Where does the buck stop then?


Do you think not even Wikipedia could pull this off? Maybe is content was limited for Scientific channels? Maybe if Wikipedia buys Subbable, and uses VP9 to reduce some bandwidth costs?


Well, I was thinking more in terms of discoverability. Like if we treat Wikipedia for answers about facts, we should have a place like that for videos. If there was a video about science, and people are looking for that content. My main struggle with Youtube it's discovery page, and content creators having to do certain things to compete with mediocre content.


I was thinking maybe in terms of editorial content, regulated by a few of smarty pants. Less about views or likes.


I feel like someone needs to take control of the experience, since publishing platforms are so garbage right now.


I feel like making a video from this response. This is such a good analogy.


Interesting. How do you feel about HN not having pictures?


It doesn't bother me. It helps make HN fast to load.


Yes, I agree with you with most of what you said, however, there are dozens of programming languages in English that don't get enough attention, why can't a non-English language be popular in its part of the world?


I should have said the non-English programing languages that you guys like.


Well, I'm not a programmer so let's hope that this gets some traction, it's an interesting subject ¡gracias!


Steve Jobs believed that everyone will have a computer in every home. So I say ... umm... yes.
