I don't care if I get in front of somebody for 20 minutes; I could have talked to him for 5 years on the telephone, and that 20 minutes face to face is going to change my relationship dynamic over any kind of telephone call. Being in front of the customer, there's just no replacing it.

During the COVID thing, everybody picked up on Zoom and all these video calls and everything. Obviously, it was much better than not seeing the person, and it's much better than just a telephone call because you could put a face to the voice and things like that. But even this kind of a conversation you and I have, if we were to sit on a Zoom conversation on a video screen, you can't get the people's body language.

You can't really sort of remove any stigma of a thought; you figure out the person's body language, and you're sort of reading it a little differently. You know where you can and can't go in a conversation, where really on a Zoom call you've got the clock ticking. How many more minutes or seconds? You really are in a rush to get off. You're looking at the clock; you're saying, "Okay, I'm just meeting the person ’cause I want to get it over with." You usually know when you're in a shirt and your underwear or something like that; you're not in the same space when you're going to somebody's office.

Your Social Security Card is Insecure

Americans love their independence… a nation of pioneers living out from under the eye of government … (except for all the government). As such, unlike many other countries, Americans don’t have a national ID card… and even the idea of creating one is a po…

Justification using second derivative: maximum point | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

We’re told that given that h prime of negative four is equal to zero, what is an appropriate calculus-based justification for the fact that h has a relative maximum at x is equal to negative four? So, right over here we actually have the graph of our fun…

Secant line with arbitrary point (with simplification) | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

A secant line intersects the graph of f of x, which is equal to x² + 5x, at two points with x-coordinates 3 and T, where T does not equal 3. What is the slope of the secant line in terms of T? Your answer must be fully expanded and simplified. And my apo…

Crossing a Snow Packed River | Primal Survivor

The big danger here is I could fall through, and depending on how deep it is, if it’s deep, that river could suck me under the ice. So, I’ve got to come up with a plan. This is where a little bit of, uh, mountaineering strategy comes in. Get my snow shov…

Inductor kickback 2 of 2

So the problem with allowing this spark to happen across here is if this is not a mechanical switch, we can build switches out of electronic devices as well. This is what we use transistors for, and a transistor is a rather small, delicate device. So if …

LC natural response example

So, in previous videos, we worked out an expression for the current ( i ) in an LC circuit like this, and what we found was that ( i ) is the square root of capacitance over inductance times the starting voltage ( v_0 ) times sine ( \omega_0 t ). And ( \…
