  • A little trippy doodle and it was very exciting.

  • But I wonder howmanypeopleareinspacerightnow.com

  • That is a far out DONG, something you can do online now guys.

  • Forget space, travel through time with the Webster Time Travel Dictionary.

  • Enter a year and find out what words first came into print that year.

  • The word 'virtual reality' first appeared in 1987, Web Page first appeared in 1994,

  • and Gamification in 2010.

  • Keep in mind this isn't the first time these words have ever been used, just the first

  • time they have been used in a publication recognized by Webster.

  • But really who needs all these words! Silly words!

  • There's only 50 in Suess's book green Eggs and Ham.

  • He won a bet it's not a sham.

  • Read the book's word's line by line, the rhymes in there are mighty fine.

  • But done with this?

  • Need an Escape?

  • Then check out all these fractal shapes. Woah there's still rhyming.

  • With Mandelbrot Explorer, endlessly zoom through the visualization of Mandelbrot's fractal

  • equation.

  • Every winding crack leads to more shapes and colors.

  • What's really interesting is that if you zoom in far enough, you'll eventually find

  • another Mandelbrot, known as a Minibrot, which is an adorable name.

  • It can be kind of complex, and it may take a while to finish, so if you need to know how long

  • that'll be,

  • Head over to How Long To Read This.com, enter the name of a book, and it'll tell you how

  • long you need to finish it.

  • You can also take a reading speed test that will show your personal reading

  • speed.

  • It would take me this long to read Ready Player One

  • And look, I get it, reading takes a lot of time, and I'm sure you're a busy person,

  • but is your schedule as precise as these famous creatives?

  • At Daily Routines, you can see the exact ritual of various well known artists and writers,

  • who were known for keeping to an extremely strict schedule.

  • Pablo Picasso went to bed at 3am and woke up at noon, every day.

  • Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently

  • believe, and upon which we must vigorously act.

  • There is no other route to success.”

  • All of the information on this graph can be found in Daily Routines

  • by Mason Currey.

  • Don't believe someone could stick to such a strict schedule every single day?

  • Well, The proof is trivial!

  • Just view the problem as a Cayley graph whose elements are dihedral semigroups!

  • I don't know what that means, but The Proof is Trivial.com randomly generates nonsense

  • comebacks for when you need to show you've got nothing to prove!

  • Just like this head has to prove that it's worth feeding.

  • In Feed The Head, explore this blue man's cranium to discover the secrets within.

  • Feed him different colored pellets to give him special powers.

  • But fading him his own eyeball makes him cry :(

  • Wow that was a lot of things you can do, it feels like we started this so long ago.

  • It's only been 5 minutes??

  • It feels like it's been a year.

  • Well either way, here's the new years music box.

  • Click on the bubbles to change which instrument plays which parts, and click the bubble in

  • the middle to make them all play together!

  • Happy New Year!

  • If you enjoy doing things online now guys then you should also check out the courses on Brilliant.org.

  • Brilliant was nice enough to sponsor this episode and we've mentioned them before and they're amazing they have all

  • these incredible courses on physics, science and math,

  • and puzzles and logic. Things like that. But the one I'm currently doing is a course on fractals

  • Like the Mandelbrot set I mentioned earlier, a fractal is any repeating shape whose parts

  • have the same or similar shape as the whole.

  • Tree branches, shorelines, and some flowers are fractal-like in nature.

  • Brilliant's fractal page goes into a lot of detail so check out the link in the description

  • below to get 20% off for the first 200 of ya that sign up.

  • Maybe it could be a good Christmas present, holiday gift.

  • Uhh yeah well I'm kind of tired from flying
