This certainly looks like a major issue for media production. I know I have a ton of clients who are only set up to take .mov/H.264 files, and I have no idea how this will affect them yet.

I tried it in 2013 but got bogged down in getting the POS-tagging working right. POS-tagging has improved in the meantime, so someone should give it a shot again...

The other thing about YouTube takedowns is that they're often technically not DMCA takedowns anymore. Technically, false DMCA claims open the claimer to penalties. But, if the Content ID match (even on a false positive) or one of YouTu

I expect that the naive traffic sim implementation is to simulate everyone following their GPS perfectly. Real humans seem to have a bit more randomness and a mix of different driving patterns. I wonder how regular GPS use has changed real-

Um, a narrow focus on three women doesn't exclude the possibility that they're generally misogynistic. (And it's an error to reduce "misogyny" to a conscious hatred of women, that's one definition of the word,
