Conversations with History: Steven Chu

[kazakhstanmkj]

what does he do on his free-time?

[kazakhstanmkj]

In my community, know one cares or knows what is UC Berkeley or Nobel Prize, like what relevance is this to us. The mentality here is a total 360.

[kazakhstanmkj]

I just think it will be far advantageous to someone if they do speak Chinese or have literacy in Chinese. There are White people who speak Chinese. I do not understand why not learn. It seems a little selfish to not learn and he is so smart. He may get to a longer audience. He had a white American interpret for him at global conferences. That is so embarrassing. Many people at my Asian community deliberately look down on people if they cannot speak more than 1 language.

[Tommo108]

@kazakhstanmkj hahaha same here this is how i feel about my mom's family in Taiwan who neither know english nor attempt to learn it since they (should) know i grew up in the US. and they think its my fault that my chinese isn't as good as my english

[kazakhstanmkj]

@Tommo108 People in Taiwan are not obligated to know American English for you or anyone. If they choose they choose. If you do not care about your heritage language. You do not care, that is your choose. If they think it is your fault. Maybe it is your fault, maybe it is not your fault. I mean i the end you have to take full responsibility of your life consequences. Some times are others accountability. Most is yours. You ultimately have to pay the price of your oversight.

[kazakhstanmkj]

@Tommo108 When you are young it is somewhat tolerable. But when you are aged and adult. The consequences overwhelm you. You see the social impact everywhere. Many people do not care and do not bare to help. Even the people who you look at, parents family friends your community church. Business as usual. No LOL. Maybe LOL to yourself.

[kazakhstanmkj]

Steven Chu is an American boy. I think it is somewhat strange for someone who only knows 1 language yet he is really well respected. There are homeless people on the streets who speak 4 languages. They say knowing many languages is a sign of intelligence or a strong indicator of intelligence. I guess it is not if you can speak many languages that matter but what you are saying I guess.

[dataznguy5]

I'm currently doing a research paper on untracold atoms and only then did I found out who he is. He has contributed so much to science. A truly inspirational person, well structured, well spoken.

In the northwestern Australia, we have huge tides,

huge evaporation and huge dry rivers and lakes.

Tides are up to 12m. Evaporation is up to 4m per year and can be increased.

Huge 12m tidal erosion can revive old dry paleo dormant once mighty rivers, creeks and lakes,

desalinate the country and change deserts to rain forests to provide more rain across Australia.

World population is growing rapidly and we need more energy, food, land and water.

[lavernedi]

Free energy has been here all along ,But the Oil coporations life depends on covering this up,Find a motor that needs no fuel or input at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,take part in the revolution!

[sirchristopher2000]

Isn't it ironic... The vast majority of us that might take something out of this, and crack on with their dissertations, report, revision or whatever are sat on youtube...

[gw2005]

@ironmantis25 cause every other occupation receives almost no attention because it's not "asian"

[rinwhr]

He kinda reminds me of Michio Kaku

[1888junkteam]

excellent worker!

[MrUniversity101]

He is one of very few scientist that could apply academia into application. Really amazing combination!

[polymath7]

Apply academia to application?

[jeff45854]

Steven Chu, perhaps the most brilliant scientist I have ever seen, his logic is pretty high, love to watch him.

[ironmantis25]

why are almost all famous asians are either martail artist or scientist

[MrUniversity101]

Genetic, physical size, cultue & envronment..

[somebodyjustgotshot]

lol god made the world you frivolous gigolos

[yushis1]

I'm inspired by Chu's work and accomplishments, but he really needs to work on his lucidity in interviews.

He jumps around a lot and stumbles over his words.

[beancube2008]

In this new milenium with the help of technology, we need resolution. Don't worry too much about those basic in the old days, imaginations from a lot of observations and verifications from people will help us avoid danger of technology as the old date. It opens a concept of cross fields or swap learnings which will definitely benefit from developing countries.

[askfskpsk]

Where is he from? Stanford?

God, that's my dream school......

[winkiiV]

UC Berkeley I think?

[Oglenthorne]

Another libtard whacko to add to the long and growing list of dirtbags who hate America and ought to be tarred and feathered along with their boss.

[MrUniversity101]

Get a life!

[LiberalsSuckBallz]

Dr Chu said this The American publicjust like your teenage kids, arent acting in a way that they should act, Dr. Chu said. The American public has to really understand in their core how important this issue is. (In that case, the Energy Department has a few renegade teens of its own.) -Dr Chu (Taken from the Wall Street Journal blogs.wsj. com/environmentalcapital/2009/­09/21/steven-chu-americans-are­-like-teenage-kids-when-it-com­es-to-energy/

[SeaTurtle00]

He's definitely smarter than the average bear!

[pinochet222]

awesome, very engaging person! I'm so glad he's in the Government now!

[LiberalsSuckBallz]

Oh yeah another Eugenics fuck in the bilderberg usa...WONDERFUL IDEA! pfffft

[pinochet222]

lol, you're insane ...

[LiberalsSuckBallz]

Hey schmuck if your going to throw out statements like that then back them up don't respond to me with empty bs comments. Its a well known fact Bilderberg runs this country behind closed doors.

[pinochet222]

Bilderberg, yeah, right ... LOL

[LiberalsSuckBallz]

LOL you will be crying in the streets and starving.

[junglehuhu]

不能听懂全部，我得好好学英语～～～

p.s.声音很性感～呵呵

[draxous178]

A true inspiration. Thank you Pro.Chu

[kimiguo1988]

帅 帅 帅  quite charming.

[Tood721]

He's so inspiring and accomplished.

Secretary of Energy and Nobel Laureate

[tomblok80]

All the best Prof. Chu. Being an Asian, I am very proud and insprired by your achievement and more so by your humility.

[woodoven]

i really like the music at the beginning for the conversation.

[xinssun]

very nice persen. charming!

[ArchNME]

Best pick so far for the new administration. It almost makes me feel like we really might solve our energy problems before it's to late. So glad to have an actual scientist heading the effort.

[8data]

hes  the best DOE leader choice in US history, glad hes giving himself to that and accepting that level of responsibility, we should all wish him the best for public sector optimism

what a person of integrity, vision, one person can change society

[mehdan2]

A very good person. Charming humility

[cpiratebee]

Thank god.  A cabinet member who is not from Bill Clinton's old posse.

[8data]

the best choice by far, i do not agree with bioengineering, but hes by far the best federal cabinet choice of the last thirty years, in that he has no greed industry attached

an amazing person of grace, intelligence who is showing personal courage to go beyond science for the future of usa in energy policy

the most fascinating man of uc, what a great choice for us citizens

[echoicq]

Watching this reminds me of my father, and the best parts of Chinese culture that he tried to instill in me. Thanks for this inspiring video that gives us hope.

[qpomovies]

Leave it to Obama to make that statement come true. I love our new President Elect!

[kryptex]

Chu is brilliant. Putting him into politics would almost be a waste of his mind. He'd certainly do the country some good, though.

[ridicter2]

Brilliant and clearly socially intelligent as well--a rare combo.
