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.

Worked example: Calculating concentration using the Beer–Lambert law | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

So I have a question here from the Cots, Trickle, and Townsend Chemistry and Chemical Reactivity book, and I got their permission to do this. It says a solution of potassium permanganate has an absorbance of 0.53 when measured at 540 nanometers in a 1 cen…

Introduction to nucleic acids and nucleotides | High school biology | Khan Academy

We are now going to talk about what is perhaps the most important macromolecule in life, and that is known as nucleic acid. Now, first of all, where does that name come from? Well, scientists first observed this in the nucleus of cells, and so that’s wher…
