Hearted Youtube comments on PolyMatter (@PolyMatter) channel.

  1. I am honesty surprised how well researched this video is. Most videos I seen about Singapore are way off. You even capture many of the real social issues that you will probably need local context and talking to actual locals to understand. Definitely going to hit the bell and subscribed!

  2. You've really perfected this animation style! 💪

  8. Lol yes the Florida flag would have definitely clashed in a nicely designed and nice animated video.

  9. You should file a patent for smooth transition to the sponsor part

  12. I actually slightly disagree with the conclusion that Apple should just make a more powerful Apple TV with a different controller. Apple hates fragmentation for a reason:1. Game devs would have to decide if they want to develop a game with a proper controller/better graphics in mind, or if they want to support the limited apple TV remote for example.2. The Apple TV app store would be split into "pro" and "regular" apps, adding complexity. 3. It would introduce unnecessary choice for consumers during the purchase process. Do they want to take gaming seriously or do they just want Candy Crush? Where exactly is the cutoff point between the two models? Apple doesn't like to burden the user with such choice, because usually choice kills conversion (users get confused and just don't buy either). 4. Apple fundamentally doesn't believe it can trust users to properly understand what the difference between two similar looking devices is. Rightfully so. If it looks like an Apple TV and it's called an AppleTV, but doesn't play all the AppleTV games, then people will get upset. This was kind-of the problem with Windows RT. Looked like Windows, but didn't run classic Windows apps. 5. I can't think of two Apple products in one product category that use fundamentally different input methods. classic iPods = scrollwheel, iPhones/iPads = multitouch, Macs = mice/trackpads + keyboards. Not sure Apple TVs should be the first category to break that trend.I think they would do best if they replicated their iPhone strategy. Make one kick-ass all-round device for the device category. Promote (and support) it until everyone understands what it fundamentally does. Once it is established, add new versions, but don't break backwards compatibility and don't support two different input methods at once. What do you think?

  13. That ad was slick.

  18. As an individual who drove uber for a year and gave 1200+ rides I appreciate this video. I do want to be clear on specifically what causes different profit margins for different drivers, because it is definitely not the same driver to driver. -car type (2008 Camry vs 2015 Camry, same outcome in service delivered but cost of use is very different) -tax benefits (honestly, you can completely own the tax exemptions if you’re focused and organized) - there are some serious loopholes that maybe 2-3% of drivers know about, and it is shocking -choosing when to drive. 3-8 am vs middle of the day, weekends rather than weekdays, where to drive -choosing how you drive (aggressiveness) - this was illustrated in a study showing a gender gap in earnings for uber driver -what you offer when you drive (accessories, accommodations, complementary items) These are just a few examples and regardless, thank you for the video! I really enjoyed it and keep up the fantastic work.

  23. I just wanted to let you know the astounding quality of your videos. My YouTube experience would be severely degraded if this channel alone stopped producing content.

  24. That sponsor is so smooth that I almost become brilliant

  25. You nailed it. On every point man.

  26. You and wendover productions finesse those ads into the videos so well I actually want to go check the sites out. This is what good, effective marketing and advertising looks like. Ads don't suck, bad ads suck. Keep making excellent videos! :)

  29. Really interesting video! Gave me an entire new perspective
    522
  30. I went into this already disagreeing with the videos thesis. By the end of it you'd countered every point I had, and had convinced me of your stance. Thank you for this, it was quite eye opening

  31. This video is pure genius

  33. Oh my god. I am a CS student and I’ve been thinking about this exact same thing recently. I cannot express how much I agree with you! It bothers me so much when people talk about this without knowing what it’s really like. And let me just point out that if it were that easy then I wouldn’t be going for 4+ years to university to do this. Programming is so much more than knowing how to write code.

  34. As a cruise addict (just sailed cruises # 25 in january and 26 in march) I really enjoyed this subject. A few more details about cruise ships: - They recycle everything they can, Royal Caribbean family ships even have a "Recycling Officer" in charge of the trash/recyclables sorting and packaging room. The recycled material like the metal, crushed glass and bundled paper is sold in ports. In the end they produce very little garbage VS how much they consume. - For a fee, they offer "behind the scenes" tours of the areas of the ship off limits to passengers. It's well worth it if you are a cruise ship geek like me. - Most Royal Caribbean ships have PADI dive masters/instructors on board and you can earn your Open Water scuba certification on their ships. - Towel Animals were popularised by Carnival Cruise lines and are now common to all cruise lines. - Cabin are priced are at double occupancy. A person travelling alone must buy the whole cabin so they pay a 150% to 200% single supplement (except on some NCL ship which have "Solo Studio" cabins for people travelling alone). - Another way the lines make money on cruise ships is upsell restaurants. Though main dining room and buffet food is included on cruises, ships will often have one or more "premium" restaurant you must pay extra for. - In most cases personnel working in the shops, art gallery and spa don't work for the cruise line. The lines contract out those services.

  35. As a Hong Konger, I am so glad to see foreigners are paying attention on our political affairs with China. Thanks PolyMatter

  36. Awesome video! I love you and your videos. Without you I would be sad lol :P. Keep doing what you are doing and I hope the best of your channel!

  37. Thank you for this video, especially for differentiating between CS and Programming. As a CS PhD student and educator, I encounter hundreds of students misled by the "everybody can code" narrative pushed by universities, programs like Hour of Code, and so on. They're not the same thing, great video.

  43. I like the perpetual license subscription model, like used for some IDEs, and indeed Sketch. You pay for one year of updates (minor and major). When the subscription expires, you can perpetually use the latest version released during the subscription period, or pay for another year of updates. The benefit of the user is that they can choose to “buy” the software once (plus updates for a year) with a one-year non-renewing subscription and use it until it inevitably breaks (since operating systems evolve) or choose to continually pay the developers if they like the updates (and thus the work put in). This model is ideal for large apps that have room to grow, as is the case for most professional software. Small utility apps like an AR measuring app should completely stay away from subscription models.

  44. I'm just here to say that I read The Dictator's Handbook and I love the way you made videos based on it. Thank you so much!

  45. You deserve each and every one of those 100K subs. Keep up the good work!

  46. It looks like you got hit by dislike bots for some reason. Idk why. Sorry man.
