Technology connections! Good channel!
Oh my god I watched that video years ago but never realised it was rational animations. I guess people grow up and keep doing good things.
I noticed that recently too. Sometimes popular channels have strange origins…
buildings with reinforced concrete last 100 years max
if you know the precise location a nuke is stored, you can shoot an anti nuke beam (neutrinos) and deactivate it without an explosion. in a space war, this would allow you to turn nuclear missiles into relatively harmless kinetic missiles
western style walls can survive against cannonballs from afar, but not if they are shot from close, giving rise to star forts and sieges involving zigzaging trenches. chinese style walls are thicker and can survive against any impact, but they are pricier to build i guess
they are carnivores
deltas can form on the land if the river completely evaporates before reaching the ocean or a lake
if the underwater is often electrified, the multicellulars have an easier time doing horisontal gene transfer

oh my god it blocks the video and changes the link as well because it has “k” in it 3 times in a row. just search “I’m A Genetic Engineer. I’m Also a Fish” in youtube. on my previous post the link had g-a-y in it. you probably couldnt open the slime evolution video. nobody said a thing.
holding something doesn’t have to make you tired
lots of species live in the boundary between the briny and non briny water
sound design
ants living in something that looks like a potato. the potato builds the ant homes, not the ants
plant seeds digging into the ground by themselves
Fun fact: Those minecraft videos were one of the primary sources for myself figuring out how to make a basic implementation of IK.
I have some slightly newer implementations that work a bit better that I haven’t recorded.
By far my favorite example of kin selection is that in eusocial insects the workers are more closely related to their sisters that their children, so they prefer to help out the hive than to find a mate. It makes so much sense why ants themselves to their deaths to save the queen because even if they die, a longer living queen means they reproduce more successfully. haven’t watched the video yet, I’ll see if it mentions that.
The usage of chatbots in games has now become very common. There are videos about giving minecraft mobs sentience. Here’s one where they also added sound
They don’t look as trained as carykh’s spiders. They don’t feel the cold approaching? They’re slow?
Here’s some interesting natural phenomenon
And here’s some minecraft
