Great video! This references the fantastic book Flatland, which helps explain dimensionality in really easy to understand way, and helped me get my head around what a 4th or n level dimension is (and why we it’s so unintuitive for us 3-dimensional beings)
Is that book okay for a 10yo girl?
She might find the film [1] more digestible. I enjoyed it a lot. But obviously if you're specifically after a book that doesn't help.

yes? it's got sexist and classist elements and satirizes victorian culture.
i'd encourage reading it ahead of gifting (and i'd encourage grabbing it from archive.org or something, since it's 141 years old) because not all 10 yearolds are going to receive it the same way

I kind of thought this video was going to be about Flatland the book but it was even better. This is a fantastic and easily digestible explanation of ray tracing.

Looks like yt-dlp just got nerfed again. Google: We can download all your stuff but you can't download ours....

Interesting quote! Turns out that it is from Frank Wilhoit[0] the composer, not Francis M. Wilhoit[1] the political scientist. How odd!

yt-dlp works fine for me. make sure you've updated. they now list the js that is used for solving for youtube downloads as an external dependency, so you might need to install that too. look at yt-dlp github, look for yt-dlp-es
It's your IP address, you're leeching too much without using the prescribed player. After some time it'll start working again. I bet if you go to the web site it will ask you to log in to prove you're not a bot, if you're not logged in already.
Works fine here.
