Thank you

Science makes it magical!
You already can't deny the beauty... and you have the privilege, the HONOR, I would say the DUTY and OBLIGATION.... To know as much as you can, to appreciate to the fullest, the magic that is OUR world and universe.

I can't tell you how many times I've sent this video to someone who tells me that science sucks the 'magic' or 'poetry' out of life. I was rather shocked to notice that a recent episode of 'Breaking Bad' featured this Whitman piece. I know that the producers are trying to appeal to a wide audience, but I found the context in which they used it disturbing. Maybe they were smoking meth' when they added it? :/
-
Thank you, Isaac.
You are greatly missed.

The part in the beginning of the text is similar to a passage from a Richard Feynman interview from 1981. The interview is also worth watching: v=ZbFM3rn4ldo, or directly at bbc (search for "the pleasure of finding things out)

@az7stars What the hell does that emoticon mean?
Oh right, have god pop into my house and punch me in the face, breaking my nose and cause me to bleed liquid gold. THEN I'll believe.

What an amazing video and what an amazing world/galaxy/universe we live in.

@UneCritique i just find it ridiculous when people copy paste someone else's opinion and pass it off as their own. How intellectually empty are you?

But we're so UGLY if we're ONLY made of atoms! We're only TRULY beautiful and our lives are only TRULY meaningful when we're sprinkled with fairy dust.

@UneCritique nice copy paste job. lucky for you this isn't a classroom or you'd be tossed out of school for plagiarism. super gay

"To a volume of zero"
More accurately, "to a volume approaching zero," but I'm splitting hairs.
-
As a scientist, shouldn't you be using metric measurements?
-
"talking through his hat", haven't heard that one before. Thanks.

@UneCritique While Googling some of your text, I stumbled across something weird... did you rip this entire discussion off Wikipedia? I found their 'dark matter:alternative theories' section, and they present the theories in the same order and terms that you did. They even cite the same scientists you named as their sources, although they didn't misspell Hossenfelder's name.
-
@UneCritique Wow, you admit that half the theories you put forward as viable weren't, but then have the balls to act like I'm the one with no knowledge on the subject? And if there are so many spin-offs, name one. Also, if you have such a 'depth' of knowledge, then you knew your theories were rejected years ago and still put them forward as viable, rather than their spin-offs, so you should apologize for trying to trick me as well.

Gravitational backreaction see spin-off of quantum gravity "F(R) nor and quantum gravity attempt to replace dark matter"
A spin-off of quantum gravity is multi-dimensional forces from outside the visible universe have gravitational effects meaning that dark matter is not necessary as a explanation,
I can continue but "bullshit" this conversation ends here, thank you for the chat
The videos I most enjoy on youtube are these essays and their accompanying images. Thank you so much C0nc0rdance.
