Heard Jamie and Adam didn't get along well, but put their differences aside for the benefit of science. We need more people like them.

He said in an interview, that the Finnish mindset is to keep your head sown, do your thing and drink coffee. He gets us! ?❤

I spent ~10 years at the Helsinki University of Technology, and boy do students get talkative with enough lubrication of the alcoholic kind.

He's going to do most of the teaching remotely from California using a moving, interacting robot in Finland. Way to cut down air travel

But that just seems stupid to me. If I landed a teaching gig in Finland you couldn't keep me away. Skiing, Northern lights, Essi Unkuri...

I recently watched a video on Adams YouTube where they toured his work shop he had spent so much time perfecting. Hasn't been touched since.

Listening to Adam talk about it after the fact is amazing. He makes it clear that he and Jamie weren't/aren't friends but have a huge >>

>> thought of separately. I love that it shows that two people don't have to be best friends to make a great partnership.

I went back and watched a bunch recently and most of it holds up. Bummer that no one's been able to capture that lightning again.

Talkative fins? That's a joke right?

Yes, people outside Finland have a thing called 'humor', where we say absurd things, in order to experience an emotion we call 'enjoyment'

We don't do small talk. We don't know how and it just seems awkward. But when there's something to talk about finns really are talkative

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0
