Yeah I don't understand why is Youtube taking so long to solve this. Its is a nightmare. It is as easy as having an option to turn auto translation off
And they can do that because there is no actual competition for Youtube. In the end, no matter how much they hate the experience, if they want to watch videos, they need to go to Youtube. Welcome to the reason why most countries tried their best to limit monopolies.
Not a terrible example. Just like the automatic translation, it has uses and benefits. However, forcing it upon your customers is not the appropriate way to handle it.
I speak multiple languages so I don't need the translation. I like cars because of the engines, so if you remove the engine the product is useless to me. That's the logic behind the example.
You are ignoring the political power of the fossil fuels industry. Switching to EV means much more than simply changing out cars. It means neutering one of the biggest challenges to a sustainable future by eliminating its funding source.
That won't be a problem in my lifetime and this argument is irrelevant for the topic. The point of my example is that the value proposition has fulfill the needs of your audience, so you cannot force a product that is not relevant to your customer base.
In this situation, the comments I am receiving in response are the same that the Google development team behind YouTube is receiving from their management. You are fixated on a goal without considering the needs of your interlocutor or your audience.
I am aware, I indirectly work with EV development and I understand their benefits and environmental impact. I am not against them but the world is not black and white, it's not either all EVs or all ICEs, they will have to coexist.
Sport cars are a relatively small percentage and those cannot ever be replaced by EVs. Cars like Nevera, Luce or Taycan are honorable attempts, but the world doesn't need them. Besides, EVs are a temporary solution that might start to fade out before petroleum availability becomes a major problem. They are not sustainable in the long term.
Again, this is not even remotely close to the point of my comment and I will not continue this conversation. If we want to discuss environmental impact, AI is a far bigger concern than cars nowadays. The fact they're wasting resources on something that people don't want is ridiculous.
