This Is How The Internet Dies [Complete Script]

ICANN

The Internet does not exist. What we colloquially refer to as the Internet is just a global network of all networks, formed by a consensus of voluntary participants.

In a network of computers, devices have to be assigned unique identifiers in order to be able to find and send information between each other. If more networks want to make connections, they have to coordinate t...

I need you to criticize me more

There  is a global shortage of accepting criticism and disagreement without  imploding egos or burning bridges.

Simon (Closed Ntwrk) just sent this tweet. He said that sponsors that do this are buying objectivity and it's true. If anyone tells you they are "transparent" about their sponsors, ask them how much money they take from each sponsor. They won't tell you because they can't. It's NOT transparent.

Playlist of all of my old Patreon-only episodes

My older Patreon-only episodes were posted as unlisted YouTube videos. I posted them to 0 and 1 tiers on Patreon page, which means tiers from qubit and higher and can't see the older posts. Patreon doesn't allow bulk editing of old posts. I'd have to manually edit visibility settings of hundreds of posts. Hence, here's the playlist for your convenience. The default order is from the latest to t...

Maybe I don't deserve your support. But I will do everything I can to fulfill my promise!

Words will never do justice to express how absolutely stunned and humbled I am by all of your support. I've been having really negative thoughts lately and I thought I am not good enough for my audience. And I am not sure if I ever will. But I believe in this message. I don't want to stop unless I am stopped. And your support has given me hope that I can keep doing this a little longer ...
