Researchers say they’ve found a way to create a freely propagating vortex ring, like a smoke ring, but with electromagnetic waves. Why does this even matter? What might this discovery be used for? Let’s take a look. z_9ssLiGUr0 sabine-is-it-eugenics-to-breed-for-intelligence Sabine | Is it Eugenics to Breed for Intelligence? Screening embryos for diseases and other traits is becoming increasingly common. Some companies even claim that they can calculate your intelligence score from a genetic analysis. But how much do we really know about the genetic root of intelligence? XIMUh5pbHg4 sabine-hossenfelder-oh-no-quantum-trading-is-back Sabine Hossenfelder | Oh No! Quantum Trading is Back On the stock market, being just a few milliseconds faster than your competitors can make you lots of money. HiO3M_cPeSo sabine-climate-tipping-points-are-real-stop-denying-it Sabine | Climate Tipping Points are Real, Stop Denying It The New York Times recently published an article about various climate change tipping points. Anthony Watts, a climate change denier, then published a blogpost calling the article “nothing more than speculation.” In this video I want to put these claims into perspective. iX7kOrYRoSU can-quantum-physics-explain-consciousness-after-all Can Quantum Physics Explain Consciousness After All? Nobel Prize winner Roger Penrose famously believes that the collapse of the wave-function in quantum mechanics causes consciousness. A group of physicists now tries to improve on Penroses idea in a new paper. I have some comments... LVU-hwZgnuA crazy-new-physics-anomaly-anti-matter-helium-detected Crazy New Physics Anomaly | Anti-Matter Helium Detected A small experiment aboard the International Space Station, the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer, found a crazy new physics anomaly: They have now detected 10 nuclei of anti-matter helium, way more than expected. gMOjD_Lt8qY sabine-hossenfelder-how-i-lost-trust-in-scientists Sabine Hossenfelder | How I Lost Trust in Scientists You all know that I am critical of some developments in physics and tech. I believe it is for this reason that I get a lot of comments of the sort "I am so disappointed in you that you fell for the climate hoax, I thought you are a sceptic". TEzsBhJTgpc sabine-new-cold-fusion-device-successfully-generates-heat Sabine | New Cold Fusion Device Successfully Generates Heat A new cold fusion claim was made by the Indian company HYLENR. I had a look.. and I have some comments. 77RobHGXR5I sabine-hossenfelder-this-climate-graph-has-a-nasty-secret Sabine Hossenfelder | This Climate Graph has a Nasty Secret I love talking about things that climate scientists don’t want to talk about, and today I have a fun example. It's the reason why all those climate change graphs you've seen talk about a "temperature anomaly" rather than an absolute temperature. 2eIPHX-NpMM sabine-hossenfelder-new-batteries-its-not-all-hype Sabine Hossenfelder | New Batteries: It’s Not All Hype Despite dozens of press releases on new battery technologies being released every week, not much is happening. This is why I don't talk about battery tech any more. But recently I read an interesting study about the hype cycle of battery technology. Let’s have a look. vOgd0U3QChc sabine-think-you-understand-quantum-physics-try-this Sabine | Think you understand Quantum Physics? Try This. I was recently reminded of a quantum puzzle that tripped me up and I wanted to share it with everyone to see if you could figure it out. Let’s have a look. RuSbqFL6VcY sabine-time-ran-slower-in-the-past-physicists-find Sabine | Time Ran Slower in the Past, Physicists Find Physicists from the University of Queensland in Australia have found evidence that time ran slower in the past. In this video I explain how time-dilation is related to redshift, what that means for light from distant galaxies, and what happens to an observer who falls into a black hole. W1ZZ-Yni8Fg sabine-hossenfelder-why-im-embarrassed-to-be-german Sabine Hossenfelder | Why I'm Embarrassed to be German In this video I want to make a personal statement to explain why I'm unhappy about the way that my country has been developing. Germany is not what it used to be. ixSCZwFCQlc sabine-why-bill-gates-new-natrium-reactor-is-a-big-deal Sabine | Why Bill Gates’ New Natrium Reactor is a Big Deal Bill Gates has financed a nuclear reactor in Wyoming that just started construction. GyNaH27lX90 sabine-ai-passed-the-turing-test-and-no-one-noticed Sabine | AI passed the Turing Test And No One Noticed The Turing test used to be the key benchmark for artificial intelligence. fdqNJo6JScA sabine-hossenfelder-what-will-they-think-about-us-in-2085 Sabine Hossenfelder | What will they think about us in 2085? The more depressing the present becomes, the more I like thinking about the future. Here I have collected some speculations about what changes are on the horizon, from the end of monogamy to autonomous vehicles and synthetic wombs. tzPqOS8HC8o why-superdeterminism-might-be-real-sabine-hossenfelder-rebuts Why SuperDeterminism Might be Real | Sabine Hossenfelder I think that the real interpretation is a superposition of all possible interpretations -Dqz7P-mORs sabine-climate-scientists-cant-agree-on-how-warm-it-is Sabine | Climate Scientists Can't Agree on How Warm It Is I recently read that the world has crossed 1.5 degrees of warming above the pre-industrial level, the limit set in the Paris agreement. Q0fwRMvNkoA sabine-gravity-without-mass-could-explain-dark-matter Sabine | Gravity Without Mass Could Explain Dark Matter I recently read that you can have gravity without mass. Ha, no way, I thought and had a look at the paper. It's wild, people. Tw9sr05Vtso sabine-hossenfelder-this-new-idea-could-explain-complexity Sabine Hossenfelder | This New Idea Could Explain Complexity The universe creates complexity out of simplicity, but despite many attempts at understanding how, scientists still have not figured it out. Yz4wfKkw2fg sabine-biquantum-computing-first-scalable-platforms Sabine | Quantum Computing | First Scalable Platforms A lot of big banks are banking on quantum computing because they think it’ll give them an edge in trading. 4CXCMBDIwwY sabine-hossenfelder-this-could-test-stephen-hawkings-prediction Sabine | This could test Stephen Hawking’s Prediction Stephen Hawking’s most famous prediction is that black holes decay by emitting radiation. xm1B3Y3ypoE sabine-hossenfelder-is-the-intelligence-explosion-near-a-reality-check Sabine Hossenfelder | Is the Intelligence-Explosion Near? I had a look at Leopold Aschenbrenners recent (very long) essay about the supposedly near "intelligence explosion" in artificial intelligence development. I am not particularly convinced by his argument. BoAVyzzO1XE sabine-hossenfelder-ai-learned-to-lie-deliberately Sabine Hossenfelder | AI Learned to Lie Deliberately We just saw another open letter about the risks of artificial intelligence, calling for more regulation. 2RpWU05YxsU sabine-hosenfelder-bitcoin-the-good-the-bad-and-the-truth Sabine Hossenfelder | Bitcoin | The Good, the Bad, and the Truth CNxkFDhhtJY musk-is-right-neutrinos-are-evidence-for-new-physics Musk is Right: Neutrinos Are Evidence for New Physics Elon Musk made a surprising tweet about neutrinos, writing that “Anything that potentially challenges the Standard Model is a very interesting experiment.” What is he going on about? Is he correct? Let’s have a look QO5plxqu_Yw sabine-hossenfelder-ais-dirty-little-secret Sabine Hossenfelder | AI’s Dirty Little Secret There’s a lot of talk about artificial intelligence these days, but what I find most interesting about AI no one ever talks about.
