This reminds me of when my parents argued about nothing. One time when I was a kid, during a road trip in which my little sister and I became tired and cranky and bickered near nonstop, my parents tried to teach us a lesson about how silly our arguments were and how frustrating they were to listen to, by interrupting us to have a logical argument about literal nothing. My dad argued that nothing as the absence of something made nothing something, and my mom argued that something couldn’t be nothing because by its definition nothing is where there is not something. In a case with of cookies, by eating all your cookies, you had no or nothing cookies left, but if you ate all your cookies then you also did not have cookies. Unfortunately the lesson about petty arguments my parents were trying to teach soared over my and my sister’s head. We thought the whole performance to be hilarious and the concept of debating literal nothing even more hilarious and spent the rest of the drive engaging in our own increasingly silly and illogical argument about the meaning of nothing and giggling about it. However, the memory of that event stuck with me. When I saw the title of this video, I immediately thought of that road trip and my parents’ argument about nothing. I loved this video and shared it with my sister and my parents, and we enjoyed reminiscing about that long ago silly argument and learning more about nothing. Thank you for giving my family this enjoyable reminder. 😄

I think a big take away is that we're still learning. There's things we don't know, and some things we think are fact that will one day be disproven. I also really liked how you showed how societal values can even impact our understanding of the universe. But to the point - we don't even know what SOMETHING is. The further down we go to find the base 'material' of the universe the more empty space we find. Even the smallest of subatomic particles can only be described (at this time) as basically waves.

When working with variables in programming, there is a concept of a NULL value, or a nothing value. The idea is that zero (for numeric variables) and a string variable that contains no characters (literally nothing between the quotes "") is still SOMETHING. The idea of a NULL value is that you can create a variable and not assign it anything at that point. And you can wipe the value of the variable back to a NULL state. It's useful to see if something has interacted with the variable or if someone's filled out a field on a form. But now we named it, doesn't that make it SOMETHING?

In Javascript we have initialized "empty" variables like 0, "", [], {} that have a type. Then you have initialized variables without a type, i.e. `null`. But there are also uninitialized variables that just don't exist at all, i.e. `undefined`. These are all very commonly used and have different behaviours.

This is an important comment for a point made at the beginning of this video. The way math was done, this thing we often think of as infallible, was different according to different philosophies. Science and math are both philosophy. The way we look at things changes them. Take all of the candies away and you still have air and arms and lungs etc. but you’re left with nothing in regards to candy. Want a unified theory? It’s all in how you look at it.

I have thought over this so many times and it's a weird thing. Because when you think of nothing there is always something, but for nothing to exist there has to be something.

My favorite question to ask drunk people is, "Why is there something rather than nothing?" Then, of course, I finally got drunk enough myself to have the thought that one's notion of something had to exist before one's notion of nothing because I saw nothing as an absence of something. Now I am also thinking that, even if nothing existed in and of itself, since our perception is based on something interacting with our senses, we would have no way to be able to perceive nothing in and of itself just by virtue of the limits of our ability to perceive.

Life is very fascinating and sad, we as individuals being so aware and conscious of the fact of being alive and unique as individuals, so many personalities and great people we are, but don't fear death, see death as the ultimate mystery that we all someday will get an answer to when we get old, and don't forget that we have all already been dead before we were born, being dead is where we truly belong, but most importantly, don't live your life thinking about death, being alive is about living, because no matter how much you think about death you will eventually realize that it's just a waste of time and how ridiculous it is to think about it when you are living, we are not dead until we are dead, and when we are dead that's when we can start to think about it. Also, everything we are made of comes from Earth, and we will leave what we are made of on Earth. But just live now and enjoy life, try to be happy, it's the best feeling in the world, it makes you appreciate what life is, with happiness you counter death so easily, and you will appreciate every living being around you, how fantastic it for us all to share this time together, and who knows, maybe there is something afterwards which might be even better, but until then, we will try to live in heaven already! The particles that makes up us will always be around anyway, don't worry about it, we will always be here together. Live as you will live forever, the only thing that makes sense.

my favorite funfact about "nothing" ? The Boltzmann brain concept. ->due to how quantum mechanics seems to function; it is perfectly possible for say a clump of gold to randomly appear out of nowhere in the middle of empty space. it's VERY VERY VERY unlikely. but possible. any combo, any material, any structure. the larger & more comples, the LESS likely. but never zero. ->in an infinite universe with infinite time this would imply that at some point in time, at some place for no real reason a fully formed entity/brain/person will just randomly appear (and start living). >You name it. If it can exist in reality, it CAN appear out of thin air in empty space for no good reason. The chances of it happening may be 1 over 'near infinity' but hey, the universe is infinite and time likely is too. and "near infinity" is less then actual infinity THEREFORE logically speaking at some point your mom will pop up in random space, with all of her memories and thicc booty and wonder why you still haven't cleaned your bedroom today.

The closest thing to 'nothing', is the classification of concepts that can't exist physically. Absolute Zero, a perfect vacuum, energy removed/destroyed from the universe, etc. Also since concepts can be created, but not destroyed (since the information now exists, but it can be lost/forgotten), time generally goes forward.

BLAISE PASCAL, FRENCH PHILOSOPHER, "PASCAL'S WAGER" Saw this in the Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War loading screens many years ago.

"The empty set is a subset of all sets". Nothing is everywhere!

Thank you very much for the lesson.

The contents of the empty set. Zero on the other hand is a quantity that quantifies the size of the empty set.

It has various meanings, and it depends on the context it is being use. However, it cannot escape that the moment you define it, "something" encompasses it. It is still an information, a kind of configuration, a phenomenon.

"According to most models of physics, there can't be anything outside the universe, because the universe is, by definition, everything." Can someone please explain to me how this is different from the universe expanding into nothing? How is 'not being anything' different from being nothing, and what is the purpose of this distinction?

Something expanding into nothing is like a puddle of water spreading out to dry surface. Not being anything is more like the surface has always been wet and the somethings are the droplets sticking out of the wet surface.

That's the point, nothingness doesn't exist outside of the theoretical, but we made it up imagining the antithesis of everything which is something we can attest to. Just like negative values and perfection aren't real in a strict sense, but you can imagine the concept and work around it.

Example to help visualise it: When we measure curvature of universe geometry it looks like its flat (no curvature, parallel lines stay parallel, angles work like you expect them to) and apparently it suggests that universe is infinite. In this scenario infinite universe expands and is well... still infinite, just distances between points in space grew larger. There can be no nothingness beyond edge of universe if no matter how far you go either direction you will never find such boundary. OFC there is possibility that universe is curved and just sooooo much larger than our observable bubble that we cannot measure curvature, but here I'm at loss about how nothingness would apply and if there could be something beyond universe if size is finite.

This video really helped me to understand Nothingness more

Bakhshali Is my village , IDK about its manuscript ! good to know form you as usual 👍👍

I've been thinking about this a lot. Differences is very important. Temperature, density, such as the ocean, then air, then space.. differences are necessary for every action in nature to occur.

Entropy is crazy too. If you have a bunch of "same", it doesn't do anything. But if you have a bunch of "difference", things happen until it is all "same". That's probably the easiest way I can explain how literally everything in existence works.

Great video! Gotta be a pedant for a sec 🙂 Unless I’m mistaken, pi was originally thought of, not as circumference to diameter, but as the ratio of the AREA of a circle to the area of a SQUARE with a side length equal to the radius. Hence the area formula. I remember this when I brought up tau to my history of math professor. Though, of course, pi was not the standard/conventional symbol until much later.

That was the question which pops in my head all the time for no reason „what is nothing“?

Quintessence the Higgs field? Just love the ladder of progress which circles back around

This reminds me of one dream, a black hole was shooting through the sky and with each time it was closer and closer until it swallowed everything(me including) and I felt... noting? death? I have no way to put it in words, I was just feeling without being able to create any conscious thought

Which off course is too much something to be nothing but strange enough. Your dream ran into trouble trying to represent real nothing, but you were still there. Imagine 10^500 failed universes in the multiverse all without observers. How could they ever be said to be real? Imagine not even one universe, no observers, just nothing. I can't imagine that either.

I have to say, one of my favourite things to think abt is nothing. Idek how, but I was literally speaking to my irl friend abt this literally yesterday... And now it's on my recommended lmao

I can think in nothing. I do it when I want to sleep. I just concentrate on what I'm hearing (cars going by in the distance, mostly) while shutting down my internal monologe (which is hard to do when I'm anxious for example). But I can shut down my brain if it's necessary.

I had this argument with my ex best friend in college. It was the catalyst to our friendship ending. She refused to accept that the idea of “nothing” is completely subjective. She insisted “nothing” was always “something”. I was thinking more philosophical, she was thinking more rational. I accepted that and she wouldn’t. Lol it was the most infuriating conversation tbh.

Thank you for trying to confuse the heck out of me!!

There was a story I once read involving a group of people getting trapped in a hypercube shaped like a house. One person looks out a window and see's nothing. The story takes a moment to explain that what they see isn't blackness or a pure white space, but nothing at all. It's a mind breaking exercise... like imagine transparency with nothing beyond it, forever...

Hah! I thought of this idea myself years ago. :) Another way of conceptualizing it that I came up with was to imagine the whole universe without color - and in this case white and black are also colors. Both approaches paint the same picture, except you can't actually imagine that picture!

That was really good. Thank you

“No matter how hard you try you can’t think about nothing” oh you’d be surprised how much nothing there is in my brain

"Nothing" and "Something" are just words like everything else. We shape reality around the way we think, not the other way around. Reality as it exists and reality as it exists within our own minds are two separate things. Reality itself has no concept of something or nothingness, it's just the way our brains decode reality in a way that seems to make sense to us.

Arguably noumena can be understood as divergences and convergences of the interrelations in nature which cause our phenomenological sense of similarity and difference. Which is to say I agree, yet the two are not logically distinct, beyond a Kantian categorical sense.

@@deepakkumarsingh2900 the brain exists because it was an evolutionary advantage for our ancestors to have increasingly complex nervous systems that eventually resulted in brains.

That's both accurate and useless. The world is far too complex for us to deal with each thing in it so our brains mostly work in abstractions, which are categories, assign words to represent them and reason about those. If you dismiss something because it just words and categories you are dismissing basically all human though and reason. Its not a meaningful criticism or helpful observation unless we are actually talking about how people think.

"Well, it's when people call out at you just as you're going off to do it, 'What are you going to do, Christopher Robin?' and you say, 'Oh, Nothing,' and then you go and do it. It means just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering." "Oh!" said Pooh

YES!!!! This question has been bothering me for years.

Fun exercise and video as always. But a slight correction: nothing is not the opposite of everything; Nothing is the absence of everything.

I'm ngl. I have a lot of existential anxiety. About what we are, how God fits into it all, of how it all fits into His plan. About what nothing could be. If atoms are made of quarks, what are quarks made of. What is the space between atoms and electrons. It gives me nothing short of panic attacks. This actually helps a lot

Nothingness, or just Nothing is so powerful, that it really has the power of Absolute Infinity.

Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea by: Charles Seife is a fascinating book that delves into this subject.
