Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@revendblackfyre says : Rule no 1 of evolution , its always about food>> <<@HockeyPuckLeafRat says : "it's like each spider is a work of art." Works of art require an artist. "Some jumping spiders have evolved to be really fine-tuned to a particular situation." If something's fine tuned it needs a fine tuner. These people are going far out of their way to rely on a theory of evolution instead of just admitting that there is a Creator.>> <<@ClippyIt says : They way you see them move the detailed eyes independently, i wonder if they are not panting a bigger color image more like scan lines / refresh in a tv or mpeg compression. Meaning, i would argue they probably paint more detail areas and "refresh" the area when desired or necessary.>> <<@PatrickWaugh-kk3ze says : Indeed we are seeing yellow, just not with a single dedicated sensor. In fact, color is just interpretation of frequencies. The entire system is seeing, not the eyes alone.>> <<@JosephParis-x4z says : If this is true, that would mean that yellow is not a primary color.>> <<@Beelover-z4d says : 4:17 i think spiders are cute>> <<@davidcopola3783 says : It is fairly obvious the reason for the jumping spider to evolve a superior visual acuity. Jumping ability to charge on prey by ambushing needs it. Being a small risk taker also requires better vision to avoid predation. It is the most amazing spider without a doubt. They are felines of the spider world.>> <<@prodima3 says : Stop the betterhelp sponsorship>> <<@sammcrae8892 says : When you see a color, regardless of what you perceive that color to be, it is not because the object you are looking at IS that color. What you are seeing as a particular color, (assuming it is seen in normal sunlight, or something similar) is the light waves, and the color that the object REFLECTS. For example, when you see a green leaf on a tree, it looks green to you, not because the leaf is actually green in, and of itself, but rather, because it reflects (mostly) what your eyes see as green light. In other words, when the full spectrum of sunlight (for example) falls on the leaf, the leaf absorbs most, or at least more, of the non green spectra, but reflects (mostly) the green light, and thus you see the leaf as green. (Or, whatever color you are seeing, is because the object is reflecting that particular color.) The thing is, that we don't actually know what color anything is in itself, but only what we perceive it to be according to the light it reflects. Plants for instance do better under full spectrum (sun-like) light, but mostly use, under most conditions, blue and red spectra; Which they absorb quite well, but most of the green wavelengths bounce off, so we can see the pretty green leaves.>> <<@KaizenOramara says : 15:12 the little front leg wave that spider did was adorable>> <<@megangamble8859 says : Not me getting teary eyed over that summary😢❤>> <<@Kaledarkwind6151 says : This was so awesome, i actually found this channel by looking up information about spiders so i could better understand them and my Irrational fear of them and i got pointed here. Glad i did. I love this stuff! Maybe one day ill be able to handle them and put that irrational fear to rest.>> <<@NowImAWizard says : Cute spiders were harmed in the making of this video... 11:50 👀>> <<@cemeterymagg0t says : 22:43 México is not on Central America. Maybe check your facts before making a statement.>> <<@jonaswut says : Camera manufacturers, especially for mobile phones, should be studying jumping spider vision HARD if they haven't been already. They need to be standing behind the scientists, taking notes. Talk about innovative design>> <<@raceboy1971 says : Imagine being mad at a Veritasium sponsor and not at the fact Veritasium sold out to private equity! LMAO Nothing is real. It's all just propaganda.>> <<@puru108g says : I am really interested to know who sponsors these projects, who funds these professors, who is interested in the end results etc>> <<@LeadFaery says : Spider video! Spiders are cool, I once bombed a test because I was too focused on the spider crawling around on my desk! I’m not neurodivergent, what are you talking about? Spider vertasium is 🫛k!>> <<@elson_correia says : Yeah. Stop that>> <<@louweintraub908 says : Why 37>> <<@louweintraub908 says : I saw a jumping spider before>> <<@itsrexxyyy says : bro betterhelp is a fkng scam just lost so much respect for u>> <<@Nk83-q4r says : This is what happens when pedants have too much time on their hands.>> <<@1089LeonhardEuler says : Me: Oh look, a yellow ball! Derek: You are not looking at a yellow ball. Me: Then what are you looking at while you're holding it? Derek: Look closer. Me: *smushes face to the screen to look*>> <<@greengreen9564 says : I think all of us would be interested in seeing a follow up to this video where you explore how much color perception different lizard species have.>> <<@joyaljames7692 says : 9.56 today I knew insects were also racist 😂>> <<@MSSSpecimensScience says : if spiders are sensitive to electromagnetic fields, wouldn’t gluing a magnet to their head slightly alter the experiment itself?>> <<@RedFlame64 says : 0:32 Vsauce lore 🗣️🗣️>> <<@Krypto_Knight_33 says : The female might be red so she doesn’t get eaten and can still procreate>> <<@debdouglass says : From what gathered from watching this video, many, many jumping spiders were sacrificed for this research>> <<@lacethefirebender2099 says : 0:31 what is this vsauce?>> <<@johnlannon87 says : "I AM looking at the yellow ball... Or am I?" *Queue VSauce mystery noises*>> <<@Tigerplay-q2h9u says : With all due respect and no threat associated to this at all what would you do if somebody beat you with a lead pipe strap you down to a table and cut your retinas out.... Glued you into a cylinder where your head was only sticking out.... Just for science... I'm not saying that we shouldn't explore the world around us... I'm saying we should do it in a humane way. People get all freaked out about alien abductions and stuff... Oh they did this and that... But they have no right.. if I did what you did in this video to a human being I'd be in prison for the rest of my life. Everybody wants to complain about abortion and this and that... But somehow we can cut the retinas off spiders... Abduct them from their home... And simply be okay with it because they are a "lesser life form". I'm not saying don't do it for the sake of science I'm saying we really need to think about what we're doing and stop being hypocrites>> <<@PsiLvl20 says : 14:12 "This Number is Everywhere" video reference?>> <<@aoyuki1409 says : 3:17 "some are sorta furry, some are sorta shiny, striped, spotted, red, green, blue, pretty much anything you can imagine" wait, you weren't talking about jumping spiders?>> <<@BlueArrowTSB says : 10:50 jumping spider is getting hawk tuah>> <<@rishikmahith2885 says : im just unsubscribing veritasium he also became too money minded doing bad sponserships>> <<@Tripskull says : You shouldn't be calling you black and white vision because you see white you have to see red blue and green. It'd be more accurate to call it shades of grey>> <<@netkrawlr says : I want spider vision.>> <<@alexandertzvetanov7512 says : No one can convince me this is not cute. :D>> <<@sirtunacan says : Were not seeing white either for that matter. Just a combination of red green and blue.>> <<@dr.dankoproject says : I’d like to see a video about the first person to glue a magnet on a spiders head>> <<@alexthurman6808 says : 7:59 Humans don't share a common ancestor with apes and monkeys.>> <<@alexthurman6808 says : Yes it is yellow.>> <<@KayGreylai says : Im scared of spiders but i find this stuff really cool!>> <<@AadPratim says : 0:33 Vsauce>> <<@alien0178 says : 1:34 so yellow is the Friends we made along the way?>> <<@LahavArealShots says : I'm watching this with my jumper lol>> <<@philiphardcastle7184 says : Seen the betterhelp comment at top, leaving now, would probably have been a good video>> <<@Svennhill says : 8:24 Wayne looks like Derek's dad.>>
