I still prefer Veritaisum over a channel like Mark Rober which has almost 4x the subscribers, with content that sounds informational, but is really just dumbed down. Maybe Mark Rober is more aimed at younger kids, but they both are very similar with trying to make math and science accessible, but executed differently and I think Veriatsium done better.

With videos with exclusive access, i'd imagine it's difficult to do all the fact checking of everything the company is telling you. Tom Scott also dealt with this, and it requires a tremendous effort. If there are lies being spread and the description isn't updated or a pinned comment on the video set, then yeah, that's shitty behavior, but generally I haven't seen that from Derk.

I hate Trump as much as the next person, and virtually all the pandemic response was a shit show from the White House, but operation warp speed proved to be an actual good thing during a terrible time. It's very impressive we developed a vaccine so quickly and got us out of the pandemic faster because of it. It's kinda funny how one of his best accomplishments is the only thing his supporters will boo him about, and he largely can't take the credit for because of the backlash.

That last video is clearly someone at Tesla being maliciously compliant with the safety rules to check off a box and pass inspection. Whoever designed that does not actually care about safety.

On Jan 20th, she's going from Vice President to unemployed. Unemployed to governor would be a step up.

How screwed would one be if the domain they bought was a ccTLD and that country ceased to exist?

I'm in a similar boat here. Classic Peter Principal in action. It sucks that management comes with higher pay. If I was making what I make now and just be an individual contributor I would totally go for that. I guess that's why they have to pay you to do it, because it's no fun.

Pretty sure when Orange Box was released, it included HL2 and HL2 Episode 1 in addition to HL2 Episode 2. Hard to remember because there were so many good games that came from that one purchase.
