
i like him! his videos are fun
his segues are pretty funny too
youtube.com
He started shilling his new show and indirectly stated that he will stop making his regular videos.
FUCKING KEK
I saw that video too. Fun, he joins to another non-scientist.
DOUBLE THE CANCER
DOUBLE THE CRINGE
Well I guess in a sense this demonstrates the usefulness of a degree in English literature and related degrees. It allows you to pretend to be smart and present information in an easily digestible fashion.
And that's about where the usefulness stops.
Yeah. He did an interview with Joe Rogans podcast. Not as smart as he would see..
Sure, I agree with the wikipedia thing, but nothing he talks about is complex enough that he likely doesn't understand it.

Gentleman of refined tastes
As someone with a significant background in economics and statistics I find Wendover to be obnoxiously simplistic for the concepts he claims to explain.
Idk he doesn't seem like pop sci at first glance but I find him to be literal pop-econ.
The rest are pretty gud.
PBS Space Time is pretty good.
You underestimate the retardation of english majors.
Remember back in high school how there were people who failed basic algebra?
Remember back in middle school how there were people who failed at multiplications with more than 1 digit?
Those guys then go on to major in english literature. That is Vsauce. Vsauce cannot multiply in his head nor solve quadratic equations.

>basing quality of content on principle
what are you, 12?
if you had to google what his major was before you realized he's retarded, then you're retarded. basing your opinion on something based on principle makes you an idiot.
pbs space time is the least cancerous and most informative one. also the one that goes the most into technical details the most. plus they're physicists and i assume they know what they're talking about. so they've got that going for them
good. i want more math stuff, if you're listening, Michael.

I'm a chem grad
Vsauce is a philosophy channel, not a science one. He never made any videos claiming to be a professional on the stories he researched. His videos encourage people to look at the world in different angles, and come away with a different perspective, and he does a good job at it too. I think it's better to be a English major who is a skilled science evangelist, then an actual qualified scientist who makes youtube videos for preteens.
I've never watched this faggot, but I want to punch him in the face.
Does he actually do his own research, or does he have like a team that does it for him and just presents it?
he has a team, hes just reading the lines.
>gravity is a property of matter
HAHAHAHA
Mass is a property, not gravity. What a faggot.
>All memes aside, what do you think about his content?
He's basically a wikipedia repeater.
"Hey youtube, Michael here from Vsauce, I just read this fascinating article on wikipedia, and now you are all going to make me a lot of money to listen to me repeat it in a quirky, badly edited video!"
Vsauce? More like Weaksauce!
...
>least cancerous
Is that an actual screencap or was someone just bored?
>It allows you to pretend to be smart and present information in an easily digestible fashion.
I already do both of those things and I don't have a degree. Can I be arrested?
thanks for your contribution to the thread
Yeah their graphics designer put actual pony cancer in some of the episodes... Absolutely degenerate. The contents of the show itself is quite alright though, just try not to pry your eyes out every now and then.
PBS Spacetime is the best popsci channel, but some of his vids are pretty good
Cody is so fucking based
>drinking cyanide solution
>biting sodium metal

fuck you, literature is beautiful

Please tell me you're being ironic.
>getting triggered over a few ponies
PBS Spacetime is a good channel. I know that mlp is overhyped as shit, but it's not as bad as everybody want's it to be. If you ignore all the spam and cancerous fanbase it's not as bad as it seems. Get's boring after a while tho
...
Sure but any retard can study it.

>tfw vihart will never sit on your face (after shaving her legs)
>AvE
You are the reason people hate science and math and think they will never understand it. Michael isn't a scientist, he's a SCIENCE COMMUNICATOR. I don't know if you realised, but "communication" and "English literature" tend to have some overlap.
He isn't claiming to be a genius, he just makes surface-level informative content that both gives a decent general outline of certain scientific/mathematical/philosophical topics, and encourages viewers to go looking for themselves if they really want to learn more about said topics. In other words, what any good popular science media should do.
Fuck off Michael
>If you major in English, that's the ONLY thing you can be knowledgeable in
Holy shit the stem supremacy is strong here, his stuff is simplistic and non technical but its not like he's spreading false information. I mean his aim is to interest people in science without a science background which he does very well.
only science/math videos on JewTube I watch are lectures
fuck popsci
Agreed. Imagine having a fucking math teacher explain to you the way an English major dude does. I know for sure most of PhDs in math/science that can't explain anything for shit
What do you guys think about Kurzgesagt?
...
No. You're autistic.
Gets the point out, but is biased in more than one way.
Look at his refugee video.
>Very good animations and content
>Sometimes talks about something scary as fuck and then gives you an existential crisis in the end of the video
Serious question: Why do people hate on Numberphile? Don't watch much of their content but the few vids I have seen were ok.
>No one has mentioned 3blue1brown
shit thread
Mathematics is so much more than arithmetic and algebra. You sound like a person masquerading as being 'good at science and math.' It reminds me of that qoute by Neil-Degrasse Tyson about philosophy majors.
Potholer54
I might be mis-remembering things but I'm pretty sure one of the professors was in an anti-anti-sjw video.
kurzegesagt is a huge faggot.
he is presenting complex shit in an easy way, so that people who have not studied it can understand. what's the problem here, man?
ITT : university students get butthurt about videos made for laymen explaining concepts to laymen.
You faggots are pathetic.
>no mention of nurdrage
Thread is shit
>Gets blood test
>Mercury levels within normal range
how the fuck
finally someone has mentioned him , i love his videos
His persona doesn't annoy me as much as the green brothers
Just a fun trivia channel tbqh
Only problem is, is that every time he uploads a new video, everyone goes around saying "I READ THE OTHER DAY THAT XYZAB?"
>kurzegesagt
I still haven't recovered from some of the topics
>not BigMoneySalvia
>different angles
>angles
that's still math. Fucking philosophy can't stay away from us
math stuff was good.
he got a little weird in the latest one though about spinning. idk, just seemed like he wasn't enjoying himself
literal socialist

I find his stuff too abstract and pointless to be of any value to me.
Michael McCrudden is bretty gud
Hey autist, you don't have to be a world class expert in a subject to create entertaining videos about it.
how old are you?
3blue1brown is really good
His video on solving a problem using topology is super interesting
Yeah but he sounds like an autist. Just listening to his condescending voice gives me flash backs to freshman year c programming where half the class were CS majors.
smells like projection
You go deep enough on a subject and you lose perspective of things. Michael is in a field where his ability to communicate comes in handy to inspire people to think about science, and his broad knowledge on other subjects and thorough research bridges gaps between them.
This. A lot of experts are really shitty as science communicators.
>Adam Savage
>Mythbusters, the show that did the most for science awareness in the united states out of literally any and all forms of media.
ew, gross, he's a non-scientist.
You should add Exurb1a to that list
He's obviously a great educator, has a original entertaining style and other qualities.
I haven't seen most of his recent video, but his latest video named "Spinning" is very basic and a waste of time.
Spirit Science!!!!
autism
His videos are interesting and relaxing. Pretty quality content to be honest, I like him more than Veritasium or numberphile.
His videos are for entertainment. If you want to study some subject, you should read paper works instead of watching youtube videos.
