New @scishow.bsky.social episode I worked on! They actually pitched to ME to write an episode about quantum random number generators using Dungeons and Dragons as a framing device. I think it's fair to say I was the right person for the job. Check it out, it came out well!

Congratulations Emma!

Thanks to Isaac Newton and alchemists everywhere, we know a little more about how the world works and we're celebrating that with our Alchemy t-shirt! Grab yours at complexly.store!

New from me at @scishow.bsky.social! In news stories, why do quantum computers look like a 'steampunk chandelier'? Well, turns out: that's not the computer!
(But that's all just setup for my rant at the end about how so much quantum tech is way over-hyped πππ)

An image is split in two. In the bottom left of the first image a bright blue ring appears, slightly fading in all directions, with a small blue dot in the middle. Red and orange waves of gas ripple, arcing from top left to top right. A light blue center appears out of the sea of red, and several bright white dots shine through. In the top right, dark blue gas emanates from the blackness of space.

I always wanted to believe in Blue Zones, or unique parts of the world where there is thought to be a higher rate of centenarians and super centenarians. I had an opportunity to read a ton and write about them in this episode of @scishow.bsky.social π€

Hank! I love @scishow.bsky.social and supported it when I could.
Maybe itβs just me as an aspiring astrophysics nerd, but I yelled βWhat the f*ck!β at the screen at a very specific point in the video.
That a neutrino could run into something so primordial is wild.

This was a really fun one. We wrote about the real science behind an ancient tome said to hold alchemical secrets... And just what does Shannon entropy have to do with it?
