Do people actually do code reviews per commit? I know it's a thing, but in all my years of experience, I haven't met anyone who actually does this. The usual practice is to review …

Right. Street View would be a big loss, but YouTube has accumulated so much (garbage) content that it wouldn't matter if it disappears. Good content would find its way to be publis…

Only one tech giant? Not much, the other tech giants would take over. Life without YouTube? It would take a week for most of us to recover. 99% of the content in YouTube is garbage…
