Five Bullet Wednesday - Water droplets, Jargon, Fish

Things I've been thinking about---
(I realize these are silly/unrealistic)
・Everyone talks about cow farts and the environment. What about human farts? Is there a diet that reduces human methane emissions?
・Should foodstuffs that are not totally absorbed be factored in when considering food waste? For example if you eat food X containing 50g of protein but only absorb 40 grams of that protein, and from food Y you absorb all 50g, have you just wasted 10g of protein by eating food X?
・What if there was a tax or ban on cremation? If everyone had to bury their loved ones, wouldn't we have healthier soil? (Re: Mufasa)
・Night Soil

TV I enjoyed recently---
I don't watch often watch Japanese TV, but while waiting for the shuttle bus to the airport at the lobby in a hotel in Sapporo with my friend, the program 「チコちゃんに叱れる」Be scolded by Chiko-chan, was playing. The program started by saying something like "Do you know why water droplets make the noise 'po-chan' when they hit the water?" Then, they went on to reference this paper The Sound Produced by a Dripping Tap is Driven by Resonant Oscillations of an Entrapped Air Bubble and even had the authors of the paper appear via Skype call on the program. This was the last thing I expected from a program where one of the hosts is a woman wearing an anime child with a gigantic head suit. (See attached picture)

Class I'm enjoying--- Masterclass - "Malcolm Gladwell Teaches Writing" In my last Five Bullet Wednesday, I said a quote I enjoyed was "The question is: what is interesting? That's the question that has to drive writing. " by Malcolm Gladwell. This course is basically just Malcolm Gladwell sitting in a chair and talking to you, but there's something about it that I think it would be interesting for people not even interested in learning how to write. He has a lot of great insights like:  ・Be careful with how you use Jargon and use it as a tool rather than an obstacle. In my videos I'm often thinking about how I can introduce jargon in the least boring way, so I typically try to address it in a very brief/simple way. Gladwell gave an example of how he was able to use Jargon to maintain suspense throughout an article he wrote. The article is in The New Yorker and it's called The Treatment. It starts: "In the world of cancer research, there is something called a Kaplan-Meier curve, which tracks the health of patients in the trial of an experimental drug."  He goes on to explain how this Kaplain-Meier curve essentially shows whether or not a drug is effective or not. In the Masterclass he explains that when researchers are doing a presentation on the results of a drug trial, they'll go through several slides explaining the science behind the drug, the design of the trial—whatever it might be, the audience will invariably be thinking "OK OK let's see the Kaplan-Meier. Get to the Kaplan-Meier." Another quote from his piece:  "The lead Genentech researcher took the audience through one slide after another—click, click, click—laying out the design and scope of the study, until he came to the crucial moment: the Kaplan-Meier. At that point, what he said became irrelevant. The members of the audience saw daylight between the two lines, for a patient population in which that almost never happened, and they leaped to their feet and gave him an ovation." So now that you understand this piece of Jargon- "Kaplan-Meier," Gladwell begins telling the story of a melanoma trial and gets you in the same position as the audience at a drug trial presentation, thinking: "OK OK let's see the Kaplan-Meier. Get to the Kaplan-Meier."
The class has plenty insightful gems like this.

Youtube channel I'm interested lately---
きまぐれクックKimagure Cook
Dude is basically just breaking down fish but it's really interesting. I eat a lot of fish so I think this would be a good skill to have myself.

Video idea I'm pondering---
"The Seafood Diet"
A lot of people talking about a carnivore diet lately, but what about a seafood only diet? Obviously very expensive and impractical depending on where you live. Basically I would eat only seafood for a month, monitor the effects and talk about the science of what's going on.

Looking forward to any comments. What was your favorite point?
