For #content creators, YouTube has two huge advantages as a platform that I think deserve articulation once (so here goes my attempt):
Firstly, if you think about it, there is virtually no other platform out there that offers users more generous free storage space, in the cloud, than YouTube.
YouTube doesn't let users see how much storage space they're taking up in whatever cloud backs the service. But if you were to upload (say) 100 vids in 4K... Even after compression, it's a LOT!
What this means - for creators - is an unusually good deal. You pay zilch. And in return you get a pretty much unlimited reservoir to put your data into (the caveat: the content here has to be in the form of video).
The second major advantage - and one which relatively few users really tap into - is the fact that YouTube isn't just a video hosting platform (like, say, Vimeo), but a social network built on top of a video hosting platform
There's enormous scope to interact with high profile brands so long as your own profile is credible. That's all! @threadreaderapp unroll please

One note / thought on the tragic death of an Irish peacekeeper in #Lebanon last night - I've met a number of Irish soldiers serving with UNTSO, UNIFIL and other UN missions in Israel over years, including at events hosted by @EmbassyTLV.
Unfortunately nuance is in short supply in this part of the world and many Israelis view the UN as a whole - all of its missions and all of its institutions, including those whose mandate is to benefit the whole planet - as an enemy org.
The peacekeepers I met (including one, Rt. Gen. Eamonn Caulfield, who kindly gave me wife and I a tour of Government House) all seemed like commited soldiers whose only desire was to preserve the fragile peace in this region, esp. along Israel's volatile border with Lebanon

For fellow drinkers of #coldbrew #coffee: here are 2 v important charts from a food science journal showing how efficiently #caffeine is extracted. As I learned early on, it's deceptively easy to consume an unpleasant amount of #caffeine using this brewing method.
1. Caffeine concentration begins approaching steady state after about 400 minutes (6 2/3 hours). If you think that a 7 hour counter steep will avoid most of the caffeine ... this is wrong. You've extracted almost all of it at this point.
2. While cold water extracts caffeine less efficiently than hot brew methods, this is more than compensated for in cold brew by the much longer time the grinds are in contact with the water.

I usually try to drown out the debate around #antisemitism as it tends to be rather bleak but ... I'm getting the distinct feeling that things are approaching a very sharp fork in the road in the US with the Trump dinner with Ye + Fuentes
It looks like the collective might of @ADL and Trump's Jewish supporters (notably: @DavidM_Friedman isn't going to eke out any kind of mea culpa from the former President.
The precedent that's about to be set is that it's okay - in American society - for leaders to openly socialise with and support open anti-Semites. Not people that are vociferously anti-Israel and *arguably* anti-Semites but .. the "sky is blue" variant of them.

1 - The IHRA (@TheIHRA) Working Definition of #Antisemitism is an essential imperfection (in the sense that adequately defining racial hatred is near impossible). It is being cleverly attacked at the moment by opportunists seizing upon a flabbergasting decision by a UN official
2 - to urge suspension of its use. Of the eleven suggest manifestations, one whose importance I was reminded of last night was that comparisons between the actions of Israel and Nazi Germany are (prima facie) to be considered ... well .. "manifestations" (per the name)
3 - see: some of the gross comparisons included here: bit.ly/3zRjqil. According to several Irish politicians, Israel is carrying out "pogroms", "ethnic cleansing," and programs intended to suppress the less "favored race."

An important piece by @alexbkane. A problem not dealt with, though is that - in the Israeli context - so much of the population are standing reservists. (No-one rationale should argue that that grants legitimacy to targeting them in the ongoing lone wolf attacks)
Debating whether Palestinian militant attacks on IDF personnel qualify as "terrorism" doesn't grant an *iota* of legitimacy or support to such attacks. But it does question whether that's the right word to reflect the situation we find ourselves in.
It also reflects, more openly, a reality that many in #Israel would prefer to not acknowledge: that we are engaged in an ongoing state of warfare with the Palestinian population. Asymmetrical warfare, perhaps, but this is still a grisly, ugly armed conflict.

My impression of the various epochs of air transport.

1914 (first scheduled air service) through to the advent of the low cost era (@Ryanair came on the scene in '84 but wasn't the first). Only the wealthy can afford to fly. But if you can afford it, it's a luxury experience.
1980s to the Covid crunch: air transport becomes a two-track system. Legacy carriers continue to provide a less luxurious but still pretty decent service (even to economy flyers). The rest of us make do with flying being okay but not totally miserable.
Covid crunch to the present: the bifurcation between flying in comfort (for the wealthy) and flying in lesser comfort (for the rest of us) is starting to look very damn stark. The class inequalities - as judged by the literal ticket classes - is starting to look pretty stark.
