I hate watching video, generally - please just write up your points in an article or blog post. At the very least, post the script you obviously wrote up and read from. This is particularly infuriating for tutorials on how to use/configure a piece of software, especially if it involves running any sh commands. I really don't want to sit there and scrub through the youtube video to try and find the one point I can get the full command on the terminal in a visible, focused area.
That being said, I do occasionally watch Computerphile youtube videos.
- armenarmen 11y agoI agree. Reading is so much faster, and control-f is my best friend, I might feel differently if videos were more easily searchable but probably not.
- slikts 11y agoI have YouTube set to 1.5x tempo by default (with an extension), and watch things at 2x if possible (Ctrl+> is the keyboard shortcut for upping the tempo). Reading is still faster, but not by that much. Ctrl+F is still a problem, though, but for that you can typically find a different source.
- slikts 11y agoThe shortcut is actually Shift+>.
- vacri 11y agoThese youtube channels are not "how to configure a software tool" channels.
