Evil Tyler: Hi I have 0 years of experience in the coal industry, I know everything about it but I won't tell you

"Deadass" has been common slang for about 20 years, meaning "in all seriousness". Usually used for surprising claims, such as "She deadass punched an alligator."

Hi, as a bio student I want to tell you about nomenclature changes. Domains really did show up in 90s and thought about in schools today, but it's a long journey to rewrite classifications, especially in biology, where something changes every year. We are thought the nomenclature from couple of years ago, because it's impossible to relearn everything in a month, and make new textbooks every time something changes. So, when you graduate the uni and start working in biology as a scientist you need to adapt something you already know just once. In example of ever-changing field, we used entomology books from 80s-90s on our field practice this summer, and so much about nomenclature have changed! Some bugs changed genus, some were discovered, some changed the name, and so on. So yeah, it's not as stable as physics of chemistry

I'd definitely recommend Sam's "obscure obsolete inventions" or "animals in space" videos

holy he did listen to my reco nc. edit: <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="94">1:34</a> yes

Also the sauron guy joke was making fun of like gen z redditors XD

“Donkey Kong’s Donkey Dong” got me dying

im gonna recommend lets game it out again. both his satisfactory series and his final raft video feature nuclear energy at points

DONKEY KONGS DONKEY DONG 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I am dying Hooly shit bro

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="83">1:23</a> His laugh 💀

I'm really glad for your channel. I started my college life in 2017 because I was really into programming, but failed Networks Engineering HARD. Still, now that I found my niche on japanese literature, translating it and writing about it, I always feel great seeing people from one very specific genre in sciences getting into another completely different. Science is such a major topic that it feels like a world between chemistry and biology, even though they share 99% of the same dna.

I'm glad you actually prepared a small presentation on various units relative to nuclear exposure and such. So many people would just watch a video and say "that was cool", but you had a plan of how to make a meaningful contribution the entire time.

This one had me heaving with laughter, especially the Donkey Kong thing. Fully understand that you had to stop the video for a bit, and recollect yourself😂🤣 Keep up the good work. Your videos are a treat to watch.

This is so wholesome, I love your content

I will never stop telling people about Heteropoda Davidbowie. It's a huntsman spider (Heteropoda), which are cool, and it got the species name Davidbowie because it is bright freaking orange like David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust character's hair, and looks like it's got similar facepaint too. It's also fluffy. A fluffy spiderbro. No, they aren't dangerous to humans, physically. They are just big and fast AF like huntsman spiders tend to be, so they might be dangerous to your mental health 😅

I mean this entirely as a compliment, you definitely look like a nuclear engineer

Phylogenetics is genuinely so frustrating and was a tough part of my undergrad. My biochemistry and neuroscience degree needed phylogenetics for some reason lmao

Just found your channel last night and have been trying to catch up on your videos. Want to say that you're awesome. One of my favorite channels that I think would be interesting to see reactions to would be Joe Scott. He's kind of all over the place, covering everything from science to history to cults. His whole channel is good but I think a couple that might be interesting to get your take on is one he did about a month ago on the so-called Bell Island Boom titled "One of Canada's Biggest Explosions has Never Been Fully explained" and one about Glorida Ramirez, titled "Why Did This Woman's Blood Produce a Toxic Nerve Gas?"

I'd have to assume "going nuclear" is closer in relation to nuclear weaponry than the energy, but I get your point.

Neat, I like your nuclear trivia. I considered joining the US Navy in my early 20's to play with nuclear reactors, but since I was born in Russia I'd need a letter of recommendation from a senator to work with the reactors. So, my potential nuclear career ended up going nowhere and your content is something of a blast from the past.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="316">5:16</a> This was super interesting and i really enjoyed the digression. Its nice to not only see your reaction to the video but also to learn something as well. I study history and linguistics so I don’t have much understanding of anything to do with nuclear physics other than the basics. A lot of viewers might not have appreciated it but I really enjoyed that little tidbit you added!

Now THIS is actually good reaction content

My favorite early American scientist is Constantine Raffinesque -- a Frenchman born in Constantinople who made his fortune in Sicily then came to the US. He wrote a letter to a scientific journal describing his idea of the place of the solar system within the Milky Way galaxy, based entirely off his observations of the night sky and drawings of spiral galaxies he'd seen astronomers publish. Anyway, he once walked the length of the Ohio River, finding and naming the species of fish within it -- then walked back to Lexington overland, naming species of plants as he went. He caught a lot of heat in journal letters for creating a new species name for what others considered just minor variations or geographical variations -- his response was to point out that these minor variations and geographic variations are how new species develop. This was in the 1820s, almost 40 years before Darwin. Only a few of Raffinesque's names survive, and a couple of new species have been named for him, but thanks to a bit of fraud he either perpetrated or was caught by, his reputation took a big hit during his life. The fraud, BTW, was to support his idea that Native Americans came from Asia...

The one I learned was “King Philip Came Over For Group Sex…” for the taxonomy list…

So happy I stumbled across your channel

In the tarantula hobby, it is more common to refer to our collection by their scientific name instead of the common name. I still have to look up the name of my balfouri to remember what the common name is.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="95">1:35</a> Yes we love seeing your reactions. I'd watch you watching the one about improbable tales of survival for that reason. I don't think it has anything to do with radiation but uhh workplace safety gets mentioned? I imagine that's important in a nuclear plant

The vibe switch ups at the teaching session lmao

Been binging these and I love the nuke knowledge keep it up

I love Sam O Nella I hope he doesn’t go on a super long break again

Yooooo no way, I was just watching your videos yesterday and a new one pops up.

These things make my day!!!!! Thanks!!!!

I am sure there are some animals named after Uranium or something. Just gotta find em.

Loving these reactions, good stuff!

This guy loves his job to the point that he can't stop talking about it. That's the kind of guy you want working in that field to be fair.

So what really separated life back when it was just the basic Linnaeus system of taxonomy was cells. One cell, you were a Prokaryote, and more than one, you were a Eukaryote. These are still used today. While the term Domain was not yet coined, it still did exist. Darwin further improved on the Linnaeus system, but he failed to distinguish the difference between archaea and bacteria. He lumped them together as archaebacteria. In the late 70s, it was Carl Woese and colleagues who proposed that there were actually three domains and not just two. They were the first to look inside the cells of Archaea and Bacteria to compare their nucleotide sequences to realize that while physically similar, they were actually very different. So the domain rank is not new, but the three domains system is new. I can get a bit more into this as well. I must also mention that microbiology and cellular evolution are not my fields, so take what I say with a grain of salt. My info might not be up to date. All life that we know of is related to LUCA. If there is some life that isn't, we have yet to find it. From LUCA, we see the development of three unique levels of life. Eukaryotes are the bigger mystery of the three. It is pretty clear that Eucarya did not evolve from Bacteria. Eucarya and Archaea share significant homologies throughout their critical information systems of DNA replication, RNA transcription, and protein synthesis. These information systems are the most critical and least changeable components of cellular life and are considered the best guide to mapping deep phylogenetic relationships. There is an article that was written in 2014 entitled 'Origins of Eukaryotes: Who are our closest relatives?' that goes into that fairly well. There are two models of the Eucarya/Archaea relationship. First is that they evolved in parallel from a common ancestor, or secondly, that the Eucarya emerged from the Archaea. These are the Three domains hypothesis and the Archaeal host hypothesis, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses of informational systems tend to favor the latter hypothesis. For more information, you can check out a paper entitled 'A congruent phylogenomic signal places eukaryotes within the Archaea' published in 2012 However, a major difficulty of this thesis is that the cell membranes of Eucarya resemble the membranes of Bacteria much more than those of the Archaea. This is a big deal. Cell membranes are what separate living cells from the nonliving environment, and their integrity is absolutely essential to life. For the Archaeal-host hypothesis to be true, Eucarya would have to evolve from having an Archaeal-type membrane back to a Bacterial-type membrane. On its face, this is highly implausible. Because of lateral gene transfer, every domain has examples of genes inherited from each of the other two domains. Some of these transfers are very ancient with no pure line of descent of any domain independent of the others. At some point, it may simply be impossible to point to one line as being ancestral to another. As it stands currently, the origins of Eukaryotes remains a non-validated hypothesis. We can say for certain we didn't evolve from Bacteria, but we simply don't know if we come from Archaea or if we share an ancestor yet. Some new information on this subject could have come out since my cellular evolution education, but I didn't find anything major when I searched.

Binged your whole channel, the content is nice

Imagine being the guy in the late 1930's bragging and showing off his Hitler letter to everyone he knows... it'll be awkward by the water cooler after that... might have to work from home.

Love this reaction/explainer kind video

I had to use Rutherfords in a few practice equations in Junior year chemistry last year. Loved that teacher, hated the class.

Day 4 of asking if Mr Folse likes beans even though he already answered.

I would be interested in your thoughts on a short video. Its about a guy that supposedly got his hands on a fuel rod bundle. Video is called least radioactive 4chan user by Frauded. In the video some math was done to calculate how much of a dosage the guy took just from taking a picture of the rods.

So, let's talk about Domain. Domain is the top of the tree and there are three of them and it relates to what kind of cells you're dealing with. The three domains are Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukaryota. All the big multicellular life forms are Eukaryotes. These are cells with a nucleus inside and organelles bound by membranes (i.e. mitochondria and chloroplasts). Eukaryote cells are by far more complex than the other two domains of life, but sometimes evolution is like "if it aint broke" and so those simple bastards are everywhere. Bacteria are simple cells with free-floating genomes instead of nuclei. Some are good, some are bad, you probably know a lot about them. Archaea are like bacteria except that they have some slight differences that only bio nerds really care about and also they are adapted to live in unbelievably harsh conditions. They are often called "extremophiles" because of their love of environments like deep ocean vents and the icecaps. There are probably Archaea living in volcanoes but I don't know for sure. While I'm on the subject I should point out that classifications are based on family relationships and not just arbitrary similarities so even though tardigrades, aka "water bears" can live in very extreme environments they are not Archaea, they are Eukaryotes and are in fact animals. The Kingdom level is also a bit of a mess. I'm not sure if it even applies to the non-Eukaryote domains of the tree (collectively called Prokaryotes), and in reality there are 20 or so "supergroups" with smaller subgroups which themselves contain some of the classifications we call "Kingdom". For example, Fungi and Animals are part of a group called Opisthokonta within a group called Unikonta. Also, fun fact: Fungi and Animals are more closely related than Fungi and Plants. So if you eat a mushroom and bell peppers pizza, the mushrooms are more closely related to you than to the bell peppers.

Though it would either require a really long video or several shorter videos, seeing your reaction to Wendigoon's video on "The Most Radioactive Man" would be very interesting.

Someone should draw -fur- insect-sonas, for all of these people who has an animal named after them.. Bet they wanted that lol....

Going nuclear cause you're gonna create a fuckton of energy

Thats ehy i love o' nella. He be mad guy,and he never does not amaze and entertain.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="835">13:55</a> the snake being named Bitis cause they bit us reminded me of youtuber Chipflake once saying that the only french word he remembers is /word for swimming pool and I don't know french/ piecien cause it's something you piss in

Im not gonna go nuclear, IM GONNA GO COAL POWERED!!

Id recommend lazerpigs video about broken arrow incidents(lost nuclear weapons). he also talks about the dubious credibility behind the threats of nuclear weapons on the black market.

tyler, get a species of something named after you: name it tylera(something) folsae(something)

Did you know, Red Pandas are actually the original Panda. The Giant Pandas were named pandas because they looked like red pandas. But now the giant panda is known more as THE panda than the real original panda itself

The name for the European brown bear is "Bear Bear Bear", or Ursus arctos arctos.

helle the video was great

When he said 'exposure' at around <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="360">6:00</a>, my brain immediately went "ah yes, tuberculosis."

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="580">9:40</a> I always more associated "going nuclear" with the mental image of using a nuke rather than nuclear power...

Honestly, the problem with dnd is the first level or two kind of suck. I always advocate for starting at level 3

Going Nuclear is referring to the military context of nuclear, as in the use of the most devastating weapon in the arsenal, which currently is a nuke.

So almost nobody knows this, but there is only one animal in the entire taxonomy that got to keep its second name. Tyrannosaurus Rex was originally called Dynamosaurus but due to what page number it showed up on (among other confusion) T-Rex was "first".

going nuclear refers to that thing that happened in japan not that thing that happened in Ukraine

There's a gene that is like...the main foreman for constructing a living thing, it's a homeobox gene (IE it determines the macroscopic shape of the animal) that basically says "Arms go here, legs go there." It's name tho? SONIC HEDGEHOG. No joke! Check it out, it's pretty neat stuff!

Oh man I forgot this was the Donkey Kong episode. Absolutely lost it for a moment

I love this video by Sam

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="641">10:41</a> Sam absolutely flames some random taxonomist who spent years of study and is now known for being a meme in a SoN video.

Fun fact: for some god forsaken reason every kingdom in the tree of life has different rules for nomenclature. The weirdest one in my opinion being the rule of no double names in botany. You will never find a plant with a repetition. In its name, this is called tautonymy and its dirt common in animal taxonomy "rattus rattus" or "gorilla gorilla" BUT! Slight alterations of the spelling such as Ziziphus Zizyphus or Lycopersicon lycopersicum are allowed. Taxonomic rules are dumb

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="600">10:00</a> - we should just replace the phrase "going nuclear" with "going supercritical" as that feels more accurate lol

My favorite scientific names have to be those given to the brown bear and the grizzly bear. They are, respectively, the "bear bear bear" and the "horrible bear bear".

WOAH THE SCRUBSIDE BUTTON DID A RAINBOW WHEN YOU SAID IT ive never seen that before

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="613">10:13</a> “go ahead and give me a lichen”

i think medieval bestiaries might have literally been describing a rhino when they described unicorns, the main thing they missed out was size

This is the "i miss sam so imma watch a nerd watch him because i want to experience the joy again" button

I really like this channel! If you’re taking requests for reactions into consideration, I have 2 good science videos that I’d recommend! The first is “Hexagons are the Bestagons” by CGP Gray. It talks about hexagons molecularly, mathematically, and in the real world. Great watch under 10 mins. The second is very long and a bit gruesome and morbid, called “The Most Painful Death Ever” by Wendigoon. You probably have heard of this case, but a Japanese man working at a nuclear power plant with lax safety precautions experienced the equivalent of a small scale nuclear reactor in front of his arm and part of his body. The 1 1/2 hour video details his decline in his body functioning and it is a gruesome watch, but (at least for the first 45 mins-1 hour) shows how dangerous nuclear reactions can be to the human body and why many safety precautions are in place to make nuclear power plants safe. Might not be the best one to react to, but it could be an interesting longer watch… (edit: I was looking at CGP Gray a bit more and he copyrighted some reactors in the past, so it might not be the best idea.) :(

Sir I just found you and I’m not sure if you have a old camera but that film grain scares me..

As per my understanding, "going nuclear" is more a reference to an application of great force to some opposition or problem, such that that one act of "going nuclear" is wholly decisive. Similar to "taking the nuclear option." Then again, I have a long history of misunderstanding idioms, but only by just a little bit, so your explanation could well be right, and this is just another example.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="494">8:14</a> this is a horsefly too, make that what you will

the "go nuclear! expression was hard to avoid after project manhattan succeded

if I ever have a metal band it's name will be Disintegrations per Second or just Becquerel for short

"Donkey Kong's Donkey Dong" -Sophocles

I believe that going nuckler refers to the nuke and how much damage it dose

Is it just me or does the photo of Sievert at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="426">7:06</a> look like a time traveling Elon Musk?

The engineer might not want to Make Nuclear Great Again, but I want to!

"I dont claim to know everything there is nuclear, but I can certainly drop some knowledge" 🔥🔥🔥✍️

Yep. Words and especially names have power.

Funny thing about that comparison: The plains bison’s scientific name is bison bison bison, meanings you nearly found another example of one.

going nuclear could just mean doing something super energetic

dawg i gotta be real with you, what does nuclear physics have to do with taxonomy?

One of my favorite scientific names is that of the Wolverine. Gulo gulo, which means glutton glutton.

No way you’ve never heard the expression “dead ass”

you make me appreciate all the nerd stuff

My favorite is the red panda, the shining cat, was discovered first, discovered to not be a cat, and then they thought panda bears were a type of panda, learning it was in fact a bear. Taxonomists were really on crack

Domain from what I know is like sorting them into eukaryote and all that so it's understandable that it's debated on cause all animals/multi celled organisms are eukaryote so it dosent really matter unless your talking about bacterium and all that

You sound so much like Sam o Nella ong 💀

This man really didn't get past the first level of DND...

I think the expression going nuclear does not mean powerplant and more nuclear bomb.

He cut the clip when the donkey kong thing came on cause u know the first time he watched it he chouldnt stop lol’ing

Have you considered qatching kyle hills nuclear videos? They are amazijg and very pro nuclear,even some luke his video on the sl-1 reactor disaster, the first nuclear disaster in america

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="61">1:01</a> For quite a while now, we have been noticing that the structured classifications are quite misguided. We usually only use Family, Genus and Species when studying particular specimens nowadays.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="600">10:00</a> that's what a nuke would say

Now I just hope Sam o’Nella does a video on you reacting lol

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="672">11:12</a> There is like diffrent versions of d&d and all play diffrently I like 3.5e as its the most free one But opinions differ you can even play as nuclear emginmer if you want to be fair uranium exits in the d&d world (but didnt get much then get fee mention, and FR had something similar but accurcy is doubhable as it is FR)
