@mattwilcox I can accept that, & apologize for assuming otherwise.
I genuinely agree with everything you've said, here!
You're absolutely right about the merits of this video & thorough study itself, & I certainly hadn't meant to suggest I believed otherwise.
>"A summary & an education are different"
Precisely! A summary (tl:dw) is *not* meant to replace watching the video (it never could!), but to ADD something: your personal take-aways!
TL:DW is an accessibility aid, not a substitute.

@gudenau Absolutely will do!
I won't be able to until after work today, tho.

>>"Interpreting that as a “request” involves adding in as much context on your part as interpreting my comment as a rebuke."
1st half: Genuinely, what purpose does a question mark serve if not to indicate a request?
2nd half: You got me there! I absolutely agree that, had I given your words the same benefit-of-the-doubt I'd applied to the "TL;DW?", your statement *could* have been intended as a completely earnest suggestion without even a HINT of disdain or rebuke.
Were they?
@mattwilcox That's an oddly sharp rebuke to level at a stranger who asked someone else for help.
What made their request so objectionable, to you?
@gudenau @TechConnectify TL:DW?
(I do plan to watch it, but would love to hear what parts stood out most to you.)
@zackwhittaker That's g'dam poetry.️
