I thought today we might do another post with the YouTube videos I've watched this week. I don't really allow a lot of time for wasting on YouTube, but I do visit once or twice a week, look at what the algorithm throws at me, add any that look good to my Watch Later list, and then return at night to watch one or two of them.
Here are a few videos I enjoyed this week.

Richard Feynman always puts things in such an interesting and easy-to-understand way. Here he is explaining the science behind time perception. I love videos like this!

Here is Tim Curry breaking down some of his most iconic roles. What an amazing actor. It's great hearing his take on these roles. To me, it's Rocky Horror and It. But he was great in everything he did.

Batman and Superman's take on if we should accept an AI-Governed life.

Well anyway, that's it. Any stand out to you?
