      I'm wondering if it's ultimately helpful or unhelpful to use the old classification system instead of just starting with cladistics... obviously skipping steps to make it all the way to humans. I was having a conversation just this morning trying to explain that birds are reptiles and that "fish" isn't a particularly useful concept biologically.

      My old Biochemistry professor, Dr. Cole at the University of Idaho told us that hydrophobic is a misnomer. Water is a bigot. Oil wants to spread out and relax. Water is uptight and doesn’t like anything that has a neutral charge like oil. Thought you might find that funny or useful for future videos in the series

      So qualifications from their are less valuable and worth less than those from other places. I really don't get how things work where every state has completely different standards of education. How can you judge someone's skills and knowledge when a B in one state means something completely different in another state cause that state uses prager u or doesn't teach evolution?

      ​@jjphank so everything needs a cause therefore god but god is conveniently the exception to the rule.
      Also if god doesn't need a cause than why not just simplify it to matter/energy and time/space doesn't need a cause?
      I also don't get how a more complex thing that doesn't have a cause is needed for something simpler that doesn't have a cause. If we just start at the universe then it's simpler and therefore more likely.

      Every state needs to be held to a minimum (and high) standard for public education. With well-paid and well-trained teachers, an entirely secular (mandatory side) education (religious electives are fine so long as all religions are properly represented, not just a Christian Class or something) based on the best facts and science available to the world.
      A state can go above and beyond if they want... but there needs to be a high quality minimum that a state cannot fall below without serious repercussions.
      The US really needs to stop falling further and further behind the rest of the developed world in public education or it will go very, very badly for us.

      * what are fatty acids and lipids; amino acids and proteins; mono-, di- and polysaccharides; and nucleotid bases and DNA/RNA
      * how are all those made and degraded by living beings - focusing on enzymatic reactions, but maybe touching on ribozymes as well
      (like what Forrest talked about ih the video, but WAY more detailed)
      * learning about detection reactions
      * learning how to measure enzymatic acitvity to analyze the reactions mentioned above
      * At both my german universities it was practice to "torture" all students with doing glucose tolerance tests under different condition on each other (one person actually drinking the glucose, one eating something with lots of longer polysaccharides, one eating only protein, one doing sports ...). First, because it actually demonstrates a lot of the above mentiond suff quite well, but mostly because it sucks and we had to go through it, when we were students, too.

    I just wanted you to know that your yarn metaphor has an extra layer of appropriateness. How a project turns out is more than just the pattern/recipe of stitches used. It also depends on the twist of the yarn itself. Which direction it's spun, if it's a balanced twist, or if it's been overtwisted, affects the final garment. Especially in the case of overtwisting, which will cause the piece to bias (you knit a square but it contorts into a parallelogram). But if you know it's been overtwisted you can make changes to the yarn itself to balance it back out, change the pattern to a more balanced one, or use it to your advantage to create intentionally biased pieces.

    I know these types of videos don’t get as much attention as your reaction videos but please continue them, you warm and bubbly expression of your love for science constantly makes my day and I NEVER WOULD’VE THOUGHT A PERSON COULD MAKE ME LOVE BREAD SO MUCH ❤❤❤

    Wow. This is making me realize how much fundamental Chem stuff I chucked out of my brain the second I couldn't use it immediately in my Biology work, and I took enough Chem courses to get a minor in Chemistry. Pretty sure I've forgotten almost everything from university except anything related to methodology, though. Troubling. But, I remember enough to double-check when and how I'm wrong!... Hopefully.
    My brain thinks fixing that uncertainty apparently means always assuming I've fucked up. That's why I'm perfectly healthy and never struggle with anxiety, depression, or perfection indecision _ever._ c: /s

    cool, yeah. a semester in Uni for biochemistry, and this is the best explanation I have gotten so far on this. I can finally differentiate the two. it makes so much sense. (continues mumbling while going into the distance)
