  • I haven't been posting much recently, so I thought of recording a small update. I'm talking about what you can expect (or not expect) from the channel in the near future, as well as what I've been working on in my spare time recently (I think it's a fairly interesting project 😉 more in the video!).

    Very cool. What I'd like to know is how many times can you fly through the centre of the galaxy before you collide with a star 🤔. Agree with you about FE. Good luck with this. Yep, see you around! 👍👍👍

      I don't intend to delete anything. It's not like I hate what I did and want to distance myself from it - more like, I want to spend my time more productively in the future. Although, it's possible that at some point if I do publish something, it might be on a different platform, if CZcams progresses too much in its enshittification (which is in quite an advanced stage already).

    I know what you mean about the debunking thing. Getting deja vu about looking up my own video in which "I already answered that" because I've looked it up so many times is a bit silly. I have the same feeling about the climate change questions on Quora. "Here are links to my most recent five answers on this subject, one of which contains links to a dozen of my earlier answers on this subject, one of which contains links to several of my earlier answers on this subject, one of which contains links to *WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE?!?"*

    Are you using an existing game engine as your base to build upon or are you building it from scratch and incorporating libraries where necessary?

    • @scienceitout
      @scienceitout  Před 26 dny +2

      I'm not using an engine yet. I may try to use one if/when I decide that not using one is too much effort 😅 But generally, as I understand it, engines come with their own limitations and they could make it harder to implement some features I'll need, so I'll try to get as far as I can on my own, first (although that may depend on the engine). Not to mention that learning to properly use one is an undertaking in its own right 😅

    Wouldn't going at speeds near the speed of light cause relativistic aberration?

    • @TruthNerds
      @TruthNerds Před 21 dnem +1

      I should clarify, even if we assume Newton's model with light "corpuscules" (photons) traveling, err, in a manner consistent with Newtonian mechanics, there should be considerable aberration at speeds comparable to the speed of light. (We can measure aberration at orbital speeds, anyway.)
      Special Relativity would just make it more pronounced when coming very close to the speed of light.

    • @scienceitout
      @scienceitout  Před 21 dnem +1

      @@TruthNerds Well, yes. You could say that for now I'm assuming the speed of light to be infinite. Implementing aberration wouldn't be too hard, but I'm not sure that's a good idea (I definitely won't be going for 100% realism anyway, proper relativistic treatment would be too much of a hassle). It's something to be considered later, I guess.

      No, I really, really don't. It has been a source of some fun for a while, but became a bit too repetitive for me.

      It really isn't. And if you look around my channel, I've shown quite a lot of evidence that it isn't.
