Douglas Adams - being brilliant!

If you haven't got time to watch the whole video which is fantastic, then go to time index at around 50 minutes and listen to the condom story!

Brits! Remember "Tomorrows World" ? I reckon most will. But what about the microwriter? I don't think so!

He's "The Man"

An excellent description of the difference between male and female pornography.

And Jordan B Peterson being himself amusingly!

Well I'm blowed! I too thought a kettle was controlled by a 100 degree C sensor!

This is Ismo being a genius comedian as usual! I didn't realise you had so many adverts on American TV, boring repetitive Adverts. I thought it was getting bad here in the UK, but I think we've got a way to go to catch up with you!

I found this video interview of Roger Penrose by Andrea Morris insightful. If I gather the substance correctly, I understand that Roger Penrose says that computers can never be conscious, but I think he means by the definition a computer as a calculating machine, and therefore a calculating machine cannot be conscious. So if something becomes conscious it will not be a computer.


Now I know I'm going to get this bit wrong!

Roger said something about when the wave function collapses, this makes the object real right back to before it was in multiple positions. It's as if When the wave function collapses, the multiple objects become one as if they were always one. This apparently goes back through time, but actually doesn't go back through time? He said that the reaction times of athletes which appear incredibly fast could be due to the collapse of the wave function creating the object (the object becomes real) at an earlier time giving the impression of incredibly fast reflexes. No, I don't understand it!

going back to the original video, the teacher's answer is wrong. They owe her 20,002,000 if the logic is to concatenate the two numbers.

This Muslim comedian is hilarious! A few minutes in he tells a joke about his mum's hijab, to make one that looks a bit like a Ku Klux Klan hat.
