To know that there are those in the world of humanity, who in their generationally refined adherence to parasite coddling, will continue to teach the youth "drugs are a healthy and functional right of aware and intelligent people" is a mark of shame in this age of our collective development. The truth of human being betrayed by the proposed necessity of stimulation beyond the natural state, it's supposed normality vouchsafed; sobriety (health) ignored as a greater insanity than parasitism. Salve the wounded pride of the vulgar addict, crucify the outspoken advocate of reassessment. This is not a statement of conflict, rather a portrait of the true and natural order in it's biased equality (comfort belonging to those who crave it most).

I make my choices based on coin flips, it's honestly a really good system in my opinion. If you don't know which thing you want, just leave it up to chance. If you find yourself wanting one option more than the other, good job you made your decision.
@@drewmadenew3000 man, I love the contrast in tone as one guy is dumbfounded while the other guy is practically bursting with excitement but so subtle. A well acted scene, for sure...
You ever hear about that guy, who flipped a coin to decide whether or not he kills his family, or everyone he worked with.. it was tails, he went around his store blocked all exits brought two shotguns and killed everyone in the market store he worked at.. crazy sorry that just reminded me of that 😅
Excellent video, man. It's so refreshing to see other people thinking about the bigger picture. I don't know how you collected all this information, organized it and then presented it in such a cohesive fashion but I thank you for all the effort. This was truly enlightening.
The part about algorithms giving you videos of what you like IS videos that talk about confirmation bias, challenging beliefs, seeing the bigger picture etc. Essentially, all the stuff I already believe. Do I have confirmation bias about confirmation bias and seeing the bigger picture??? Or??? I challenge my beliefs but what about challenging, challenging my beliefs beliefs???? And what about challenging, challenging my beliefs beliefs beliefs??? 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫

@doomer2539 send it brother. I did the same. She ruined me in January. Time goes on, she remembers why she loved me in the first place, but I never forgot how she treated me and she ended up far more hurt than I was.
I love it honestly. Resonates very closely with what I was told by entity's on psychedelics. Were all a part of a god conciousness in some 9D matrix lol

This is the kind of video that’s kind of fun to watch for people who are curious and already know the ideas. It’s the kind of video you wish your friends would watch, but they just aren’t interested in reflection. It’s a fun ride regardless.
I know right it always suck to be the smartest asshole in the room, in my experiences iv found it quite difficult to find people who are actually interested in discussing interesting topics that are of some real value and expands your thinking and not just some horseshit like the Kardashians
@@andrewkline1906 what the hell did I say to deserve that? I wasn’t trying to be conceited I was just trying to say most people aren’t interested in this type of stuff. I used to be able to have my dad to talk to about existential things and philosophy till he died. If these things are what Jaden Smith talks about, then maybe I don’t know much about him. But as far as I know, I don’t think I like that kid.
I’m a fiber optic splicer/technician for the last 23 years and I have a newer coworker we all refer to as Dunning Kruger because he can extrapolate huge amounts of information from substandard data and then act with supreme confidence. I tend to fix a lot of things he’s worked on
Nostalgia can be tough as you age, I guess depending on how you look back. My brain wants to look back and miss all the different phases of my life, but 1) my brain ruminates on the bad parts and 2) I feel loss/depression about not being able to go back or experience it again.
Nostalgia is probably the worst thing in the world besides sadism and starvation. I was not a normal kid at all. I was BORN with death anxiety and dreaded every single birthday, dreading the end from the very beginning. I cried when I turned ten because I now had two digits in my age and I knew it was how many you usually have at death, never making it to three. I cried when I hit puberty. I cried when I realized I was taller than my mom. These events all hit like terminal cancer diagnoses and gave me literal trauma. By 14 I was more at peace with eventual death but I took that number the way most people tend to 30 or 40, that fear that youth is over and you really have to figure your life out. So imagine what "sweet 16" and "adult 18" felt like. No excitement whatsoever. Zero percent. Just such a weird and miserable child. But I think due to being this way, I have an aversion to nostalgia. I don't understand how it's bittersweet for some people. It's literally the worst emotional feeling I've ever experienced, bar none. What it really is, is the feeling of permanent loss of something good. When I think about the fact that it would by now be essentially impossible to recreate certain happy moments in my earlier life, it's so emotionally devastating that I have to start blocking it out so I don't become a danger to myself. I hate nostalgia. I would probably have a brain surgery that could prevent it. Seriously.
The Egg Theory really does resonate with me. I had a terrible hospital visit in 2017 in which I had died under surgury for 20 minutes. When I was gone, I had a sense of calming solitude in which nobody had greeted me or walked with me. I strongly believe that it was not my time and I was brought back for a reason, but with your explanation that everyone around is basically me but not really me is overwhelming. In the sesne that I could be the worst and best version of myself on different timelines. It's not a crazy idea but its worth taking note of.
Wow 20 minutes, interesting experience! Glad you're fine and had a revelation. I also had an NDE but it was in another context. Very calming and serene vibe but no people or anything actually. Most of people brought back have a certain role in the world, even if it might not make sense for them how is that. I also get sometimes spooked by that theory, because I think it might have a truth to it, but also more aspects that are not seen perceived clearly. And after all, if all is you in another form, death is an illusion and the yourney of knowing yourself inside and outside (in others) might be a pretty fascinating road, especially when there are other things that are there, but can be caught and disecated by humans in order to study it.
Every potential fluctuation your energy can take it's bound to do so.. it's very much physical law. Meaning any formation, any consciousness it could become it's bound to do so. There's nothing else that endless fluctuations of energy could mean other than all possibles occuring.
Dont find it overwhelming but peaceful as knowing that yourself is there to comfort and you dont walk alone. If we see it as ourself we will respect it more even though that is another energy on its life journey like you.
We share a cosmic consciousness, we are projecting ourselves in this reality in a physical form. Thus the consciousness we all share is just experiencing self
I thought life couldn't get worse when my fiancé died by suicide. I named my son after him and 16 years later, my son by the same name died by suicide. I am all too familiar with the black swan theory. I was the chicken carried to the slaughter house twice, but instead of at least ending my misery at the betrayal i have to live on in it.
Suck it up my darling you've come this far your a lioness not a chicken you are what you are from the moment your born its all lyed out in front of you all you have to do is live and live good and one day you'll go from a lioness to a beautiful angel
This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my UA-cam channel 9 months ago about self development. Now I have 1,649 subs and > 1k hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.
I've been listening to theories about philosophy for most of my life. I settled on believing that there is only one Soul, and it is not limited by time or space, and we are ALL reincarnations of the same person. It makes it easier to be decent, considering I'm also the other person in another life. It also explains why so many of the women I know have been Cleopatra.
How does it explain how horrible we are to each other tho. I haven’t watched the video yet but humans are pretty terrible. To each other to the planet to themselves to animals to everything… if we even had the smallest inkling we were amongst differing versions of a single self, why then would we behave like we do? I also agree with the morality comment. Morality is a social construct so without others to agree or disagree from differing perspectives how would we as a group ever come up with what we deemed right or wrong, and how do you explain all the evil in the world happening bc essentially you’re saying it’s you who is a pedo or a murderer or a r+pist if everyone on earth is you, it’s you doing all the bad things that happen every day and that’s kinda messed up. And what’s up w everyone thinking they were cleopatra 😂 I’ve heard that so many times esp with “past lives” people they’re always cleopatra like why her lol
I also believe this to be true, that I have been and will be.. everyone that has ever, or will exist. That many of us, or we, will never realize this, but whenever we do, it makes sense to treat each better, because we either were or will be them at some point.
It also goes hand in hand with the one photon theory, because every single photon is identical and there is a theory that it is one photon, everywhere and every time, at once
The ironic thing about you saying people don't like your voice is that I was sitting here watching at the start of the video thinking how great of a voice yours is for telling a story. I am not tired of your voice and have been subbed for a few years now, keep up the good work Aperture.
Starting off with the swan is brilliant. Black swan is next to the cave shadows story on understanding the core of philosophy. People focus too much on *a* philosophy, when we should always be questioning and 'trying' different views, forcing different biases on ourselves to better understand and be aware of them-rather than observing them through a looking glass; Which leads to said Black Swan.
One of Lincolns right-hand men was one that he vehemently disagreed with and was associated with the opposite party. Why? To keep himself in check. He listened the the opposing opinion of others as to not become caught in the echo chamber of his own mind.
@Badficwriter Hence why he said “whenever possible” instead of constantly; and put emphasis on the word reliance because you can only be so original, due to external influences. Also ye “co-opting”is about the same as learning
Keep in mind the act of deliberately ‘trying’ different perspectives ironically derives from a perspective; the perspective that trying different views is useful. Thus; have you ever really changed? Also there is no guarantee that changing perspective would bring you any closer to the truth. But there’s no good way of testing the veracity of any singular experience. We just measure them against each other and consider truth to be popular common opinion. Whatever makes you most comfortable I guess.
Thank you so much, you made me feel like I wasn't the only "weird" kid thinking of philosophy. I hope you don't feel the need to sell out. Your voice is so calming, and your articulation and eloquent speech make these videos incredible. Also, your visual/editing abilities are incredible! Thank you for what you do. Don't forget... "This is only temporary,"(no matter how good/bad it's an opportunity ment for growth. "Question everything," and "Seek discomfort".
The Krueger effect is something I’ve never heard of but experienced it for years without knowing. Especially in the car enthusiast world I usually stay quiet on certain subjects because I know how much there is to know but listening to others spew misinformation fascinates me.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is just so painful on so many levels... especially when it comes to discussions about religion. I taught logic courses for seven years, and when I see people making such flawed arguments for the existence of a god, and I try to challenge them on it, and they think that they know more than me but are making such obvious fallacies, it's painful. Some guy told me I didn't know how to "think cortically" because I broke out some basic formal logic to show him why what he said was not a valid argument. He claimed he was an expert philosopher and into apologetics but he didn't even know basic formal logic. 🤦♀ Knowing how much you don't know and then interacting with someone who knows far less than you but thinks that they're an expert is such a double whammy of mental anguish. It's like being smacked up on all sides. I think I'll adopt your strategy and just let them wallow in their misinformation and keep quiet. It isn't worth the frustration.
@@vorpal22 quantum physics has proven we exist cuz something is observing us from higher dimensions. none of the religions have it correct but to think there is a higher entity is true (but its just higher, purer consciousness, not an actual separate being).
@@CarefulHowYouStepIf being observed is a necessary condition for existence, then that thing from a higher dimension would also have to be observed, and that's just another formulation of the problem of infinite regress. As a result, I don't think we can take it as proven by quantum physics that something is observing us. Furthermore, a substantial number of quantum physicists are atheists (a considerably higher percentage than int the general population). I do appreciate your speculation, because I've spent a lot of time thinking about things like what you've said here, and even though I'm an atheist, I am a philosophical Taoist as well, although Taoism is rather panentheistic and doesn't imbue a sense of consciousness onto Tao. The analogy I like to use for consciousness the way I think about it is like a mushroom colony: a mushroom colony consists of a large underground mycelial network that produces mushrooms which produce spores and then decay or are consumed. The mushrooms can simultaneously be considered individual things, but also part of the greater whole. Every conscious living being is like a mushroom. Of course, that's all completely speculative and at best an imperfect analogy, and we don't even have an agreed upon definition of consciousness. Many scientists believe that consciousness is an emergent property of sufficiently complex computation amongst neurons. (See the consciousness hypotheses of materialism and emergentism.)
I see it in people all the time. I know I'm an idiot, but for instance I talk often with a guy at work about firearms and notably he called himself a gun guy, while I said I know next to nothing about them. But the topic of personal protection came up for bear attacks, and another friend recommended a 10mm hand gun and the so called gun guy said the 10mm was a bad choice because he had seen a video of it not penetrating a bear skull. However if he had done his research almost everyone recommended a 10mm I found, even some 9mm because it was more about what your comfortable with and not what size caliber the gun was.
So, it was due to Dunning Kruger effect. Previously, i thought i was above most people but now i doubt on everything. Despite getting 8.24 gpa out of 10 in engineering i thought I was not qualified to work when below average students were doing fine. Recently i was preparing for PTE examination and before giving i was not too confident and also after giving it, I was only expecting 65-70 points but when the result came, I was surprised that I got overall 90 which is the highest marks one can obtain and that too is only obtained by less than 10 people maybe in country, and still, I am not too confident in my English.
Honestly Aperture is my go to for logging out of the system. You make processing information enjoyable and understandable for everyone. You are making a dent in society even though you may not think so... Thank you for helping us Re plant our routes
I think Socrates "I know that I know nothing" or thereabouts is a pretty profound thing. Sort of a motto to live by. You can know enough to get by in our experienced reality but being wise is knowing that our 'knowledge' may simply be "good enough for government work"
The pursuit of knowledge is never ending. Always loved the phrase "the more you've found, the less you've been around". to me its always meant that every time we learn something new, it opens our minds to a whole new world of questions to ask and mysteries to solve. As we learn, more and more we realize just how little we know. love it
16:13 Correction: Electrons aren't made from leptons, they ARE leptons. The leptons is the group of particles that includes the electron, the muon and the tauon/tau particle, and their 3 respective neutrinos. Leptons are all fundamental; they are point particles, not made of smaller particles(at least as far as we know right now.
@@trteeerryfse-wy2ww Really? I thought the narrator just misspoke or something. Leptons are just as fundamental as quarks. If you look at the standard model diagram, there is a block of 6 quarks, and below that a block of 6 leptons, which includes the electron (quarks and leptons also all have anti-particles as well). Only hadrons are made up of quarks. The hadrons include the baryons and mesons. Baryons are made up of 3 quarks, so neutrons and protons are baryons. And mesons are made up of 2 quarks, a quark + an anti-quark. I think there are also particles that have been measured that are made up of 4 quarks, the tetraquark, or even 5 quarks.
That bit about the chicken really struck fear into me, "oh my god why am I here" "where is my owner" "I was so sure that he loved me", what if we are all just chickens in some slaughterhouse we can't comprehend, where we are given a grace period before eventually being taken away by what we perceive as our bodies failing, only for something to happen that blows our minds and makes us scared and angry that we can't tell ones who are living about it. This somehow doesn't make me feel bad for chickens.
In Aperture's light, my heart takes flight, A UA-cam channel that feels just right. With every video they share, Joy and gratitude fill the air. In pixels and sound, a world unfolds, A treasure trove of stories told. From laughter's embrace to lessons deep, Their content, a promise to always keep. Through screens, they touch the core of me, Spreading happiness like waves at sea. A beacon of light in times so gray, Aperture's magic brightens my day. Grateful I am for each piece they create, For the smiles they bring, the connections they make. In this digital realm, a haven of cheer, Aperture's channel makes life so clear.
I heard that Egg theory a long time ago when I was a teen. It totally changed how I think. It made so much sense to me that I was prepared to follow this philosophy or religion. I can easily emphasize with people because they are me. It also made sense why some people are evil and some are kind and understanding, those evil people are the version of me who was still in the early stage of conception, they don't know much but themselves. Those kinder versions of me are the more matured ones who reached a reasonable point of enlightenment. It also aligned with buddhism's "We are One" and Christian's "Do to your neighbors what you want to be done unto you"...makes me wonder what if Jesus was our final Form? He did ascend with his reincarnated body
I’m happy to see so many people reference the egg theory segment. I would love it if you spliced it and posted it as a separate video. Content creators post videos titled “you should watch this every morning” to refer to some practice or some notion that would make you more aware of your own being and help you to live your day with intention. I believe this segment, given its own space, would be one of those videos. It says just about everything I have come to understand about spiritual teaching and existential thinking. Great overall video. I enjoy all of the concepts you have presented and the concise explanation and brief history given to each one.
@@Crossfire2000 Plus why would anyone watch that stoopid fiction every morning? What kind of idiotic advice is that? To relentlessly brainwash themselves into new-agey stupidity?
Wow...😮 "This is the strangest life I've ever known..." - Jim Morrison This was brain candy. Loved every thought-provoking minute of it. Thank you, Aperture Man!
Finally ! Philosophical and (pseudo-)scientific approval for all those who believe they are THE reincarnation of Jim Morrison. Now don't you start to fight amongst each other, kids. Each and every one of you has been Jim. One at a time. Or is it all at the same time? Gosh, have I been that drunk, psychopoetic spewing bastard too ?! Our lord has strange guests indeed... 😁 Don't be disconcerted. I was also fascinated by Jim Morrison's poetry when I (and Jim) was younger. Unfortunately, as alcohol took more and more possession of Jim's mind, the quality and depth of his poetry deteriorated precipitously. And not just his poetry. It is an old saying : the shortest of fires burn brightest.
I work in medicine. 90% of patients were married just once, for life. Partner of 50-60 yrs died. Had 5 kids, they all live their lives and ultimately only return to ask for money. These frail old plp sacrificed their life as a provider. They're rewarded with nothing. Just abandoned all year, barring bday and Christmas. They're so miserable. They blame the care home for the misery. But we both know the truth. Their loved ones left them. It's so cruel. It's such a common story, I decided not to marry or have kids. Sometimes, one childless offspring will do a weekly visit to the elderly relative. They're usually on bad terms with their siblings. I see this constantly. I have to interact with the patient or their kids. I'm meant to be there for the medicine management, but constantly witness this horrible end-of-life abandonment. No one talks about this last 10 years.
The past three years have shown us that there are those who will adapt the truth as it reveals itself, and those who will be told to hate us for doing so.
8:20 - People "Can you spare some money?" Rich: Why don't you earn some money on the stock market Peasants!

Government forces people to sell back the stock they purchased.
What if drugs are just a way for humans to connect with the universe and that "good feeling" is just us being interconnected with our love that is our universe? I mean the same chemical reaction when we fall in love happens when we get high which is why people that are high, get addicted. They're not addicted to the drug itself, no... They're addicted to that feeling of what feels like love...
@@supayambaekeffects of synthetic drugs are usually extremely bad for the user. A lot of natural psychodelic substances usually don't have much of a drawback unless you have some form of pre existing mental instability and have a really bad trip.
I have just finished reading 'Antifragile' , Talebs own answer to the uncertainty he unvovered with his Black Swan Theory. I can highly recommend it, not only is it truly fascinating and enriching in a practical, heuristic, kind of way. It is entertaining. Taleb got a great and fun to read writing style
I knew most other children didn't like me growing up, but it never occurred to me to try to do anything about. I didn't change for them bc it never occurred to me to care about anything from anyone else's perspective but mine.
The egg theory is my absolute favourite theory. I didn't see or hear anything about it online until a month or so ago, but for years, since I was a little kid, almost every detail of egg theory has been solid belief in my mind. I remember wandering around the woods by myself wondering if we all see the same colours, if we all experience life the same, if we reincarnat back in time, and nobody told me to think it, I just did. And it felt so real. It makes sense. And once I found out other people have actually thought it for a long time, it made it feel a lot more special. It's just cool
I can relate to you about having those same questions about the universe and death while my friends didn't have that same curiosity so I just grew up holding it in only letting little bits out when others were talking about it and even then I would be careful what I would say in fear of what other people would think
Another thing about the billionaire part of the Black Swan Theory - how much of the success of the companies billionaires create is really their doing, and how much is the aggregate work of thousands of lower-paid employees?
they're kinda like queen ants, but instead of birthing the workers in a mutually beneficial relationship they underpay them and take 90% of what they do
Everything - they had to hire the right people, invest in the right areas, make the right decisions, take on all the risk and NOT sell at 1, 10 or 100 million. Just because you need employees to function does not attribute the success of that company to it’s employees. Those employees don’t control the company. They are essentially just a resource, similar to machinery and materials. Cogs in a wheel.
I actually find your voice calming!! If I ever met you I’d probably fall asleep because that’s what I have been doing to fall asleep for the past month or so
This, hands down, is the best video I’ve watched. It’s the sort of video you can return to countless times to investigate or refresh your insight - and it’s also the sort of thing that scratches the itch SO WELL for curious and questioning beans like us. I find myself nodding and smiling at various things you say in this. I feel a part of it! What a fabulously constructed piece. BIG FAN!
I think that public knowledge of the Dunning-Kruger effect has effected the hypothesis. Now that knowledgable people understand that they typically underestimate themselves, they've started getting an understanding on how much they really know in comparison to those who don't understand whatever the subject is. Now when someone thinks they know a lot, it really could go either way
My estimate would be only 5-10% of the knowledgeable people have self-awareness about their worth. And even then, most of them are in communities that consist of others similar to them, so they end up with an overestimation of the world as a whole. I could be completely wrong, but this is what I believe.
Ostracization is an efficient but hard to use tool. On one hand, it's used as a tool to defend against specific types of people. On the other hand, it can easily be manipulated as a weapon to attack people. After a certain point, it becomes hurtful rather than helpful.
The only philosophical strand that is useful everytime in every situation is so called stoicism. I was stoic as a child and a teenager. People got disturbed by that. They thought I was being rude and even useless. Glad I was which had me never been forced to indulge in anything I would have regretted anyway. I had no frame of explanation except I simply had been there. And now I know about stoicism I have a word,maybe even some sentences to describe my inner self. But what really does it mean to anyone? Nothing. Philosphy is no more an inner monologue to help yourself to get out of mental trenches. Now it is a mass marketed tool to stimulate people in certain ways. In the ancient days it was a mere moment of distraction from everyday chores when a "philosopher" spoke in the market place. It was a brief moment of relieve. Today it seems so damning necessary that one must have read this and that to be held accountable and seen as a professional. Philosophy however was never meant to be a profession. It was never meant to become what we today have made of it. Philosophy means to reflect before you act. It means to be aware what is going on and how you can react in a better way. In that sense there is no such greatest philosophical theory I need to attach myself to.
Something strange just happened to me so I will share. My Dads birthday is today Sept 2 1934…he would have been 89. Starting my day thinking of him I went to the corner store. My total was 19.94 …the year he died. Almost 30 years ago. While thinking of him already because it is the day he was born as soon I heard the total 19.94 the year he died kinda tripped me out. Was he saying Hi to me or letting me know he was with me in some way? Or was it just a coincidence? I’m gonna think he is just saying Hi. 👍🏼🌎☀️💙…I really needed this video today…thank you
This is my first time seeing one of your videos and honestly man it really helped. I feel like I can relate a lot to what you had to say and often feel that I am the only one who has deeper questions like this and have no one to talk to about it. After watching this I feel more confident in who I am and these questions I ask myself. Thanks man and I look forward to watching more of your videos
Wow. Absolutely brilliant brother really well done ! cutting edge, hard hitting, and inspiring. Yeah the egg theory blew my mind too ! I watched this in 3 parts over 3 nights. Looking forward to the next 1. I came up with a saying '' what you teach is what you most need to learn "' after I started noticing the Dunning-Kruger effect a few years ago . Truly great doco thanks !
I like the analogy to an effervescent tablet in a glass of water to describe a massively black hole that dissipates over time. First time hearing that and finally something clicked in my mind. Thank you! 😊
I’m big on knowing the correct information before spouting off verbal diarrhea. I tell my kids all the time if you don’t know something then look it up because nothing is worse than someone who thinks they know what they’re talking about and they clearly don’t. It’s so easy to look up information in today’s world and there’s no reason not to, but I also tell them to be careful of where you’re getting your information from because that could be just as bad as speaking without knowing what you’re talking about, talking with incorrect information.
In this speculative scenario, let's consider Leibniz's Monad (first emanation of God), from the philosophical work "The Monadology", as an abstract representation of the zero-dimensional space that binds quarks together with the Strong Nuclear Force: 1) Indivisibility and Unity: Monads, as indivisible entities, mirror the nature of quarks, which are deemed elementary and indivisible particles in our theoretical context. Just as monads possess unity and indivisibility, quarks are unified in their interactions through the Strong Nuclear Force. 2) Interconnectedness: In the Monadology, monads are interconnected in a vast network. In a parallel manner, the interconnectedness of quarks through the strong force could be metaphorically represented by the interplay of monads, forming a web that holds particles together. 3) Inherent Properties: Just as monads possess inherent perceptions and appetitions, quarks could be thought of as having intrinsic properties like color charge, reflecting the inherent qualities of monads and influencing their interactions. 4) Harmony: The concept of monads contributing to universal harmony resonates with the idea that the Strong Nuclear Force maintains harmony within atomic nuclei by counteracting the electromagnetic repulsion between protons, allowing for the stability of matter. 5) Pre-established Harmony: Monads' pre-established harmony aligns with the idea that the strong force was pre-designed to ensure stable interactions among quarks, orchestrating their behavior in a way that parallels the harmony envisaged by Leibniz. 6) Non-Mechanical Interaction: Monads interact non-mechanically, mirroring the non-mechanical interactions of quarks through gluon exchange. This connection might be seen as a metaphorical reflection of the intricacies of quark-gluon dynamics. 7) Holism: The holistic perspective of monads could symbolize how quarks, like the monads' interconnections, contribute holistically to the structure and behavior of particles through the strong force interactions. em·a·na·tion noun an abstract but perceptible thing that issues or originates from a source.
[2D is not the center of the universe, 0D is the center of the mirror universe]: The mirror universe theory is based on the concept of parity violation, which was discovered in the 1950s. Parity violation refers to the observation that certain processes in particle physics don't behave the same way when their coordinates are reversed. This discovery led to the idea that there might be a mirror image of our universe where particles and their properties are flipped. In this mirror universe, the fundamental particles that make up matter, such as electrons, protons, and neutrinos, would have their charges reversed. For example, in our universe, electrons have a negative charge, but in the mirror universe, they might have a positive charge. Furthermore, another aspect of the mirror universe theory involves chirality, which refers to the property of particles behaving differently from their mirror images. In our universe, particles have a certain handedness or chirality, but in the mirror universe, this chirality could be reversed. Quantum mechanics is more compatible with Leibniz's relational view of the universe than Newton's absolute view of the universe. In Newton's absolute view, space and time are absolute and independent entities that exist on their own, independent of the objects and events that take place within them. This view implies that there is a privileged observer who can observe the universe from a neutral and objective perspective. On the other hand, Leibniz's relational view holds that space and time are not absolute, but are instead relational concepts that are defined by the relationships between objects and events in the universe. This view implies that there is no privileged observer and that observations are always made from a particular point of view. Quantum mechanics is more compatible with the relational view because it emphasizes the role of observers and the context of measurement in determining the properties of particles. In quantum mechanics, the properties of particles are not absolute, but are instead defined by their relationships with other particles and the measuring apparatus. This means that observations are always made from a particular point of view and that there is no neutral and objective perspective. Overall, quantum mechanics suggests that the universe is fundamentally relational rather than absolute, and is therefore more compatible with Leibniz's relational view than Newton's absolute view. What are the two kinds of truth according to Leibniz? There are two kinds of truths, those of reasoning and those of fact. Truths of fact are contingent and their opposite is possible. Truths of reasoning are necessary and their opposite is impossible. What is the difference between Newton and Leibniz calculus? Newton's calculus is about functions. Leibniz's calculus is about relations defined by constraints. In Newton's calculus, there is (what would now be called) a limit built into every operation. In Leibniz's calculus, the limit is a separate operation. What are the arguments against Leibniz? Critics of Leibniz argue that the world contains an amount of suffering too great to permit belief in philosophical optimism. The claim that we live in the best of all possible worlds drew scorn most notably from Voltaire, who lampooned it in his comic novella Candide.
I like your opinions on subjects I've often pondered about . I like the editing. I like your candour...I like the voice on my phone speaker . I like your research . I like the subtle ambience and the visuals are so on point it is like an ai did it 👌 👍 👏 🙏🙏
I would not want our most vulnerable aspects floating around in that hellish expanse just to be picked up by some opportunistic warlords from Andromeda and used to conquer our descendants lol. Maybe a little bit of jazz and classical will be enough to get on good terms with whoever is out there.
This content is an ideal form of what humanity could be, not what we are. It would be disingenuous to imply we are that enlightened as a whole. Most of us are still stuck in paleolithic thought processes.
All I have to say is damn one of the best UA-cam videos I've seen in years straight to the point and very articulate and personal and mind opening I don't usually think about these subjects but the second I started watching I was sucked in...
53:40 this is exactly how I feel now, and I’m glad I can watch the videos on your channel to think about these deep topics. I know I’m different from others, and to be honest I don’t mind, because learning and thinking is the more satisfying thing to do.
Imagine if we got to live twice while remembering the first life. I wonder if we would do any better? And why do you have to die to do better in that second life? Why can't the second life start right now?
No. Because you're not finished doing what you're supposed to do in this life yet. Or learning what you needed to learn. We're supposed to be on a journey toward becoming enlightened. And to progress forward toward that ultimate goal with each life we live.
So much to ponder. Amazed at just how many hours of effort must be on display here. Thank YOU for taking your vision to a platform where viewers are challanged to think for themsleves. Suggest adding more defined breaks. There is so much that it can be overwhelming.
These videos are very high quality. The constant commercials make the content borderline unwatchable without an add blocker. I get that creators want to get paid but there's a point where it's just overkill.
For the Dunning-Kruger effect, it is in my personal belief that we should forget comparisons entirely and focus solely on achieving our goals. We don't really need to know how much better or worse we are compared to everyone else.
Dunning-Kruger is just a name scientists like to apply to lay people who ask them for actual evidence for their pet theories. Ironically, it is scientists who are more susceptible to it.
I would have to disagree. We should be focusing on improving ourselves, yes, but comparing yourself to others can humble you if you're overconfident, and help you realize you're special if you're underconfident. It depends on your mindset about it.
@@cobracoder6123 That's the thing. You shouldn't compare at all. What's it to you if someone else is better or worse? How does that help you, if at all? Unless you've got a massive competitive spirit, it doesn't mean jack shit. You don't need to know you're special, you don't need to know you're overconfident. Your goals are what is most important, always. Anyways, if you can't compare yourself without risking yourself major distress, or gaining an overinflated ego, you shouldn't compare yourself at all. Focus on your own individual growth.
i agree, but it is in our very nature to compare ourselves to others, its a average, or standard, or norm --- aka a mirror. Without it, we wouldn't know ourselves. We would have no unit of measure. Without a mirror are we even real? Do we even exist, are we the tree in the forest no one hears?
I agree. Rather than comparing myself to others, I compare my present self with my past self. How have I improved? Am I reaching my goals? Do I need to make more changes to become a better version of myself? I can’t possibly use another person as a mirror for myself. We are different. I want to look into a mirror and like what I see. I want to be the person my future self will be proud of.

I thought existential dread was a given if having adhd. It certainly has always given me courage to swim upstream so to speak. My mother was very doting with her praise of my individuality. She would say “i admire how you are not afraid to be yourself ever.” That likely helps.
My issue with the black swan theory is anything bad or surprising or unfair, fails to reach any of my expectations. I grew up as an overly curious, anxious child who still managed to be naive & optimistic. I questioned every evil or pain I heard or experienced, letting my expectations of bad turn into an extreme. At 9-10 years old, I convinced myself that I had to hide the abuse I experienced, I hid self harm, I didn't truly trust anyone after someone I thought could have all my trust slowly manipulated my trust into a weapon. My curious, damaged mind started to view the worst events we're aware of not anything close to the worst. Even now I'm unable to view things for positive change. To me, Covid was nothing compared the plagues & torture that feeds my infected brain.
so thats good? U now know you’ve been so down in rock bottom, theres only one way ⬆️. I felt like u for some time, Until My mom passed away, suddenly. Until then, I thought the abuse I encountered as a child was the most painful and traumatic experience, the separation from my mother who was my best friend and teacher of unconditional love and forgiveness has by far been the hardest. Since then, other people in my family who I truly loved passed- but It wasnt as bad for me in compromising to my other pain. Same goes for anything else really, anything could happen and its not as bad. Theres a beauty even in that darkness, that release or lost of fear that “something terrible will haopen and I cannot handle it” because u know you’ve already been through the worst. A freedom that comes with accepting rock bottom and not resisting. Thats when the birth process starts; with every death (death of innocence, death of old self/ healing traumas, death of loved ones) theres a birth ♾ and its our choice to allow it to take place OR resist it and stay in the fear. I already been thought the death, might as well allow the birth of whats to come.
I’m not quite sure how to put my feelings into words right now. All I can say is thank you. You’ve given me a taste of what I’ve been craving for so long. I didn’t know how badly I needed to know that it’s perfect to not know, to want to know is all that matters. Thank you to whoever is behind these videos because for just an hour I’ve felt a peace I hadn’t felt before. I hope you find that all the little things go right the first time around. :)
The thing about nostalgia has really messed me up. I just understood that I never had the time to make peace with the rapid change I went through. Il definitely start accepting it from today and hopefully feel less miserable about myself. Thank you for the wonderful video. It was worth listening to ❤
The dunning-kruger effect is interesting. I accept my role and my knowledge is next to nothing compared to the grand sceme of things. Down to the so called language i type here for other human beings, it itself a word our species developed to define well, us i am always trying to learn more. Life is so small and my impact is and will be nothing so i try to learn. As much as possible
And ironically, this is exactly the kind of hubris that the Dunning-Kruger effect is talking about - in the words of a Pharisee, “God, I thank you that I am not like other men . . .”
Thank goodness you didn't know what you didn't know and started the channel ...always interesting always learn somthing. Just wanted to say thanks for what you do.

I have zero clues what your long videos are about. The past 2 days I've just had em play at night and had the nicest dreams once I fell asleep. So thanks?
i remember reading the egg theory on an instagram post of a tumblr blog, and it absolutely blew my mind, i was chuckling thinking about the post for minutes after i read it, to the point that my family thought i was growing crazy. it kicked off my love for interesting philosophical theories, and is a part of the reason im watching this video right now.
I would say that nostalgia is an important part of reproduction and nurturing. In wanting to remake the happy childhood memories, you revisit places that will create good memories for your children. It also encourages good parenting for the same reasons. It's a key empathy that transcends the generations. Human nature comes with that urge to want to share what made us happy... or even sad, sometimes.
The fundamental desire to be understood can be the underlying factor in wanting to share. Because if the person you are sharing with has the same reaction it will tighten your bond and give you a better sense of belonging from being understood. I think the core aspect of every "non-survival mode" desire is just wanting to be understood or wanting to understand others, and from that comes the strengthened bond or reassurances and whathaveyou,
Thank you for your great video. You are an oasis of thinking amongst rubbish ideas and trends. I hope there are many people listening or viewing your qualitative work.

Nostalgia can be tough as you age, I guess depending on how you look back. My brain wants to look back and miss all the different phases of my life, but 1) my brain ruminates on the bad parts and 2) I feel loss/depression about not being able to go back or experience it again.
i wish i knew how to cope with this
@@heroinfathr I think the battle is positive vs negative self talk, very challenging.
Nostalgia is probably the worst thing in the world besides sadism and starvation. I was not a normal kid at all. I was BORN with death anxiety and dreaded every single birthday, dreading the end from the very beginning. I cried when I turned ten because I now had two digits in my age and I knew it was how many you usually have at death, never making it to three. I cried when I hit puberty. I cried when I realized I was taller than my mom. These events all hit like terminal cancer diagnoses and gave me literal trauma. By 14 I was more at peace with eventual death but I took that number the way most people tend to 30 or 40, that fear that youth is over and you really have to figure your life out. So imagine what "sweet 16" and "adult 18" felt like. No excitement whatsoever. Zero percent. Just such a weird and miserable child.
But I think due to being this way, I have an aversion to nostalgia. I don't understand how it's bittersweet for some people. It's literally the worst emotional feeling I've ever experienced, bar none. What it really is, is the feeling of permanent loss of something good. When I think about the fact that it would by now be essentially impossible to recreate certain happy moments in my earlier life, it's so emotionally devastating that I have to start blocking it out so I don't become a danger to myself. I hate nostalgia. I would probably have a brain surgery that could prevent it. Seriously.

The Egg Theory really does resonate with me. I had a terrible hospital visit in 2017 in which I had died under surgury for 20 minutes. When I was gone, I had a sense of calming solitude in which nobody had greeted me or walked with me. I strongly believe that it was not my time and I was brought back for a reason, but with your explanation that everyone around is basically me but not really me is overwhelming. In the sesne that I could be the worst and best version of myself on different timelines. It's not a crazy idea but its worth taking note of.
Wow 20 minutes, interesting experience! Glad you're fine and had a revelation. I also had an NDE but it was in another context. Very calming and serene vibe but no people or anything actually. Most of people brought back have a certain role in the world, even if it might not make sense for them how is that. I also get sometimes spooked by that theory, because I think it might have a truth to it, but also more aspects that are not seen perceived clearly. And after all, if all is you in another form, death is an illusion and the yourney of knowing yourself inside and outside (in others) might be a pretty fascinating road, especially when there are other things that are there, but can be caught and disecated by humans in order to study it.
Every potential fluctuation your energy can take it's bound to do so.. it's very much physical law. Meaning any formation, any consciousness it could become it's bound to do so. There's nothing else that endless fluctuations of energy could mean other than all possibles occuring.
Dont find it overwhelming but peaceful as knowing that yourself is there to comfort and you dont walk alone. If we see it as ourself we will respect it more even though that is another energy on its life journey like you.
Didn't you see any heaven or hell or god or divine stuff?
We share a cosmic consciousness, we are projecting ourselves in this reality in a physical form. Thus the consciousness we all share is just experiencing self
I thought life couldn't get worse when my fiancé died by suicide. I named my son after him and 16 years later, my son by the same name died by suicide. I am all too familiar with the black swan theory. I was the chicken carried to the slaughter house twice, but instead of at least ending my misery at the betrayal i have to live on in it.
Thank you for sharing your story, I hope you continue to keep going through all the challenges life puts you through ❤

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my UA-cam channel 9 months ago about self development. Now I have 1,649 subs and > 1k hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.
I've been listening to theories about philosophy for most of my life. I settled on believing that there is only one Soul, and it is not limited by time or space, and we are ALL reincarnations of the same person. It makes it easier to be decent, considering I'm also the other person in another life. It also explains why so many of the women I know have been Cleopatra.
Morality is subjective though. How do you know how to be decent?
My wife had a dream that she was Cleopatra, and she didn't know who she was or anything about her previously.
Your comment kinda freaked me out.
How does it explain how horrible we are to each other tho. I haven’t watched the video yet but humans are pretty terrible. To each other to the planet to themselves to animals to everything… if we even had the smallest inkling we were amongst differing versions of a single self, why then would we behave like we do?
I also agree with the morality comment. Morality is a social construct so without others to agree or disagree from differing perspectives how would we as a group ever come up with what we deemed right or wrong, and how do you explain all the evil in the world happening bc essentially you’re saying it’s you who is a pedo or a murderer or a r+pist if everyone on earth is you, it’s you doing all the bad things that happen every day and that’s kinda messed up.
And what’s up w everyone thinking they were cleopatra 😂 I’ve heard that so many times esp with “past lives” people they’re always cleopatra like why her lol
I also believe this to be true, that I have been and will be.. everyone that has ever, or will exist. That many of us, or we, will never realize this, but whenever we do, it makes sense to treat each better, because we either were or will be them at some point.
It also goes hand in hand with the one photon theory, because every single photon is identical and there is a theory that it is one photon, everywhere and every time, at once
The ironic thing about you saying people don't like your voice is that I was sitting here watching at the start of the video thinking how great of a voice yours is for telling a story. I am not tired of your voice and have been subbed for a few years now, keep up the good work Aperture.

His voice and delivery reminds me of Rod Serling
Starting off with the swan is brilliant. Black swan is next to the cave shadows story on understanding the core of philosophy. People focus too much on *a* philosophy, when we should always be questioning and 'trying' different views, forcing different biases on ourselves to better understand and be aware of them-rather than observing them through a looking glass; Which leads to said Black Swan.
One of Lincolns right-hand men was one that he vehemently disagreed with and was associated with the opposite party. Why? To keep himself in check. He listened the the opposing opinion of others as to not become caught in the echo chamber of his own mind.
@@CEO_of_Unpopular_Opinions It is impossible to not be influenced by other mindsets. What you guys call 'co-opting' might also be called 'learning'.
@Badficwriter Hence why he said “whenever possible” instead of constantly; and put emphasis on the word reliance because you can only be so original, due to external influences. Also ye “co-opting”is about the same as learning
Keep in mind the act of deliberately ‘trying’ different perspectives ironically derives from a perspective; the perspective that trying different views is useful. Thus; have you ever really changed?
Also there is no guarantee that changing perspective would bring you any closer to the truth. But there’s no good way of testing the veracity of any singular experience. We just measure them against each other and consider truth to be popular common opinion. Whatever makes you most comfortable I guess.

The Krueger effect is something I’ve never heard of but experienced it for years without knowing. Especially in the car enthusiast world I usually stay quiet on certain subjects because I know how much there is to know but listening to others spew misinformation fascinates me.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is just so painful on so many levels... especially when it comes to discussions about religion. I taught logic courses for seven years, and when I see people making such flawed arguments for the existence of a god, and I try to challenge them on it, and they think that they know more than me but are making such obvious fallacies, it's painful. Some guy told me I didn't know how to "think cortically" because I broke out some basic formal logic to show him why what he said was not a valid argument. He claimed he was an expert philosopher and into apologetics but he didn't even know basic formal logic. 🤦♀
Knowing how much you don't know and then interacting with someone who knows far less than you but thinks that they're an expert is such a double whammy of mental anguish. It's like being smacked up on all sides.
I think I'll adopt your strategy and just let them wallow in their misinformation and keep quiet. It isn't worth the frustration.
@@vorpal22 quantum physics has proven we exist cuz something is observing us from higher dimensions. none of the religions have it correct but to think there is a higher entity is true (but its just higher, purer consciousness, not an actual separate being).
@@CarefulHowYouStepIf being observed is a necessary condition for existence, then that thing from a higher dimension would also have to be observed, and that's just another formulation of the problem of infinite regress. As a result, I don't think we can take it as proven by quantum physics that something is observing us. Furthermore, a substantial number of quantum physicists are atheists (a considerably higher percentage than int the general population).
I do appreciate your speculation, because I've spent a lot of time thinking about things like what you've said here, and even though I'm an atheist, I am a philosophical Taoist as well, although Taoism is rather panentheistic and doesn't imbue a sense of consciousness onto Tao.
The analogy I like to use for consciousness the way I think about it is like a mushroom colony: a mushroom colony consists of a large underground mycelial network that produces mushrooms which produce spores and then decay or are consumed. The mushrooms can simultaneously be considered individual things, but also part of the greater whole. Every conscious living being is like a mushroom.
Of course, that's all completely speculative and at best an imperfect analogy, and we don't even have an agreed upon definition of consciousness. Many scientists believe that consciousness is an emergent property of sufficiently complex computation amongst neurons. (See the consciousness hypotheses of materialism and emergentism.)
I see it in people all the time. I know I'm an idiot, but for instance I talk often with a guy at work about firearms and notably he called himself a gun guy, while I said I know next to nothing about them. But the topic of personal protection came up for bear attacks, and another friend recommended a 10mm hand gun and the so called gun guy said the 10mm was a bad choice because he had seen a video of it not penetrating a bear skull. However if he had done his research almost everyone recommended a 10mm I found, even some 9mm because it was more about what your comfortable with and not what size caliber the gun was.
So, it was due to Dunning Kruger effect. Previously, i thought i was above most people but now i doubt on everything. Despite getting 8.24 gpa out of 10 in engineering i thought I was not qualified to work when below average students were doing fine. Recently i was preparing for PTE examination and before giving i was not too confident and also after giving it, I was only expecting 65-70 points but when the result came, I was surprised that I got overall 90 which is the highest marks one can obtain and that too is only obtained by less than 10 people maybe in country, and still, I am not too confident in my English.

Only hadrons are made up of quarks. The hadrons include the baryons and mesons. Baryons are made up of 3 quarks, so neutrons and protons are baryons. And mesons are made up of 2 quarks, a quark + an anti-quark. I think there are also particles that have been measured that are made up of 4 quarks, the tetraquark, or even 5 quarks.

I heard that Egg theory a long time ago when I was a teen. It totally changed how I think. It made so much sense to me that I was prepared to follow this philosophy or religion. I can easily emphasize with people because they are me. It also made sense why some people are evil and some are kind and understanding, those evil people are the version of me who was still in the early stage of conception, they don't know much but themselves. Those kinder versions of me are the more matured ones who reached a reasonable point of enlightenment. It also aligned with buddhism's "We are One" and Christian's "Do to your neighbors what you want to be done unto you"...makes me wonder what if Jesus was our final Form? He did ascend with his reincarnated body

I’m happy to see so many people reference the egg theory segment. I would love it if you spliced it and posted it as a separate video. Content creators post videos titled “you should watch this every morning” to refer to some practice or some notion that would make you more aware of your own being and help you to live your day with intention. I believe this segment, given its own space, would be one of those videos. It says just about everything I have come to understand about spiritual teaching and existential thinking. Great overall video. I enjoy all of the concepts you have presented and the concise explanation and brief history given to each one.

I work in medicine. 90% of patients were married just once, for life. Partner of 50-60 yrs died. Had 5 kids, they all live their lives and ultimately only return to ask for money. These frail old plp sacrificed their life as a provider. They're rewarded with nothing. Just abandoned all year, barring bday and Christmas. They're so miserable.
They blame the care home for the misery. But we both know the truth. Their loved ones left them. It's so cruel.
It's such a common story, I decided not to marry or have kids.
Sometimes, one childless offspring will do a weekly visit to the elderly relative. They're usually on bad terms with their siblings. I see this constantly. I have to interact with the patient or their kids. I'm meant to be there for the medicine management, but constantly witness this horrible end-of-life abandonment.
No one talks about this last 10 years.

I knew most other children didn't like me growing up, but it never occurred to me to try to do anything about.
I didn't change for them bc it never occurred to me to care about anything from anyone else's perspective but mine.
The egg theory is my absolute favourite theory. I didn't see or hear anything about it online until a month or so ago, but for years, since I was a little kid, almost every detail of egg theory has been solid belief in my mind. I remember wandering around the woods by myself wondering if we all see the same colours, if we all experience life the same, if we reincarnat back in time, and nobody told me to think it, I just did. And it felt so real. It makes sense. And once I found out other people have actually thought it for a long time, it made it feel a lot more special. It's just cool
The egg theory perfectly encompasses what I've believed for years. One of the episodes of The Midnight Gospel does a good job at this too~

Another thing about the billionaire part of the Black Swan Theory - how much of the success of the companies billionaires create is really their doing, and how much is the aggregate work of thousands of lower-paid employees?
hint, one of the foundational ideas behind marxism. Labor creates value.
And chance.
they're kinda like queen ants, but instead of birthing the workers in a mutually beneficial relationship they underpay them and take 90% of what they do
Stock Apple ID profile picture lmao
Everything - they had to hire the right people, invest in the right areas, make the right decisions, take on all the risk and NOT sell at 1, 10 or 100 million. Just because you need employees to function does not attribute the success of that company to it’s employees. Those employees don’t control the company. They are essentially just a resource, similar to machinery and materials. Cogs in a wheel.

I think that public knowledge of the Dunning-Kruger effect has effected the hypothesis. Now that knowledgable people understand that they typically underestimate themselves, they've started getting an understanding on how much they really know in comparison to those who don't understand whatever the subject is. Now when someone thinks they know a lot, it really could go either way
My estimate would be only 5-10% of the knowledgeable people have self-awareness about their worth. And even then, most of them are in communities that consist of others similar to them, so they end up with an overestimation of the world as a whole. I could be completely wrong, but this is what I believe.

Ostracization is an efficient but hard to use tool.
On one hand, it's used as a tool to defend against specific types of people.
On the other hand, it can easily be manipulated as a weapon to attack people.
After a certain point, it becomes hurtful rather than helpful.
The only philosophical strand that is useful everytime in every situation is so called stoicism. I was stoic as a child and a teenager. People got disturbed by that. They thought I was being rude and even useless. Glad I was which had me never been forced to indulge in anything I would have regretted anyway. I had no frame of explanation except I simply had been there. And now I know about stoicism I have a word,maybe even some sentences to describe my inner self. But what really does it mean to anyone? Nothing.
Philosphy is no more an inner monologue to help yourself to get out of mental trenches. Now it is a mass marketed tool to stimulate people in certain ways. In the ancient days it was a mere moment of distraction from everyday chores when a "philosopher" spoke in the market place. It was a brief moment of relieve. Today it seems so damning necessary that one must have read this and that to be held accountable and seen as a professional. Philosophy however was never meant to be a profession. It was never meant to become what we today have made of it.
Philosophy means to reflect before you act. It means to be aware what is going on and how you can react in a better way. In that sense there is no such greatest philosophical theory I need to attach myself to.

I’m big on knowing the correct information before spouting off verbal diarrhea. I tell my kids all the time if you don’t know something then look it up because nothing is worse than someone who thinks they know what they’re talking about and they clearly don’t. It’s so easy to look up information in today’s world and there’s no reason not to, but I also tell them to be careful of where you’re getting your information from because that could be just as bad as speaking without knowing what you’re talking about, talking with incorrect information.
In this speculative scenario, let's consider Leibniz's Monad (first emanation of God), from the philosophical work "The Monadology", as an abstract representation of the zero-dimensional space that binds quarks together with the Strong Nuclear Force:
1) Indivisibility and Unity: Monads, as indivisible entities, mirror the nature of quarks, which are deemed elementary and indivisible particles in our theoretical context. Just as monads possess unity and indivisibility, quarks are unified in their interactions through the Strong Nuclear Force.
2) Interconnectedness: In the Monadology, monads are interconnected in a vast network. In a parallel manner, the interconnectedness of quarks through the strong force could be metaphorically represented by the interplay of monads, forming a web that holds particles together.
3) Inherent Properties: Just as monads possess inherent perceptions and appetitions, quarks could be thought of as having intrinsic properties like color charge, reflecting the inherent qualities of monads and influencing their interactions.
4) Harmony: The concept of monads contributing to universal harmony resonates with the idea that the Strong Nuclear Force maintains harmony within atomic nuclei by counteracting the electromagnetic repulsion between protons, allowing for the stability of matter.
5) Pre-established Harmony: Monads' pre-established harmony aligns with the idea that the strong force was pre-designed to ensure stable interactions among quarks, orchestrating their behavior in a way that parallels the harmony envisaged by Leibniz.
6) Non-Mechanical Interaction: Monads interact non-mechanically, mirroring the non-mechanical interactions of quarks through gluon exchange. This connection might be seen as a metaphorical reflection of the intricacies of quark-gluon dynamics.
7) Holism: The holistic perspective of monads could symbolize how quarks, like the monads' interconnections, contribute holistically to the structure and behavior of particles through the strong force interactions.

[2D is not the center of the universe,
0D is the center of the mirror universe]:
The mirror universe theory is based on the concept of parity violation, which was discovered in the 1950s. Parity violation refers to the observation that certain processes in particle physics don't behave the same way when their coordinates are reversed. This discovery led to the idea that there might be a mirror image of our universe where particles and their properties are flipped.
In this mirror universe, the fundamental particles that make up matter, such as electrons, protons, and neutrinos, would have their charges reversed. For example, in our universe, electrons have a negative charge, but in the mirror universe, they might have a positive charge.
Furthermore, another aspect of the mirror universe theory involves chirality, which refers to the property of particles behaving differently from their mirror images. In our universe, particles have a certain handedness or chirality, but in the mirror universe, this chirality could be reversed.
Quantum mechanics is more compatible with Leibniz's relational view of the universe than Newton's absolute view of the universe.
In Newton's absolute view, space and time are absolute and independent entities that exist on their own, independent of the objects and events that take place within them. This view implies that there is a privileged observer who can observe the universe from a neutral and objective perspective.
On the other hand, Leibniz's relational view holds that space and time are not absolute, but are instead relational concepts that are defined by the relationships between objects and events in the universe. This view implies that there is no privileged observer and that observations are always made from a particular point of view.
Quantum mechanics is more compatible with the relational view because it emphasizes the role of observers and the context of measurement in determining the properties of particles. In quantum mechanics, the properties of particles are not absolute, but are instead defined by their relationships with other particles and the measuring apparatus. This means that observations are always made from a particular point of view and that there is no neutral and objective perspective.
Overall, quantum mechanics suggests that the universe is fundamentally relational rather than absolute, and is therefore more compatible with Leibniz's relational view than Newton's absolute view.
What are the two kinds of truth according to Leibniz?
There are two kinds of truths, those of reasoning and those of fact. Truths of fact are contingent and their opposite is possible. Truths of reasoning are necessary and their opposite is impossible.
What is the difference between Newton and Leibniz calculus?
Newton's calculus is about functions.
Leibniz's calculus is about relations defined by constraints.
In Newton's calculus, there is (what would now be called) a limit built into every operation.
In Leibniz's calculus, the limit is a separate operation.
What are the arguments against Leibniz?
Critics of Leibniz argue that the world contains an amount of suffering too great to permit belief in philosophical optimism. The claim that we live in the best of all possible worlds drew scorn most notably from Voltaire, who lampooned it in his comic novella Candide.

I like your opinions on subjects I've often pondered about . I like the editing. I like your candour...I like the voice on my phone speaker . I like your research . I like the subtle ambience and the visuals are so on point it is like an ai did it 👌 👍 👏 🙏🙏
THIS is what needed to be out on the Golden Record. It helps explain humanity and all of us and our ideas
I would not want our most vulnerable aspects floating around in that hellish expanse just to be picked up by some opportunistic warlords from Andromeda and used to conquer our descendants lol. Maybe a little bit of jazz and classical will be enough to get on good terms with whoever is out there.
This content is an ideal form of what humanity could be, not what we are. It would be disingenuous to imply we are that enlightened as a whole. Most of us are still stuck in paleolithic thought processes.
All I have to say is damn one of the best UA-cam videos I've seen in years straight to the point and very articulate and personal and mind opening I don't usually think about these subjects but the second I started watching I was sucked in...
53:40 this is exactly how I feel now, and I’m glad I can watch the videos on your channel to think about these deep topics. I know I’m different from others, and to be honest I don’t mind, because learning and thinking is the more satisfying thing to do.
I'm different too... unless you're a chicken

Imagine if we got to live twice while remembering the first life. I wonder if we would do any better? And why do you have to die to do better in that second life? Why can't the second life start right now?
I love this.
No. Because you're not finished doing what you're supposed to do in this life yet. Or learning what you needed to learn. We're supposed to be on a journey toward becoming enlightened. And to progress forward toward that ultimate goal with each life we live.
So much to ponder. Amazed at just how many hours of effort must be on display here. Thank YOU for taking your vision to a platform where viewers are challanged to think for themsleves. Suggest adding more defined breaks. There is so much that it can be overwhelming.
These videos are very high quality. The constant commercials make the content borderline unwatchable without an add blocker. I get that creators want to get paid but there's a point where it's just overkill.
Creators? What do parasites create?
Your videos are great .
Thanks a ton for the love! It keeps me motivated to create more videos.
Why this video keeps playing even after you close youtube?
For the Dunning-Kruger effect, it is in my personal belief that we should forget comparisons entirely and focus solely on achieving our goals.
We don't really need to know how much better or worse we are compared to everyone else.
Dunning-Kruger is just a name scientists like to apply to lay people who ask them for actual evidence for their pet theories. Ironically, it is scientists who are more susceptible to it.
I would have to disagree. We should be focusing on improving ourselves, yes, but comparing yourself to others can humble you if you're overconfident, and help you realize you're special if you're underconfident. It depends on your mindset about it.
@@cobracoder6123 That's the thing. You shouldn't compare at all. What's it to you if someone else is better or worse? How does that help you, if at all? Unless you've got a massive competitive spirit, it doesn't mean jack shit. You don't need to know you're special, you don't need to know you're overconfident. Your goals are what is most important, always.
Anyways, if you can't compare yourself without risking yourself major distress, or gaining an overinflated ego, you shouldn't compare yourself at all. Focus on your own individual growth.
i agree, but it is in our very nature to compare ourselves to others, its a average, or standard, or norm --- aka a mirror. Without it, we wouldn't know ourselves. We would have no unit of measure. Without a mirror are we even real? Do we even exist, are we the tree in the forest no one hears?
I agree. Rather than comparing myself to others, I compare my present self with my past self. How have I improved? Am I reaching my goals? Do I need to make more changes to become a better version of myself? I can’t possibly use another person as a mirror for myself. We are different. I want to look into a mirror and like what I see. I want to be the person my future self will be proud of.

K. Maybe not.
I thought existential dread was a given if having adhd. It certainly has always given me courage to swim upstream so to speak. My mother was very doting with her praise of my individuality. She would say “i admire how you are not afraid to be yourself ever.” That likely helps.
My issue with the black swan theory is anything bad or surprising or unfair, fails to reach any of my expectations. I grew up as an overly curious, anxious child who still managed to be naive & optimistic. I questioned every evil or pain I heard or experienced, letting my expectations of bad turn into an extreme. At 9-10 years old, I convinced myself that I had to hide the abuse I experienced, I hid self harm, I didn't truly trust anyone after someone I thought could have all my trust slowly manipulated my trust into a weapon. My curious, damaged mind started to view the worst events we're aware of not anything close to the worst. Even now I'm unable to view things for positive change. To me, Covid was nothing compared the plagues & torture that feeds my infected brain.
so thats good? U now know you’ve been so down in rock bottom, theres only one way ⬆️. I felt like u for some time, Until My mom passed away, suddenly. Until then, I thought the abuse I encountered as a child was the most painful and traumatic experience, the separation from my mother who was my best friend and teacher of unconditional love and forgiveness has by far been the hardest. Since then, other people in my family who I truly loved passed- but It wasnt as bad for me in compromising to my other pain. Same goes for anything else really, anything could happen and its not as bad. Theres a beauty even in that darkness, that release or lost of fear that “something terrible will haopen and I cannot handle it” because u know you’ve already been through the worst. A freedom that comes with accepting rock bottom and not resisting. Thats when the birth process starts; with every death (death of innocence, death of old self/ healing traumas, death of loved ones) theres a birth ♾ and its our choice to allow it to take place OR resist it and stay in the fear. I already been thought the death, might as well allow the birth of whats to come.
Being edgy isn't cool bro
I get you. When Corona struck I was like: "now people are experiencing my reality". It's alot better now, but it's difficult to overcone the distrust.
@@sergueileonardoafonin7950 Thank you, I'm really glad things are better for you & I hope it continues to get easier as time goes on ❤️
This is such a good and interesting video. I loved every second of it. Thank you for making this video! I subscribed
I’m not quite sure how to put my feelings into words right now. All I can say is thank you. You’ve given me a taste of what I’ve been craving for so long. I didn’t know how badly I needed to know that it’s perfect to not know, to want to know is all that matters. Thank you to whoever is behind these videos because for just an hour I’ve felt a peace I hadn’t felt before. I hope you find that all the little things go right the first time around. :)
The thing about nostalgia has really messed me up. I just understood that I never had the time to make peace with the rapid change I went through. Il definitely start accepting it from today and hopefully feel less miserable about myself. Thank you for the wonderful video. It was worth listening to ❤
The more I learn the less I know
This is my mantra xD
It's a beautiful thing. Keeps us humble😉
So true
The dunning-kruger effect is interesting. I accept my role and my knowledge is next to nothing compared to the grand sceme of things. Down to the so called language i type here for other human beings, it itself a word our species developed to define well, us i am always trying to learn more. Life is so small and my impact is and will be nothing so i try to learn. As much as possible
And ironically, this is exactly the kind of hubris that the Dunning-Kruger effect is talking about - in the words of a Pharisee, “God, I thank you that I am not like other men . . .”
Thank goodness you didn't know what you didn't know and started the channel ...always interesting always learn somthing. Just wanted to say thanks for what you do.
my new favorite channel....ill probably stay on this channel for the rest of the year and beyond. Definitely on my daily watch list...cant wait for the new content!!!! ❤ 💪

The Dunning-Kruger effect is effected BY, the Dunning-Kruger effect, notably in the explanations given here where an(y) opinion of others 'exhibiting' the effect is based on variable opinions of possibly broad spectrums of others, including systemically ALL others in every instance. The opinions themselves being Dunning-Kruger effects of Dunning-Kruger effects of.. etc. We have entered infinite 'Dunning-Kruger' regress. I'd stick with ascertaining and heading towards progress!
Seems good to me; but I’m not going to say I know it to be true, because I’m not an expert
How do we influence the algorithm to always send us truthful videos?
That was an exceptional video dude. Thank you.
I have zero clues what your long videos are about. The past 2 days I've just had em play at night and had the nicest dreams once I fell asleep. So thanks?
i remember reading the egg theory on an instagram post of a tumblr blog, and it absolutely blew my mind, i was chuckling thinking about the post for minutes after i read it, to the point that my family thought i was growing crazy. it kicked off my love for interesting philosophical theories, and is a part of the reason im watching this video right now.
I always found it to be literally retarded but I’ve been reading and practicing real philosophy for many years
@@off6848This reply made me lmfao, but not in a bad way
Outstanding work, a wonderful addition to modern philosophy and growth, thank you
I would say that nostalgia is an important part of reproduction and nurturing. In wanting to remake the happy childhood memories, you revisit places that will create good memories for your children. It also encourages good parenting for the same reasons. It's a key empathy that transcends the generations. Human nature comes with that urge to want to share what made us happy... or even sad, sometimes.
The fundamental desire to be understood can be the underlying factor in wanting to share. Because if the person you are sharing with has the same reaction it will tighten your bond and give you a better sense of belonging from being understood.
I think the core aspect of every "non-survival mode" desire is just wanting to be understood or wanting to understand others, and from that comes the strengthened bond or reassurances and whathaveyou,
@@MrNecryptic I would still argue that wanting to be understood is an aspect of survival. If you belong you are more protected.
@@GPReeds Agreed.
Thank you for your great video. You are an oasis of thinking amongst rubbish ideas and trends. I hope there are many people listening or viewing your qualitative work.
