      If you're watching this on a Windows PC, there's a setting within Microsoft that will change your PC to emit yellow-toned light once the sun's gone down wherever you are in the world (it's attuned to the timezone you're in.) Or you can manually set it to whatever time you want. In windows 10, it's under Settings/System and is the top option in the 'Display' category (called 'Night Light.') Switch it to 'On' and it'll do it for you automatically.

    I think the way he speaks is totally fine and actually great. He speaks clearly, which is great for transcription purposes; he speaks confidently, which helps communicate that he knows what he's talking about; and he speaks enthusiastically, which shows he cares not only about the content of what he's saying, but also about communicating it to others. Science communication is difficult! Need not give him a hard time about it when it does no harm.
    Also, the micro sleeps are so real. Mine were really bad during university.

      During my army time I had a weird sleep experience once. Sleep deprived after "camping" several days in the forest I fell asleep sitting next to a fire. It was during training and I expected an alarm going off any second. I "slept" but I was aware of what was going on around me, guard change, refill of fire and things. I woke up 4h later and felt rested. First and only time I was like half asleep. Probably a series of micro sleep or something like that.

Some guy in the platoon was clearly dreaming while marching, because apparently he kept talking gibberish like people who talk in their sleep, but when confronted with it, remembers nothing after the last day of the camp.

    Here's a technique I leaned just recently:
    Inhale for 4 count
    Hold that breath for 7 count
    Exhale slowly for 6 count
    I do that twice, I'm sleepy.
    Then a few normal breaths, and repeat the pattern, and I'm asleep. I've never made it through the fourth breath in that cycle. It's insane how well it works.

    Something I've found helpful as someone who is diagnosed with Bipolar 2/insomnia is getting 4 hours of sleep a night and going to bed late over the week and on my days off, sleeping 5-6 hours. It's helped but I've also found a medication that works well. I was on ambien for 10 or so years and that really messed up my sleep and my overall health. This was a great video!

      I think it's because he has very dramatic features, in the sense that he has large eyes & nose, and downturned eyebrows and eyes. Most people don't have so many dramatic features so to see them all on one face can be more noticeable. Not that there is anything wrong with any of those things :)

      @YurinanAcquiline 4 роки тому +5

      I think his facial proportions are off or abnormally pronounced. His eyes are down-turned but still wide, his nose is especially long and also down-turned with a slight hook, he has a short but prominent forehead among other things. Either way, he seems to be enthusiastic about his field and I like that.

    1:51 - I actually used to sleep with my eyes open, quite regularly, when I was young. This was primarily due to the fact that I often had nightmares and I would intentionally try to keep myself awake for as long as possible, yet my brain would inevitably shut down, in the process. My father brought this to my attention as he would occasionally check up on my brother and I in the middle of the night and the first couple of times, it actually caught him off guard, as he thought I was awake and would start talking to me, only to realize that I was staring right through him.
