Every lecture by Lawrence Krauss is an absolute gift. I listen to the same lectures many times in a vain effort to better glimpse the range and dimensions of his understanding. I'd love to one day be able to come see him in person, perhaps even shake his hand in gratitude for shining light into areas of my earthly experience which would otherwise have remained unknown. Lets hope he tours Europe soon.

The internet is amazing if used correctly at its best, I often listen to some of the smartest, experts like Lawrence talk about cutting edge subjects 9n their fields and it's a total privilege to be able to do that. It wasn't too long ago that to here these people speak it would take you getting into a top university or travelling a long way to hear such minds, I'm truly thankful To hear experts give public lectures and talk candidly about their subject, it's just great.

One of my favourite demonstrations to explain how a constant speed of light can cause two observers to see things in a different order, that is really easy to understand is this: You get two people to stand an equal distance from you, but have them stood so they are 90 degrees apart if you are at the centre of a circle. You represent the centre of the galaxy, you hold two balls representing stars. You then hold your arms out pointing at each person, then drop the two balls at the same time representing them going Supernova. You then ask them, from their perspective which ball would have gone supernova first. Obviously, it would be the one you were holding out towards them. Despite both going supernova at the same time, over such great distances, the speed of light makes time very subjective.

I'm incredibly grateful to both of my parents for modelling to me that it's not at all a big deal to not know something, and actually a far bigger deal to pretend to know something when you don't, especially the things no one has the answer to.

I began my physics studies at UCLA in 1964 with "texts' being Feynman's Lectures in Physics delivered when he was at CalTech. Within 3 yrs, I was simulating the ammonia molecule's Schrodinger's Equations, Fortran programming it's computations. I was working on terminals next to early speech synthesizing and biomechanial models. Upstairs they were testing the first nuclear magnetic resonators used in today's MRI. Most of what's changed since then is that Americans get MBA and medical degrees, not in the physical sciences or even economics anymore. We live off our past achievements and foreign students in our grad programs.

Rumsfeld was summarizing a theory known as 'The Johari Window,. It is a framework for understanding conscious and unconscious bias that can help increase self-awareness and understanding of others. It was created by psychologists Joseph Luft and Harrington Ingham in 1955. The model is named by combining their first names. It consists of four ' window panes' 1. Things we all know 2. Things we know and no one else knows 3. Things we know we don't know 4. Things no one knows.

This would save them the trouble of repeatedly asking to advance to the next slide. After all, with the advances in AGI these days, such accommodations should be relatively easy to implement.

Lawrence Krauss is such a pleasure to listen to. I love his "I don't know" attitude, just like feynman had. Only zealots think they know all. Good scientists are very well aware they don't know a lot.

Dr. Krauss, you are an amazing thinker and an inspiration to the world. The wonder of science is that everything has not been answered yet. As Newton put it, he was just collecting some pebbles on the shore when an entire ocean of knowledge had yet to be explored.

You are by far the person I quote the most , so much information that is so enlightening and still manage to continue delivering new and exciting perspectives and theories.

Conscience means being aware.

Larry turning into George Burns in "Oh God".

"If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the Universe.” "If your goal was to create human life, you must first invent the Universe.” These statements are equivalent; this talk accepts the first but rejects the second. You can’t prove the Universe was made for humans, or life in general. But if that WERE, in fact, the intended goal, then you would need the entire Universe (or Multiverse, if such a thing exists) to accomplish this goal. Fine-tuning cannot be demonstrated (we don’t have enough information to develop Bayesian priors for such a question), but you cannot simply rule it out because we’ve discovered all these other variables.
