Really interesting - thank you for uploading and to Nick for sharing his experiences.
Superb talk by Sir Max - having read his book, I recognised that his talk could only be a summary and I recommend his book unreservedly, including for his mature reflections on the broader lessons about leadership and the relatively cosmopolitan outlook of President Kennedy (for all his imperfections). As Sir Max says, it is unlikely that most subsequent Presidents would have resolved the crisis as successfully. I agree also with his answers to the excellent questions from the audience. Thank you very much for sharing this.
'Narcotic Culture: A History of Drugs in China' - Dikotter, Xun, and Laaman - an essential read regarding the myth of the opium plague
It is highly likely that the Phoenecians reached Mesoamerica around 950 BCE. Also, the Vikings reached the Americas long before Columbus, and the Basques reached North America long before the Vikings. The Basques may have received their "rudders" from the Phoenecians. The Phoebnecians were the root of all Celtic cultures in Europe.
I'm amazed at how the physics community has been able to accept the ridiculous concept of quantum weirdness! You really have no idea! The double-slit experiment has been grossly misinterpreted. There are no waves, nor particles. The measurement problem is a HUGE misconception. There is no wave collapsing into particles. Light is not a wave, there is no interference. It's actually simple reflection. The detector is simply detecting reflected rays, hence the confusion with "particles". Superposition is a fantasy. It is not a real thing. It's the conclusion of clueless irrational minds. There is no superposition, no quantum entanglement, and there will be no quantum computers.
About QM physicists are worried when does the wave collapse? or when is the measurement is made. When everything in physics is uncertain, these are trivial.

Virtually silent on world affairs. That is no wise man.
John gray is a dove, a propaganda mouthpiece for the establishment.
Twit.
At the end he says, "That's a very positive spin on it." Is that up or down, and in which basis?
Great presentation. Thank you for summing it up in such an easily understandable manner that recognises how far we still have to go but how quickly fundamental understanding will seep it’s way into a magnitude of sectors and applications.
New technologies, ❤new❤ research tools. BIG SCIENCE doesn't want to eliminate the *BIG MUD* of noise in fundamental optical experiments. WHY? Let me suggest for schoolchildren and students on one's own to measure the Universe, dark energy, black holes, etc. To do this, I propose two practical devices. «laser tape measure *+reference distance* 1,000,000 m”» and «Michelson-Morley HYBRID Gyroscope». I am writing to you with a proposal for the joint invention of a HYBRID gyroscope from non-circular, TWO coils with a new type of optical fiber with a “hollow core photonic-substituted vacuum zone or (NANF)” where - the light travels 250000 (In a laser tape measure, the length of the optical fiber is fixed at 1000000 ) meters in each arm, while it does not exceed the parameters 84/84/84 cm, and the weight is 24 kg. Manufacturers of “Fiber Optic Gyroscopes” can produce HYBRID gyroscopes for educational and practical use in schools and higher education institutions. Einstein dreamed of measuring the speed of a train, an airplane - through the Michelson-Morley experiment of 1881/2024, and only then would the experiment be more than 70% complete. This can be done using a fiber optic HYBRID gyroscope. Based on the completion of more than 70% of Michelson's experiment, the following postulates can be proven: Light is an ordered vibration of gravitational quanta, and dominant gravitational fields adjust the speed of light in a vacuum. you can make scientific discoveries; in astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology, higher theoretical physics,... (We are not looking for ether, we will see the work of gravitational quanta) The result is a «theory of everything» in a simple teaching device and a new tape measure for measuring the universe.

Precise predictions yes but noone agrees about the physical interpretation of quantum mechanics. You seem to be claiming that there isn’t a problem here when quantum mechanics doesn’t describe physical reality.

Such a pessimist. Then admits to writing for the guardian 😂
I beg to differ. I find Sir Max's lectures as engrossing as his books. Indeed, his lectures serve as an excellent addendum to them. Plus, they're free.
Can I add an embed link, from this, to part of my website about Lord Tylney?
I would very much like this man to go on The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast to challange him.
A BIG question: Did the Phoenicians...or the Minoans...or Egyptians reach North America and were they the ones that mined the copper in and along the shores of Lake Superior?
AC Grayling being the other philosopher is insignificant and meaningless.
Amplify please?

Axial age meaning a pivotal age.
Hastings writes much better than he speaks. He offers considerable wisdom about our contemporary situation.

You seem to have missed the entire point of the video.
Thanks!
Damn shame Monty's capacity didn't approach either the ability or professionalism of Ramsay
What a great and fitting event to celebrate the pure talent of a true creative artist, who has given so much joy to those lucky enough to have found his work or witnessed him performing. May your tuning never falter and your strings last forever, long may you prevail Kevin Brown 👏👏👍💪👊😎
This is happening because of the false propaganda of multiracialism and Judeo supremacism which wasn’t talked about
Tedious presentation.

I found it disturbing that Grey adopted Collingwood’s title but never distanced himself from Collingwood - you should know what I mean - if you have read Collingwood’s advice on bullying and lying in politics. To me Grey maybe understood Russian and China but did not understand England. I would start the clock with Bacon not Hobbes, and see a slow crawl towards scientific enlightenment and democracy which really reached a peak with universal suffrage in 1928, pushed by Mill, Russell etc. Keynes, like Collingwood, was terrified of democracy and was actively working to undermine it before it even started. That is undeniable, but Grey seemed completely blind to it. From this outing he seemed to have (correctly) rejected the frying pan of complacency in Fukuyama, but only in order to (disastrously) jump into the fire of arbitrary denial of scientific and social progress served up by Kuhn. The both of them rather deliberate corollaries to Keynes

Yes, they did and it isn’t easy to get “archaeologist” to come look at artifacts of a possible burial site on my entire block. Finely etched with laser precision small rocks with script writing that “academia” teaches natives did not have written language so then whose writing in these stones are these? Is it Aramaic or rather Amarica and the letters switched so rest of us dummies continue believe we are a new world discovered by the Vatican sponsored murderous conquest continue to be grateful for their discoveries. They were pirates or cartel who continue to plunder under the guise of this corrupt federal government. The robber barons didn’t build the mosques in St. Augustine during back to back wars with a shortage of materials, men to build who are experts in sacred geometry. Why does no one want to talk about the elephant in the room? Do you think the Seminoles w/ their Berber/Amazigh flair and crescent shaped medallions are indigenous? Maybe they are and maybe the story is backwards and some catastrophic occurrence drove them from here to the pillars of Hercules to settle in the Levant. That would explain how Egyptian mummies with traces of tobacco and cocoa(the nose candy type)in the repeated tests done by “academia” scientists. The containers I have collected these artifacts in smell strong of tobacco. There’s even a fist size rock with muslin wrapped around held by a crimson paint and I found a similar pattern online article about a Phoenician dye factory. One museum did reply back with, “provenance cannot be verified so not research worthy”. Ok, sorry did I accidentally contact Sotheby’s to sell Tang Dynasty vases? My bad…..delusional highfalutin distorted view of self museum director associated with central Florida university….so, I will wait for interested persons who won’t try and keep information from public knowledge… and no I don’t believe the fictitious agenda of holy books stating they were sacrificing babies. That is another distortion so the reader is unempathetic to their struggles and is it a bull they worship or the sacred cow similar to the Egyptians and Hindus consider important to pay homage to the female and respect motherhood. I speak from first hand knowledge of the incompatibilities of two different blood types during childbirth. These women didn’t have the life saving rhogam that I received 5 times with only two full term caesarean’s. Why would they throw babies into a fire yet have graves for them? Anything else you need to know? It appears I’m full of answers and not academic bull 💩
Thank you for this posting. Much appreciated. Watching on May 27, 2024, China has Tiawan boxed in and is threatening America to stay clear.
I noticed recently as an avid searcher for new philosophy books that John Grays books that used to be a staple have all disappeared ? Has he been cancelled?
Never crossed your mind you are not good at looking for books?

could there be any more important video on KZread than this? I mean the topic and its significance?

It seems like Caesar as a title was the preferred destination until maybe the 2nd Century. Why else would Suetonius write the 12 Ceasars instead of the 11 Augusti? At the very least for a while the terms were interchangeable. I guess you could point to Hadrian because he explicitly makes sure that Marcus Aurelius is named Caesar and at that point it's the junior emperor title, which he holds for most Antoninus's reign as his adopted son and heir to the throne.

Sounds interesting. Will the conference talks be recorded, please?
Yes, each section of the conference will be recorded. More info on the day can be found here: www.brlsi.org/john-herschel-the-last-polymath/
Excellent. Thank you Sir.
Someone should have asked him about the role of Islam in the West in the next 50 years.
He's talked about that a lot in his other interviews/talks/lectures.
It will be the ‘running the country’ role.
I’m predicting the next lethiathan in Britain will be an Islamic one. Liberalism will fall to anarchy and then Islam will start chopping hands and restore order
Good talk, much appreciated.
