Really great description of the american sprawl. These issues eat away my soul every single day, and this guy wrote about it in 1973.

Some of my favorite excerpts:

The invention of the personal automobile, and destruction of public transportation, was a triumph of capitalist drug-peddling; suddenly, all at once, everyone’s personal mobility became dependent on a single, new commodity, gasoline. Without it, we are unable to function, since urban sprawl and suburbanization now means we can’t even walk to work if we wanted to.

“The typical American devotes more than 1500 hours a year (which is 30 hours a week, or 4 hours a day, including Sundays) to his [or her] car. This includes the time spent behind the wheel, both in motion and stopped, the hours of work to pay for it and to pay for gas, tires, tolls, insurance, tickets, and taxes .Thus it takes this American 1500 hours to go 6000 miles (in the course of a year). Three and a half miles take him (or her) one hour. In countries that

This is a really great course, taking you from a beginner in neuro-science, to a high level. It's probably worth having some background in biology, but the first few chapters do give a very brief review of some relevant topics, like genetic techniques. I haven't finished reading it yet, but I find myself picking it up all the time.

Huygens Optics demonstrating an interesting experiment that really challenges your incorrect intuitions about optics and quantum mechanics.

A discussion about the ethics of scientific journals, with compelling arguments. Giving some love to https://sci-hub.st/

Very interesting exploration of politics, ethics, and human nature. He present information in a very level way without too much editorializing. This video is very approachable and level headed.

Widely applicable model that describes how electrons bound to an atom respond and generate electromagnetic fields, similar to a mass on a spring. Relevant to understanding EM waves and the usually glossed over topics of Reflection, Refraction, Absorption and optical properties of plasmas. Very interesting.

Golden resources related to computational neuroscience and an introduction to the field. Artem Kirsanov, with incredible book recommendations and an entertaining format.

The diagrams are awesome in this paper, and the results about split-personality are really interesting. sperry1968

A short, approachable book to the theory of Quantum Electro-Dynamics based Feynman's lectures.

Home-shop OLED production! Such an incredible display of technical skill, and a home shop anyone would envy.

Huygens Optics and his awesome shop made monolithic telescope. Such an interesting series diving into the details of optics and their production.

The famous U-Net paper, foundations for modern image generators like Stable Diffusion

Awesome garage implementation of TMS!

Seminal paper describing Trans-cranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). I'd love to build one of these.

He explores the idea of an inductive clutch mechanism, for CVT. Interesting concept. good execution, but ultimately not efficient.
