In his acclaimed latest book, The Primacy of Doubt: From Quantum Physics to Climate Change, How the Science of Uncertainty Can Help Us Understand Our Chaotic World, Professor Timothy Palmer argues that embracing the mathematics of uncertainty is vital to understanding ourselves and the universe around us. Whether we want to predict climate change or market crashes, understand how the brain is able to outpace supercomputers or find a theory that links quantum and cosmological physics, Palmer shows how his vision of mathematical uncertainty provides new insights into some of the deepest problems in science. The result is a revolution—one that shows that power begins by embracing what we don’t know.

Timothy Palmer is the Royal Society Research Professor in Climate Physics, and a Senior Fellow at the Oxford Martin Institute at the University of Oxford. He is a mathematical physicist who has spent most of his career working on the dynamics and predictability of weather and climate. He pioneered the development of probabilistic ensemble forecasting techniques for weather and climate prediction, techniques that are now standard in weather and climate forecasting around the world. In 2021 Professor Palmer was awarded an honorary fellowship of the Institute of Physics.
Professor Palmer was involved in the first five IPCC assessment reports, and was co-chair of the international scientific steering group of the World Climate Research Programme project (CLIVAR) on climate variability and predictability.

It was an all-star (get it??) party featuring observations of Hubble's 'greatest hits', courtesy of Wyoming Stargazing Association! Plus we debated the greatest mysteries in the Universe including:
What is the nature of Dark Matter?
✦ How did the Universe begin?
✦ How will it end?
✦ Is there life beyond earth?
✦ What is the nature of Dark Matter and Dark Energy?
✦ What is causing the Hubble Tension and how will it be resolved?

This interview was supposed to be about Galileo's Dialogue and its impact on the world. We did discuss Galileo, but then it turned into something much deeper... I found Brendan to be very vulnerable, especially his candor about his struggles with drug addiction and recovery. The saving, redemptive power of love made this irresistible for me to release on Valentines Day. Don't miss our discussion about Free will, Sam Harris, and advice for parents like me.
00:00 Introduction
01:00 How Bad is Brendan's day going?
05:00 Deconstructing the Dialogue: Galileo’s: On Two Chief World Systems discuss why this book is so important to me, why it serves as an excellent exploration of the scientific method and its faults, and how it tells the human story of science.
10:00 my experience working on BICEP and BICEP-2 and the writing of Losing the Nobel Prize.
15:00 Confirmation Bias: The biggest threat to scientific progress excluding money! What does Galileo teach us about confirmation bias? Confirmation bias has plagued scientific progress for centuries - do you feel that the way we train students makes them too susceptible to confirmation bias?
20:00 Should we be working to fund more exotic ideas? Should we get back to funding science that isn’t necessarily “safe”? It’s as if the funding mechanisms force us to be biased towards the Universe behaving a certain way… For example, how many WIMP detectors are we going to build before we begin throwing money at other experiments and/or theories of dark matter?
30:00 COVID-19 has really made me think about this - do we not communicate complexity enough? I'd argue we don't and our failure to do so leads to such sayings as "Party of Science", "trust the science", or "science-denier." Many people I encounter might have these terms weaponized against them but they are generally just noticing a complexity that wasn't communicated to them and trying to understand it. Do you think humans are biased to believe the Universe is simpler than it is and if so, how does this manifest as confirmation bias in our field?

DASHEN MEMORIAL LECTURE - BARRY BARISH -- 2017 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS
The discovery of gravitational waves, predicted by Einstein in 1916, is now enabling important tests of the theory of general relativity, as well as beginning multi-messenger astronomy: the combined observations of astrophysical phenomena using electromagnetic radiation, gravitational waves and neutrinos. Plans and prospects for gravitational wave science will be explored.
-------------------------------------
Barry Clark Barish (born January 27, 1936) is an American experimental physicist and Nobel Laureate. He is a Linde Professor of Physics, emeritus at California Institute of Technology. He is a leading expert on gravitational waves. In 2017, Barish was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics along with Rainer Weiss and Kip Thorne "for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves". In 2018, he joined the faculty at University of California, Riverside, becoming the university's second Nobel Prize winner on the faculty.
-------------------------------------
Roger Frederick Dashen (May 5, 1938 in Grand Junction, Colorado – May 25, 1995 in La Jolla) was an American theoretical physicist who studied particle physics and quantum field theory.
Dashen studied physics at the Harvard University (where he also played in the football team), where he graduated "summa cum laude" in 1960. Then he went to Caltech, where he earned his PhD in 1964. After that, he was a professor at Caltech in 1967 and the Institute for Advanced Study in 1969. In 1986, he became a professor at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) in 1988 was Head of Faculty. He played a leading role in the establishment of a supercomputer center at UCSD and in the establishment of the Institute for Theoretical Physics of the National Science Foundation at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
In the 1960s he worked partly in collaboration with Murray Gell-Mann with current algebras of particle physics and models with chiral symmetry. In 1964, he worked on S-matrix methods to calculate electromagnetic corrections to strong interactions, including the mass difference between protons and neutrons with Steven Frautschi. In the 1970s, he studied with Brosl Hasslacher and André Neveu quantum field theoretical model theories (such as the Sine-Gordon model and the Gross-Neveu model) for extended particles and semiclassical approximations ([WKB approximation]) for their analysis.They developed the Dashen-Hasslacher-Neveu method (DHN) for quantization of solitons using path integrals. After the discovery of instantons in the quantum (QCD) by Polyakov, he examined it with David Gross and Curtis Callan. In the 1980s, he worked with lattic

#ChooseYourself #StandUpComedy #JamesAltucher Even though he ghosted me at his TED talk, James is still one of my favorite people -- he's humble, super-productive, successful, funny, and brilliant. Plus, he's got, shall we say, a full head of hair.
He writes something magical every day on his blog (https://jamesaltucher.com/) and has an insatiable appetite for learning. His books have changed my life and I'm so grateful to call on him for advice and phone (idea) sex. I hope you enjoy this interview and stick around for Part 2 where we discuss the physics of comedy and many other topics we somehow avoided in this first, nearly two-hour-long, episode!
