Barbarians at the Gate. It's NABISCO all over again

John Oliver is a really happy man today

Can't wait for him to talk shit about "new business daddy".

Apple's footprint in BigCorp is a drop in the ocean compared to MS. You said it yourself, "certain software they depend on only exists in the Windows world". That is intentional and the reason is because of MS dominance in BigCorp. Most makers don't find it worthwhile to spend so much time and resources building software for Apple when it has so few users at that level.


I am lost as to how all this works, so apologies for some dumb quesions:

1) If a person's channel is terminated, can they not already open another channel?

2) How is this different from a person either opening a new channel or getting a new Gmail and opening a new channel?


> Circumvention of channel termination

>If your YouTube channel is terminated, you are prohibited from using, possessing, or creating any other YouTube channels. You are also prohibited from letting others whose YouTube channels have been terminated use your YouTube channel to bypass their termination.

>This applies to all of your existing channels, any new channels you create or acquire, and any channels in which you are repeatedly or prominently featured.

Wow Google really think they are the law


law? it's their platform.

and ban evasion is a persistent problem on any platform


what's the highest accuracy, i.e. smallest radius, possible for IP addresses? When I went to the site it defaulted to 10


Lovely interface. This is quite impressive. I can't seem to get a terminal running though. Can I actually execute scripts here? I opened code and created a hello.py, terminal did not come up in Code either.


Thank you so much! We are working on a Linux emulator that would allow you to run most programs. It's currently a bit behind but coming out soon :)


'Poor' is subjective. Some might even use it to describe your comment.


Yup. It is now ad after ad. For me, it's long form ads too. So it would be a whole interview with some celebrity or CEO just randomly popping. Besides the Liberty Liberty nonsense, the shortest ones I am getting are whole movie trailers. It's crazy.


Maybe it's just me, but I do not get your point. Would you mind clearing it up?


What does it take to build such a model? As in, the key steps. And how expensive does it get? I might be interested in being a regional player and winner as well, lol. In my own corner of the world in Africa.


Not much... Just the willingness to work hard on this problem instead of others problems where large revenue is perhaps quicker :)

Ingredients: Decent audio scraping skills, hiring great voice actors for each language, algos to gather text/audio with diverse phonetics, decent ML skills (enough to merge the best features of a few different papers). Lots and lots of data labels (and your own tools to get the data labeled efficiently) And finally GPUs!!!!

None of this is technically hard... the hardest thing is working with Voice Actors (oh man!!!)
