After finding that link, I realize that you are probably just mad that people are making probably bogus fair use claims, but it comes across as, "Never, ever, ever make use that goes under fair use: only original work is creative", which is a view that few/.ers can tolerate.
I'm not mad about the about the bogus fair use claims. I do believe that the safest course through the copyright land mines of YouTube is original material. If you do ALL THE WORK (that seems to be a big problem for some people) and don't borrow from anyone else's videos, your videos will be original. The content may be in dispute but the originality will not.
When it comes to YouTube videos, it should be quite simple: don't download other videos, splice them into your own video, and then whine when you get dinged by the copyright owner. If you do your own video using no one's video, the originality isn't in doubt. The content might be in dispute but that's not a copyright infringement.
Everyone was just too willing to accept the idea that the existing companies involved in blood testing are crooks (Spoiler alert: they are) [...]
My third-grade teacher recommended her child doctor to my mother, who took me to see him for various childhood aliments. Each visit ended with the doctor shoving his finger up my fat ass and requesting a blood test from the lab. Turned out he had a financial arrangement with the lab. He retired to Florida in a hurry before the police shut down the lab and the DA office made an announcement to the press.
My CRT TV that I paid $200 for in 2005 is still working fine. May work well for another 20+ years. No reason to toss it into the junk box in the back of the closet.

Get outta your basement and your cubicle and meet real people.
Which is it? Basement and cubicle are mutually exclusive. You can have one or the other, but not both.
You don't think Indians are real people? How racist.

San Jose's only applies to apartments built before 1978 IIRC (I think there is a separate one for mobile home parks).
I did not know that. My current apartment complex was built in 1968, looked like a 1960's housing project when I moved in 10+ years ago (a walk through could reveal 20 different pot smells from roach spray to expensive shit), and new rentals are priced at the same rate of the new apartment complex opened down the street.
Rent control = artificially deflating the value of a property by government at the cost of the business owner
Rent control didn't stop three corporations in as many years to buy the apartment complex I lived in for over a decade, repaint the exterior walls in a different color scheme and redo the landscaping, and charge "luxury" rental rates. The third corporation is actually renovating the apartments to justify the "luxury" rental rates. Rent control in San Jose prevents them for raising the rent more than 8% each year, so no doubling or tripling of the rents during a hot real estate market. For three years after the Great Recession, there was no rent increases at all.
The original Atari filed for bankruptcy in the 1980's. The IP floated around the industry for years until Infogrames bought Hasbro Interactive, moved their San Jose headquarters (previously known as Accolade) to Sunnyvale, and renamed the company to Atari. The name didn't help them survive the dot com bust. Eventually, after selling off studios that they paid two to four times actual value for pennies on the dollar, and exploiting every legacy property that they had on the books, the "new" Atari filed for bankruptcy in 2013.
I worked there for six years, starting off at Accolade in 1997 and leaving Atari in 2004. Three years as a tester, three years as a lead tester. Fun times. But I saw the writing on the wall when I became a lead tester, went back to school to learn computer programming, and got into IT support work for the rest of my career.
I had no problem upgrading to Windows 10 on my gaming PC. Then again, my gaming PC was built with Windows Vista-certified components and has beefier specs than the recommended minimum for Windows 7/8/10. As for the few hardware issues I had encountered, all I had to do was manually install the Vista driver.

California clearly has a very unhealthy level of illicit political influence in the federal government.
It's 54 electoral votes for representing 1/10th of the US population. That's the only number that matters in politics.
Seems like a contradiction to me.

More likely it's the fact that Silicon Valley is a liberal/SJW stronghold, where investors will happily throw money at any company with a female CEO.
As we say in California, what are smoking and where can I get some?

I'd love to see your resume. You seem to have worked at a lot of high profile places. Didn't you say Google turned you down once?
I've done contract work for Accolade/Infogrames/Atari, Cisco, eBay, Fujitus, Google, Intuit, and Sony, among many others.

And Infogrames bought Hasbro Interactive in the run up to the dot com bust. AFAIK, still the same company after for bankruptcy in 2013.
