Congratulations! Being a (part-time) youtuber myself, can I ask what you are using for audio? It is indeed great!

I mean to function without being babysat, not (only) from an economic perspective. I'm not suggesting in any way a class-based education system, which are awful. I'm simply stating that if you are poor, your best bet is to pursue

Giving everyone the same chances is a principle pretty much everyone reasonable agrees with. What I'm saying is that if you are poor, your best bet is to choose to pursue whatever education brings you the best possible job.

It helps to first discuss what the purpose of the education system is before trying to reform it. In my view, the purpose should be: - enable each individual to function independently in society. For poor individuals, a technical education

This is great and very useful to me! What source are you getting the channels from? And how do you choose which channel goes in?

I would like to draw the attention to the precise wording around the statistics: """ In 1970, just 1 in 5 U.S.-born PhD graduates in economics had a parent with a graduate degree. Now? Two-thirds of them do, [...] ""

I use it for small video processing. It is better than openshot in my experience in terms of stability. The interface is reasonably good, with the exception of cropping, where you have to turn to ffmpeg (to be fair, all visual video editors

Perhaps you could have channel owners register their channel if they want to be indexed. That would be super useful.

Nice! Is it possible to do it without fixing the channel?

As an amateur YouTuber myself, this is disconcerting. A real video takes quite a lot of effort to do properly, especially if you try to aim for depth. The guy is obviously smart, but not doing the world a favour. It is similar to what happe

As a (tenured) academic myself, I fully understand the flexibility (and the lack thereof). A staff of 50-100 sounds like a true nightmare. I've experienced classes of ~500 students myself, but 2000 seems quite excessive. Congratulation

It is unfortunate when a talented teacher, as the OP seems to be, turn to industry for (significantly) more money, but this seems to be the way the market works pretty much everywhere around the world. There are however some advantages to a

Almost: +13 would be rewritten to ((()))+(((13))) and -13 to ((()))-(((13))). If you interpret the empty expression as 0, perhaps it would work out. Good question!

There are around 20 persons credited at the end, so that should give a rough estimate. It is quite well done. Animation and graphics is quite expensive to develop, since iterations in the development loop can take quite some time (think: do

I would not say they are on the way out, but definitely out of the mainstream and growth is limited in this space. I would say the same is true of podcasts to a certain degree, with quick videos taking over this space.
