I’m looking for almost exactly this, but an abstraction or two higher - software architecture. Almost like SICP but as a course where I can follow along in more bite size chunks with video lectures. Does anyone have a recommended course?

It also works for Facebook (!), though FB keeps changing the API / keys so make sure to keep an updated youtube-dl.
> It also works for Facebook (!) People often assume that youtube-dl only works with YouTube because of the name, but it actually works with a really huge amount of sites, including Vimeo and Twitch. You can see the full list of extractors that they have in the source here: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/tree/master/youtube_d...

#45This is one of the best courses at ETH (computer science). Too bad I finished the PhD before this course was there. Another very interesting course is "Reliable and Interpretable Artificial Intelligence".
Which is not freely available. Do you know where we could have access to it? Thanks!
EDIT: some miswording.

#46In high school I used to watch Onur's lectures while he was still at CMU. Probably a significant reason for where I am now.

I've actually started to hate YouTube so much (just for being terrible to content-creators and consumers, and supporting toxic videos (time watched is a ranking factor, promoting high-engagement "edgeline videos)), and so on and so forth) that I wanted to create a white-label HTML video player that would keep the benefits of a consistent, well-made UI but drop the publisher aspect of YouTube. I don't think I ever wil…
And the player needs to fit into an ecosystem that will cover the bandwidth costs of the video it streams. I don't think that's a simple part of the system if one is seeking to avoid having any advertising (a good goal, that I'm absolutely for).
Honestly I was thinking that some sort of integration where content creators could be directly contacted by advertisers - who would pay for in-video advertising by the content creator (this is more for personalities than for corporations) - and have a vetted way to be payed for their time / platform / ads would work (with companies paying to be part of that system). This would result in higher quality ads that are more beneficial to the content creator than the video distributor (a goal I view as equally good). And to benefit the companies advertising, you could create a tool where shorter clips of the advertisement could be sent back and forth, previewed, and approved as needed (if integrated with a payment system, this protects both parties from a bad deal).
I also think some, but not all, content creators would view paying for a small hosting company to store and stream their videos in the same way they view buying a new webcam or microphone.

#50Wow, very DRAM centric view of computer architecture. Where is Tomasulo algorithm, for example.. Not as much about caches that I would expect.. Maybe there are other courses for this stuff.
