Olivia's delivery has improved lot! It seems that she has seen our feedback, where many people didn't like her intonation which made every statement sound like a question, and worked on it! Kudos
She still starts too high and then ends her sentences in a low creaky tone. But she's definitely improved since i first heard her. I couldn't even watch the video back then.
jay fawn Actually no...not entirely...it depends on where you live. Here's the page from Wikipedia: Prawn is a common name for small aquatic crustaceans with an exoskeleton and ten legs (i.e. a member of the order decapoda), some of which can be eaten. *The term "prawn" is used particularly in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Commonwealth nations (former British colonies such as South Africa, India, Australia, New Zealand, ect.), for large swimming crustaceans or shrimp, especially those with commercial significance in the fishing industry.* Shrimp that fall in this category often belong to the suborder Dendrobranchiata. In North America, the term is used less frequently, typically for freshwater shrimp. *The terms shrimp and prawn themselves lack scientific standing.* Over the years, the way shrimp and prawn are used has changed, and nowadays the terms are almost interchangeable. *In the United Kingdom, prawn is more common on menus than shrimp, while the opposite is the case in the United States.* The term prawn also loosely describes any large shrimp, especially those at 15 (or fewer) to the pound (such as king prawns or jumbo shrimp). The terms shrimp and prawn are common names, not scientific names. They are vernacular or colloquial terms which lack the formal definition of scientific terms. They are not taxa, but are terms of convenience with little circumscriptional significance. There is no reason to avoid using the terms shrimp or prawn when convenient, but it is important not to confuse them with the names or relationships of actual taxa. According to the crustacean taxonomist Tin-Yam Chan, "The terms shrimp and prawn have no definite reference to any known taxonomic groups. Although the term shrimp is sometimes applied to smaller species, while prawn is more often used for larger forms, there is no clear distinction between both terms and their usage is often confused or even reverse in different countries or regions." Writing in 1980, L. B. Holthuis noted that the terms prawn and shrimp were used inconsistently "even within a single region", generalising that larger species fished commercially were generally called shrimps in the United States, and prawns in other English-speaking countries, although not without exceptions. A lot of confusion surrounds the scope of the term shrimp. Part of the confusion originates with the association of smallness. That creates problems with shrimp-like species that are not small. *The expression "jumbo shrimp" can be viewed as an oxymoron, a problem that doesn't exist with the commercial designation "jumbo prawns".* The term shrimp originated around the 14th century with the Middle English shrimpe, akin to the Middle Low German schrempen, and meaning to contract or wrinkle; and the Old Norse skorpna, meaning to shrivel up. It is not clear where the term prawn originated, but early forms of the word surfaced in England in the early 15th century as prayne, praine and prane. According to the linguist Anatoly Liberman *it is unclear how shrimp, in English, came to be associated with small.* "No Germanic language associates the shrimp with its size... The same holds for Romance... it remains unclear in what circumstances the name was applied to the crustacean." *Taxonomic studies in Europe on shrimp and prawns were shaped by the common shrimp and the common prawn, both found in huge numbers along the European coastlines.* The common shrimp, Crangon crangon was categorised in 1758 by Carl Linnaeus, and the common prawn was categorised in 1777 by Thomas Pennant. The common shrimp is a small burrowing species aligned with the notion of a shrimp as being something small, whereas the common prawn is much larger. *The terms true shrimp or true prawn are sometimes used to mean what a particular person thinks is a shrimp or prawn.* This varies with the person using the terms. But such terms are not normally used in the scientific literature, _because the terms shrimp and prawn themselves lack scientific standing. Over the years the way shrimp and prawn are used has changed, and nowadays the terms are almost interchangeable._ Although *from time to time some biologists declare that certain common names should be confined to specific taxa, the popular use of these names seems to continue unchanged.*
Hello people, just thought I'd drop in this little tip that I picked up with regards to finding where your file was saved to in any application. Go back into said application and choose 'Save As'. It'll then show you where it saved the file. Hope that helps someone.
This is attributed to the fact that applications keep the InitialDirectory of SaveFileDialog(s) in memory for convenience during runtime. If you're making 5 word documents right now, they're probably all on the same topic as the first one, or similar to, so they would all go to the directory or the parent directory of wherever you saved the first file. If you close the application, unless the developer is actively looking to solve this problem, you are unlikely to have the SaveFileDialog open the directory you last saved a file in as the InitialDirectory. It's usually C:\Documents.
Virus Detected No dude that was like 30 years ago. Google "sheep artificial womb" and you'll see what I mean. Like I said to others though, heads up for creepy photos that might haunt your dreams
So I've known about how search engines work for a while now, but even with web crawling and indexing, it seems like an index of *the entire internet* would be massive in its own right, so even being able to search *that* condensed database and produced ordered results within a fraction of a second still blows my mind!
Scishow , I have questions for you! Please talk about Orchids and their growing environments , and another related question to this - Does orchids really grow well in coal , charcoal and any other solid carbon compound material such as wood (on a tree -bark) ? Thats all I have to say . Thank for you understanding for this and I love ALL your videos - It just make us all smarter , educated and somehow inspired. THANK YOU Scishow !
The angle of the explanation is surprisingly incorrect. The algorithm is extremely important for getting relevant results, but not the reason why the web searches are so fast. The results you get were already cached in memory on the servers and that's why they're retrieved instantaneously. Because so many people use their service, most of the things you might search for are already pre-loaded because of previous searches and search engines might even prepare buckets of things to respond with whatever you might look for, just in case. You might think this would be insane, but remember that they only need to cache the first few pages of results, not all the results relevant to that search query. So it's actually quite efficient memory wise too. If the user doesn't go beyond the first few pages, it spares the server from making additional disk queries to get more data than minimally needed. Those search-index algorithms that made Google so famous work in the background to refresh the results for each of these buckets (but they do so relatively slowly by comparison to the time it takes the server to provide you with the pre-determined answer for your question). On the other hand, when a single user searches for something specific, they get from memory whatever was cached no matter how old that cache is. This is not part of the indexing algorithm, it's just a very basic way to setup the web server. Don't get me wrong, the algorithm is very important because it allows Google to maintain a healthy index and work with large volumes of data. Without it, the speed at which they refreshed the results "buckets" would decrease over time and they obviously don't have that problem. This is also why your local computer is generally slower, a single user feeds the search index so it will be ill prepared for that occasional search.
You know, the SciShow community's response to Olivia is really ridiculous. Every video she's in gets disliked thousands of times more than Michael or Hank or any of the sister channels' hosts, but she does a great job. The superficial hate she gets over her occasional upward inflection just feels totally unwarranted.
Solution: Simply let it go. Then down vote and down play every negative comment you see. I've been down voting every one I can find for months. There are lots of mental health patients in YT comments. Some with ridiculous prejudices, most people here are too stupid to self diagnose their issues and bias. Unfortunately most people here are not bright enough understand that YT content comes directly from real content creators. There is no buffer. I guarantee Olivia reads most of these comments as do most content creators. Every single human alive takes pride in what they work hard to create, or are a part of creating. Anyone that claims otherwise is not being honest. Negativity affects everyone. I imagine Olivia has a lot of strength if character, and there is a lot more to her than reading a teleprompter. Hopefully people will learn how to show manors and respect online. I believe individuals are all truely defined by the person they choose to be when they feel they have anonymity without the social pressure to conform to expectations.
Listen, I love Olivia, and she has improved a great deal from when she started. But let's be honest, she has a vocal style that is a little harder to listen to, she has movement tics with her hands that are distracting when you are actually watching the video, and personally, I couldn't stop looking at her nose ring and thinking how uncomfortable it made me during this video (and many other videos). Not a big deal, I'm not going to waste my time giving thumbs down for such trivial things, or posting nasty comments, but at the same time, Michael and Hank are still more polished than she is. That's the reality. And it appears, on average, that a lot of other people think so too, even if they react a little immaturely to it.
It seems like you haven't been here for very long, there is nothing new about SciShow community's responses to new hosts. When Michael started hosting, he got a lot of hate as well, so it is natural that Olivia is getting the same treatment. Anyways, her recent videos have been getting less hate and in a year or so people will be used to her hosting videos just like Michael. Change takes time it doesn't happen overnight (especially in youtube comment section ).
+bjr1822 -- I'm glad you don't take the time to be an ass about it with downvotes or nasty comments but I don't feel the idea of "let's be honest, she has a vocal style that is a little harder to listen to" and "she has movement tics with her hands that are distracting", followed by comments on her septum piercing are entirely fair or non-critical. Many people appreciate that she goes slower, and even if speaking faster is a SciShow theme, over at SciShow psych that host goes JUST as slow and people LOVEEE her. SciShow Space goes much slower too and many speak at odd rhythms too, but no one minds them. There are other things I dislike at least a bit about Olivia's presentation and I struggle to truly "connect" to her at times, but there's at least ONE thing I dislike about each host. They all do at least one thing that's distracting or odd or even annoying. But that's called being a human. And certainly doesn't beckon anyone else's wrath. Still, I don't think the tone of "lets be honest, she DOES do this..." can be exempt from saying you don't waste your time with negativity. That feels like a personal opinion, and it isn't one that's exactly kind. The level of HATE that comes with Olivia though is ridiculous and - even if the criticisms you have for her were universally felt by all the other viewers who dislike her - that's still not nearly enough of a reason to for them to be so hateful. I'm glad you don't participate in such extremes, but I also don't feel your comments about her are exactly thoughtful or at all helpful to the atmosphere surrounding her. When you put Olivia's speech, presentation, and gestures against others, she is none too dissimilar to the girl at SS Space, SS Psych, and even Adrienne from CC and MF. They just all LOOK different. Adrienne gets DRILLED for using her hands so much, but people are still polite to her as a person. The other girls also have unique cadences and can gesticulate in ways that are unnatural, but they are loved. The hate for Olivia seems to be personal. Like an unconscious bias to dislike people who LOOK an DRESS like her, even if her behavior is comparable to others. Her style, piercings, hair, glasses - they seem to bring out the claws - not her presentation skills. Those seem secondary and just something people throw in in hopes she'll leave if they say she's not good at her job. New hosts are always disliked for a bit, but nothing has compared to longevity of the Olivia hate. And it's so uncalled for (been speaking generally, not to you specifically). Nerdfighters are largely a kind group of people and I can't believe that so few even pause to think, "Oh! Hey! Olivia might have FEELINGS! And might even having these 'tics and gestures' and 'unnatural phrasing' because she's so damn terrified that if she doesn't say something just right, she'll be crucified in the comments, or give them reason to fire her. ...always knowing in the back of her mind that if the dislike ratio stays this consistent for her, the company could even be forced to fire just bc people hate her, not bc she was unqualified." Maaaaybe if everybody lightened up, she'd get even BETTER, be more engaging and animated and natural. ....when she's no longer so dang scared and, likely, hurt.
Why are you people judging on a certain host. This channel is supposed to be talking about science, not random trash. I can see it from the like/dislike ratio
We're in the 21st century... A lot of people have gotten dumb over the years and easily side-tracked. I personally still focus on the actual topic of the video but many others or better yet... The Average people just tend to be irrelevant and post useless shit that contributes to nothing.
The presentation from the host matters a lot in a show; otherwise we can just read the facts off journals, Wikipedia, or better yet, actually attending university lectures... And giving likes/dislikes is the best way to provide useful feedback to the channel.
SanWH Of course it matters, and that's not me being sarcastic but it shouldn't be the sole reason as to why people are neglecting to focus on said topic and actually post relevant comments. You can even see irrelevant comments in for example, videos of gamers... Playing games. It happens everywhere unfortunately and Hosts doesn't have anything to do with it.
Information is the most important part of the presentation, not the god damn presenter. It's like whining about the presenter at a tech show because of some dude with a heavy accent, such as Hindu, Asian, German, Russian/Eastern Europe, etc. Be grateful she speaks English you morons. SMH ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
No she hasn't. You people are just a bunch of suck ups. I know Sci-Show is a very liberal, safe space for a lot of people, but she is still bad presenter with issues of hand moments, voice pitch and tone.
I'm not expecting a perfect way of presentation, I just like to be able to follow and understand the host and I was always able to and that's a good presentation in my opinion.
Answer is that huge indexed text, now probably over 100 petabytes, is probably broken down into thousands of parallel databases each with it's own dedicated supercomputer. So when we search for exact quote, thousands of computers search their own small database, maybe few gigabytes in size, and one or more of them will find the exact quote in fraction of the second.
On July 2012 scientists at CERN announced that they had found a new particle, expected to be the elusive and important Higgs boson. It was one of the biggest scientific moments in recent physics and scientists all around the world were amazed by the incredible and promising findings. Many people saw that the slides used to present this major discovery were written in a funny Comic Sans font. Some of them complained for the bad aesthetics, maybe because that was the most important thing that their brain noticed and understood.
Ok SciShow we need more Olivia! I don't care how, give her her own channel or something. Chop chop... You introduced her to us so now take the responsibility!
It's STILL a miracle lol, I often find myself sitting in front of my monitor in amazement at the greatest library ever created and the sheer size of the whole thing. I wonder what my grandchildren be using?, we are so lucky to live in times like these, my mothers time she tells me life was colorless and being working class there was little or nothing to actually do. Being British working class she told me that on long nights of nothing {not even radio, only crystal sets and they were not common } when it became dark { only gas mantle lights then } even sitting in front of the fire and watching the flames dance had a calming effect on the whole family and made you ready for bed. We really cant even imagine that can we
Someone has to say it... The Mac. The Mac has it's files indexed, by default, all the time. It finds stuff super fast. The index is built incrementally, so it doesn't slow the computer down (unless the whole index needs to be rebuilt).
Google search operators are really awesome. If anyone know how to use it properly; then he can search google like a boss/professional/hacker. Thank You *SciShow* *Tutorial Heaven*
"And that’s why you’re watching your ten minutes tick away as your computer asks each and every song you own if it’s your term paper." So you didn't even provide proper arguments for the search and you still blame the computer.
Guys, this is why you should clean your registry often and defrag often. The computer's search works a similar, albeit simpler, way. It looks through the master file table (MFT) and registry (regedit.exe). On my computer, without cleaning registry of defragging for 2 weeks, it takes 8 minutes to search all files. Just after cleaning registry and defragging, the search takes just 15 seconds.
The reason why search engines are fast is because they cache results in memory. It's NOT because they index the results. That's important too, but not the main reason why you get your results instantly. For more complex queries, google does not cache the results, and thus, it takes more time to retrieve them.
Did you know if you take the 10 extra seconds to manually save and title you documents in specified folders then you'll only ever have to check a single folder at a time to find whatever it is your looking for. To help further, add subfolders to narrow your search even more and place your most relevant folders on your desktop screen for ease of access. I can still access every report, research compilation and resource guide I ever had to type up for my classes within a couple minutes manually without a search function. It's been 6 years since I was in college.
Hi there, SciShow! I would love for people to learn about the terrifying and sudden nature of cerebral aneurysms! I had one rupture at 19 and I think it would make for an interesting video topic!
This video reminds me of some maths I did a few days ago, and because we are nerds I will share. We wanted to know what kind of shape puts each website at a corner, so we did a (very fast) google search and found that google estimates there are 60 Trillion websites, as of April 2015. This means we need a 60 Trillion sided shape (60 000 000 000 000). It's called a hexacontawameagon. It's kinda awesome. That's a little boring though... how many dimensions would a cube have to exist in in order to have a corner for each website. Well, it turns out that log 2 of 60 000 000 000 000 is about 45.7. So we would need a 46 dimensional cube in order to have each website be it's very own corner of the internet. I hope you enjoyed this crazy trivia.
The fact that there's a reverse index is, like, the least interesting part of a search... The cool part is the fact that the index is so big it can only fit on a cluster, and every search is a concurrent, distributed query. Seriously - every time you run a search, for a small fraction of a second you *own an entire cluster.* That is the cool part.
yes. I woke up, and this was uploaded. Also, it helps if you look in documents and search from there, because at least my computer, doesn't safe a textfile in like images or songs.
Windows built in search as well as the one in file explorer are perfectly fine and even update results in real time. Whatever "Everything" is, is not needed.
Can there pretty please be an episode about how nightmares effect your body? Because I get strings of nightmares and sometimes night terrors and I never feel rested while in one of those strings. I would love to understand why I don't feel rested even though I'm getting to deep sleep (right?), and in what ways these strings can effect my body. I'm a bit of a hypochondriac, so knowing exactly what's going on chemically might help me calm down in the long run.
In windows toy can index any folder or the whole computer in control panel Open the Start menu. ...Type "indexing options" and select "Indexing Options" from the list of results. ...Click the "Modify" button. ...Expand the drives until you find the folder you want to add. ...Check the box for each folder you are adding. ...Click "OK" to save your changes.
I feel like at some point in this video it stopped being about informing the public of an interesting topic and became her venting about her computer eating her term paper 10 minutes before it was due. I feel your pain Olivia!! :)
If you want a good file search that doesn't take up too much of your HD space or CPU power/time, get Everything. it's honestly one of the first things I install on any computer I have to do IT work on.
Everything search is an program made in corporation with Google(I thought, not 100% sure) and indexes your computer within half a minute (I have 3 terabyte of data to index which takes 20 sec) and afterwards it searches your computer REALLY fast almost instantly
It's enabled on W10 by default if you have a SSD you don't notice any lag or downtime but with and old classic hdd it can hog its all spinning resources.
Step 1: start a new document Step 2: save new document Step 3: pay attention to where new document went Step 4: go to that folder and have 99.9% chance of finding lost document.
There's also the fact that the entirety of Google's search index is stored in RAM on Google servers (the higher-ranked sites indices are stored in multiple locations too), while your computer is digging through files on a SSD or, even worse, a spinning hard drive, both of which are significantly slower than RAM.
This is actually interesting. I like these random topics. Wish Olivia did SciShow Space tho.. I would love to listen to her talk about space related topics. Other than Hank..shes my favorite Host.
I can tell the host is improving in her ability to present information. At first her changing pitch was very distracting, but now its not difficult to listen to her. Good to see an improvement!
What I really want for a search engine in my computer is search based on descriptions like "that image with raged guy flipping a desk". It sometimes takes me up to an _hour_ to find relevant image just because I cannot search by image in my mind and I forgot the name of the actual file. Too bad we won't see such thing in the near or far future...
MilitantPeaceist the problem is being unable to focus at all due to visual and audio distractions. She is pretty and intelligent but I find my eyes going to her hands and head when watching her because they are moving so much and if I just listen rather than watch her intonation confuses me because she presents facts as though they are questions. People who hate her because she has a nose ring though- they need to screw off.
You do realise that your distractions are your fault, not hers ... right? It's not her fault you are easily distracted & it's not her fault you don't accept the quirks of nerds, on a nerd channel, for nerds.
MilitantPeaceist LOL being fairly needy myself and having pretty nerdy friends I can say with confidence that she in no way represents the quirks of all nerds. You not being bothered by her does not give you the authority to judge and demean all of the MANY people who can't get past her to absorb what she talks about. But if you feel high and mighty because you're not among the annoyed population then you've been misinformed about what makes one opinion more important that the opinion of someone else.
"You not being bothered by her does not give you the authority to judge and demean all of the MANY people who can't get past her to absorb what she talks about." Yes I can, you are an unimportant person, focusing on unimportant things because you are easily distracted & then blaming someone else for it. Grow up!
3:00 I remember an old app for windows (xp or 98) made by google, that created an index of your file so you can search in your own pc. then ms did themselves.
Very well, but this doesn't explain how google searches the internet for specific phrases so fast, as when we use the "" function. These will not be indexed.
She could of emphasized the fact that google basically makes a copy of the www (minus the images and video) and makes a 'local query' when upchucking info to the user. the indexing.. But she got it correct.
@1:50 It's good that none of those gears is engaged, since they're set up to lock one another... and the teeth are generally incompatible. (This is supposed to be an analogy for the inner workings of search engines, eh?)
Press Windows Key + W, then type 'index'. Open 'Indexing Options', click Modify, and checkmark your main drive (usually C:) This might take ages to finish, but will give quick search results in the future. So keep it overnight and rejoice that you'll be able to find any file that resides on you computer in the blink of an eye!
Use filters when searching for a specific file on your computer, lets say it is a document then you search for specifically a .pdf .docx .mpeg or whatever. Your computer would bypass a lot of stuff and would make searches a lot faster since there are a lot of other file types like .cab .dat .toc .cache and what not.
So why does Google fail to show ALL results when searching my gmail? (A search that works is very helpful, but I've had frustrating searches that failed, and I had to go find the email myself based on my guess of what date I got the email.)
Fo real though, if you have their example problem (you saved something, just don't know where) either save a new file or hit 'save as' in the program you were using and it will bring up the last folder you saved to.
Thats a good tip, but it doesn't always work. For instance, you may have closed the program before realizing you can't find it or even restarted your computer. But yes, if the program is still open that's probably the quickest way to find it.
Overall, I much prefer Windows to MacOS, but one thing I gotta give to Apple is that Spotlight is infinitely better than the built-in Windows search. I've spent a lot of time making sure my indexing options are set to be helpful, but that does not help the search function be helpful.
I remember back in the good old days, when Windows had an actual search program that could be used to tell your computer what kind of file to search for, and that you could use as a jump-off point to examine the results. These days, you have to be REALLY careful or your computer will re-search everything.
or when you save something and you forgot where it was, open the file again, write a litter in it or anything that can cause it to save, click save as, and it till take you to the last folder you saved too was, so you can go back to that folder and get the item you saved
The way the Google engine finds information is bound to an algorithm called LBAM and is surprisingly simple. It could be even more efficient, if the developers had not decided to stick with it once the first edition was up and running, and over time they decided rather pay for huge web farms than thinking it over. By no means, this algorithm is something special. It is one of the basics of Neural Networks and it's only "difference" to the BAM algorithm is, that it allows to slip through rather than energetically train the network to learn the exact result. As to my knowledge, LBAM is used only by Google, and by the Indian Government for searching fingerprints.
Olivia's delivery has improved lot! It seems that she has seen our feedback, where many people didn't like her intonation which made every statement sound like a question, and worked on it! Kudos
Yeah, I noticed the exact same thing. She improved a lot for the better! :)
yeah she doesn't do as much raising tone as before
she has been good since beginning
+
She still starts too high and then ends her sentences in a low creaky tone. But she's definitely improved since i first heard her. I couldn't even watch the video back then.
Finally. A video posted on time for Australians. Thanks Scishow!
Bhaumik Mhatre celebration....throw another shrimp on the barbie...
I believe you mean prawn, good sir.
John Paul Hansen shrimp is small , prawn is big
No one says shrimp here
jay fawn Actually no...not entirely...it depends on where you live. Here's the page from Wikipedia:

You're right, sorry :P
When are you guys gonna talk about that artificial womb scientists grew that baby sheep in? That sounds like some pretty boss tech.
Hotel July Have you seen the pictures? They're really creepy!
Sagrotan Please explain to me the bizarre reasoning behind your comment
Chapter Eleven Right? Sci Show should be on this, stop dropping the ball guys! Be careful though, like Some One said they've got pretty nasty pics
Virus Detected No dude that was like 30 years ago. Google "sheep artificial womb" and you'll see what I mean. Like I said to others though, heads up for creepy photos that might haunt your dreams
YES! I want to hear a more elaborate breakdown of this too!
I love uploads when I'm JUST FALLING ASLEEP damnit scishow why do you do this to me 😩
Jeremy Allen Turn your computer and phone off when you go to bed. Works like a charm.
ugh, I just spent hours of my life optimizing crap like this at work. Now I came home and get greeted with _this_?? Gee, thanks a lot.
So I've known about how search engines work for a while now, but even with web crawling and indexing, it seems like an index of *the entire internet* would be massive in its own right, so even being able to search *that* condensed database and produced ordered results within a fraction of a second still blows my mind!
Scishow , I have questions for you! Please talk about Orchids and their growing environments , and another related question to this - Does orchids really grow well in coal , charcoal and any other solid carbon compound material such as wood (on a tree -bark) ? Thats all I have to say . Thank for you understanding for this and I love ALL your videos - It just make us all smarter , educated and somehow inspired. THANK YOU Scishow !
The angle of the explanation is surprisingly incorrect. The algorithm is extremely important for getting relevant results, but not the reason why the web searches are so fast. The results you get were already cached in memory on the servers and that's why they're retrieved instantaneously. Because so many people use their service, most of the things you might search for are already pre-loaded because of previous searches and search engines might even prepare buckets of things to respond with whatever you might look for, just in case. You might think this would be insane, but remember that they only need to cache the first few pages of results, not all the results relevant to that search query. So it's actually quite efficient memory wise too. If the user doesn't go beyond the first few pages, it spares the server from making additional disk queries to get more data than minimally needed. Those search-index algorithms that made Google so famous work in the background to refresh the results for each of these buckets (but they do so relatively slowly by comparison to the time it takes the server to provide you with the pre-determined answer for your question). On the other hand, when a single user searches for something specific, they get from memory whatever was cached no matter how old that cache is. This is not part of the indexing algorithm, it's just a very basic way to setup the web server.
Don't get me wrong, the algorithm is very important because it allows Google to maintain a healthy index and work with large volumes of data. Without it, the speed at which they refreshed the results "buckets" would decrease over time and they obviously don't have that problem. This is also why your local computer is generally slower, a single user feeds the search index so it will be ill prepared for that occasional search.
You know, the SciShow community's response to Olivia is really ridiculous. Every video she's in gets disliked thousands of times more than Michael or Hank or any of the sister channels' hosts, but she does a great job. The superficial hate she gets over her occasional upward inflection just feels totally unwarranted.
Solution: Simply let it go. Then down vote and down play every negative comment you see.
I've been down voting every one I can find for months.
There are lots of mental health patients in YT comments. Some with ridiculous prejudices, most people here are too stupid to self diagnose their issues and bias.
Unfortunately most people here are not bright enough understand that YT content comes directly from real content creators. There is no buffer. I guarantee Olivia reads most of these comments as do most content creators. Every single human alive takes pride in what they work hard to create, or are a part of creating. Anyone that claims otherwise is not being honest. Negativity affects everyone. I imagine Olivia has a lot of strength if character, and there is a lot more to her than reading a teleprompter. Hopefully people will learn how to show manors and respect online.
I believe individuals are all truely defined by the person they choose to be when they feel they have anonymity without the social pressure to conform to expectations.
Listen, I love Olivia, and she has improved a great deal from when she started. But let's be honest, she has a vocal style that is a little harder to listen to, she has movement tics with her hands that are distracting when you are actually watching the video, and personally, I couldn't stop looking at her nose ring and thinking how uncomfortable it made me during this video (and many other videos). Not a big deal, I'm not going to waste my time giving thumbs down for such trivial things, or posting nasty comments, but at the same time, Michael and Hank are still more polished than she is. That's the reality. And it appears, on average, that a lot of other people think so too, even if they react a little immaturely to it.
It seems like you haven't been here for very long, there is nothing new about SciShow community's responses to new hosts.
When Michael started hosting, he got a lot of hate as well, so it is natural that Olivia is getting the same treatment.
Anyways, her recent videos have been getting less hate and in a year or so people will be used to her hosting videos just like Michael.
Change takes time it doesn't happen overnight (especially in youtube comment section ).
Nick Arehart agreed
+bjr1822 -- I'm glad you don't take the time to be an ass about it with downvotes or nasty comments but I don't feel the idea of "let's be honest, she has a vocal style that is a little harder to listen to" and "she has movement tics with her hands that are distracting", followed by comments on her septum piercing are entirely fair or non-critical. Many people appreciate that she goes slower, and even if speaking faster is a SciShow theme, over at SciShow psych that host goes JUST as slow and people LOVEEE her. SciShow Space goes much slower too and many speak at odd rhythms too, but no one minds them. There are other things I dislike at least a bit about Olivia's presentation and I struggle to truly "connect" to her at times, but there's at least ONE thing I dislike about each host. They all do at least one thing that's distracting or odd or even annoying. But that's called being a human. And certainly doesn't beckon anyone else's wrath. Still, I don't think the tone of "lets be honest, she DOES do this..." can be exempt from saying you don't waste your time with negativity. That feels like a personal opinion, and it isn't one that's exactly kind.
The level of HATE that comes with Olivia though is ridiculous and - even if the criticisms you have for her were universally felt by all the other viewers who dislike her - that's still not nearly enough of a reason to for them to be so hateful. I'm glad you don't participate in such extremes, but I also don't feel your comments about her are exactly thoughtful or at all helpful to the atmosphere surrounding her. When you put Olivia's speech, presentation, and gestures against others, she is none too dissimilar to the girl at SS Space, SS Psych, and even Adrienne from CC and MF. They just all LOOK different. Adrienne gets DRILLED for using her hands so much, but people are still polite to her as a person. The other girls also have unique cadences and can gesticulate in ways that are unnatural, but they are loved. The hate for Olivia seems to be personal. Like an unconscious bias to dislike people who LOOK an DRESS like her, even if her behavior is comparable to others. Her style, piercings, hair, glasses - they seem to bring out the claws - not her presentation skills. Those seem secondary and just something people throw in in hopes she'll leave if they say she's not good at her job.
New hosts are always disliked for a bit, but nothing has compared to longevity of the Olivia hate. And it's so uncalled for (been speaking generally, not to you specifically). Nerdfighters are largely a kind group of people and I can't believe that so few even pause to think, "Oh! Hey! Olivia might have FEELINGS! And might even having these 'tics and gestures' and 'unnatural phrasing' because she's so damn terrified that if she doesn't say something just right, she'll be crucified in the comments, or give them reason to fire her. ...always knowing in the back of her mind that if the dislike ratio stays this consistent for her, the company could even be forced to fire just bc people hate her, not bc she was unqualified." Maaaaybe if everybody lightened up, she'd get even BETTER, be more engaging and animated and natural. ....when she's no longer so dang scared and, likely, hurt.
Why are you people judging on a certain host. This channel is supposed to be talking about science, not random trash. I can see it from the like/dislike ratio
We're in the 21st century... A lot of people have gotten dumb over the years and easily side-tracked. I personally still focus on the actual topic of the video but many others or better yet... The Average people just tend to be irrelevant and post useless shit that contributes to nothing.
Bilal Iqbal projection... thy name is you
The presentation from the host matters a lot in a show; otherwise we can just read the facts off journals, Wikipedia, or better yet, actually attending university lectures... And giving likes/dislikes is the best way to provide useful feedback to the channel.
SanWH Of course it matters, and that's not me being sarcastic but it shouldn't be the sole reason as to why people are neglecting to focus on said topic and actually post relevant comments. You can even see irrelevant comments in for example, videos of gamers... Playing games. It happens everywhere unfortunately and Hosts doesn't have anything to do with it.
Information is the most important part of the presentation, not the god damn presenter. It's like whining about the presenter at a tech show because of some dude with a heavy accent, such as Hindu, Asian, German, Russian/Eastern Europe, etc. Be grateful she speaks English you morons. SMH
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Always liked her, still like her, do think her way of presentation has improved though. Keep up!
No she hasn't. You people are just a bunch of suck ups. I know Sci-Show is a very liberal, safe space for a lot of people, but she is still bad presenter with issues of hand moments, voice pitch and tone.
FallenShadowNinja then don't hate on us. We don't care about the annoying voice and appearance. We just care about the info.
I'm not expecting a perfect way of presentation, I just like to be able to follow and understand the host and I was always able to and that's a good presentation in my opinion.
ExSuPiO1 +
I couldn't stand her before, but her talent has risen to the level of tolerable.
Answer is that huge indexed text, now probably over 100 petabytes, is probably broken down into thousands of parallel databases each with it's own dedicated supercomputer. So when we search for exact quote, thousands of computers search their own small database, maybe few gigabytes in size, and one or more of them will find the exact quote in fraction of the second.
On July 2012 scientists at CERN announced that they had found a new particle, expected to be the elusive and important Higgs boson. It was one of the biggest scientific moments in recent physics and scientists all around the world were amazed by the incredible and promising findings. Many people saw that the slides used to present this major discovery were written in a funny Comic Sans font. Some of them complained for the bad aesthetics, maybe because that was the most important thing that their brain noticed and understood.
Ok SciShow we need more Olivia! I don't care how, give her her own channel or something. Chop chop... You introduced her to us so now take the responsibility!
It's STILL a miracle lol, I often find myself sitting in front of my monitor in amazement at the greatest library ever created and the sheer size of the whole thing. I wonder what my grandchildren be using?, we are so lucky to live in times like these, my mothers time she tells me life was colorless and being working class there was little or nothing to actually do. Being British working class she told me that on long nights of nothing {not even radio, only crystal sets and they were not common } when it became dark { only gas mantle lights then } even sitting in front of the fire and watching the flames dance had a calming effect on the whole family and made you ready for bed. We really cant even imagine that can we
Someone has to say it... The Mac. The Mac has it's files indexed, by default, all the time. It finds stuff super fast. The index is built incrementally, so it doesn't slow the computer down (unless the whole index needs to be rebuilt).
Thanks for uploading at the perfect time. Just done with my work.
I'm from India.
Google search operators are really awesome. If anyone know how to use it properly; then he can search google like a boss/professional/hacker. Thank You *SciShow*
*Tutorial Heaven*
"And that’s why you’re watching your ten minutes tick away as your computer asks
each and every song you own if it’s your term paper."
So you didn't even provide proper arguments for the search and you still blame the computer.
When looking for something on your computer, the only app you need is called Everything.
Guys, this is why you should clean your registry often and defrag often. The computer's search works a similar, albeit simpler, way. It looks through the master file table (MFT) and registry (regedit.exe). On my computer, without cleaning registry of defragging for 2 weeks, it takes 8 minutes to search all files. Just after cleaning registry and defragging, the search takes just 15 seconds.
The reason why search engines are fast is because they cache results in memory. It's NOT because they index the results. That's important too, but not the main reason why you get your results instantly. For more complex queries, google does not cache the results, and thus, it takes more time to retrieve them.
Did you know if you take the 10 extra seconds to manually save and title you documents in specified folders then you'll only ever have to check a single folder at a time to find whatever it is your looking for. To help further, add subfolders to narrow your search even more and place your most relevant folders on your desktop screen for ease of access. I can still access every report, research compilation and resource guide I ever had to type up for my classes within a couple minutes manually without a search function. It's been 6 years since I was in college.
best subject I've ever seen on scishow! Most interesting!
Come on! I find my files by name in a split second. Use a program that searches using indices like “Everything”.
Hi there, SciShow! I would love for people to learn about the terrifying and sudden nature of cerebral aneurysms! I had one rupture at 19 and I think it would make for an interesting video topic!
This video reminds me of some maths I did a few days ago, and because we are nerds I will share.
We wanted to know what kind of shape puts each website at a corner, so we did a (very fast) google search and found that google estimates there are 60 Trillion websites, as of April 2015. This means we need a 60 Trillion sided shape (60 000 000 000 000). It's called a hexacontawameagon. It's kinda awesome.
That's a little boring though... how many dimensions would a cube have to exist in in order to have a corner for each website. Well, it turns out that log 2 of 60 000 000 000 000 is about 45.7. So we would need a 46 dimensional cube in order to have each website be it's very own corner of the internet. I hope you enjoyed this crazy trivia.
Agent Ransack, excellent programme for searching a computer. It does it at least 5 times faster than the default search.
"Searching may be slower in non indexed locations"
Ooooooohhhhhhh
Just learnt about this yesterday watching Algorithms on Netflix! And more right now, lovely timing!
Could u imagine the horror people would go thru if the internet just one day stopped, they would think the dark ages are back..
The fact that there's a reverse index is, like, the least interesting part of a search... The cool part is the fact that the index is so big it can only fit on a cluster, and every search is a concurrent, distributed query.
Seriously - every time you run a search, for a small fraction of a second you *own an entire cluster.* That is the cool part.
how to find the paper: documents -> order by date -> pick your paper
yes. I woke up, and this was uploaded.
Also, it helps if you look in documents and search from there, because at least my computer, doesn't safe a textfile in like images or songs.
That's why you use the program "Everything" and not windows built in search. Its instant!
Windows built in search as well as the one in file explorer are perfectly fine and even update results in real time. Whatever "Everything" is, is not needed.
This a joke? - "Everything" installed - Instant search
Can there pretty please be an episode about how nightmares effect your body? Because I get strings of nightmares and sometimes night terrors and I never feel rested while in one of those strings. I would love to understand why I don't feel rested even though I'm getting to deep sleep (right?), and in what ways these strings can effect my body. I'm a bit of a hypochondriac, so knowing exactly what's going on chemically might help me calm down in the long run.
Anyone remember Metacrawler? Lycos? AOL keywords?
... actually typing in URLs?
Elliot Grey dont forget about the finest search engine, Ask Jeeves.
In windows toy can index any folder or the whole computer in control panel
Open the Start menu. ...Type "indexing options" and select "Indexing Options" from the list of results. ...Click the "Modify" button. ...Expand the drives until you find the folder you want to add. ...Check the box for each folder you are adding. ...Click "OK" to save your changes.
I feel like at some point in this video it stopped being about informing the public of an interesting topic and became her venting about her computer eating her term paper 10 minutes before it was due. I feel your pain Olivia!! :)
She's my favorite public science advocator. Up in the same tier of people such as Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and Carl Sagan.
i like SciShow! I could use this question in class because i ask A LOT of science questions and riddles!
This question kill me for a long time & finally I got the answer , thanks
Uploads at this time??? wow. science (or atleast one science video editor) never sleeps
"Searching a computer takes ages"... except if you're on a Mac and use the lightning fast Spotlight...
If you want a good file search that doesn't take up too much of your HD space or CPU power/time, get Everything. it's honestly one of the first things I install on any computer I have to do IT work on.
Everything search is an program made in corporation with Google(I thought, not 100% sure) and indexes your computer within half a minute (I have 3 terabyte of data to index which takes 20 sec) and afterwards it searches your computer REALLY fast almost instantly
Her videos should come with " This May Induce Seizure Warnings"
KIDS ARE RUNNING AROUND MY SCHOOL WITH LIGHTSABERS HELP
Those skeletons at 0:43 😂😂
It's enabled on W10 by default if you have a SSD you don't notice any lag or downtime but with and old classic hdd it can hog its all spinning resources.
Step 1: start a new document
Step 2: save new document
Step 3: pay attention to where new document went
Step 4: go to that folder and have 99.9% chance of finding lost document.
UA-cam needs a Love button.
Me: Google where is Michael Aranda?
Google: Hank Green took him out to the desert, at gunpoint, and made him dig his own grave.
I honestly don't understand the hate for her. I think she's fabulous with a really pleasant voice.
Now everyone's Googling how to index their computer for faster searching :-)
With my eyes, same as everyone else.
There's also the fact that the entirety of Google's search index is stored in RAM on Google servers (the higher-ranked sites indices are stored in multiple locations too), while your computer is digging through files on a SSD or, even worse, a spinning hard drive, both of which are significantly slower than RAM.
This is actually interesting. I like these random topics. Wish Olivia did SciShow Space tho.. I would love to listen to her talk about space related topics. Other than Hank..shes my favorite Host.
As a SQL Developer I approve this video :)
I can tell the host is improving in her ability to present information. At first her changing pitch was very distracting, but now its not difficult to listen to her. Good to see an improvement!
I GOT AN ADVERTISMENT FROM ICANN LOL
I remember when Hank asked this question on Twitter :D
She's as good a host as anyone else on SciShow.
What I really want for a search engine in my computer is search based on descriptions like "that image with raged guy flipping a desk". It sometimes takes me up to an _hour_ to find relevant image just because I cannot search by image in my mind and I forgot the name of the actual file. Too bad we won't see such thing in the near or far future...
Olivia haters have taught me something important - Unimportant people focus on unimportant things.
MilitantPeaceist the problem is being unable to focus at all due to visual and audio distractions. She is pretty and intelligent but I find my eyes going to her hands and head when watching her because they are moving so much and if I just listen rather than watch her intonation confuses me because she presents facts as though they are questions. People who hate her because she has a nose ring though- they need to screw off.
ie: the unimportant things.
You do realise that your distractions are your fault, not hers ... right?
It's not her fault you are easily distracted & it's not her fault you don't accept the quirks of nerds, on a nerd channel, for nerds.
MilitantPeaceist LOL being fairly needy myself and having pretty nerdy friends I can say with confidence that she in no way represents the quirks of all nerds. You not being bothered by her does not give you the authority to judge and demean all of the MANY people who can't get past her to absorb what she talks about. But if you feel high and mighty because you're not among the annoyed population then you've been misinformed about what makes one opinion more important that the opinion of someone else.
"You not being bothered by her does not give you the authority to judge and demean all of the MANY people who can't get past her to absorb what she talks about."
Yes I can, you are an unimportant person, focusing on unimportant things because you are easily distracted & then blaming someone else for it.
Grow up!
Use Everything, great solution for finding files on your system
3:00
I remember an old app for windows (xp or 98) made by google, that created an index of your file so you can search in your own pc. then ms did themselves.
Very well, but this doesn't explain how google searches the internet for specific phrases so fast, as when we use the "" function. These will not be indexed.
There is a neat program, called Everything. It's faster than your computer search engine
She could of emphasized the fact that google basically makes a copy of the www (minus the images and video) and makes a 'local query' when upchucking info to the user. the indexing.. But she got it correct.
because you did not please the machine spirit within your computer with the proper rituals and prayers of the Omnissiah.
I've always had this question!
But even with the index how does Google search the index so fast. I have implemented search algorithms and I am flabbergasted every time
my old Linux box can find files much faster than any of my windows boxes
4am central us time and this drops lol
1 am where I'm at.
10am here. The release time makes sense for me.
11.30 am here
Seven pm here.
@1:50 It's good that none of those gears is engaged, since they're set up to lock one another... and the teeth are generally incompatible. (This is supposed to be an analogy for the inner workings of search engines, eh?)
"some modern computers do [make index]"
GNU findutils exists at least since 1994. Apparently this is considered modern.
TIP. if you can't find a file: Open the program you use for that file and mouse-over "recent opened files". Most software do this.
Press Windows Key + W, then type 'index'. Open 'Indexing Options', click Modify, and checkmark your main drive (usually C:)
This might take ages to finish, but will give quick search results in the future. So keep it overnight and rejoice that you'll be able to find any file that resides on you computer in the blink of an eye!
Use filters when searching for a specific file on your computer, lets say it is a document then you search for specifically a .pdf .docx .mpeg or whatever. Your computer would bypass a lot of stuff and would make searches a lot faster since there are a lot of other file types like .cab .dat .toc .cache and what not.
lol @ the mic placement and head turning playing with the levels
Or....just make sure you first saved your copy somewhere you usually file it, like a "this is for school crap" folder
So why does Google fail to show ALL results when searching my gmail?
(A search that works is very helpful, but I've had frustrating searches that failed, and I had to go find the email myself based on my guess of what date I got the email.)
Fo real though, if you have their example problem (you saved something, just don't know where) either save a new file or hit 'save as' in the program you were using and it will bring up the last folder you saved to.
Thats a good tip, but it doesn't always work. For instance, you may have closed the program before realizing you can't find it or even restarted your computer. But yes, if the program is still open that's probably the quickest way to find it.
I haven't had a program change its save folder after closing or computer restart. At least, not any program I have used for school work.
Overall, I much prefer Windows to MacOS, but one thing I gotta give to Apple is that Spotlight is infinitely better than the built-in Windows search. I've spent a lot of time making sure my indexing options are set to be helpful, but that does not help the search function be helpful.
And that is why you use Everything Search and disable normal Windows Search indexing.
Just had my computer index both of my harddrive thanks :D
I remember back in the good old days, when Windows had an actual search program that could be used to tell your computer what kind of file to search for, and that you could use as a jump-off point to examine the results.
These days, you have to be REALLY careful or your computer will re-search everything.
why are these videos so addicting to watch
knowledge is addictive just as much as crack
hey sci show team! :)
i wonder, what would happen if you drink a solution of atp and water. can the body make some use of it?
I was expecting an episode about the Google phishing incident
Storing File Indices on your home computer also takes up more space on your hard drive
or when you save something and you forgot where it was, open the file again, write a litter in it or anything that can cause it to save, click save as, and it till take you to the last folder you saved too was, so you can go back to that folder and get the item you saved
The way the Google engine finds information is bound to an algorithm called LBAM and is surprisingly simple. It could be even more efficient, if the developers had not decided to stick with it once the first edition was up and running, and over time they decided rather pay for huge web farms than thinking it over. By no means, this algorithm is something special. It is one of the basics of Neural Networks and it's only "difference" to the BAM algorithm is, that it allows to slip through rather than energetically train the network to learn the exact result.
As to my knowledge, LBAM is used only by Google, and by the Indian Government for searching fingerprints.
thanks guys for the video , try to make more videos about information technology and computer traffic and routing.
That's why I do term papers on a typewriter.
Olivia is awesome!!!!
The freaky thing about this is that i have a term paper due in 3 hours.
LPT: If you need to find where a program is saving a file, save-as to find its current save location.
