In a new video currently circulating online , an 18-year-old named Jojo is recorded by his dad as he opened his first paycheck and saw how much money was taken out for taxes .
“ Jojo , how ’ s it feel openin ’ up this first check , man ?

Jojo seemed to be shy about his father recording , as most 18-year-olds would .
“ Oh , c ’ mon , Papa , let me just open it up , ” he replied .
There is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ paycheck and shows the camera , but as soon as he starts to read how much he actually got paid after taxes , his expression began to change .
When he began to look distraught , his father asked , “ Why your face like that , Jojo ?

Contrary to most scientists , Tyson is not shy of frequenting podcasts or talk shows , where he captivates his audience with his knowledge of the Universe .
In one such interview with Joe Rogan , Tyson decided to smoke pot and then give his two cents on what gravity really is .

Truth Theory recently asked our readers on Facebook to share with us the most valuable life lessons they have learned from their fathers, and there were some fascinating responses.
The majority of comments were positive, with some people sending in some lovely touching posts about the life lessons they had been taught.
Unfortunately, though there is no point in sugar-coating the fact that for a fair number of people, their father was absent or even abusive.
Others clearly inherited a great sense of humor from their dads.
In keeping some balance with the real world, we’ve included a variety of different responses within our top 30 list (in no particular order).
The heartfelt – some genuine pearls of wisdom

truththeory--2020-08-05--Scientist Stunned After Accidentally Breeding The Fish Version Of A Liger

An unexpected fertilization has occurred in a fish nursery , resulting in a hybrid fish breed comprising two species which are further apart on the evolutionary tree than humans and mice .
An American paddlefish was able to fertilize eggs from a Russian sturgeon and the fascinating results were posted in the Genes journal .
Russian sturgeons are famous for their eggs or caviar , a delicacy found in expensive restaurants around the world .
They can get up two meters long and 100kg in weight and are bottom dwellers which prey on crustaceans and smaller fish .
Their snouts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other variations of sturgeon .
Their backs are covered with an array of scutes – scale-like protrusions .
American paddlefish are filter feeders – they sustain themselves by sucking up zooplankton .
Shark-like in its body appearance , the paddlefish has a strange and overly big snout which makes up a third of its total length .
In summary , both fish are pretty strange looking species .
And so it ’ s not surprising that their offspring , the sturddlefish , are also rather prehistoric looking .
Comprising of the gametes ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only one set of dissimilar chromosomes , or half the genetic material needed to make up a complete organism ) from seven individual fish , the offspring exhibited survival rates of 62 % to 74 % beyond the initial 30-day period .

Russian sturgeons are famous for their eggs or caviar, a delicacy found in expensive restaurants around the world.

truththeory--2020-08-04--This Guy Can Fit A Round Peg Through A Square Hole

We have always thought about this problem- can anyone push a round peg through a square hole ?
Well , Tadashi Tokeida can , actually .
In this video , he talks about how he did it- bringing forth various notions about dimensions , Pythagoras ’ Theorem , and other mathematical principles that you need to brush up again .
And no , it isn ’ t easy , or something that would make you go ‘ Oh how did I not think about this !
’ The entire scenario will prove a testament to what mathematics can actually prove- @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his quirky graphics and friendly voice , Tokeida will take you through the entire process- providing interesting snippets at every turn .
Read : SCIENTISTS HAVE SUCCESSFULLY USED QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT TO TELEPORT INFORMATION BETWEEN TWO MICROCHIPS How Does Tadashi Tokeida Solve It ?
First , he takes a piece of paper with a diamond-shaped hole in the middle- the diagonals of which measure less than the diameter of a coaster in his hand .
It is evident that the round peg or coaster in this situation wouldn ’ t pass through in any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a doozy- he takes the paper and folds it into a ‘ mysterious way ’ which helps the coaster slide through easily .
Mind you , he doesn ’ t rip or tear the paper in any way .
He mentions how the entire trick can be pulled off by interplaying the connection between the apparent two-dimensional nature of the paper ( and the square-shaped hole inside ) with the three-dimensional ambience the sheet exists in .
Interesting , isn ’ t it ?
What is The Maths Behind It ?
When he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do , he shows us how the diagonals of the square are much smaller than the coaster- hence it is nigh on impossible for the coaster to pass through .
Next , he takes the same sheet and begins twisting it from the sides- carefully enough to shred it or rip it .
As he twists it , the height of the sheet starts increasing as it uses ambient three-dimensional elbow room .
He twists until the two sides of the figure get aligned in a straight line .
After the two sides @ @ @ @ @ @ @ line , he squashes the part of the paper that had risen up , and creases it with the rest .
In order for the experiment to function completely , he also shifts the sides , so that the gap thus created becomes bigger- enough for the coaster to slide through .
Hey , are you on Instagram ?
Check out the official Truth Theory Instagram page HERE , we upload new content every day .
And now we come to the geometric part of the problem .
The hole the coaster slides @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rather the sum of the two sides that got aligned .
Now , imagine the diagonal creating two right-angled triangles .
We know that in this case , the Hypotenuse would be the square root of the squares of the two equidistant sides .
But the sum of the two sides would be approximately 40 % more .
And that 40 % gives us the length we need for the coaster to pass through .
Read : SIR ISAAC NEWTON ENDED UP DISCOVERING GRAVITY WHILE “ SOCIAL DISTANCING ” AND WORKING FROM HOME @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anyone would be able to fit a round peg in through a square hole smaller than it would be if they decided to use 3D .
Once the ambient three-dimensional space is used , the sum of the two sides gets bigger than the diameter- enough for the round peg to fit through .

And then he pulls off a doozy- he takes the paper and folds it into a ‘mysterious way’ which helps the coaster slide through easily. Mind you, he doesn’t rip or tear the paper in any way. He mentions how the entire trick can be pulled off by interplaying the connection between the apparent two-dimensional nature of the paper (and the square-shaped hole inside) with the three-dimensional ambience the sheet exists in. Interesting, isn’t it?
What is The Maths Behind It?
When he folds the paper like most of us do, he shows us how the diagonals of the square are much smaller than the coaster- hence it is nigh on impossible for the coaster to pass through. Next, he takes the same sheet and begins twisting it from the sides- carefully enough to shred it or rip it. As he twists it, the height of the sheet starts increasing as it uses ambient three-dimensional elbow room. He twists until the two sides of the figure get aligned in a straight line. After the two sides have completely aligned themselves into a straight line, he squashes the part of the paper that had risen up, and creases it with the rest. In order for the experiment to function completely, he also shifts the sides, so that the gap thus created becomes bigger- enough for the coaster to slide through.

And now we come to the geometric part of the problem. The hole the coaster slides through is not the diagonal, but rather the sum of the two sides that got aligned. Now, imagine the diagonal creating two right-angled triangles. We know that in this case, the Hypotenuse would be the square root of the squares of the two equidistant sides. But the sum of the two sides would be approximately 40% more. And that 40% gives us the length we need for the coaster to pass through.

The only way anyone would be able to fit a round peg in through a square hole smaller than it would be if they decided to use 3D. Once the ambient three-dimensional space is used, the sum of the two sides gets bigger than the diameter- enough for the round peg to fit through.
