This one was still over my head, but you gave me just enough to look it up. For anyone similarly confused.
I commend you for making it this far on the internet without encountering it.
why is she wearing glasses without, eh… glasses? 😂
I lost the game
I’m at a complete loss.
:.|:;For people wanting the answer this was the subject of a Veritasium video.
for people who don't want to click the link
It’s B.
Don’t support Veritasium
And why would that be?
Don’t support shitty youtube. It sucks since googol bought it.
That’s the number not the company.
What’s the story? What’d they do?
Sold out to some venture capital firm.
I didn’t know he did that. He was shit long before that. Here’s my comment:
He created fake science experiments to sell products and slipped them into normal videos, like the video where he claimed wet wipes are flushable, then created a fake experiment “proving” they were flushable. He’s incredibly untrustworthy and also, not a scientist! He’s an art major or business, can’t remember which.
Personally I’ve noticed topics covered by smaller content creators, explaining almost the exact same thing (minus maybe a few details like some random guy’s age), uploaded a few weeks before, and then suddenly Veritasium decides to cover the topic with basically the exact same info over a longer time span.
Not to mention the clickbait titles and thumbnails, less focus on the technical side of topics and more on the emotional/personal side, and the whole selling out to private equity thing.
I hate this so much,
Someone is mentioned on Lemmy and there is always a drive by comment saying don’t support X or X is a bad person with no context whatsoever. No mention of what specifically they are accused of doing/saying, no way to figure out if that clashes with your values or not, no documentation etc.
And subjectively it feels like half the time I research why this might be true it’s debatable at best, I assume because if there was compelling evidence the person doing the drive by would have linked it.

Lemmy sometimes feels like one big ball of barely seething social outrage.
So many didn’t grow out of their “I’m so special and unique, I don’t follow the mainstream” teenage phase and it really shows.

According to Wikipedia
In 2004, Muller graduated from Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Engineering Physics. Muller moved to Australia to study film-making; however, he instead enrolled for a PhD in physics education research from the University of Sydney, which he completed in 2008 with the thesis, Designing Effective Multimedia for Physics Education.
