      It’s about scale. If certain types of videos get 25% less views than other videos, the creator will be incentivized to not upload those types of videos, regardless of the total number of views. The same is true for smaller channels, just with a lower number of views to benchmark popularity.

      Love the philosophy that was shared when I read Siddhartha, it helped to understand myself and try meditation. Another amazing book series was by Robert Monroe's Journeys Out of The Body. Read that, saw his CIA Documents, looked up his Institute and his hemi sync sound therapy methods.. All profoundly amazing insights I'd recommended looking into. Another series that I would consider more bizzare but profound when your reading is the Law of One series by LL Research, the philosophy in that series is so indepth and has you consider the entirety of your experience in one of the most uncanny but redefining ways. It's worth the read.

    It's weird listening to someone who's read the divine commedy (Dante's Inferno) being an Italian student who has always studied it. I never heard of it as a 'normal book', but always as a poem. The most impressive thing (at least in the original italian version) is that it's all rhyming, it's like a huge rap song written in the 1300s

      @@professorigor4432 I know I'm not the one you asked, but I will answer since I also respect Felix. He dropped out of college and his parents did not support him financially, so he was selling hotdogs. He is coming from humble beginnings and even though he is now a millionaire, he stayed humble. He also donates a lot. He made a few mistakes during his career, but he learned from them. He has a variety of content too, from screaming at video games to book reviews. When you watch his videos it shows that he is just being his authentic self and that he is a genuinely good person. At this point he doesn't even have to make videos, he is set for life, but he still does because he enjoys it.

      @@professorigor4432 Felix has become somewhat of an icon in this generation. His personality manages to cover many facets of what it means to be man. I’m sure for everybody the reason for respecting him is different. He has captured influence in his life that many strive for. I personally think that his ability of balance is admirable, he remains consistent in doing what he enjoys. It feels as though he no longer lives in the influencer/RUclipsr atmosphere that often feels unnatural.

      Good news about Jesus Christ! When you first come to him, He completely erases/ forgives your past! You will not be punished for anything bad that you’ve done! Here’s how!
      (2 Corinthians 5:17)- “If anyone is in Christ, He is a new creation: The old has gone, and the new has come!
      (Explanation of the Bible verse above):
      Whenever a person decides to turn their lives to God (and start living by the Bible), they will NOT be punished or penalized for any of their past sins before coming to God. Yes, a clean slate! Or A clean record!
      This is what Christians mean when they say they’ve been “reborn” or “born again.” (To have their past erased completely and forgiven!)- a chance at redemption to start their lives fresh.
      (So for example), if a prison inmate/ criminal decides to confess to his wrong doings, and ask Jesus Christ for forgiveness, Jesus is more than generous enough to forgive him and erase his past completely and give that man a fresh start at life! Yes, A chance at redemption to turn his life around and do the right things this time around.
      This is what Christians call a “repentance.”
      “A True Repentance”, (in a biblical sense), is when a person feels guilty, or remorseful or sorry for what they did in their past, so they confess and ask God for forgiveness, and then follow through with turning away from those things which they are sorry for. It’s a complete life turn around. Basically the act of becoming a better person!
      (Acts 3:19)- “Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away.”
      (Proverbs 28:13)- “Whoever conceals his sins will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.

    I also recently discovered Camus and read his works. I gotta say, The Stranger has a really really great concept and perspective which is Absurdism. Camus also has another very famous book called The Myth of Sisyphus which is explaining about absurdism. I'm still reading it, it's great but I suggest you have a clear mind when you read it and be open with the contents in the book because it explains a lot of hardcore stuff. If you're new to philosophy, I wouldn't suggest you to read Camus' works since the concepts he explores are pretty deep, and sometimes, maybe it's better off not knowing something. Once you learn something, you cannot unlearn it. If you really insist on reading Camus' works, just keep this in mind, 'One must not become a monster himself when he is fighting one,'.
