Replace Real Engineering with Practical Engineering for me

Is it just me or has Kurtzgesakt gotten really weird over the last couple years? Like, their videos seem like they want to be clickbait, but they’re really bad at it.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]I stopped watching them several years ago. I can't say it was a specific video or event, but I just started zoning out when trying to watch them. I don't do that much, I generally only watch, play, listen to and do things I can focus on. I've tried to watch some videos since then but I just lose interest after a minute or two. It's like they refined their style so much that it all became too "samey" and it feels like they're so scared of offending anyone that they end up saying nothing.

If anyone likes music theory, Adam Neely, Nahre Sol, Charles Cornel, and Open Studio Jazz are all amazing.
I really would love to hear what a non musician thinks about them too. I bet maths heads would love it.

Angela Collier…I also have my fair share of physics classes under my belt due to my engineering degree and she makes me think of things in a way that none of my professors did.
She’s brilliant.
The "magnetic forces do no work" thing is maddening.
The guy who is 'the guy' for that level of physics textbooks just happens to be determined to prove a non-quantum mechanics based explanation of magnetism so the book is written from that perspective without actually saying it. Of course.

Through the magic of buying two of them, you have someone who agrees that it should be on the list.

I've got to throw The Budget Museum out there since it's not listed.

Kurgesatz was really good before they started the black mirror season, where every video is about how humanity can get killed by various things.
Never heard of the other ones but I'll give it a try.
And there's a PBS video for anything you can think about, sometimes they just don't surface properly with search.

that's just dipping your toes in the shore of the bast ocean that is yt educational content.

Yeah they’re kinda bullshit.
SpaceTime and 3Blue1Brown are good science educators for the college level.
Veritasium is good for the middle/high school level.
Kurzgesagt is probably useful for an infant. Or like a smart dog. Maybe an Australian shepherd.
Garbage channel.

You can tell the Gates-bucks have really leaned them in a neo-liberal slant. It kind of sucks.
Kurzgesagt when its summarizing research papers is alright, but as soon as anything touches on a social or political issue it's all "vote with your wallet
" -
Really appreciate her work - the educational stuff is good at putting things into a context and giving laypeople some mental coathooks to hang things off of, and I like how she emphasizes the video explainer format is a provider of jumping off points more than a source of real understanding.
Her discussion of media and news is maybe not as relevant here but still pretty on point in my experience."Her discussion of media and news is maybe not as relevant here but still pretty on point in my experience."
I remember being surprised how much I enjoyed her video about Star Trek: Picard, given that it was a multiple hour long rant video — it's amazing how much difference it makes for someone to be engaging in good faith criticism

They're honest, direct, open, and willing to learn, I love kurzgesagt. The world sucks, but we shouldn't shy away from understanding why it sucks and how we can improve it
