Dare to Exceed Expectations | Joanna Fava | TEDxUND Video

As a senior in high school, Joanna’s history teacher told her she’d never graduate college. Her parents did not go to the school and complain or write the teacher a nasty letter (as she had hoped). Instead, they offered her a challenge: “You can either prove her right or you can prove her wrong.” Years later, she would graduate from the University of Notre Dame and go on to work in prisons in NY, NJ, and CT providing psychological services to inmates before entering private practice in 2012. She now provides specialized treatments to individuals in the NYC area who are struggling with anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, personality disorders, and suicidal urges, and helps them create a life truly worth living. Her talk will draw upon her personal experiences and the lives of her patients to offer steps to defeat anxiety and doubt and to tap into the resilience necessary to exceed expectations.

About the Site 🌐

This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥

Origins of the Idea 🌱

The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠

Challenges Faced 🤔

Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.

Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍

Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️

The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.

About YouTube 📺

YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. 🌟

Content and Users 🎵

Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.

While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.

Monetization and Impact 🤑

YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.

As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. 📈
