How much does a cat's tail affect its ability to land on its feet? Do cats without tails tend to fall over frequently?
Could a planet have "internal" rotation of its molten core while having a stagnant outer surface, or perhaps a slowly rotating surface?
What's the deal with the Dzhanibekov effect (the observation a cosmonaut had when a spinning bolt flipped in space)?
The head and the shaft are rotating in unison. The head has more inertia around the axis. Don't forget the bolt is in a standing pressurized chamber of air.
Will the Earth eventually cool down enough to stop producing a geomagnetic field?
Tails seem to be vestigial for many organisms.

Are periodic boom and bust cycles of the economy inevitable, or should we by now be capable of managing national economies better, simultaneously avoiding both recessions and excessive inflation?
What modes does Stephen Wolfram have?
What are the personality traits of Stephen Wolfram that have made him become an entrepreneur?
Have you ever questioned your competence? If you did, what did you do in that situation?
What methodology do you use when you have to solve a problem you don't know how to solve but that has to be solved fast?
How does Stephen stay organized, in general? And specifically, how does he organize and write his papers and books?
Are there specific questions/audits that you routinely run on your business, life or thought process to facilitate innovation?
Problem solving with other people requires understanding other people's psychology. How do you go about understanding how to influence others to be efficient at solving problems?
Good banter can enhance the conversation.
How do you deal with multiple smart people on your teams disagreeing with each other, e.g. team member A proposes doing f() while team member B proposes g()?
Did you know Paul Graham between 2002 (NKS) and 2005 (Y Combinator founded)? Was NKS implicitly/explicitly why he ran many different "programs" (startups) to see what happened empirically?
It's mind blowing how many of the important points in time of modern innovation Wolfram was in the room for.

As the Wolfram Language grows, will the number of lines of code ever shrink? What could cause such a trend?
Scientists are trying to elucidate the origins of life on Earth. The current focus is exploring the "RNA world." This occurred 4.5 billion years ago. Could there have been dimensional fluctuations back then?
Why are small children able to spin around so quickly without getting dizzy, while adults become nauseous?
Do we still need the appendix? Are there any parts in our body that we "evolved away"?
Is science getting harder? Are ideas getting harder to find?
Yes, the more we've learned, the more we've learned that there's a lot more to learn!
How ironic then, that Albert Einstein started his revolution in physics while working in a patent office!
One thing that interests me is predicting what the future will look like (Alan Turing predicted computers would be capable of playing chess 50 years from when he said that, and sure enough, by 1997 they were able to do so).

What is the value system you follow based on? Have you designed your own value and motivational structure?
Do you find exercising your personal thoughts on these livestreams can be a therapeutic experience?
Have you ever thought about the role of physical exercise or sports as a companion activity to intellectual pursuits? Exercise has been shown to be the only big booster of neuroplasticity besides being of a developmental age. Curious that campuses have so much of it.
Strange that as a university professor, you were not that interested in education—your enthusiasm for these livestreams says otherwise... and unflattering things on formal university education!
My capacity to brainstorm and associate ideas while walking is much greater. I highly recommend to approach walking like that.
Do you enjoy music? Who is your favorite composer/band?
Do you listen to music generated by AI?
Oh my gosh, I'm loving the image of Stephen at a Taylor Swift concert.
Thoughts on your involvement with the movie Arrival?
Do you have any advice (time management, prioritizing) for a first-time parent trying to juggle being present in a kid's life, but also having recently started a business?
How did you know you wanted to have children? And did they contribute in any way toward your learning in your field/general lifelong learning?
How did you manage at-home office hours? Lock the door and set expectations?
On the topic of kids, I'm currently eating a box of Cheerios with my two kiddos while watching this.
What do you think about the recent remote-work criticism by Elon Musk regarding innovation not working as well in a distributed/remote manner?
