It's probably fine if you're incapable of noticing the errors. Myself, I find it aneurism inducing.

I'd hardly consider him popsci, rather very talented at describing complicated shit to novices. With 7 million subscribers there's no way in hell even close to a majority of that audience even understands whats going on in his more in-depth videos, me included, but they are still fun to watch. Popsci is when they sell out for pointless gimmick videos like Vsauce and Nilered

If a ball is at reast on top of that cone at some point it'll randomly pick a direction and fall, even in a perfect environment with zero friction, no air etc.

You can roll up the ball up the hill and rest it on top of the cone showing that both equations correctly describe the position of the ball in time given the same exact circumstances and initial conditions. You have to rely on some nebulous concept of arbitrary time "at some point" to break away from the indeterminate form which is not part of the system in which you're describing the trajectory of the ball in.
This obviously doesn't break physics just shows that Newtonian mechanics have indeterminate solutions in some edge cases. There is no paradox, a toy model of the universe is unphysical in some circumstances.

Microplastics suck but they're a hundred times preferable to biological contamination and a million times preferable to your reservoir making bromate. The plastic they use doesn't release benzene like some old ones did, either.
You have somewhat similar situation with crops. The use of fungicides has some negative consequences but they're orders of magnitude less harmful than the aflatoxin produced by mold.

VSauce was extremely based. His videos explored novel ideas instead of generic science thing #72, were edited and presented well and fairly accurate. Veritasium just reads off a script talking about some generic science mcguffin and the videos often have errors. His video on Feynman path integral was really bad, explained nothing and the experiment that other guy did in the video was shamelessly phoned in at the last moment.

>Is pop-sci good for you?
No. It makes you FEEL like you're learning without actually teaching you anything. It sates your desire for knowledge by giving you shallow surface level content that you will struggle to recall let alone ever put to use. Watching popsci is like smoking weed to make yourself feel smart.

If you're not going to use it, then why are you pretending to learn it? Instead of sating your curiosity by pretending to learn something, you should find something you actually can use and learn that for real.
