  • Solving Quadratics by Using the Quadratic Formula

    You remember this one, don't you? Opposite of b, plus or minus... what was it? Well instead of just telling you, why don't we derive the formula? As it turns out, it's like completing the square, but with variables. Will you just watch this already? I can't explain it without the pictures.

  • Using Microbes to Turn Trash Into Energy? (Discussion With Sasha Rollings-Scattergood of Anaergia)

    As a civilization, we produce way too much trash, and we use way too much energy that is derived from fossil fuels and other unsustainable sources. What if we could kill two birds with one stone? What if we could turn trash into energy? Well we can! With the help of some plucky little microbes, of course. Anaergia is a company that is turning trash into renewable natural gas and fertilizer on an industrial scale. This is proven carbon-negative technology that is already widespread in Europe, and it is starting to be developed in North America as well. This is great news for the environment, so let's learn all about it!

  • Warren Smith is Dumb

    Who the hell is Warren Smith? Nobody important, but he made a shitty response to my videos regarding trans people as an attempt to farm clicks from idiots who worship Matt Walsh and other angry conservative transphobes. It's so bad. But it's short, so let's make fun of it for a while.

  • Systems of Differential Equations Part 2: Matrices and Stability

    We just looked at some simple ways to solve systems of differential equations, via modeling and elimination. But there are other methods, some of which involve matrices. This will require that we remember some concepts from linear algebra, so let's dive into it!
