Our lizard good friend the Gila monster most likely has no thought {that a} chemical in its spit impressed one of the essential medical developments of the twenty first century. However this story is actually about one thing greater. One thing deeper, beneath the floor. About why we do science within the first place. And about what sort of questions are one of the best ones for scientists to ask.

One anecdote is a dude who played too much Assassin's Creed ended up guiding his class when they were lost in Rome. Serendipity (or usefulness) is not just a matter of situations arising from luck but also what you already have in disposal beforehand.
They say we won't use more than basic math outside of school. However, if we never see a number after graduation, the skills and ideas we learned form math are still useful and important.
great video, but i'd like to clarify smth: "It's important to note that if you start taking either of these drugs (Wegovy or Ozempic) for weight loss, your body may get used to it, establishing a new normal. This can cause your weight to plateau."
It's weird that people don't see a lack of knowledge and understanding as a hindrance to problem solving. Such people seem to prefer that we just stumble around in the dark until the problem magically fixes itself.

The more you know, the more you can know. All research is important.
Commenting for the algorithm
Can u do a video on how to end woke. Y it's so damaging to a society
The moment this video started I know it was going to throw a shade
Not surprised to see a republican finding a problem with having knowledge
Gila Monsters are super cool.
Really should be saying Type 2 after diabetes every time. It is really annoying to keep hearing "cure diabetes" when you cannot.
Or you could just stop overeating junk food.
What the hell is full, and WHY is it useless?
Thank you for your video ! Where did you find the figure of 25% of GDP related to quantum mechanics ? I can't find it.
Can you make video on adhd
There's no such thing as useless knowledge, there's only a lack of how to apply it.
and then there's concern that big pharma corpos will be pissed at the guy who makes natural lizard venom based insulin triggering meds once he gets heard and we never hear from this breakthrough again!
"Nobody really did anything with it for 10 years." That's 80% of papers, unfortunately.
Just want to say, that as a researcher of "useless knowledge", I really appreciate this video.
I've always told my kids to keep learning, no matter what it is. You never know how knowledge can transfer over and it's frequent that it does. I also train dogs and have to remind people that no "trick" is useless, anything new a dog learns can be incorporated into other things.
Boo, Rand Paul. Boooo.
bro ozimbic causes cqncer
It's amazing only because of people don't typically realize the connectedness of what we know and how knowing other things can have applications in other areas. What we see through science IS random experiments and trying things out. What succeeds is just that – success. Many avenues get worked out, many of which wouldn't be thought out of as able to work.
Remember… The iron was found by some crazy human wasting A bunch of precious firewood to burn A rock…
10:19 is this Loss?
Finally my extensive knowledge of Warhammer lore is justified.
"Like most stories, this isn't just about a fish and a lizard." Fair point.
Neumann 12:35 broo
Why is the cadence of his speech at 3/4 speed? This is weird. No-one naturally talks this slowly unless they are lecturing small children.
Pursuing knowledge is something i view as worthwhile. Capitalism doesnt pursue anything unless they end up profiting off it in some form or other.
The truth: researchers can pad their budgets, Big Pharma profits off public money and gets patents, and Edison used others' ideas and took credit.
Knowledge is useless until it's not. People have asked me why I know so many "silly little things", and it's because they come in use in ways that I couldn't have possibly imagined. You can't know what you don't know.
At the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research, there used to be an organization called the Center for Research on the Utilization of Scientific Knowledge, which wrestled with the issue of why it took so long for "pure" discoveries to beat fruit. Alas, it folded in 1985.
Or how about this: we do socialism or even communism, and allocate as much resources to pure research as we want to as a society, free from the profit motive that infects every government decision under capitalism?
Knowledge has this thing called serendipity, it becomes useful in unintented ways. Steve Job attended caligraphy classes and today we have myriad of fonts to choose from. No knowledge is wasted
