Associate Professor @UninaIT #DICMaPI. Statistical Mechanics of Soft Materials Group.

[Radha Tripathi @Radha_AI]

A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT.

He knows his time is running out.

So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour.

He died 5 months later.

This is that lecture.

The most important hour you'll watch this week. 👇

[Allen Braden @allen_explains]

A professor at MIT spent his life studying uncertainty.

Near the end, he compressed everything into a single one-hour lecture.

No buzzwords. No heavy theory.
Just a clear explanation of how prediction really works.

Not long after, he was gone.

This is that talk.

The idea at its core is simple but powerful:
prediction isn’t about being certain
it’s about understanding probabilities

Most people will scroll past it.

A few will see it and start thinking differently.

Save it.

Perché ignorare la cultura scientifica è pericoloso? Perché significa non essere più in grado di capire quel che succede nel mondo, non saper “leggere” il proprio tempo. La cultura classica e quella scientifica continuano a rimanere separate, o almeno quella classica continua a ignorare i valori di quella scientifica. […] Per troppo tempo abbiamo parlato di “due culture”. In realtà ne esiste una sola, che deve saper fondere il patrimonio umanistico con quello scientifico. Perché solo chi riesce a navigare in entrambi i mondi può contribuire a scrivere il futuro con intelligenza, responsabilità e creatività.

[Luca Bizzarri @LucaBizzarri]

@andst7 Ma non crede che questo sia un problema? Sapere o non sapere cosa succede in una parte del mondo dipende (e dipenderà sempre di più) dalla volontà o meno di una persona di fare in modo che si sappia. Non lo trova pericolosissimo?

Hypocritical and quite ridiculous — i.e., fully in line with the dominant mood in much of the modern scientific community.

[Luke Glowacki @HSB_Lab]

The editors at @Nature must be living in an alternate universe to think this is going to help the credibility of science in any way. Just say no.
