Feynman: Take the world from another point of view (4/4)

Richard Feynman
Take the world from another point of view (4/4)

Hello. If you liked the Feynman Video, could I ask you for a favor? If you know of any employment opportunities for an electrical engineer in the Portland, Oregon area, please let me know! I have a PhD in Electrical Engineer and am teaching a college level physics class but am looking for additional work. My specialties are in RF electronics and electromagnetics. Thanks. - aaronsky12

The moment at which he says "I take it all back" is one of the most outstanding intellectual moments I've ever seen. The moment that it dawns on him that he had been getting tunnel vision, he renounces it gladly and with no shame, and articulates a greater truth instead. This is the kind of mind to which we should all aspire... If we as a culture could recant without shame, think how better a society we could make...

That was an absolute joy to watch! Thank you

@morrowindfan75 You're back tracking now when did I say I thought I knew everything about the world and what does it matter if I'm 20 and living Britain? Who said I donate money how do you know I don't volunteer my time? I don't see what you think you have to prove and this conversation is going no where fast.

"you're assuming I'm fat and don't aid 3rd world countries"

But you don't.

Money is not support.

People give money to third worlders so they can write it off in their tax returns, not because it's the right thing to do.

You are 20 years old, living in GB, thinking you know everything about the world, yet you know nothing.

@ronocko At what point did I judge 3rd world people? you're assuming the guy below is genuinely from a 3rd world country and not a troll, you're assuming I'm fat and don't aid 3rd world countries, If you're not the same guy I was previously talking to you really need get some reading comprehension because what I said is that technology is the only thing helping 3rd world countries creating drought resistant crops full of essential nutrients and vitamins to vaccines for their children etc..

@morrowindfan75 wwwDOTinternetworldstatsDOTcom­/statsDOThtm Look at the penetration specifically in areas considered 3rd world including Asia and Africa 23.8% of Asians have access to the internet even less in Africa where only 11% have it which is probably mostly the richer areas like cape town. They are both below the world average for penetration. I can only assume that you are the same person on another account because you're acting just as irrational. Making more baseless assumptions.

@ronocko

"STATISTICALLY 30% of the world have access to the internet being in the top 30% of the world with a privileged access to the internet makes it hard for me to believe he is truly personally living on the poverty line."

Statistically, I find it hard to believe that your "statistics" are accurate, you make shit up. You're from GB, you're in no position to judge third worlders, neither am I. I sympathize with 3rd worlders, while you sit on your fat ass in Manchester eating fish + chips.

[ronocko]

@morrowindfan75 Again making incorrect assumptions STATISTICALLY 30% of the world have access to the internet being in the top 30% of the world with a privileged access to the internet makes it hard for me to believe he is truly personally living on the poverty line. Maybe he is I'm asking where he's from and he's dodging because he probably is a troll and you jump straight to his defence.

@Romansteel13 Not american, Try again.

Your countries not doing too bad if you have an internet connection I seem to remember only 30% of the world having an internet connection.

"are indeed from a 3rd world country but have a computer with internet."

There are internet cafes all over the world, are you aware of this fact?

Even in Bulgaria, piracy capital of the world, where the average citizen makes 250 USD per month, have internet. God Green day wrote a song about you.

@ronocko

"are indeed from a 3rd world country but have a computer with internet."

Yes because internet is a first world commodity.

Fucking American moron, thinking the world consists of America.

And you wonder why the rest of the world hates you and your people?
