My mom passed away from ALS 6 months before I posted my first YouTube video. This will be a great event.

This is done. All the injection molded parts from any of the Build Boxes can now be 3D printed for free. You can find it on each individual box QR code landing page where the box's physics lesson is hosted. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hey @MarkRober - any chance you could share an STL for the axle pieces for the completion gear boards from @crunchlabs - a few of ours got lost/broken and I’d love to whip up some spares. #3dprinting #DemocratizeManufacturing #future

This book is for the exhausted majority in the US tired of extreme polarization on both sides. Tim makes a moving case for turning the temperature down and returning to the point of idea labs from echo chambers. It’s the kind of book that incubates great discussions with friends.

My book What's Our Problem? is now available. The book introduces a new framework for thinking about our chaotic political environment. With 303 drawings, it's a toolbox for understanding our societies, our group dynamics, and our own minds. Get it here: waitbutwhy.com/whatsourproblem

Whenever I get to know someone who seems perfect, I end up disappointed. Whenever I get to know someone who I think is the worst of the worst, I'm pleasantly surprised. Angels and demons aren't real.

My new video is a brilliant execution of a clever idea from some really clever engineers using their superpowers for good. I also got to visit Rwanda which is my new second favorite country.

I worked at for about a decade and I’ve been gone now for about a decade. It was so great to go back to say hi and see so many friends again. Also did a little talk at while I was in the neighborhood.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals. The FINAL GlitterBomb 5.0 has autonomous drones :) Took some chances and sort of swung for the fences here as a tribute to the whole series. Thanks for coming along for the 5 year ride. *full vid in comments*

This one truly was a group W. We said from the beginning #TeamTrees and #TeamSeas wasn't to solve all the problems. But there's a very non-zero number of people who care more about our planet than before all of our collective efforts.

I spent four minutes talking about how a math problem doesn't have an actual answer and instead it inspires useless fighting that nonetheless goes viral and all of the most recent comments are peopling arguing that, actually, their answer is right. youtube.com/watch?v=lBJVyC

One of the build boxes is a tripwire that shoots foam balls to terrorize your loved ones. It’s a prankster right of passage to experience the occasional self own :)
