Starts with philosophy and conspiracies and ends with hope. It gave me also food for thought related to current RL events.

Although it’s mostly academic now, I still find the whole disastrous launch of the Xbone morbidly fascinating. This is a great video on the subject that popped into my feed.
new Shaun video is good
How is this over two hours long?
YouTube documentarians really need to start studying the craft of constructing a succinct argument and presenting it within a reasonable run time.

i find him very calming and could listen to him talk for ten times the time.
the video doesnt even come to a “necessary” or “new” conclusion, i just like his straight forward coverage with insightful asides.
his visuals are also unnecessary in my opinion. i think of it more as a podcast on a topic i’m interested in.
i’m just saying don’t worry about that length.
how bad is this gunna make me feel?
Really Bad.
Then good.
Then bad again but with some hope.

One of my biggest issues when going through uni was that I was able to make my points in like 500-1000 words, rather than the 2000+ they wanted for essays. Even with the SEGA book now, I’m editing it and thinking “should I have more detail?”
The problem is I think a lot of people get lost in the trees and can’t see the forest. Obviously you need to cover all salient points, but it reaches a point where it just becomes noise and doesn’t really add anything to the explanation/ discussion.

An interesting video on how the Sony PSX boot sound is stored in the bios and constructed on startup.
Bonus: the information is presented in under two hours!

When I read of the two Russian tankers breaking, I immediately had to think of this. Such a classic.

Utterly brilliant.
