You didn’t have to call me out like that
I think this has everything to do with the “Kenya-led intervention” US imperialists are trying to create in Hati
You’re welcome!
So if you didn’t care about having to wait for the video to buffer on every scroll, it becomes an easier problem. I kind of think that defeats the purpose of a tiktok-style interface though.
I agree that you wouldn’t necessarily need to build a new algorithm, but like I said, it’s part of the smooth scrolling magic
I’m a dev but not very good at mobile.
I can promise you that a lot of engineering work went into making the tiktok scrolling experience so smooth. Part of the trick is having a good enough algorithm that the user wants to watch the majority of served videos.
Another huge part of it is having lightning fast content distribution and aggressive “prefetching” of the next videos in the feed.
I don’t want to discourage you but I also don’t want you to be caught off guard by the difficulty. Do you want to make this bad enough to give it your nights and weekends for a year?

Rail is fundamentally superior to roads + cars at an engineering level.
All at the same time:
Rail has a smaller footprint
Rail moves multiple times more people or cargo per hour
Rail has multiple times more fuel efficiency
The fact that USA’s policy has been designed to favor cars only makes them more ‘practical’ than rail if you consider political constraints more binding than physics constraints.
I’ll grant that trucks have tighter turning radii and maximum operating grade. If we truly only used them when those characteristics are needed THAT would be ‘practical’
There are actually anti-greenhouse gasses like SO₂ (of acid rain fame(!))

“useful and convenient”…
How about deadly, destructive, and isolating?
Or we could just ignore the corrupt alliance of industry colluding to eliminate other transportation options and wax poetic about the Free Market and Rugged Individualism, right?
Fuck cars and fuck Uber but this sounds like a reaction to Lyft being integrated in the (excellent) Transit app
Pretty weak response. What would a good comeback have been?
