Agree, watching videos accelerates learning of swimming, skating or playing of golf; taking videos to grab programming stuff? Maybe, when you jog or you loose sleep, you can use couple of those courses.
Because nothing is perfect, not the project, not part of the project. Each time you make any tiny piece a little bit better, you spend a little bit more time, you slide behind.
When you accept this fact, sometimes projects get done on schedule
OVH puts a ban on business from mainland China. It`s kind of weird. You maybe hate those harassment, and you want to shame mainland Chinese(because almost all other countries, even Hong Kong SAR and Taiwan are accepted). But a) this is business, you should not be that emotional, there are good people in China too. Doing business in this way may only humiliate yourselves. b) you can not just ignore China market, it`s a market no company should overlook.
No offence, fighting spam in that way is either an IQ problem or an EQ problem. Banning mainland China business completely for couple of years to clear blacklists? Brilliant. Actually you can buy any servers from EC2, linode, DO freely from China anytime. How can they deal with this issue?
When human beings are extremely frightened, they may faint,blind or die, even there's no any physically contact. It looks psychological problem can be a physical problem temporarily or permanently.
The thing that I remind myself is that you can receive a phone call and get bad news. This will put your body into shock, a physical response such as low blood pressure or high heart rate. Not everything needs a physical impact to have a physical response.
How hard would it be to figure out if 'the phone call' could exist? The call that, upon hearing of it you drop dead or become insane. Sort of a real-world SnowCrash. After all, it's not too much of a stretch to imagine that someone already weakened would get a heart attack as a result of the effect you describe.
