Robert Sapolsky, Ph.D: Humans are Unique Among Living Creatures

[@Mabitesurtaglotte]

I love this man sooo much, his free Stanford KZbin lectures on Behavioral Biology are amazing. Chaos Theory, Religion, Neurology... I wish I was in his class

[@coreycox2345]

I find his lectures mind-blowing, Mabitesurtaglotte.

[@paftaf]

Mabitesurtaglotte Non mais, comment tu peux avoir un nom pareil, et écrire un truc juste?

[@TedOBrien]

I think I'm hooked on Sapolsky. I think I've listened to 6 hours of him. We should get some credits though right?

[@TarunBhatnagarBeautifulWorld]

He is kind of teacher many of us would wish we had. Humorous, depth of knowledge and amazing communicator. Thank you Stanford for making this goldmine of knowledge public.

Thanks for your research. But a big question remains what is the cause and reasons behind these materials and atomic actions and activities. Thanks again.

sapolsky is so brilliant and such a gift

[@Darkmatter321]

I love how he abruptly finishes all his talks

[@DanielBrownsan]

He mentions the _Wellesley Effect_ in this video and in his lectures but there's pretty thin support for it.

[@EmceeWhitey]

have there been credible studies that refute its findings?

[@elenil.5907]

@@EmceeWhitey Most of the literature and subsequent papers in PubMed are refuting the initial experiment by finding biases in in sampling, failure in controls and inflation on results. Furthermore, many studies failed to replicate the original one. Others also attribute it to simple mathematics, meaning that ,eventually, cycles WILL synchronize at some point because of their duration. This doesn't mean that there is a pherormone responsible for this.

Could human consciousness be a Quantum Field? The Royal Institute has a good lecture on Quantum Fields.

Brilliant, needs more research by me. Tomorrow !

[@ソトヤママリアテレサ]

how we use empathy and our use of language make us 'unique' in the animal kingdom we use empathy and language to help market 'Bambi' movies. your dog would wonder why you're crying when Bambi's mother dies in the forest fire, your dog would think ''barkity bark bark, it's just ink on celulloid, there is no Bambi' and social media, don't forget to 'like' this comment.👍something tells me FB knows what it's doing. ❤👍 ☮️🎶-j in southern Japan but i was born and raised in California, from my wife's KZbin with her permission of course. ☮️🎶

If you don't leave a Prof Sapolsky talk, feeling dumbfounded (even if you are already familiar with the content) then you need to get your brain checked outl.

His reference to the Indonesian killings is wrong. He makes it seem as if it was just for the sake of killing when in fact the purpose behind it was anti-communism. He would know since his father was a vidicm of mccarthyism.

[@savnet_sinn]

He made no reference to the cause of the killings beyond the general chaos following the 1960s coup attempt - you completely made that up. If that wasn't bad enough, you failed to recognize that he's simply relating a narrative that was originally written by VS Naipaul. And even if you weren't totally wrong and he *had* misrepresented an ideological conflict, it still has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on the core of the anecdote, which was the use of gamelan to provide a soundtrack to 'elevate' brutality to some grotesque art form.

[@nickjohn2051]

@@savnet_sinn Thank you. That is correct.

[@Paulo-nm1fx]

@@savnet_sinn You're right, he didn't. But he used the same superficial argument that all anti-communist do. "[...]Based on ideology, based on the idea of whether workers should own the factories or not[...]". I think every social relation and politics are always based on ideology, it remains to be seen who it is for and who benefits from it.
