The Definitive Guide to Debunking Creationists Part 4: Genetics/Molecular Biology

Moving right along with our chordate cladogram, we arrive at the sister group to the amphibians, the amniotes. The defining characteristic within this clade is the amniotic egg.

We learned about first declension nouns already, so let's move on to second declension nouns. These are nouns ending in -us. The vast majority of these are masculine nouns, although there are exceptions. Let's look at all the forms with examples!Script by Patrizia Farina, Professor of Italian at Western Connecticut State University and Purchase College.Watch the whole Latin playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveLatinItalian Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveItalianAmerican History Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAmericanHistoryPhilosophy Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhiloClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2General Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.

We've learned a bit about continental philosophy and the Frankfurt School. Let's continue this thread by examining existentialism and postmodernism. This will include figures like Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Derrida, and others.Script by Luca IgansiWatch the whole Philosophy/Logic playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhiloPsychology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePsychMathematics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMathGeneral Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology/Genetics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioAnatomy & Physiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAnatPhysBiopsychology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiopsychPharmacology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePharmaHistory of Drugs Videos: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveHistoryDrugsGeology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGeoEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.

The last conic section is the weirdest looking one. It's the hyperbola! Sometimes it kind of looks like a double parabola, but the equation is totally different. It's actually much more like an ellipse in terms of how the equation works.

When we learned about definite integrals, we saw that we can evaluate the antiderivative over the limits of integration to get a number, the area under the curve over that interval. But what if that interval is infinitely large? Rather surprisingly, an infinitely large interval can actually yield a finite area! Let's see how this works by checking out a variety of different improper integrals and attempting to evaluate them.Watch the whole Calculus playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveCalculusWatch the whole Mathematics playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMathClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2General Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.

After many centuries of pure observation, it finally became time for mankind to start doing some science to figure out the dimensions of the Earth and other nearby objects.

Last week I put out a video about another science communicator named Sabine Hossenfelder. In it, I criticized some unprofessional behavior regarding her choice of titles, thumbnails, and generalized deceptive anti-science rhetoric which has clearly been fueling science denial among the public in large numbers. While many people were relieved to finally hear someone say these things out loud, a portion of the internet lost their minds over it, leaving infantile criticism which only demonstrated that they didn't actually watch the video or understand the point of it. All of those people wanted to talk about academia, so let's talk about academia a little bit in this video, while also addressing an unbelievably immature response video from Sabine where she doubled down on all of her bullshit rhetoric and made things much, much worse for herself. To anyone currently having a temper tantrum about the fact that I made this video as well as the first one, take a deep breath and find the courage to actually watch this video all the way through this time. There is still hope for you to get a clue today.Watch all my content exposing Sabine: https://bit.ly/ProfDaveSabineScientific progress despite irreproducibility: https://www.pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.1073/pnas.1711786114Rethinking media narratives: https://www.pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.1073/pnas.1708276114Paper on publishing metrics: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333487946_Over-optimization_of_academic_publishing_metrics_Observing_Goodhart's_Law_in_actionAstronomy/Astrophysics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAstronomyClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2Watch all my debunks: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveDebunkEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Learn more about your ad choices.

Who is this guy Professor Jiang that everyone is talking about? He runs a channel called Predictive History, where he pretends to be delivering lectures to students, but he's actually just going on delusional rants where he fumbles the most trivial aspects of every scientific discipline, and spews insane conspiracy theories about geopolitics. The only thing crazier than his ridiculous sermons is the fact that he has been exploding in popularity over the past few weeks based on some not-even-remotely-impressive "predictions" that he made about global affairs. Let's take him down a notch, shall we?Watch my other debunks/debates/discussions: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveDebunkEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Learn more about your ad choices.

You know how Terrance Howard is a complete lunatic who spews hot gibberish to trick people into thinking he's smart? And how Billy Carson is a grifting fraud who takes advantage of the black community to get rich from slinging snake oil and lies?
