AAAAAAAA! Vsauce is making me interested in math! NOOOOO What do I do lol
so if i study onlky 20% of most used words & grammar i can learn 80% of a language 🤑
This is like almost actual proof we are in a simulation
Since there are an infinite causes and effect pairs, I believe every arbitrary combination like 30/70 or 50/50 will also have infinite occurences (there may not be anything special about 20/80). If someone shows that the popularity or frequency of a particular combination, say 20/80, is more compared to the rest of the possibilities, then it would be something weird. Listing a 100 examples which follows 20/80 principle from an infinite more total examples does not lead me to believe that this combination is special. Nice video though, as always 😉.
We broke the law!!! Only 9 percent of plastic is recycled 91 percent is in landfills or is litter.
80% of my life is boring but 20% is more boring.

How can you not translate the unknown language, all ya gotta do is figure out what's used the most then that must be the word "the" and so on.
All this tells me is that life is actually just a lot of annoying math problems I don't want to do
Why do I only watch vsauce at 5 in the morning
Zipfs law seems like an Easter egg the creators of the world put in when they were designing us, in the simulation, we're just part of a simulation created by other beings and they made things like zipfs law intentionally for us to eventually find. Imagine the things we don't yet know, or even better imagine the things we think we know but are just based off of speculation
Speculation? Oh, you mean like speculation as in there must be a creator
He is so quizacious

This just proves whoever is running the simulation got lazy on some details lol
I almost clicked on another video when he did the fake ending.
I'm curious what effect the application of anti-trust laws has on these distributions. We know that when we apply these laws it tends to improve the economy and the quality of life for the customers of these companies. But if businesses tend toward this equilibrium of unfairness then a more heavy handed a approach might be warranted.
"Even so, they have made me" I love this sentence. I lost my grandfather almost a month ago and he was the one who was truly passionate about studying. He had inspired me to continue my studies after high school and I am still passionate about studying. I've been thinking a lot of him during this month, but I realized I was and am not able to remember much things about him as I would like to. Probably this link doesn't make sense, but that sentence Michael said here makes me feel better about it. Thank you.
The decisive development comparably tease because pail similarly return round a lewd bead. scandalous, deadpan hardboard
What if the zipfs law thing isn’t a flaw in the world but a flaw in how we record and measure the world

Mandarin has no translation for "the" Mikey! They also use use less polite words in common language. Like, you wouldn't ask a waitress, "Could I have the check please?" you would say, "Bring check now!" as far as a literal translation goes. It's not considered rude, that's just how that culture speaks. People learning Mandarin might use formal words like please and it will usually make a native Mandarin speaker laugh or at least smile because it seems odd to them.
Can't I ruin this whole thing by going to Wikipedia and typing sauce 100000 times and publish it? If you say that wouldn't be counted what if I just say it in real life 100000 times, then it has appeared so you have to count it... Can this just be completely thrown off?
As a nurse I wonder what the most common words I use in the hospital are? Maybe they are still the usual suspects
I don't really have an opinion on whether or not we live in a simulation, but I would accept that Zipf's Law is the result of a low-level algorithm trying to simulate randomness.
the word frequency and rank thing is weird to me cause it seems like that's not even really true?? I've only seen about the first minute of the video but when he shows the Shakespeare graphic at 1:17, the 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 thing doesn't happen at all, it goes 1st "and" (~650), 2nd "the" (~650), 3rd "I" (~575) and trends downward for the rest of it. I agree the graph looks like a 1/x graph, but it's not like as the word rank goes from 1 to 2 it halves. The rest of the graph follows the trend, but the beginning of it (the most interesting part of it) doesn't even really do it
As I'm watching the rest of the video, the other examples still hold up, it's just weird that the first example they chose to show didn't actually show it
Who else remembers their locker number? Mines 16,18,37
Huh, I can't believe it's been 5 years since this came out. I distinctly remember this video, alongside the "Banach Tarski Paradox" video.

Can some count the number of "the" in the video
Combine this with the Brachistochrone video and one might assume that 80% of the acceleration is done over the first 20% of the distance.
how does this relate to bendford's law?
0:03-0:13 haha I'm german
Ever heard of benforrd's law ? Its the same thing
QUIZZACIOUSLY!
Omg wow
I'd personally say this is one of the most significant videos on the Internet. I spent a couple of months once just looking into this phenomenon and it is very interesting.
The simulation in which we run has some laws in its code like zipfs, some series like fibonacci and then the neural network trained to almost 99.99% put that into everything - it proves we're in a simulation
Between infinite periodicals like pi and eulers number, and zipfs law... not too far off thinking someone is simulating reality for the fuck of it

We really are in the matrix.
Dear friends, please watch this video and just think about what has been said. This man speaks the truth rsloft.info/loft/video/Z5eayqDR0X-sfmk
*When fact checking Zipf's law was really true, I found that 80% of the time, it wasn't true, 20% it was true.* Check it yourself. *When fact checking Zipf's law was really true, I found that 80% of the time, it wasn't true, 20% it was true.*

@4:30 I realized The "Pareto principle" looks identical to the "Brachistocrone curve" 🤔🤷♂️🤯
@Mumbo Jumbo your unease may simply be a result of the incredibly annoying nature of the speaker. OR, your unease is the result of discovering we are living in a simulation
I thought it’d be like tbh
Is this proof we are living in The Matrix?
Just realized that answer is right before questions in the word frequency counter
I’be learned more from watching this channel than 3 years of middle school
Bro ikr same
That's so easy to explain! That's because of the
our whole life can be predicted, and we are just a part of this system that creates random personalities combined with random physical appearances, which are put in random situations, over and over again, so in theory, There is a big possibility that there someone that has very much similar features, in all aspectives, but that is not possible to happen if it was not on the same time period or "culture/society and enviromental affects" , being that because the experiences with society in which form personality will be different... so is "god" just creating different human beings and putting them in different situations for entertainment, are we living in order to test every possible possibility until we get somewhere?
oh my god, I was thinking about what I said, and well we have already proof of it, like why do asian people have different features and mostly different "life experinces" then african american for example, why is it not just mixed everywhere? why do we HUMANS, like to segregate alike things? humans have to learn that we are EMPTY OF INHERENT VALUE, and we should not feel like we HAVE to represent something/where/who because of what society expects or because you think you will not be "you" without that, because there is no real you, we will always adapt and change.
So basically EVERYTHING is partially predictable!!!!
much love
These videos help me sleep because knowing more facts help me be comforted.
I don't remember anything
i watch 80% of vsauce videos and understand 20%
I had my lawyer and hers argue over the word "the" used in a sentence in our custody battle for at least an hour,, at 200 bucks an hour a piece,, we both decided to agree... I think it was there plan but they just stretched out the act.
saice is the 5555th most common word nioce 😏
