One Einstein Is Worth A Legion Of PhD Drones

China keeps on graduating more Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Engineers than anywhere else in the world. We're lagging behind China because their universities are pumping out more science graduates. They're not pumping out more innovators. It's not like the students that are coming out of those universities in China with their science degrees are going off and doing PhDs and doing innovative stuff. Quite the opposite, because they've been trained in a particular way.

They've been trained to memorize this textbook, respond to this exam, and they actually can't think outside of the box. They've been trained that this is what's true; this is the unquestioned correct way of thinking about science. And that might be good for being able to imitate, as we see, but it's not going to be the thing that enables you to push forward the frontier in technology, let alone fundamental physics or anywhere else.

So, I don't care what the statistics are on how many science graduates they've got. That makes no difference. Give me 10 innovative, creative young physics graduates over 50,000 physics graduates that all are able to pass the exam with a hundred percent efficiency any day.

Yeah, one Einstein is worth a legion of drones with PhDs in physics. It doesn't matter. Creativity, by its nature, goes zero to one, and no amount of throwing bodies at the problem will get you there. That's just the nature of mimetic evolution, and it's just the nature of creativity.

Division resulting in decimals

So in this video, we’re going to think about dividing numbers where the quotient, the result of our division, might result in a decimal. So let’s say we wanted to compute what 5⁄2 is. In the past, you might have said, “Hey, 2 times 2 is 4, and then you h…

How to Sell Anything by Tony Robbins *rare video

So all you have to do to persuade someone is do two simple things. One, you have to identify, and ideally that first step you’re going to do is you’re going to identify the buying state. One, and two, is you’re going to anchor it—anchor that state to your…

Critical value (z*) for a given confidence level | AP Statistics | Khan Academy

We’re told that Elena wants to build a one sample z interval to estimate what proportion of computers produced at a factory have a certain defect. She chooses a confidence level of 94%. A random sample of 200 computers shows that 12 computers have the def…

Second-order reactions | Kinetics | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

Let’s say we have a hypothetical reaction where reactant A turns into products. Let’s say the reaction is second order with respect to A. If the reaction is second order with respect to A, then we can write the rate of the reaction is equal to the rate co…

London dispersion forces introduction | States of matter | High school chemistry | Khan Academy

What we’re going to do in this video is start talking about forces that exist between even neutral atoms or neutral molecules. The first of these intermolecular forces we will talk about are London dispersion forces. So, it sounds very fancy, but it’s act…
