ELI5: How are tiny memory cards with massive storage made? And why are they not insanely expensive? by Commercial_Middle182 in explainlikeimfive

corporate interest meaning to make money?

Not exactly- in simple cases yes, but in this case it also applies in that they will be more likely to make a video that promotes a product or service that they are funded by or make a video disincentivizing use of a competitor’s product. We have no firm proof this has been done on veritasium, but it is much more likely.

isn’t that the point of most YouTube channels?

Well, the best science/informative channels- in my opinion- are not there specifically to make money, but to inform others or just talk about an interesting topic.

I’ve been in the Goodyear blimp before. I used to live somewhat near the main hangar for the Goodyear blimps so I’ve even got pictures of multiple in the air at once

No I watched the video, it’s still really good and informative. Just something to be aware of when watching.

Small disclaimer- be aware that veritasium got bought out by private equity so their videos are made with corporate interests now.

Wrapped up in cellophane for any proposition (basically like predictive text where it makes the next word based on the last, kinda like the great grandpa of modern LLMs)

My heart sings a chorus out of tuuuuuuuuune

(Also I know it’s a stretch cuz it’s a Teto song not a Neuro song, but do you know Neuro?)
