To further explain what Connor was saying about Math. If one society, Society A, interprets a certain mass as 1kg, while another society, Society B, interprets that same mass as 2kg. That means that Society B's kg is half of Society A's kg. That also means that Society A's kg is twice of Society B's kg. But the mass does not change, just how we perceive it. 15:00 Also, Joey just displayed the idea of stupidity perfectly. In an alternate universe, society would think Celsius as stupid.

Fahrenheit isn't stupid. It was originally set up so that the boiling point of water was a clean multiple of the freezing point, hence freezing being greater than zero. Since then, the numbers have shifted a bit, but that concept makes the scale quite intuitive. Besides, people wouldn't use a system and be happy with it if it was just plain stupid.

Garnt was right about the tail thing with embryos

[@AquaStockYT]

Hearing Garnt accidentally explain xenobiology theories about how an intergalactic species would be *more* competitive than humans not less. Makes sense, theories say we were more competitive than Homo Erectus.

[@that_dam_baka]

The theories always existed. Someone just gave them names. It's not a unique idea. It also makes sense that another species may be evolved from octopus. Tentacle-sama may be real. Don't tell Aki though.

[@nurajannattaslima9853]

2:20 APES DONT HAVE FOCKIN TAILS, but they do have tail bones

[@G.F.SF55]

But Garnt is right tho, we do have "tail" as embryo very early on and for a very short time, but it's true, just it ain't a lizard tale 😂

[@ryuu1853]

Some stuff.... feel free to fact check me :) So what Joey is talking about is something that ND Tyson explained. The value of 99% differs between sources and how precise you are comparing the whole genome, but the value ranges from 95%-99% in DNA similarity. He explained it pretty well tho otherwise. What Garnt is talking about is kinda accurate. It's not a "lizard" tail but a chordate, embryonic "tail" which is really a vestige. Ape itself is a monkey with no tail, specifically. Colloquially, apes and monkeys are the same but really, they're different. Connor's take on 2 functionally, identical, paired organs is a hot one. Bilateral symmetry is a factor , another one is the vertebrate equivalent of imaginal discs. Asshole-ness is not an intellect thing because many other animals just do whatever they want regardless of their known intelligence. Also, keep in mind that intelligence is a human construct; humans defined what intelligence. Plants can very well be assholes so Connor is right about this. Garnt is wrong about wanting to evolve. You don't want to nor intend to evolve. It just happens and you're either lucky and live on or you don't (survival of the fittest). Individuals don't evolve, populations do over time. Joey's take on dumb people dying out is flawed. Ik it's not his thinking but anways, if intelligence is a spectrum and let's say the dumb ones do die out, then there will be a whole new metric of dumb ones. If the top 90% smart people live on, then within that new population of people, the next 90% of smart ones will live on. Connor is absolutely right about the interdisciplinary relationship in math. I'm noticing that Garnt keeps talking about intention. There was no intention behind universal physical constants, it was just discovered that their value remains the same over time. This is proven scientifically and empirically and is thus, rightfully named a constant. The concept 0 was long known - if you have 10 apples and take away 10 apples, you have no apples left. It was invented mathematically to represent reality, namely algebra in ancient times.

[@that_dam_baka]

12:10 Connor knows his people put names to a lot of stuff.

[@grss1982]

When the discussion went on a tangent about aliens I was reminded by this quote from Arthur C. Clarke in my favorite TBS game, XCOM: "Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not. Both are equally terrifying."

[@waterunderthebridge7950]

All animals experience a short/condensed evolutionary history of the forms the species has gone through during embryonic development. This also points to why there’s so much genetic similarity/conserved genes amongst animals: Most of the building blocks are the same due to how we trace most of the living beings on Earth to branching paths in the evolutionary tree. The difference mostly lies in the regulation of how these building blocks are actually structured and used (which is controlled by a comparatively small amount of regulatory genes). An easy to understand simile would be a comparison to architecture: Wildly different buildings (both appearance-wise and function-wise) are actually build with the same basic building materials (e.g. bricks, cement, paint, metal pipes, glass (windows), rebar etc.), just arranged in a different manner with a different blueprint. The materials in this simile are e.g. basic digestive enzymes that are shared among animals while the blueprints are regulatory factors that influence when and how much other proteins are produced.

That doesn't make them smarter, intelligence includes many facets that play into each other to allow for more complexity. While a crow learns to find food on its own I can learn theorem in five minutes from a man who's been dead for hundreds of years.

I Googled “do we grow a tail in the womb.” Although the human tail is completely eliminated at birth, human embryos have a distinct tail during development. Moreover, the human tail is at first relatively long, but the length is then reduced during embryonic development and disappears at the end of the embryonic phase (Gasser, 1975).
