I swore I commemorated Angela in the This Week’s Thing collection but apparently not. I’ve written about some of her videos before and I’ve always enjoyed the way she talks. Here’s some notable videos
- alkali water… with lemon [1:00:25]. No need to explain why this is dumb, but it’s a good way to spend an hour.
Play Video: alkali water... with lemon - a physicist responds: physics has done very little for like 70 years [33:28]. Says person using technology derived from advancements in physics since the 1970s.
Play Video: a physicist responds: physics has done very little for like 70 years - Sexual harassment and assault in Astronomy and Physics [2:00:19]. Not fun but important.
Play Video: Sexual harassment and assault in Astronomy and Physics - who gets the Nobel prize? [1:18:12] which is a great overview on the prize and addresses some of the criticisms of it. Also features a story on the discovery of insulin which is a big yikes from me dawg.
