Simblified

Drones have been around for a while now and have found uses from photography to dropping bombs. But a quiet little revolution seems to be happening in the deliveries space. Join your Simblified hosts as they find out what you can dispatch by drone and to whom.

You might have heard of Neuralink, Elon Musk's company to try and hook up all our brains to the internet. So we can all share thoughts instantly and become super-smart and all that. Or at least that's the utopian vision!

In this episode, your hosts discuss the brain, Brain-Computer Interfaces and what the ramifications of such tech could be. We heavily reference this excellent explainer by Tim Urban (of Wait But Why fame): https://waitbutwhy.com/2017/04/neuralink.html

Thought-provoking, eh? In the future maybe we'll beam Simblified episodes right to your cortex!

Boy, is this a special episode. We spoke to Dr. Nitin Arora, a Consultant Intensivist who practices in Birmingham, England. Dr. Nitin, interestingly enough, wrote to us on Twitter feeling that our earlier episode on oxygen was incomplete. So we did what anyone should do to their critics - invited him to a podcast episode recording! And what a time we had - it was insightful, emotional, funny (Chuck tried to make bad jokes on oxygen) and very, very fulfilling.

This was such a great chat that we had so many questions, and ended up with a long chat that we're splitting up over two episodes. We hope you enjoy both of them.

PS: Yes, Chuck wanted to call the episode "I see you, ICU" but was mercifully vetoed.

Many thanks to Dr. Nitin for giving us so much of his time.

Why have the new IT rules created so much noise? What does it mean for your favourite social media platforms? Will Facebook and Twitter stop working in India? (No). Can the Simblified gang stop making bad jokes? (Also, no). Join your four regular hosts as they try to figure it out along with you.

Chuck saw a documentary recently - Netflix's Alma Matters (which is centered on IIT Kharagpur students) and found it fascinating enough to bring some of the points the show makes to a Simblified recording. In this freewheeling episode, our 3 and a half engineers discuss placements, gender imbalance, "core" subjects suffering at the hands of IT jobs, and of course, why 5 point Someone is actually not a bad book at all. If you studied in an engineering college, this will make you feel nostalgic. (We all also, of course, take a dump on MBA).

Why did the chicken cross the road? Because it looked left, then right, then left again and didn't find any answers. This week, the Simblified gang spoke to special guest Nipun Cherian - founder of the V4 People Party in Kerala and an entrepreneur who runs robotics automation - about the state of politics, how people like us can meaningfully engage in democracy and the ironic story of how he was jailed by a communist government for a people's protest.

With schools and universities physically closed during the last year or so, online learning was pretty much the only way to go. But is it the future? What are the pros and cons of the whole thing? The Simblified gang have a freewheeling discussion. Chuck has some experience in this matter, having taught at a university (physically and virtually) and running his own online course now. But don't worry, there are no assignments in this episode - just the usual smattering of bad jokes. Join in as we talk virtual education.
