ah

2016-09-21 18:26:45 UTC

why don't you learn one topic really well and get into being an instructor for it professionally

2016-09-21 18:26:50 UTC

esp since you're a sub

2016-09-21 18:27:30 UTC

learn some newish tech like... Docker or saltstack or something

2016-09-21 18:27:47 UTC

and become an instructor, make slides, learn a speech and a bunch of commands

2016-09-21 18:28:14 UTC

that's a ton of $$$ since people who go to those are sponsored by their employers

2016-09-21 18:28:34 UTC

it's like $2-3k a pop per student for maybe 8 hours of instruction

2016-09-21 18:28:45 UTC

Can someone eli5 docker. I've been messing with it but don't really understand it

2016-09-21 18:28:52 UTC

the teaching degree can open doors

2016-09-21 18:28:57 UTC

And their explanation wasn't helping

2016-09-21 18:29:05 UTC

i feel like it's on purpose

2016-09-21 18:29:20 UTC

because the core tech isn't exactly mind-blowing, the abstraction is a way of hiding complexity

2016-09-21 18:30:09 UTC

not like what they're doing isn't complicated, but it doesn't really help the "plan" to tell people what happens when a container starts or how that's facilitated.

2016-09-21 18:31:50 UTC

so anyway, I'd love to be able to gift high school students or kids in general the amazing gift of knowledge and learning, but in my experience, there's a lack of maturity and the love of learning itself can't be taught, it has to be individually self-discovered

2016-09-21 18:32:41 UTC

chinks seem to be really good at substituting that with some sort of individual cultural mandate which is why they're so good at being awesome students but they're fuck-all useless at learning things on their own

2016-09-21 18:34:02 UTC

you're better off teaching adults

2016-09-21 18:34:14 UTC

cause they're baited by the carrot of employment

2016-09-21 18:34:29 UTC

and won't give you too much shit

2016-09-21 18:35:23 UTC

otoh there's something to the art of performing that's integral to classroom-style instruction too but that's probably preaching to the choir (you likely know more about that than I do)

2016-09-21 18:44:54 UTC

good job.

2016-09-21 18:46:47 UTC

rip pewdiepie

2016-09-21 18:46:54 UTC

youtube's lowering his salary

2016-09-21 18:47:02 UTC

cause he's going full nazi and trump

2016-09-21 18:47:47 UTC

does trump want to kill aliexpress ?!?!!!!?

2016-09-21 18:48:22 UTC

kek

2016-09-21 18:48:35 UTC

let the normies have youtube

2016-09-21 18:50:07 UTC

an alternative that doesn't care what the user puts up outside porn/snuff

2016-09-21 18:50:33 UTC

so you mean liveleak

2016-09-21 18:50:49 UTC

good thinking mydude

2016-09-21 18:51:07 UTC

but does liveleak partition their porn and gore?

2016-09-21 18:51:23 UTC

pretty sure you either do that or go full-on porns

2016-09-21 18:53:41 UTC

come to think of it, it's for the best that they keep the porn and the gore there

2016-09-21 18:54:07 UTC

you're not gonna get money for posting on pornhub rite

2016-09-21 18:54:13 UTC

i mean, probably not

2016-09-21 18:54:41 UTC

HOW TO SOLDER BGA COMPONENTS - Sponsored by BLACKED.COM

2016-09-21 18:54:48 UTC

the owners will be tempted to make the site PC like youtube

2016-09-21 18:54:51 UTC

kek

2016-09-21 18:55:10 UTC

i think google only uses youtube to gather info

2016-09-21 18:55:19 UTC

like it only makes money because they have a huge platform

2016-09-21 18:55:26 UTC

they lose money on youtube itself

2016-09-21 18:55:50 UTC

i don't even pretend to understand how google makes money anymore. they just do

2016-09-21 18:56:20 UTC

youtube costs so much to host i heard it loses lots of money

2016-09-21 18:56:28 UTC

i'm sure there's a logical explanation but everyone just says "ADSENSE YO"

2016-09-21 18:56:38 UTC

probably.

2016-09-21 18:57:00 UTC

Alphabet might literally just be a mandate of the accounting department.

2016-09-21 18:57:10 UTC

so they can keep their losers segregated and understood

2016-09-21 18:57:35 UTC

but that's wallstreetbets talk

2016-09-21 18:57:44 UTC

ohhh

2016-09-21 18:57:46 UTC

interesting

2016-09-21 18:58:35 UTC

im js itd be hard to start a youtube alternative from nothing

2016-09-21 18:58:50 UTC

if u expect it to grow

2016-09-21 18:59:06 UTC

nah you could

2016-09-21 18:59:23 UTC

bandwidth has gotten cheaper and you could put some limits in to save b/w

2016-09-21 18:59:53 UTC

for example you could mandate that people use your encoder and do h265/vp10 encoding on THEIR machines using your client and save a ton on compute alone

2016-09-21 19:00:13 UTC

spread your vids across low cost providers and make a rough and tumble cdn of sorts

2016-09-21 19:00:31 UTC

the labor is the worst part but you could make that more streamlined

2016-09-21 19:00:35 UTC

mods i mean

2016-09-21 19:01:00 UTC

now, would you actually do it? probably not

2016-09-21 19:01:26 UTC

and yes i'm mentioning encoding formats that don't work in current browsers cause if you do it today you're gonna aim for 2+ years in the future

2016-09-21 19:01:57 UTC

and the bandwidth savings alone would get you a little bit ahead, which is kinda cheating and being the more agile guy

2016-09-21 19:05:45 UTC

the reason that new sites don't pop up like mushrooms is more because when shit becomes a utility like yt is, the work vs reward becomes so small that nobody cares anymore. but look at little things like openings.moe for an example of what a targeted application of a similar use case would be, a simple illustration of an analogue to the relationship between a smaller entity solving a smaller problem that the larger utility just isn't designed to

2016-09-21 19:06:12 UTC

what reason a shitty company like VEVO can't do the same? lack of imagination

2016-09-21 19:06:25 UTC

politics

2016-09-21 19:06:42 UTC

there are a ton of chink video sites though

2016-09-21 19:13:16 UTC

what does the 'look at little things like openings' part mean ?

2016-09-21 19:13:43 UTC

http://openings.moe

2016-09-21 19:13:56 UTC

^ one guy made that, the files are tiny

2016-09-21 19:14:30 UTC

on the other hand vevo hosts their shit on youtube... for various reasons

2016-09-21 19:15:21 UTC

youtube is like geocities in its heyday

2016-09-21 19:15:32 UTC

thats dope

2016-09-21 19:15:37 UTC

the future of video sites is going to be a lot of targeted video

2016-09-21 19:16:30 UTC

that's just the way all shit works

2016-09-21 19:16:57 UTC

oh yeah for sure... im sure they already do some of that

2016-09-21 19:17:01 UTC

there's no incentive in being first to build the most awesome utility

2016-09-21 19:17:26 UTC

otoh it's pretty dumb to build your foundation on someone else's shit

2016-09-21 19:17:37 UTC

targeted like niche sites or targeted like adsense ?

2016-09-21 19:17:45 UTC

niche

2016-09-21 19:18:41 UTC

we're gonna laugh at vevo on youtube and companies on twitter in 20 years the way we can laugh at how big companies used to hold their presence on AOL or some ISP site

2016-09-21 19:20:05 UTC

otoh if governments keep getting in the way of technology that might not happen

2016-09-21 19:20:16 UTC

but that's just my libertarian showing

2016-09-21 19:20:32 UTC

This was pretty interesting to warch

2016-09-21 19:20:42 UTC

wut

2016-09-21 19:20:48 UTC

openings.moe ?

2016-09-21 19:20:55 UTC

Just the conversarion

2016-09-21 19:21:01 UTC

Conversation

2016-09-21 19:21:10 UTC

more like a soliloquy

2016-09-21 19:21:47 UTC

i drank too much coffee and am trying really hard to not get any work done today

2016-09-21 19:22:21 UTC

that's what i get for brewing so much delicious iced coffee in mason jars

2016-09-21 19:22:28 UTC

i liked it i never thought of any of that shit

2016-09-21 19:22:30 UTC

fucking shit is like crack

2016-09-21 19:22:48 UTC

also never realized vevo was visa and not part of youtube

2016-09-21 19:22:50 UTC

Hit me with a coffee famalama

2016-09-21 19:28:11 UTC

well the first stage is going to be a lot of "hosted video" and that's kinda already happening

2016-09-21 19:28:20 UTC

i think HBO is hosted by MLBAM

2016-09-21 19:28:26 UTC

the baseball people

2016-09-21 19:28:53 UTC

but eventually everyone will try to do video as that stuff becomes demystified

2016-09-21 19:28:59 UTC

on their own or whatever

2016-09-21 19:29:47 UTC

so every has-been media and tv station is going to try to run their own version of hulu

2016-09-21 19:30:11 UTC

but the smarts will likely be content producers hosting and monetizing their own shit
