Video Embedding

I just thought it would be really nice if Brilliant introduces the ability to embed videos from Youtube, or even better, let users upload videos (but I think embedding is better) to Brilliant.
This way, if anyone sees a brilliant video on a topic on YouTube (or any other similar website), they can notify the community right away.

Well, posting links is an option. But, I think its better to embed the videos, since it could allow the users to post comments on the video that will only be visible here. Also, I have seen that YouTube users do not frequently reply to comments on their videos (including me. Well, I dont get many :P)

"Pictures convey more than words", and Videos convey more than that.

Its just a suggestion. Tell me what you think, and thanks for taking the time to read this note.

Easy Math Editor

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

That's a really good idea @Anish Puthuraya ! I would certainly learn more from watching the videos of other great Brilliant users @Bob Krueger @Finn Hulse @Cody Johnson @Daniel Liu @Daniel Chiu

I'm thinking video solutions to problems. Great idea @Anish Puthuraya! :D

I would post videos for sure! But I wouldn't come on brilliant to post videos. Instead, someone should find a really good problem and request me to upload a video of the answer!

Show that all non-trivial zeros of the complex interpolation of a function, say $\zeta (s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac {1}{n^s}$ , occur where $\Re (s) = \frac {1}{2}$

Thanks in advance. I know you won't disappoint!

I totally support your suggestion!

Eddie The Head - 7 years, 1 month ago

yeah! that's a great idea!!

Krishna Ramesh - 7 years, 1 month ago

yep! I am in...One more thing-there should be some way via which we could post pictures in solutions...if there is any way to do that .please tell me...

Great idea! I agree with you!
