I will definitely add some of these words to my vocabulary. I also like the background music too. I wish I knew what it was. Besides that, this was an awesome video. # 10 Overused English Words - Explified
You have a nice voice, but all you did was read this off Wikipedia. I appreciate having a nice voice read things to me, but you didn't actually explain anything...
I know this is an older video but this is a great and simplified explanation of despotism. I also like the examples of what despotism isn't. The topics of each video on this channel are very educational and entertaining to watch. Keep up with the amazing content. # What Is Despotism: Despotism Meaning Explained - Explified
This is a confusing description of Amara's law. Not to mention, I'm not certain this is such a relevant law. When the IBM PC was introduced in August of 1981, the reception was quite good. And as newer, faster models were released, both from IBM and copy cats like Compaq, sales continued to grow. But no one could possibly have seen where it would lead. Even Bill Gates was blindsided. So, there was no overestimation in those early years. At first, you would have a computer on your desk with some kind of productivity software, like Word Perfect, and you had your own printer. As time went on, we started networking those computers together so that users could share data and resources, like a laser printer. As storage increased and prices dropped, our ability to store large amounts of information on our desktop or LAN (Local Area Network) increased exponentially. So far, what I'm describing is the opposite of Amara's Law: People underestimated the effect of PC technology, but it just kept evolving into something more fantastic than before. In the early 90s we were introduced to Bulletin Boards, which were quickly followed by the Netscape browser and access to the World Wide Web. Again, there was still no overestimating or underestimating. So, here we are in 2024 looking back on the past 43 years and we see a singular technology that created perhaps the greatest economic ecosystem on the planet: the IBM PC and her compatibles + the advent of the iMac, the iPhone and the iPad (and various other computer devices). The iPhone (and all other smart phones) is a computer parading as a telephone and the iPad is a computer that took mobility and portability to a whole new level. They're everywhere, from doctor offices to warehouses to shipping companies to military units to wherever. And even though Apple uses a separate operating system they still merged into the same ecosystem as the PC because of the mutual connectivity of the internet, email, ecommerce, etc. All I see is a beautiful evolution that no one saw in 1981. Not even Steve Jobs. People didn't overestimate the PC revolution early on or underestimate it later. In fact, the opposite is more true. We expected more from computers by the 90s and we demanded it. Roy Amara isn't here to defend himself, so hopefully, someone else will.
