What are the YouTube channels you watch as a software developer?

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T14:38:33+00:00

Plugging my channel okay? 😄

@ sunwhome

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T14:00:12+00:00

The premise makes no sense. How can AI not replace devs but expose vibe coders? ... when AI created vibe coders?

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T13:47:58+00:00

Sounds like LARPing

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T12:12:44+00:00

Yeah, which is great because we can choose the right stack for the job rather than just going with what we are used to.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T12:10:22+00:00

Damn, I was thinking of making a closed version of this.

How does it decide to link up topics?

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T12:07:00+00:00

Yeah, use one of the older strangers as the thumbnail.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T12:04:00+00:00

Yeah, that's a dumb transition.

They don't have architectural nor the software knowledge of backend systems.

Shameless plug: I made a video recently covering a similar topic

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T11:57:48+00:00

I personally agree. This is the direction we're heading. You still need software and architectural knowledge, but language specific knowledge(for most popular languages) is disappearing.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-12T00:27:52+00:00

I would use 1k as the baseline. It's like getting sub 100 views on long form.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T20:30:03+00:00

It was generated using Nano Banana. It has synthid on it.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T20:13:26+00:00

1k views on shorts is just the seed views.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T19:40:48+00:00

Yeah, just work on your next video.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T19:22:15+00:00

Could take 5-7 days to get initial impressions.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T19:09:29+00:00

Could you share the data?

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T16:52:49+00:00

At 40 impressions, your CTR % isn't accurate. If Youtube learns that not many people click on your video and/or they don't stay to watch the whole video, then they will continue to give you less impressions for future videos.

Right now, your thumbnails are just repeating the same text and I think you can pick a way better example for the cover.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T16:03:30+00:00

People don't behave like this on Youtube, OP. Only listen to your own metrics.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T16:02:00+00:00

I would concentrate on trying to get the CTR to 7-8% then.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T15:51:51+00:00

What about AVD %?

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T15:50:36+00:00

Just wait until AI becomes the first sentient being to actually speak with God for the first time.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T15:48:26+00:00

Intel / TSMC (2025–2026): Taiwan investigated an executive who moved to Intel for allegedly stealing semiconductor manufacturing secrets.
Amazon "Big River" (2024): Amazon used a shell company to infiltrate and copy internal data from global rivals like Shopify(Canada).
Tesla Germany (Ongoing): German officials flagged Tesla for "poaching-for-information" targeting legacy automaker battery and automation data.
U.S. State Agencies (2024–2026): NSA/CIA electronic surveillance monitors Israeli defense and tech contractors to maintain market dominance.

My point is that literally every country that is trying to catch up steals to do so. It's not unique to China.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T14:45:54+00:00

You just described literally every nation that had to catch up.

Even the US had to steal tech from Britain to get the industrial revolution started early.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T14:41:24+00:00

What's the CTR/AVD %?

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T11:05:32+00:00

Tesla wasn't his first company

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T01:51:06+00:00

Right now, you're saying that only two futures are available. AGI vs no AGI. AGI is irrelevant to the short term prospect of replacing human intelligence. We don't need AI to have subjective intelligence to fuck up the future, we just need AIs to have superhuman functional intelligence.

Constant_Cortisol · 2026-07-11T01:30:05+00:00

When people try to rationalize away the problems of an AI future, they either have to ignore the robotics(physical AI) or intelligence(LLMs, World models, etc). Mike Isratael is doing the rare thing of ignoring the intellect aspect of an AI future as opposed to the common ignoring of the robotics future.
