You can actually share any channel!

It is a very hidden feature though. You have to link your kids account to yours, and then in the Youtube mobile app (not on the web), you can click the three dots button and then share > "with kids"

So that way you can build up a whitelist of channels that they can see in the YT kids account.

True, though pg was talking to college students here, who are (presumably) mostly focused on classes, and have a stable living situation for 2-4 years until they graduate. That's why he says at the beginning that it's not a good idea to start a _startup_ in college (which will take over your whole life)

If you're 100% focused on your startup and trying to make a living, then it's a different story, I agree.

Paul Graham gave a talk to college students that covered this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ii1jcLg-eIQ

In short: build things you are interested in with people who are also interested in those things. Don't call it a startup at first; just make projects.

Foods that decrease inflammation _probably_ help with arthritis; processed foods _generally_ increase inflammation, which is probably why you feel better not eating them.

For more than just anecdotes you can go to the data/studies; pubmed.gov is a great resource for finding studies: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=arthritis+diet

There is also nutritionfacts, which takes a science and clinical study based approach to look at how diet plays a role in a whole host of diseases and conditions: https://nutritionfacts.org/?s=arthritis

* nutritionfacts and Dr. Greger do have several vocal opponents however, so I encourage you to read the studies themselves and come to your own conclusions

This is my exact setup and it's great. Several pros:

- Relatively cheap since the a6000 is an older camera

- The a6000 doesn't have the 30 minute hdmi limit that some other cameras have (this can be fixed with gphoto, but you have to redo it every time you connect)

- When you're ready you can buy more lights, and then eventually a nicer lens if you want

I have a job at Google now

While I was looking for a job I feel like I had a good chance at several types of companies; both startups and FAANGs viewed my independent time as a positive.

I was an employee, then did my own thing for 6 years, then recently went and got a job again.

I felt no push-back at all for doing my own thing; in fact, I think it was a positive for most people.

If it was only 6 months instead of 6 years then maybe that would have made a difference (?), but generally I've found that people saw it as a positive sign that I was able to be self directed, work in ambiguous circumstances, etc.

Also as pointed out elsewhere here, the ease of getting a job is often a lot more about your network and who you know rather than your exact experience.

Good luck!
