schestowitz-TR | I stopped watching the video because her explanation is not clear | Apr 25 10:57 |
schestowitz-TR | and the later video, wqhich I pasted above, explains things | Apr 25 10:57 |
schestowitz-TR | much better as it concurs with what I've long suspected | Apr 25 10:57 |

schestowitz-TR | based on something from 2014, way before callimng him "hero" | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | and then alleging he was buddies with epstein | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | when it was in fact bill gates | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | which again led me to thinking, how on earth can the lawyers eever justify those prison visits? | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | isn't mr. "too busy saving the world" aware of what epstein did? | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | People must bring it upo each time billg raears his ugly head again | Apr 25 11:05 |
Techrights-sec | the prison visits are suspicious to the point of incriminating | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | what ballmer did is likely legal, but gross | Apr 25 11:05 |
schestowitz-TR | billg can be arrested | Apr 25 11:05 |

schestowitz-TR | lbry when Ic hecked in 2020 MANDATED that I enter their "scheme" AND put some money in it | Apr 25 11:16 |
schestowitz-TR | i.e. become "active" user | Apr 25 11:16 |

Techrights-sec | yep that's one of the reasons | Apr 25 11:19 |
Techrights-sec | twitter has basicaly been about the same as the other social control medai: | Apr 25 11:41 |
Techrights-sec | mass manipulation of opinion; sometimes it is for political purposes, | Apr 25 11:41 |

Techrights-sec | resist and they do manage to weasel their way in everywehre | Apr 25 11:43 |
schestowitz-TR | in the case of wordpress dot com it is worse than in youtube in the sense that | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | the free stuff they give you is just a little cpu and maybe a little b/w | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | with netflix and gulagtube the costs of b/w are a lot higher | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | esp. as more people and companies do HD | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | so the justification of the "trade" between space ands ads is rather unfasair | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | now youtube bans people for trying to do ads within videos | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | like linux laptop giveaway | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | for being a competition basically | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | factor I saw nobody int nhe media speaking about: the cost of b/w | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | went up because retail energy costs are higher | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | 100,000 servers and energy bill up 300 per annum = 30 million more in operating expenses | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | not even counting routers and such | Apr 25 11:50 |
schestowitz-TR | in south korea they pursued netflix subcharges | Apr 25 11:55 |
schestowitz-TR | as internete subscribers did not pay "enough" for the infra | Apr 25 11:55 |

Techrights-sec | routing is energy intensive | Apr 25 11:56 |

schestowitz-TR | "well, he's dead" | Apr 25 11:59 |
schestowitz-TR | I'm going toi think of articles to do not | Apr 25 11:59 |
schestowitz-TR | not really allured by 500 unredad items under "patents" | Apr 25 11:59 |
schestowitz-TR | i cherry=ick from these from now on | Apr 25 11:59 |
Techrights-sec | I wonder if theree is a heuristic which can be used to sample the crap patent | Apr 25 12:01 |
Techrights-sec | articles | Apr 25 12:01 |
Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 25 12:01 |
schestowitz-TR | i know what you are going to say and I thought about that too, but it's a big project | Apr 25 12:02 |
schestowitz-TR | esp. as the problem domain is not generic | Apr 25 12:02 |
schestowitz-TR | that's like suggestinmg that patent examination can be done by "hey hi" | Apr 25 12:02 |
schestowitz-TR | and not a domain expert who actually graps what is read, knows other inventions, knows | Apr 25 12:02 |
schestowitz-TR | other patrents (not the same), and can figure out if it's trivial or BS | Apr 25 12:02 |
Techrights-sec | the examination cannot be done with AI or machine learning because too much | Apr 25 12:03 |
Techrights-sec | is abstract and requires actua deep domain expertise not just a vague | Apr 25 12:03 |
Techrights-sec | statistical constellation of strings | Apr 25 12:03 |
schestowitz-TR | the CSC or SUEPO already explored the subject | Apr 25 12:03 |
schestowitz-TR | one argument is that to bypass the "algos" | Apr 25 12:03 |
schestowitz-TR | one can alter the words a bit | Apr 25 12:03 |
schestowitz-TR | to confuse the algo | Apr 25 12:03 |
schestowitz-TR | it'll be like the "SEO of patent profession" | Apr 25 12:03 |

Techrights-sec | is abstract and requires actua deep domain expertise not just a vague | Apr 25 12:05 |

Techrights-sec | yes I reemphasize the essential nature of in-depth domain expertise in the | Apr 25 12:05 |
Techrights-sec | evaluation process; However, I would think that the articles would be more | Apr 25 12:05 |

Techrights-sec | ges | Apr 25 12:05 |
schestowitz-TR | search for "cloest prior art" | Apr 25 12:07 |
schestowitz-TR | another "pilot" (bad programme, immersed in phases) | Apr 25 12:07 |
schestowitz-TR | like OOXML in USPTO (now with Microsoft Vidal in charge) | Apr 25 12:07 |
schestowitz-TR | gulag already guides examiners and you're meant to think string analysis will narrow things down | Apr 25 12:07 |
schestowitz-TR | to just one patent and that's all you need for examination | Apr 25 12:07 |
schestowitz-TR | but maybe that's what you get when 21 year olds with a science degree become "examiners" | Apr 25 12:07 |
Techrights-sec | I was just ranting (offline0 yesterday about the OOXML scandales from ages ago | Apr 25 12:08 |
Techrights-sec | the damage from that still goes on | Apr 25 12:08 |

schestowitz-TR | I am testing a theory of mine about gulagtube | Apr 25 12:42 |
schestowitz-TR | related to the second video I posted | Apr 25 12:42 |
schestowitz-TR | I think they deny access to or thottle "unsuccessful" videos | Apr 25 12:42 |
schestowitz-TR | because like Internet Archive | Apr 25 12:42 |
schestowitz-TR | they keep one set of videos not "off the cliff" yet | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | sio they load faster and have copies in a datacentre near you | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | and then there is some "vault" for stale videos | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | like the ones that take ages for Wayback Machine to truen | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | no cache, no proximity to data | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | the second video says that they actively deny access to "too many" people | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | (viral) if your channel is low profile | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | I see no explanation for this counterintuitive policy unless it's tied to | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | cost andf technical overhead | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | (of course gulag won't admit this) | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | because on a daily basis, any given day, I reckon only 1% of videos will be accessed at all | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | the old ones are "archived" | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | if gulag can lower that to 0.1%, that's a big costint saving through CDNs and other | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | content distribution optimisations | Apr 25 12:43 |
schestowitz-TR | the trouble is, it means gulag actively DISCRIMINATES against the SMALL | Apr 25 12:43 |
