The worst thing about online learning is that everything has become a video.

@Daojoan @sashabilton True. But there are exceptions.

The worst thing about online learning is that everything has become a video. Every code tutorial. Every design tutorial. Nobody actually writes out a guide anymore. It's just "hey guys welcome to my tutorial" and watching 10 minutes of content that isn't remotely relevant...
Are you setting up your AI skills.md file so that it only gives you the advertisements and weekly drama you're interested in instead of random ones after you ask it to write out a guide for you?

@Daojoan “Could this 10 minute video have been a 2 minute read?”

@Daojoan Roots feed the branches, and during any 'leap' change, as has been the computer age, there requires a countermeasure to fill the gap/deficit that's left in said "leap".
And as a byproduct of millions of years, of harder physical differentials, placing too much weight on software, and far less on hardware, results in the inevitable asymmetry we're seeing now.
May as well be a brain in a vat, while cockroaches inherit your past potential.

@Daojoan if it's a video 9 times out of 10 I will not view it. If I must view it, I will not play it, but skip through it as fast as I can.
If it's on YouTube? Forget it.

Have fun, people.

@CountHoldem @Daojoan What's so wrong with empowering the cockroaches? They should be given every tool to succeed, lol.

@SnowBlind2005 is this a serious message or a joke, I can't tell.
-
@Daojoan No worries, we now have VibeMaster 2000
to transform video tutorials into badly written and half-wrong written guides!@thomasfuchs point me to it, oh wise one.

@Daojoan My brain can very easily retain information I have read in text. I have a very hard time remembering what somebody said in spoken words.
-
@Daojoan
But every information is repeated 5 times, to get the 10 minutes video filled up.
With garbage. -
@Daojoan it's so goddamn infuriating. And you can't search for info anywhere, because all the support/community is only on discord now
I blame Discord on the downfall of the modern web. You used to be able to find answers to your problems easily on moderated forums, where people used to follow the rules of netiquette. Nowadays you need to join private server and scroll through endless spam.
IDK who had the idea of moving the support/community into de facto chatroom that is Discord, but there is a special place in hell for them.

@Daojoan makes me want to make a tutorial video that's just the text of the tutorial slowly scrolling past

For me it has been a blessing. I've always struggled to keep focused when reading walls of text, but now I can get a visual guide.
For quick "was it Y?" I've never failed to find a brief written answer (usually in SO, reddit or the rare forum post).
For long tutorials, I've managed to find stuff that gets to the point very fast. SponsorBlock for YouTube is also pretty good for skipping meanderings.
We have choices now. What works for you is good, what works for others is also good.

Food bloggers used to write things down. That is, they used to teach you how to cook. Nowadays, they still write, but it's like every article starts with, "I was born on a farm in Nebraska..."

@Netraven Right now in our history, dolphins server a better porpoise.
-
@sashabilton @aoe @Daojoan There are exceptions because Video production requires a specific skill set, as does teaching stuff and they two worlds rarely interface successfully for the viewer.

@Daojoan "first, a shout out to my sponsor, BLARF. I've been using BLARF for years, and they are absolutely the best at what they do. Also, make sure to smash like, and subscribe to my channel."

@Daojoan Absolutely correct

@CountHoldem I doubt the sea will fare much better than the land by the time Humans are done.
The good news is that language is structure and structure is tool shaped. Tools don't require explanation for any thinking organism to understand how to pick them up, and use them again.
