The $15,000 A.I. From 1983:
Why Do We Put Holes In Our Head?:

Edward Youmans founded The Popular Science Monthly in 1872, and the first issue contained articles on “Science and Immortality and “The Causes of Dyspepsia.”

He had no way to know that the next 152 years of his publication would cover general relativity and the atom bomb.

He couldn’t have predicted the discovery of DNA or debates over the science and ethics of cloning.

What started as a niche monthly journal for a few hundred scientifically-inclined minds is now a YouTube channel that can reach millions, globally, instantly… and all for free.

We’ve been overthinking since 1872 — and we want you to join us.

  The lay offs suck, but were unfortunately inevitable. At least the name will be in good hands for now.

  Thanks, Conrad — it won’t be long, you’ll get some great videos soon. And actually soon, not video game developer “soon.”

Will there be any unpopular sciences shown off on the channel?

  The most popular sciences tend to be unpopular first, until they’re popular, and then they get unpopular again. So, yes!

I Traveled 8,000 Miles For The Camera That Killed Polaroid

Nearly 50 years ago, the Polavision camera blended Polaroid’s revolutionary instant film with on-demand home video – and the result was a landmark advance in analog technology that would become a mystery of science and a winding international journey into vintage tech. Because now, generations after Edwin Land bet his half-century legacy of innovation and…

Because now, generations after Edwin Land bet his half-century legacy of innovation and the company he founded on the success of the Polavision, I need to figure out how to get the thing to work… and only one man in the world could help me.

I traveled to Vienna, Austria to meet Florian “Doc” Kaps – the man behind ‘The Impossible Project’ that saved Polaroid from the dustbin of history. With his guidance and his private store of old Polaroid video tapes, perhaps I would be able to record a modern YouTube video with my vintage Polavision camera.

Through it all, Doc immersed me into his world of analog technology and the philosophy behind his mission to re-integrate analog into our daily lives. We cut lacquer records, we felt the fires of an analog restaurant, and we spent too much time trying to resurrect a relic of the past – because technology, vintage and modern, is all about people.

What if you CAN’T BURP?!

Some people can’t burp… at all. It’s called Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction, and RCD makes life seriously uncomfortable — both physically and socially. There’s an easy, increasingly popular medical fix that unlocks the power of the belch, and it’s actually changing lives. Popular Science: #medical #sciencefacts #science #scienceandtechnology
