This water bottle allows you to carry two different liquids and dispense them from the same nozzle separately or together at your command. It's a collaboration between myself and Steve Mold that you can pre-order now.

It all started when Steve and I were talking about the physics behind the Assassin's teapot, and I said something like, "Wouldn't it be amazing if there was a water bottle that worked in the same way?" Then he probably said something like, "You have such good ideas, Michael, and you're so handsome." I think that's exactly how the project began.

Over the next few months, we designed a portable version of the Assassin's teapot: a double barrel water bottle with no moving parts that uses just surface tension and air pressure. We even designed mathematical koozies that can hide the secret or be removed to reveal and teach.

We call it the Assassin's water bottle. We are only going to make a limited number of these, so pre-order today. The future of drinking starts now. The future of poisoning people stops now. Do not use this for that.

Area of an isosceles triangle

Pause this video and see if you can find the area of this triangle. I’ll give you two hints: recognize this is an isosceles triangle, and another hint is that the Pythagorean theorem might be useful. All right, now let’s work through this together. So we…

Estimating division that results in non whole numbers

So let’s think about something a little bit. What do you think 17 divided by 2 is going to be? Well, you might immediately realize that it’s not obvious what you need to multiply 2 by in order to get to 17. There’s no whole number that I could put here th…

I guess we should start with Dubai Watch Week. I just watched your panel discussion, and I think a lot of people would be surprised to see high tech being matched with watchmaking. Do you think people are surprised by that? Well, I think it’s high time c…

Multivariable chain rule and directional derivatives

So in the last video, I introduced the vector form of the multivariable chain rule. Just to remind ourselves, I’m saying you have some kind of function f, and in this case, I said it comes from a 100-dimensional space. You might imagine, well, I can’t im…

Justification with the intermediate value theorem: equation | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

Let g of x equal one over x. Can we use the intermediate value theorem to say that there is a value c such that g of c is equal to zero and negative one is less than or equal to c is less than or equal to one? If so, write a justification. So in order t…
