i love how that black chick was calling him disgusting in that protest video he's actually done great things

[@karinneeskens]

ppl like her are the reason trump got elected.

[@franj27]

Yes, maybe because you are a disgusting fascist indeed. You all are the real fascist. Fucking pigs.

[@CzechRiot]

That black chick is one inch from the type of "black people" who overpopulate prisons.

[@Molly-iw1rc]

You can be disgusting and do great things at the same time, it's actually common in this field for people to do great research and be not great lol

[@Roll587]

I love his enthusiasm.

[@valentina_politova]

Это одно из самых гениальных объяснений процессов, происходящих в обществе. Я не знаю, что произошло в Йельском университете 14 лет назад. Но профессор из этого видео достоин всеобщего уважения. Это очень крутое объяснение ❤

[@adinfinitum000]

Safe-space & trigger warning freaks/fascists/crybullies here 's your nemesis the great Nicholas Christakis.

[@alexgaggio2957]

How?

[@hplatt1005]

Yale. Halloween costumes. Look it up.

[@alexgaggio2957]

What does that have to do with the talk, though? From my understanding, he does a great job of explaining how social systems can function and perpetuate itself, a theory integral to understanding how oppressive systems can still exist without overt laws or top down action.

[@aguyinavan6087]

He was the professor at Yale that was kicked out because it scared the kids to have the suggestion that they could wear multi-ethnic costumes.

[@Molly-iw1rc]

​@@aguyinavan6087 so he suggested that people should wear inappropriate Halloween costumes? I want to assume this has to do with doing black face and other offensive costumes. It's sadly common that professors of these subjects have little understanding of different levels of oppression, which is why it's important to encourage interdisciplinary experiences and diversity in these spaces.

[@peterflack9933]

Thank you Nicholas. I have been given the book "Blueprint" for my birthday, I was interested in the JRE podcast with you and him. It was inspiring I couldn't help but think of A.I. and the importance of 6 degrees of connection. In the psychic medium world if you believe in the afterlife there is "connection".

[@Philosonista]

A credit to the force for Yale. They should work hard to make sure he doesn't resign.

[@GaeasBlessing]

Too late, sadly. Though I imagine he's a lot happier now!

[@Roll587]

GaeasBlessing He's still at Yale, just not in an administrative role.

[@wbuist]

This is how true collaborations work, the connection between collaborative groups are fundamentally different to the connections between co-operative groups, There's a lot of merit in the argument that what the world needs is more connections, and it definitely needs a more collaborative spirit.

[@suckmecok]

I just saw the Yale video and was completely blown away by the mob of angry snowflakes. But I'm far more fascinated that he anticipated and described the phenomena of generation snowflake long before it ever appeared on campuses. I also wonder if any of those students will ever reflect back on their behavior and appreciate that their outrage was learned via their social networks.

[@baronvg]

Peter Jones I can only hope that there is hope (lol) for these young people who try so hard. I hope that one day, when they order and wiser, that the realize how horrible they were and youths. Some of the stuff I see from the. Are so cringe worthy and I hope they look back and cringe along with me.

[@BlackMetalSwan]

This guy's right. More social connections are a good thing. I saw a study that said people with more close friends live longer and happier. I used to live in the US and its difficult to meet people there: people look at you like you're crazy if you dont know them and start talking to them. I live in Europe now and its a lot easier to make new friends here.

[@TheRugbyaddicted]

If you read his book ''Connected'' (which I strongly recommend) you will see that all the characteristics that designate someone's personality depend both on the genes that inherits from his parents AND the social network in which he/she lives and acts.

[@tweaker1bms]

Is it really genes though, or social behavior that's being "inherited", as in learned, from their parents? Would be good to cross check this with families of adoption.

[@rarrmonkey]

I keep my friends separate. Maintaining friendships takes effort and people within a single group provide the same benefits, people from different groups can provide a grater range of benefits.

(1/2) I think the full worth of this talk was expressed in his last single statement. The rest of it appears to be the discourse of someone who realized he was able to chart what is known intuitively. While this type of information may be valuable to someone who seeks to influence or utilize a social structure, such as for marketing purposes (i.e. consider the group as a dommodity), it doesn't address the underlying reasons for a social structure's exisence. He does address...

[@valentina_politova]

Объяснить словами какое-то интуитивное известное знание это и есть гениальность. Все люди знали, что яблоки падают вниз, но Ньютон объяснил это словами и назвал законом. Так и здесь. Профессор объяснил словами, объяснил принципы, привел примеры одинаковости взаимодействия между молекулами и сообществом людей. Это и есть гениальность.

[@giu7015]

I mean, he is a genius. I am a bit shocked. He studied and discovered something that I have never even imagined could be studied. 11:12 - 11:39 : this part really gets me. This is amazing

When I started watching this it had 1 view. I've reached the end, now its got 204! Nice talk. Explains a lot about our socially interconnected world.

The strength of each connection I feel is something that was not covered in these models and in this methodology. I feel this is essentially important.

[@harleynanda]

@liberationn15 I caught that mistake as well, particularly when discussing the correlations regarding obesity. The weight of a friend can have absolutely no bearing upon a relationship, let alone the weight of a second-tier friend of theirs. Social relationships can exist on the internet wherein two or more parties can have no idea what the others' physical status is, or even what they look like.

[@harleynanda]

@XaneCrazy (1/2) I agree that social norms can tend to impose some selective criteria for associations, particularly within certain groups (such as age groups), but such information is only relative to influence upon data distribution within a given sample. You may determine where obesity tends to occur within the population from this data, but the presenter is instead concluding a general axiom that 'because a friend of a friend is obese, it therefore increases your ...

[@TashJonesUk]

@mohamino that is a brilliant poem that sums this lecture up!

[@MHerskind]

@vraciudude Take into account, the use of electronic communication, especially the use of texting as a substitute for personal interaction. The use of emoticons suddenly serves as a direct link to our emotions and how we feel about certain situations. It is as if we have neglected the need of personal communication and found a way to replace it by electronic communication. Facebook, texting, twitter, email etc all fall under this.

[@DeepDuh]

the last sentence was a bit mehh. 'what the world needs now is more connections'... i think we're already in a world, where it is easier than ever before to get and sustain connections (because of the internet). i would change this catchphrase into sth like 'now we have more connections than ever before. let's use it to actually spread good ideas'.

[@77777aol]

Deep Duh : Absolutely. From my earlier post above : There is a principal named 'Dependant Origination' denoting that all life is inextricably linked. In essence all life is a microcosm of the macrocosm. In other words we are the universe in miniature. As this reality always exists, how do we 'nourish and sustain' this network, whether obvious to us or not ? The key is inner transformation, sometimes referred to as 'Human Revolution'. In order to become happier we have to raise our life state, or life condition, and in so doing we transform our life and so contribute to the welfare of self and others. As our life and environment are inseparable, the good we do for others comes back to us and the good we do for ourselves benefits others; that way we live without regret. The 64,000 dollar question is how do we raise our life state and what is the most effective way to sustain such a process ? Courage, wisdom and compassion are characteristics innate in all life and likeminded people in the spirit unity to create value with the vision of a sustainable and responsible world are all part of that answer and response to what is so sorely needed in this world today. That includes treasuring the person in our immediate environment and rekindling one's unique qualities and talents to make our respective communities, and beyond, a meaningful place to exist.

Great talk except for the conclusion. Networks are definately extremely powerful but it should be obvious they are a mixed blessing.

[@orangeullr]

I wonder what algorithm they used for this. There must be some NLP going on here, but how is happy and unhappy measured or obese and not obese? I think he needs to emphasize more on his research methods so we can understand types of errors that he can run into. I'm seeing false positives here.

[@HiAdrian]

@BaileysBeads And i think it's mainly abundance of food without necessity for the individual to hunt/farm it. The people who grow fat nowadays based on their metabolism (genes) could conceivably have had an advantage in the times of scarce food supply.

[@Da1NOnlyTrueDaniel]

@shynic I think he was speaking a little loud because he was nervous to present but excited about the ideas he was presenting. Nothing wrong with that. Do you rather have people with good ideas that aren't the best speakers not speak at all? Surely you don't.

There is a principal named 'Dependant Origination' denoting that all life is inextricably linked. In essence all life is a microcosm of the macrocosm. In other words we are the universe in miniature. As this reality always exists, how do we 'nourish and sustain' this network, whether obvious to us or not ? The key is inner transformation, sometimes referred to as 'Human Revolution'.

'A rising tide raises all ships.'

[@bavwill]

@bavwill He's right though in one sense about getting connected. It creates more options, helps to expand people's awareness of things and softens some people's fear of different lifestyles.

[@helenateresinhareinehrstof874]

As redes sociais dominando as interações entre as pessoas.

[@Tsumaru000]

@liberationn15 Hence why he mentioned the three ways it could be interpreted, with only one (induction) implying causation. He followed this up by saying there was evidence of each at play, although he didn't go into details. People trying to be smart overplay the "Correlation does not imply causation" card to the point where they seem to believe correlation never coincides with causality, which is clearly far from the truth. Don't fall into that trap.

[@77777aol]

Tsumaru000 : Excellent point ! Everything exists because of causation, or cause and effect. This law, of cause & effect, underpins all laws - the inseparability of mind and body, life and environment, legal and moral law; which the latter two are man made. [My other post above : There is a principal named 'Dependant Origination' denoting that all life is inextricably linked. In essence all life is a microcosm of the macrocosm.

One thing is for sure - the last thing the world needs now is more connections as human's cognitive abilities don't allow to process the noise produced by the existing social networks. Poeple need more time alone to connect to themselves and having a quality reflection.

[@harleynanda]

@JohnZobac I think we are having a semantic discussion here, revealed by your use of the term "Just". Statistics are an observation, only expressed in numerical or graphic means. I disagree that commonalities are truly evident only through statistics. Statistics makes information easier to analyze or work with, particularly so if the subject matter is complex, but the point of my initial comment is that this particular subject matter is not complex, is easily observable, and is rather innate.
