Hope you like the content, negative Nancy

There are channels sponsored by whisky, Coca cola, sigaretts and medicinal drugs. By military- industrial consortiums and by countries with dictatorship type of government.. so always we are at risk, and that are we who need to have some common sense and dont criticize such a very good channel that need be sponsored to continue making this superb content.

​@@tamarausher60 Yeah and those suck too also the way sponsors work is that the company will stop sponsoring a channel that doesn't get them any business. comments like these are to make sure the people watching don't go use the service just because they see it on this channel.

​@@tamarausher60first of all, the VAST majority of people knows that alcohol and tobacco is dangerous. But with companies like better help that's not the case, (and it's really serious what they have done) especially when it comes to subscribers/users with disabilities or mental illness and such, they can be very trusting and easy to take advantage of, wich better help does and they have done A LOT more than that. Its disgusting. And listen, this channel has over 50000 subscribers and they have a few other channels with even more, this isn't one or two persons doing all this hard work on their own, this is more or less a company/business, so no, they do NOT "need" sponsors. They choose to have sponsors. And they are ABSOLUTELY at fault for chosing money over their subscriber's health and wellbeing. Betterhelp has done disgusting stuff, inexcusable stuff, and people know this, especially those who choose to work with them like this channel, you always look into your sponsors, especially channels as big as this, and they still choose to support them, that's disgusting. Don't put UKposts channels on a pedestal, even if you enjoy their content, do your research always and please dont support behavior like this, call it out, that's how people grow and this world gets better

The video itself is mishandling information, so it seems thematic.

Fitting..Pseudo intellectual Sponsorship for a channel pushing Satanic Theories as Fact. This is the great deception..Lies lies and more lies to cover Reality.

Absolutely maddening

And they are 10 decibels louder than the video

This is like the main reason I pay for premium. Was ruining my favorite way to fall asleep

true

that's how particle life works, I think we kinda solved where we came from to be honest.

If you mean primordial soup, every scientific experiment and test to try to validate the theory has failed, @@and_I_am_Life_the_fixer_of_all

More likely that this just means the amount of fossilization changed, while the actual animal abundance was more or less the same.

This makes sense! I keep a coral fish tank and I have some marine snails in there. And I have to watch the pH (lots of factors but definitely pH) very carefully

It's true that Darwin thought Wallace deserved more credit for the theory than he ever claimed. He wrote to him “You are the only man I ever heard of who persistently does himself an injustice & never demands justice” (14 April 1869). But Wallace recognized that Darwin's work on the theory not only predated his own, but explored it in much greater depth than Wallace had ever envisioned. Wallace mostly claimed credit for being the impetus that pushed Darwin into the action of actually publishing his long-delayed book. Later, Darwin and Wallace corresponded extensively and shared their ideas freely, each helping influence the evolution of the other's evolutionary ideas, even though those became increasingly divergent over time.

⁠​⁠​⁠@@llanitedaveWow, that is rather heart warming. Also, It’s a little bit ironic because survival of the fittest if (crudely) “applied” to the scenario would predict a far more adversarial approach to their respective academic contributions.

@@SmartWentCrazy. If crudely applied, perhaps. But the concept of "fitness" actually allows for a lot of finesse in the real word. A feature or behavior that is "fit" depends greatly on the local context in the current environment. Big, strong, and confrontational is not always the most successful combination. In humans, reproductive success involves the skill of maintaining interpersonal relationships and cultivating cooperating peers and allies. That quality also has a bonus when it comes to sustaining a civilization.

@@llanitedave All true and it raises an essential about why Darwin was able to develop the theory to greater depth. Put simply, Darwin was a rich gentleman, a member of the ruling class, and Wallace was a working stiff. While Darwin was able to muse in his garden for years, Wallace was in the hot zone trying to make money. In fact, it was only being knocked out for months with a tropical fever that allowed him to put the paper together that shocked Darwin into action. Wallace and Darwin understood that if Wallace came forward as the promoter of the theory, he could quite easily be dismissed, ridiculed, ignored. Whereas Darwin was well-connected with the scientific establishment and would at least get a hearing.

@@robotboy719 That's partly true. Darwin, as a member of the upper class, had a certain amount of credibility from the start. But for the most part, the credibility was hard-won. Darwin's grandfather Erasmus was also a member of the upper class, wrote on many issues, and even had an idea that species might be changeable. But none of his musings got any traction, primarily because in addition to being upper class, he was thought to be a bit of a flake. So even then, there was more to credibility than class. Darwin was already a famous and respected naturalist before Wallace even entered the field, his voyage on the Beagle was already the stuff of legend, and his expertise and scholarship was well-known. The fact that Wallace was a relatively unknown quantity was not merely because of his more humble origins, but simply because he had less experience and less of a track record than Darwin did, a fact which he readily acknowledged. It's true that Wallace's reputation rose greatly because Darwin was his mentor, and its true that Wallace's version of the theory would have gotten very little attention had it not been for Darwin. But it's also true that Darwin's work was far more developed, broader, deeper, more well referenced, and had a much larger store of data backing it up. Wallace's insight was amazing, original, and mostly correct, but it's not unfair to say that Darwin's theory was already largely complete before Wallace wrote him about it, and deserved primary credit.

interesting

Would this have happened as asteroids hit earth bringing new life along with new food available for life in the form of new chemistry or minerals? Making it available to these organisms and emerging life forms ?

​@@moneyandtimefreedom3352panspermia is possible, but would likely have happened much earlier. All life discovered today shares a couple hundred genes which point to a bacteria-like single-celled ancestor -- LUCA

I see the Cambrian explosion more like when a procedurally generated game like Minecraft or Dwarf Fortress makes a new world and starts throwing pure RNG at the wall to see what sticks and then starts weeding out the mistakes.

LOL

now with fraudsters BETTERHELP AKA WORSEHELP LOL

I noticed this too, I wonder if its a new editor because the weird subheadings at the bottom left of the screen are new too.

try 2xing the vid - the music become more interesting and the voice less boring.

The music seems more noticeable and wildy disjointed in this video compared to previous ones. I also listen often when falling asleep (no ads with subscription) and end up listen to each video many times.

If you want good videos to fall asleep to, check out Classic Ghost Stories Podcast.

Yeah, and it can be somewhat distracting too. I use the videos when I play games, and I really enjoy when there’s just low background music that doesn’t change in volume. That way there’s no need to fiddle with it and they just need to focus on the audio quality of said music and the voice. So far there hasn’t been any issues with the narration, but I know of some channels where an otherwise wonderful video gets ruined because the voice is fuzzy, there’s a faint echo or they don’t keep the mic in front of them properly, so their voice changes whenever they move their head. It’s such a shame, cuz it is so distracting when that happens! Although, I suppose there’s less risk of that happening here, since the narrator isn’t on screen and can fully focus on talking instead of looking at the camera.

dong dong dong dong 🎉🎉🎉🎉 happy holidays🤗 ayaw kol😂

A good therapist doesn't give advice or try to run anyone's life. Anyone who does that is playing god.

@@gerardjones7881 What are you talking about? Are you ok?

​@christianhoffman7407 i think they meant to reply to a completely different comment about the sponsor 😂

As soon as I heard about the Ediacaran, my main thought was along the lines of "Whoooa, look, The Original Slime Layer figured out how to coordinate and communicate between cells such that now we've got attractive non-random tissue-like growth patterns! Kids, the world is your oyster, what are you going to do with TISSUES?" And indeed, the Cambrians [etc.] went nuts with this great idea…

The two mysterious are really closely related, so much so they almost can't be discussed separately. Most of the Ediacaran biota can't be related later Cambrian biota, so either most Ediacaran forms died out with no descendants, and complex animal life appeared twice, or there is a lot of missing fossils that bridge the gap between Cambrian and Ediacaran forms. Likely there is a mixture of the two at play. This is not to mention that a lot of cambrian forms are hard to place in the animal family tree as well.

@@Ashitaka-gx2od they're not exactly related they occured at different times under vastly different conditions. The only relation is that in some unknown way, the Ediacaran influenced the setting of the stage for the Cambrian. Geologically and Biologically they are extremely alien to eachother.

@Malconeous Given that they both "dovetailed" off of the nearly billion-year-long Proterozoic era of single-celled organisms is worth noting at least. It's weird. Especially since multicellularity took so long to "evolve" normally, for it to just happen twice in geologically quick succession is suspicious (unless they're related, or, as you put it, one created the conditions needed for the other) One "could" argue that humans created the conditions for AI to spontaniously "evolve," so say in millions of years from now, it would be nessesary to study "ancient humans" AND "AI" together to fully grasp the situation, even though, technically, AI didn't evolve "from" us directly. We'd still be related subjects.

There was a whole episode dedicated to ediacran, it was really nice

Do they like ear scritches and belly rubs?

I noticed that, too. A minor mistake, but worth mentioning.

I honestly wondered if they dropped it with all the other channels going on 😂

@@characterblub2.0 trust me dude…so did I lol that’s why every community post I would just post asking about this channel lol 😂

1:33 hours of video and 95% of it is trash. Either it's the same information available anywhere on youtube (but in a much more concise form) or the narrator just goes on and on with endless questions. In conclusion, a pointless video, neither showing the history and the plethora of theories about the cambrian explosion nor anything new about it.

Thats... what the Cambrian explosion was.

Hold the phone, hundred years of science - this one guy isn't convinced

@Daneki DON'T QUESTION MY RELIGION! (Seriously, don't be silly. Nothing is ever 100% proven in fields like this. Questioning narratives should ALWAYS be encouraged. Even if it sounds goofy at first. That's the heart and soul of scientific freedom.)

​​@@theoldman5896unless you want to make something into a religious argument when religion was never mentioned. Like why even bring it up

​@@Danekiread the response above you

Turn your volume down somewhat

agreed

I unsubscribed because of that.

​@@brainsthecatandhisfellowfe9710that doesn't work when only one of the audio elements of the video is loud at random times. It's not consistent and it's not the ENTIRE video that's too loud, it's just the music that, for some reason, is loud as hell when he isn't talking.

Perhaps.

I'd personally guess that it really was a combination of all of the above as well as maybe some other factors. Maybe that moment was us overcoming a Great Filter and such extraordinary convergences were needed for that jump.

Think radiation and not in the biological sense. Intense volcanism brings up radioactive elements that alter the DNA of existing organisms. Most are fatal, hence cancer, but some are beneficial and you have a modified organism.

@@sizanogreen9900 We're probably the only forms of life in this entire super-cluster of galaxies that miraculously overcame such a ridiculous hurdle of improbably and coincidence. Probably why we're all alone.

And AI too, somehow even gets a mention lol

Not the highest, just some nice pictures and a soft voice. Listen to what is being said and it is not 100% top notch, nor fast paced, authoritive or gritty enough to eliminate the "maybe it happened this way, we don't really know" voice. We know. We know earth was a snowball just before and then eukaryotic life "exploded"... plus hard exoskeletons remember? Perhaps the key is in the evidence that survives. Has exoskeleton chemistry received enough attention?

@@simonmasters3295 I would add that the nice pictures cannot be trusted. at 12:29 they misrepresent an African antelope (and a background that is obviously African, not North American) as an American pronghorn antelope.

​@@simonmasters3295yeah but I mean dudes churning out multiple free documentaries a month that are high quality and very interesting. He really is one of the best channels right now!

@@simonmasters3295Then what is the highest?

Geology had always been very very interesting, what are your talking about?

Which includes us, the human, right? We're all part of something

It's why there is almost certainly life on other planets

Not literally everything. There is a theory nobody seems to have come up with, one that I think is obvious, but I have yet to publish. I end up watching most docs like this, all published papers, and attempt to hear as many lectures as I can find, just to make sure I don't get beaten to the punch.

"Wow, that's animals n stuff"

now that 6 second jingle is gonna be in my head all day, along with the lasor thing.

Also evidenced by the un-pronged horns.

ha caught that too!

yeah looked like a khudu

at time 12;40. Not a pronghorn. kind of shadows the credibility of the whole video

thanks! Yes Andrew Parker's work needs to be known - it's all based on quantum diffraction gradients to evolve eyes.

why aren't you 2xing it?

I 2x these vids - so it was only 3.5 minutes in for me. thks

Hopefully it'll be about the Ordovician Radiation.

​@@wolfpackastrobiology3690yeah, me too. I love the Ordovician period because my son found an Ordovician fossil bed near our house and I always want to learn more about the ecosystem from back then. And see them colorfully swimming and wiggling around, rendered in CGI.

​@@jamesmills2087 I said paleontology

of course, "it's the cambrian explosion." Bill Wurtz

Im sure some of the more receptive people through history suspected something similar. Usually takes someone with a unique intellect to formalize these sorts of things.

I’m sure religion is to blame for this one

I don't think religion is entirely to blame. People selectively bred animals since much earlier so they knew exactly what was going on because they had their hands on every part of the process. The idea that it was how complex life started, or that the pigeons you meticulously breed for prettier feathered feet were once dinosaurs, is where the massive leap comes in.

​@@Yankees640live Religion is a derivative of narricissim.

​@@Yankees640live Religion is fiction.

it's not the territory, it's the map! The stock footage is not real.

That very well could be it.

You're on the right track, just not in the right direction.

yeah, narration is good but far too quiet up to the backing music which becomes a distraction as it's so loud at times.

You gotta 2x these vids and don't watch them - then just read and respond to comments. hahaha

More likely a urmommabeast

it's all about stock footage.

💯

The lead up and the linkage of AI was not as clear, but the intent was to show how small incremental changes (as in Darwinism) can lead to surprising emergent properties.

I don't think LLMs (large language models) are as big of a leap as they want to make you believe.

Right but we know this. The question is what triggered life to begin specializing so aggressively? And so suddenly. On an evolutionary and geologic time scale, literally a split second had passed. What was the impetus?

@BeckBeckGo oh, I see! Thanks for the clarification! That's a very tough one. We would have to understand why and how rna forms, why, and how single-celled organisms form super-organisms that can evolve into multi-cellular organisms before we could really begin to explain anything after. If we can't repeat this in a lab, we have to look at fossil evidence, which there's almost none of, with this Era. My speculation is that these superorgansims began doing a new thing, growing a shared nervous system between organisms within the super organism. This let them communicate with one another, and probably led to the development of the brain, and ultimately free will, but thats pure speculation, and doesn't explain much else.

They didn't have maps (didn't need them) and didn't try to control nature. So it was uncharted and wild.

the trick is to 2x the vid and don't watch it.

Sorry. but that's not how it works. Radiation does not drive evolution, natural selection does. Radiation causes more disorder, but evolution is about increasing order.

​@@whatabouttheearthwoe, radiation (supernova)most definitely has some part in speciation. Do you have some fossils from the Precambrian? Wouldn't mind seeing them. Or are you talking about the Ediacaren fossils a few million years before the Cambrian.

High energy particles literally shoot thru your DNA causing mutations. It's possible to pass these mutations on

@@whatabouttheearth the video we watched was about life that's multi cellular popping up abruptly.

@@whatabouttheearth Nobody believes that.
