I was at first surprised by the.. well eccentric appearance of the presenter, but this is genuinely a good high level introduction about a topic that's been on my mind a few time but lacked the the real interest to pursue seriously. kudos

[punditgi]

Finally! The naked truth about control theory. At long last! 🎉😊

"Mom, I want to go to university lectures"
"Silly, we have Einstein's lectures on YouTube"
Einstein's lectures on YouTube:

[amazingvidguyz]

I dont have an interest in control systems per se, but im here for that wonderful moustache. It jumps around while you talk and i might learn something about control theory along the way.

[jjqformerlyjailbreak]

You mean this guy is who I’ve been listing too at work with headphones and he’s been naked the whole time?
Mind Blown.

“Edit”
I spelled listening wrong. 😬

[exnonred]

There's something magical about his voice and facial expressions.. Also, the overall vibe of the video.
I have no idea what control systems are

[stanislav]

Love Control Theory, such a beautiful area of math that can be applied to any physical process in the universe. Never thought that I'd be getting a lesson on it from a naked guy in shower.

[antoninguyen]

Just a gut feeling, I subscribed and liked after few seconds watching this video. Thanks!

[submarooo]

Wow! This was so well presented. Shows you that you don't need fancy editing to make something interesting!

[stevethach]

I used to be an aerospace engineer focusing on control systems of rockets

Very cool to see representation!

[QuarkStew]

Thank you. I was afraid the art of the absurd was dead and gone. Entertaining and educational.

[freedom_aint_free]

Amazing video! Please, we need some larping here: You need to get a Prussian army outfit !

[TravisHi_YT]

Are you writing these scripts or are you reading from books?

[baconinvader]

"non-linear": boring, uninspired
"transends proportionality": powerful, impactful

[kx]

I just hope he has pants controlling things down there.

[FasutonemuMyoji]

bef I clicked I was like "Wtf YT, y r u showing me weirdo naked guy explaining some MKULTRA mind control consp*racy BS", then I was like, "Oh, just good science toob", Thanks YouTube! *pats algorithm on head*

[Zmmb]

i dont like the style. Though the educational content seems to be fine

[sleyeborgrobot]

not wearing a shirt. the ultimate form of control.
