  • James Madison: Father of the Constitution (1809 - 1817)

    James Madison was a tiny fellow, but he packed a political punch. He was absolutely pivotal in the drafting of both the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and he started the Democratic-Republican Party with Thomas Jefferson, all before becoming president in 1809. We wrap up a lot of the early history of the United States in this clip, so take a look!

  • Eric Weinstein Doesn't Understand Economics

    Use code professordave at https://incogni.com/professordave to get an exclusive 60% off.

    Everyone knows by now that when Eric Weinstein pretends to be a genius physicist, he's actually just a grifting fraud posturing for science illiterate laypeople to manipulate them with propaganda. But did you know that he tries to do the same thing with economics? It's true, he pretends that he and his wife have revolutionized the field, but nobody will acknowledge them because they're stupid buttfaces. Well unfortunately for him, just like how physicists did eventually read Geometric Unity and explain how it's literally nothing, economists have caught wind of his claims regarding economics, and are now doing the same thing there too. One such economist, Matthijs van Veelen, joins me in this video to help us understand how Eric has no clue what he's talking about in this field. Enjoy!

  • Thromboembolic Drugs Part 2: Mechanism of Action for Antiplatelets

    We just learned a bit about platelet activation, so we know how their involvement in blood clot formation works. Now it's time to learn about how drugs can inhibit platelet activation. What is the mechanism for this? Which pathways are involved? What are the concerns associated with this approach to medication? Let's find out!

  • Divisibility, Prime Numbers, and Prime Factorization

    Now that we understand division, we can talk about divisibility. A number is divisible by another if their quotient is a whole number. The smaller number is a factor of the larger one, but are there numbers with no factors at all? There's some pretty surprising stuff in this one!

  • Laplace’s Equation: Separation of Variables

    After looking at first-order partial differential equations, it's time to move on to second order PDEs. One method for solving these is to use Laplace's equation. This will allow us to separate the variables. Let's see how it works!

  • Order of Arithmetic Operations: PEMDAS

    Sometimes there are expressions that contain a number of different arithmetic operations. But how do we evaluate these? Left to right? Right to left? Does it matter? Someone make a decision! Well, someone did, and we have a strict algorithm that tells us the order in which we evaluate arithmetic expressions. It's an acronym, and acronyms are fun, so this will be fun!

    Earlier this year, I humiliated a rapping flat earther named Lord Jamar, lived on a podcast. Since then, he's been completely obsessed with me, refusing to admit that he's a complete buffoon who fell for the dumbest hoax in human history, but instead doubling down on everything and venting about what a stupid shill I am to whomever will listen. So let's react to him doing that!

  • Understanding Exponents and Their Operations

    We've been looking at the four basic arithmetic operations for some time now, but now we have to learn a new one. Just the way that multiplication is repeated addition, exponentiation is repeated multiplication. Check this out to see what I mean!
