Sure but watching him on nova when I was a kid is a big reason I got so into science and engineering so I don't really care

Unfortunately same with Bill Nye. He seemed so pissed at getting recognized by people at a symposium.

Like geeze dude sorry you inspired people as kids and encouraged them to pursue science and they're excited to meet you.

It's a downside of being educated and fascinated by what you've learned.

He kisses himself in the mirror

He also has credible sexual assault allegations against him.

But only on the lips.

I'm educated and fascinated by what I've learned too, and I've managed to not be an pompous ass... Oh wait, nevermind.

Here is Mark Rober shilling for Anduril, an AI weapon company.

Well shit. Veritasium? Smarter every day?

[–] MissingInteger@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago

Here is an advert by Veritasium for Google's car's (Waymo). It's a terrible video. It uncritically shills. It contains garbage "research." Here is a longer breakdown.

Smarter Every Day pushed Young Earth Creation talking points in a video where he tears up remembering his time developing guided missiles :(

I liked Mark Rober until about ten seconds ago, too :(

Its a raw youtube link (I'm a cave-dweller) so I'm putting it here: https://youtu.be/VPSm9gJkPxU?t=1615
