Thinking Fast and Slow Test at Thinkercon - test for psychological arousal
If you've never heard about Daniel Kahneman or his book Thinking Fast and Slow you really ought to check it out. It's all about how our brains can be fooled essentially because we're lazy at thinking. But one of the key ideas in the book is that there two modes of thinking - fast and slow. But this idea isn't just out of thin air because there is a psychological response when your turn your brain on and I wanted to test it.

More on the book can be found here:

But really just read the thing - I could put an amazon link but it's an old enough book you can probably find it cheaper somewhere else or just get it from your local library.

Why Too Much Salt Is Bad For Plants
Переглядів 9195 років тому
I hadn't really thought about why too much salt in the soil is bad for plants until I found a video teaching me all about the osmosis of water due to salt gradients. In this video I attempt to recreate the original demonstration with a couple of other additions - For Science!

How to prove there is Iodine in Salt!
Переглядів 3,9 тис.6 років тому
Growing up I always wondered what “Iodized salt” was. After I learned that it was for nutrition reasons (Check your local Wikipedia for more on that) I still had to just believe the reality of the inclusion of trace amounts of the nutrient iodine when I read it listed on the package - but no more! I’ve finally found a cool way to perform a known test for iodine while leaving the the salt and io...
How to fold and take pictures of snowflakes + why they have 6 sides

I don’t know where I first picked up the fact that snowflakes always form with 6 points. Maybe my parents or a teacher told me, but growing up in the mountains of Colorado I had many a chance to look closely at snowflakes and when they grow large enough it’s easy to see that snowflakes do indeed have 6 points.

Graham's Law Actually gas transfer through an egg
Переглядів 9538 років тому
Graham’s Law is one of classic gas laws you learn about in AP or college physics but despite its apparent simplicity it’s very difficult to actually demonstrate the law. Less of a law and more like a tendency under very special circumstances. Many, many things will interfere with a gas moving according to Graham’s Law, like pressure differences, convection currents, and solubility of materials....

How everybody can measure the size of the Earth
Переглядів 3,8 тис.8 років тому
It may seem that measuring the Earth is a feat best left to the experts with modern technology. Or it may seem that measurement on such a grand scale was a great feat of the ancients far removed from our day to day world. But neither of these is true. We all live on the same planet and there really isn't anything stopping you from doing it yourself. Bells of Fraggle Rock Clip: ua-cam.com/video/...

    interesting, but if you want to get rid of ants - mix sugar, borax and water. soak cotton balls in the mixture and leave around ant nests and trails. and the nests will die of within days.

    Interesting video. My grandfather used to put a rock on the counter in the kitchen and sprinkle black pepper randomly around it. Ants always died around it. He used to say they get confused and bump their heads on the rock lol. I think you are misusing the term "evolve", there's no evidence the cinnamon tree was ever without it's spicy aroma. It was always that way.

    Update on July 29: The cinnamon worked against Crazy Ants that tried to invade my house. But the leaf cutter ants that stripped all of our roses and Bugambilia plants, CINNAMON DOES NOT WORK. I saw them laughing at me, pointing their front legs and saying "Gringo idiot! Hahaha!" They just move it away. So... NOTHING has worked like the poison. Which... I just spent another $220 pesos on poison yesterday. Original comment: I have spent $13,000 pesos ($750 USD) in two years on ant poisons with zero success of getting rid of leaf cutter ants. (I posted numerous videos about it) I must find something that kills or stops the advance of these ants. I have dogs, and my wife and I are both highly sensitive to poisons and chemicals. The ants come out mainly at night and completely strip entire plants and trees in my yard and the outside ficus trees. The six trees on the south side, they completely killed them. They got stripped over a dozen times. Too much stress. They tunneled under the wall and stripped the cambium layer off the roots of a 10 foot tall, 30 year old Huisache tree, then they deposited the root cambium pieces in the filter drain trap of our unused pool. We took about 25 pounds of cambium pieces out of that filter collection drain trap which shaped like a very long bucket going down at the side of the pool. Ill try to use powdered cinnamon and report back here, as well. I'll use a link to this video in the description of my video ill do this weekend. I'll probably have to do 2 or 3 videos of the process. It's a never-ending fight, and I've lost $30,000 pesos $1,750 USD) of plants and trees. It's so disheartening. I saw someone else made a comment here that they are about to move from their home for this very reason.

      Try putting about 2 tablespoons of dawn dish soap (or any concentrate dish soap) into 4 liters of water, stir it up, and pour it down the hole. The soap and water will smother their exoskeleton and they suffocate. Lots of farmers use it here in the US.

    The ants here have no mercy for anyone they will literally use each other as a bridge. For example, inside an anti-ant water mote for hummingbird feeders. I got so fed up I tried rubbing a Dove deodorant stick on the line it hung from & never had them infest my feeders again! I just used it 1/4 top of line so as to not interfere with the birds. (Also they're underneath an over hang so rain doesn't touch them. But, they've taken this town over. They're under everything outside & are a huge nuisance when gardening. Only thing that's helped is cinnamon, but you have to refresh every 2 days in the summer.
