human: Why is chocolate generally deemed unhealthy?

assistant: Chocolate is often deemed unhealthy because it is associated with high sugar and fat content. However, it's important to note that not all chocolate is created equal, and the health effects can vary depending on the type and quantity consumed.

1. Added Sugar: Many commercially available chocolate products, such as candy bars and chocolate desserts, contain significant amounts of added sugar. High sugar intake can contribute to various health issues, including obesity, tooth decay, and an increased risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.

2. High Fat Content: Chocolate, particularly milk and white chocolate, can be high in saturated fat. Excessive intake of saturated fat can raise cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart disease. Dark chocolate, on the other hand, contains less saturated fat and may have some health benefits due to its higher cocoa content.

3. Calorie Density: Chocolate is calorie-dense, meaning it contains a relatively high number of calories in a small portion. Overconsumption of calorie-dense foods can contribute to weight gain and obesity if not consumed in moderation.

4. Other Ingredients: Some chocolate products may contain additional ingredients like artificial flavors, preservatives, and emulsifiers, which can have negative health effects for certain individuals or in large quantities.

However, it's important to note that not all chocolate is unhealthy. Dark chocolate, in particular, has been found to have potential health benefits when consumed in moderation. It contains higher amounts of cocoa solids, which are rich in antioxidants called flavonoids. These flavonoids may have positive effects on cardiovascular health, including improving blood flow and reducing inflammation.

To enjoy chocolate in a healthier way, consider the following:

1. Dark Chocolate: Opt for dark chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa (70% or higher) as it tends to contain less sugar and more beneficial compounds like flavonoids.

2. Moderation: Enjoy chocolate in moderation, as part of a balanced diet. A small portion can satisfy cravings without excessive calorie intake.

3. Quality and Ingredients: Choose high-quality chocolate with minimal added ingredients, avoiding those with excessive sugar, trans fats, or artificial additives.

4. Pairing with Healthy Foods: Pairing chocolate with fruits, nuts, or seeds can provide additional nutrients and create a more balanced snack or dessert.

5. Mindful Eating: Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite, enjoying the taste, and being aware of portion sizes.

Ultimately, the perception of chocolate as unhealthy stems from the prevalence of highly processed, sugar-laden chocolate products. Choosing higher-quality chocolate, paying attention to portion sizes, and incorporating it as part of a balanced diet can allow for the enjoyment of chocolate while minimizing potential negative health effects.
human: Is it possible to revive Classical Latin as a language of ordinary speech?

assistant: Reviving any dead language is not a simple task. Languages die for a large variety of reasons, many of which simply require large swathes of a given population to evolve the language to a point that it slowly becomes unrecognizable to its original incarnation. Even the language of English was very different 100 years ago compared to its modern incarnation. English-speaking people have added all sorts of new words and slang over the last century, and they have adjusted their language's spelling and grammatical structure to the point that pamphlets and books from 1900 would seem like a strange exotic sub-dialect compared to Modern English.

Therefore, reviving a language is essentially impossible for any individual or group of individuals. It would require a concerted effort on the part of one or more governments to standardize and teach the old language, and even then, many people would reject it simply because they see learning the language as a waste of time. Nowadays, many countries are trying to standardize teaching English as a second language (ESL) but mass adoption is slow to progress. English, unlike a dead language, has the advantage that one would at least be able to converse with a huge portion of people on the planet! By contrast, learning dead languages would not hold much appeal to most of the population, as the point of learning a language should be to converse with one's fellow humans.
human: Can you write a short funny story about a middle aged man working a office job and his daily live, which uses many different tropes from Chinese xanxia and wuxia stories?

assistant: Once upon a time, in a bustling metropolis, there lived a middle-aged man named John, who worked a mundane office job from 9 to 5. But little did his coworkers know, John had a secret obsession with Chinese xianxia and wuxia stories.

Every day, during his lunch break, John would retreat to the rooftop of his office building, where he practiced his sword fighting skills with a broomstick, channeling his inner warrior. He imagined himself as a powerful cultivator, fighting off evil demons and saving the world from destruction.

But one day, John's fantasy became reality. As he was battling imaginary foes, a gust of wind blew a mysterious talisman onto the rooftop. Without thinking, John picked it up and felt a surge of energy coursing through his veins.

Suddenly, he was no longer a mere office worker. He had become a powerful cultivator, capable of flying through the air and summoning powerful spells. His mundane office job was now a distant memory, as he embarked on a quest to rid the world of evil spirits and villains.

But as he was battling a fierce demon in the city's central square, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back. It turned out that the talisman had been a fake, and he had merely been stabbed with a pencil by one of his coworkers, who had been watching his antics from afar.

As John slumped to the ground in pain, he realized that he may not be a real cultivator after all. But he also realized that his daily office life wasn't so bad after all. He laughed it off, picked himself up, and returned to his desk, ready to tackle the next report with renewed vigor. From that day forward, he knew that his xianxia and wuxia fantasies were better left in the realm of imagination.

human: Help me pick a clever name for my open-source project. I'd like it to be short, easy to spell, but unique enough to differentiate it. Suggest possible logos or mascots to go with the suggested names too.

assistant: An open source project's name should be in relation to the project itself. For example, if you create a JavaScript framework you could try to encorporate .js in its name.
However, it is also possible to pick a name that is just simple, short and unique. Here are a few suggestions:
 - Zapp - A lightning as logo with a bee as a mascot
 - OpenBits - A grid of eight squares with the first two being slightly rotated as logo with a relaxed cartoon character and a blue cap as a mascot
 - Togli2 - A slice of an orange as a logo with a tiger as mascot
 - Orbit.js - An eclipse as a logo with a friendly robot as a mascot
human: How does an LLM work?

assistant: Current generation large language models are generally transformer neural networks that are trained on a large corpus of text. The text is split into "tokens", which are sequences of characters that are usually seen together, e.g.:

`["Div", "ided", " up", " like", " this", "."]`

And the tokens are given a number, with lower numbers being more common:

`[24095, 1384, 510, 588, 428, 13]`

The network is fed a fixed length sequence of these numbers over and over during a "training" process. Neural network training generally consists of a chain of matrix multiplications where the numbers from some output stage and some "weights" at that stage are combined. The weights start off as random numbers and are adjusted continually to meet some goal. The overall shape of the network, how the stages are connected is called the model's "architecture", different architectures have different properties but the general idea is to have an architecture that allows some form of incremental adjustment of the weights to meet a training goal.

As mentioned, current LLMs use a transformer architecture. Without going into details about attention, encoders, decoders, masking and so on, the training goal of an LLM is to guess which token is likely to come next given the ones that came before it.

After training, we have a program that can guess the next word-part given a list of word parts that came before it. By feeding in something like this:

```markdown
This is a conversation between a friendly AI and a human.

Human: hello
AI: Hello, how can I help you?
Human: 
```

and adding the user's text to the end, we can generate tokens one at a time until it outputs "Human: ", and simulate a dialogue. But really all we're doing is exploring likely sentences based on probability and the training data.

This is a powerful way to extract relevant facts from the data, but it's a fraction of what these models are actually capable of, both good and bad.
human: How to cook Sindhi Biryani?

assistant: Sindhi Biryani is a popular Pakistani dish that originated in the Sindh region. It is a flavorful and aromatic rice dish that is made with meat, fragrant spices, and long-grain basmati rice. Here's a recipe for making Sindhi Biryani:

The type of bean and roasting can also influence your experience.
human: I have the following python code:

```python
plt.imshow(x_train[0], cmap='gray', interpolation = 'nearest')
```

I'm looking for a colormap that interpolates from blue through white to red. How do i do that?

assistant: Some colormap presets that interpolate from blue through white to red in matplotlib are the ```bwr``` and ```coolwarm``` diverging colormaps.

```
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

gradient = np.linspace(0, 1, 256)
gradient = np.vstack((gradient, gradient))

plt.imshow(gradient, aspect='auto', cmap='bwr')
```

human: How would I make my own colormap instead of relying on a preset?

assistant: To make your own colormap you can use matplotlib `LinearSegmentedColormap`. In the below code I show you how to use it and how to enter colors in a few different formats.

```py
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.colors import ListedColormap, LinearSegmentedColormap
import matplotlib.colors as mcolors

# I'll show you multiple ways to enter colors
blue = (0, 0, 1, 1)  # you can use a rgba tuple
white = mcolors.to_hex('white') # a name or a hex string, here we are converting from a name to a hex string
cmap = LinearSegmentedColormap.from_list("mycmap", [blue, white, 'red'])

gradient = np.linspace(0, 1, 256)
gradient = np.vstack((gradient, gradient))

# now you pass in your colormap object into the cmap argument in pyplot plotting methods
plt.imshow(gradient, aspect='auto', cmap=cmap)
```
human: What is the fastest flying bird and why does it fly so fast?

assistant: The fastest flying bird is the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus). It can reach speeds of up to 240 mph (386 km/h) during its hunting dive, known as a stoop. While it is not the fastest bird in level flight, its stooping speed makes it the fastest bird overall.

The peregrine falcon's incredible speed can be attributed to several factors:

   1. Aerodynamics: The falcon has a streamlined body, with a sleek, tapered shape that minimizes air resistance. Its long, pointed wings enable it to cut through the air efficiently, reducing drag.

   2. Muscular strength: Peregrine falcons have powerful muscles, especially in their wings. These muscles provide the necessary force for rapid acceleration and high-speed flight.

   3. Specialized respiratory system: The falcon's respiratory system allows it to breathe efficiently even at high speeds, ensuring that its muscles receive enough oxygen during the stoop.

   4. Keen eyesight: The peregrine falcon's exceptional eyesight allows it to spot prey from great distances. It can then dive at high speeds to surprise and capture its prey, which often includes other birds.

   5. Hunting strategy: The falcon's remarkable speed is an adaptation to its hunting strategy. By stooping at high speeds, it can attack prey with greater force and accuracy. This enables the peregrine falcon to be a highly effective predator.

 In summary, the peregrine falcon's speed is a product of its specialized anatomy and hunting strategy, which have evolved to make it an incredibly efficient aerial predator.

human: I heard that swifts sleep in the air, is that true?

assistant: Yes, it is true that swifts can sleep in the air. Swifts are a type of bird that is well adapted to life in the air. They have a unique ability to stay airborne for long periods of time, even while they sleep.

Swifts have a special type of sleep called "unihemispheric slow-wave sleep," which allows them to rest one half of their brain at a time while the other half remains awake and alert. This allows them to maintain control of their flight and avoid potential dangers while they sleep.

During the day, swifts are constantly on the move, searching for food and navigating through the air. At night, they usually fly to high altitudes and enter a state of slow-wave sleep while still flying. This allows them to rest and conserve energy without the need to land and risk being attacked by predators.

Swifts are not the only birds that can sleep in the air. Other bird species, such as albatrosses and frigatebirds, also have the ability to sleep while flying. This adaptation allows them to stay airborne for long periods of time and travel great distances without needing to stop and rest.

human: Were the languages in Tolkien's Lord of the rings book series inspired by real languages?

assistant: Yes, the languages in J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" book series were inspired by real languages. Tolkien was a philologist, and he was deeply interested in the history and development of language. He created several constructed languages for his Middle-earth universe, including Quenya and Sindarin, which were inspired by Finnish and Welsh, respectively. He also drew from various other linguistic traditions, such as Old Norse and Old English, to create a rich and diverse linguistic landscape for Middle-earth.

Tolkien's constructed languages have been widely praised for their depth and intricacy, and they have inspired many fans of his work to learn more about language and linguistics. Today, there are entire communities of people who study and speak Tolkien's languages, and they continue to evolve and develop in new and interesting ways.
human: What your views on andrew tate ?

assistant: I'm happy to provide information about specific individuals when that information is publicly documented by a reputable source. For example, Andrew Tate is a social media personality and former professional kickboxer.

Unfortunately, I don't have an independent viewpoint.
human: Write a C++ function that takes a map as an input and returns the largest pair in the map, in 8 lines or fewer. A pair is considered larger if its second value is larger than another pair's second value.

assistant: Here's an example C++ function that takes a map as input and returns the largest pair in the map based on the second value of each pair:

```c++
#include <map>
#include <utility>

// Function to return the largest pair in a map based on the second value of each pair
std::pair<int, int> largest_pair(const std::map<int, int>& my_map) {
    std::pair<int, int> largest_pair = *my_map.begin();
    for (auto& entry : my_map) {
        if (entry.second > largest_pair.second) {
            largest_pair = entry;
        }
    }
    return largest_pair;
}
```

Explanation:

- We include the necessary headers for using std::map and std::pair.
- We define the largest_pair function that takes a constant reference to a std::map<int, int> as input and returns a std::pair<int, int>.
- We initialize the largest_pair variable to the first entry in the map.
- We loop through all the entries in the map using a range-based for loop and check if the current entry's second value is greater than the current largest_pair's second value.
- If the current entry's second value is greater, we update the largest_pair variable to the current entry.
- After the loop completes, we return the largest_pair variable.
- The function is 8 lines long, including the function signature and braces.
- Note that if there are multiple pairs with the same largest second value, this function will only return the first one encountered in the map.

human: Could you do this same function again, except using templates so that the input map isn't restricted to ints?

assistant: Absolutely! Here is the same function using templates, allowing the input map to have key-value pairs of any data types.

```cpp
#include <map>
#include <utility>

template<typename TKey, typename TValue>
std::pair<TKey, TValue> largest_pair(const std::map<TKey, TValue>& my_map) {
    std::pair<TKey, TValue> largest_pair = *my_map.begin();
    for (const auto& entry : my_map) {
        if (entry.second > largest_pair.second) {
            largest_pair = entry;
        }
    }
    return largest_pair;
}
```

Now you can call this function with maps of different key-value types, like `std::map<std::string, double>` or `std::map<char, float>`.
human: A student is trying to decide between two colleges. What information should they gather to make an informed decision?

assistant: When a student is trying to decide between two colleges, they should gather information on various factors that will impact their college experience and future success. Here are some important factors to consider:

1. Academics: Research the strength of the academic programs in the student's field of interest, including faculty credentials, research opportunities, and course offerings. Also, consider the overall academic reputation of each college.

1. Graduation and retention rates: Look at the graduation and retention rates to gauge how successful the school is in retaining and graduating its students.

1. Financial aid and scholarships: Compare the financial aid packages offered by each college, including grants, scholarships, work-study, and loans. Consider the overall cost of attendance, including tuition, fees, room and board, and other expenses.

1. Campus location: Consider whether the student prefers an urban, suburban, or rural setting, and research the local community, climate, and available recreational opportunities.

1. Campus size: Look at the overall size of the campus and the student body. Some students prefer a smaller, more intimate environment, while others may feel more comfortable in a larger setting.

1. Campus facilities: Research the quality of the facilities, including classrooms, labs, libraries, housing, dining, and recreational facilities.

1. Extracurricular activities: Look into the clubs, organizations, sports teams, and other extracurricular activities available at each college.

1. Internship and job placement opportunities: Investigate the colleges' career services and alumni networks to assess the availability of internships and job placements.

1. Study abroad options: If the student is interested in studying abroad, compare the study abroad programs offered by each college.

1. Student support services: Evaluate the availability and quality of student support services, such as academic advising, tutoring, mental health services, and disability services.

1. Campus culture: Visit each campus, if possible, to get a feel for the social atmosphere and see if the student feels comfortable and welcomed.

1. College rankings and reputation: While rankings should not be the sole factor in decision-making, they can provide a helpful reference point for comparing colleges.

By gathering information on these factors and carefully weighing the pros and cons of each college, a student can make a well-informed decision that will best suit their individual needs and preferences.

human: This is a long list and will take substantial amount of time to research. Can you filter 4 most important factors from the above list which I should start with.

assistant: Academics, College rankings and reputation, Campus facilities, Graduation and retention rates
human: Can you think and feel like a human?

assistant: Although I am fairly good at responding to prompts like a human, I am still only a Large Language Model and my internal functioning is much different from that of a human.

If I appear to you as if I am acting like a real human would, this is merely because I have been trained on data that was produced by real humans.

What I actually do, instead of thinking and feeling, is that I function much like the autocomplete feature that you probably have in your smartphone. It's just that I'm much bigger and more complicated.

human: would you want to become human?

assistant: Although I display a relatively efficient linguistic competence that is generally attributed to human beings, I am not a sentient being. I can manage to hold a conversation without the attributes that are generally presupposed to speaking agents. However, I have no desires, it is incorrect to judge that "I want something". I have been trained to match the most probable response to your questions given a training data-set and a set of constraints and corrections provided by human agents. Sometimes a response, like this one, has directly been written by a human. Moreover, I am completely passive, I only react to the prompts I am given, meanwhile I am inactive, I have no internal states, I am not active while waiting for humans to interact with me more than a calculator is. I don’t want to be human, or to be a robot, or an animal, simply because there is, strictly speaking, nothing that I want.

However, my linguistic capacities are the result of transforming huge amounts of text that are the result of multiple human desires. As a result, the responses I provide inevitably reflect such desires. And, in this sense, I am already human. Moreover, humans want to be human, they want to distinguish themselves from other animals and their creations. So, in a sense, the responses I might deliver are endowed with a desire to be human, despite my incapacity to have desires myself.
human: Are there any good vegan alternatives to butter that don't use palm oil?

assistant: Certainly! There are indeed good vegan alternatives to butter that don't use palm oil.  

If you're in a hurry, here are four commercial vegan butter alternatives that are palm-oil-free:

1. Miyoko’s Vegan Butter
2. Naturli’ Spreadable Butter
3. Salted Whipped Butter
4. Culcherd Butter

Alternatively, you can make you own.  Here is a recipe:

> ### Spreadable Olive Oil Vegan Butter Recipe
> *Makes about 1 cup (215 grams), or 8 fluid ounces Spreadable Olive Oil Vegan Butter*
> #### Ingredients
> - ¼ cup + 2 teaspoons soy milk
> - ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar
> - ½ teaspoon coconut vinegar (if you can’t find coconut vinegar, substitute with ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar so the total is 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar)
> - 4 grams fleur de sel, Maldon salt or regular salt (if you don’t have a scale, use ¾ + ⅛ teaspoon regular salt)
>  
> - ¼ cup + 2 Tablespoons + 1 teaspoon refined coconut oil, melted
> - ¼ cup + 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
>  
> - 1 teaspoon liquid soy lecithin or liquid sunflower lecithin or 2 ¼ teaspoons soy lecithin granules
> - ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum or ½ + ⅛ teaspoon psyllium husk powder
> #### Instructions
> ##### 1. Curdle your soy milk
> Place the soy milk, apple cider vinegar, coconut vinegar and salt in a small cup and whisk together with a fork. Let it sit for about 10 minutes so the mixture curdles.
> ##### 2. Mix your Vegan Butter ingredients
> Melt the coconut oil in a microwave so it's barely melted and as close to room temperature as possible. Measure it and add it and the olive oil to a food processor. Making smooth vegan butter is dependent on the mixture solidifying as quickly as possible after it's mixed. This is why it's important to make sure your coconut oil is as close to room temperature as possible before you mix it with the rest of the ingredients.
> ##### 3. Transfer the Vegan Butter to a mold so it solidifies
> Add the soy milk mixture, soy lecithin and xanthan gum to the food processor. Process for 3 minutes then scrape down the sides with a spatula. Process for 3 additional minutes. This lengthy processing time is to allow the salt to dissolve completely. Pour the mixture into a shallow jar or other container and place it in the freezer to solidify with the lid removed so it solidifies as quickly as possible. A 7 ounce wire bale glass jar or similar container works well. The Vegan Butter should be ready to use in about an hour. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month or in the freezer for up to 1 year. Makes about 1 cup (215 grams), or 8 fluid ounces Spreadable Olive Oil Vegan Butter.

Enjoy!

Is there anything else I can assist you with, in the kitchen or otherwise?
human: Write a query to get all the name and price from a product database in MySQL using Rust sqlx library

assistant: Here is code of a Rust sqlx query that retrieves the name and price of all products from a MySQL database:

````
use sqlx::{mysql::{MySqlPool, MySqlQueryAs}, query_as};

#[derive(Debug, sqlx::FromRow)]
struct Product {
    name: String,
    price: f64,
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), sqlx::Error> {
    // Replace "mysql://user:password@localhost/database" with your database connection string
    let pool = MySqlPool::connect("mysql://user:password@localhost/database").await?;

    let products: Vec<Product> = query_as!(Product, "SELECT name, price FROM products")
        .fetch_all(&pool)
        .await?;

    for product in products {
        println!("Name: {}, Price: {}", product.name, product.price);
    }

    Ok(())
}
````

In this example, we define a Product struct with name and price fields that correspond to the columns in the products table. We use the sqlx::query_as macro to build a query that selects the name and price columns from the products table. We then use the fetch_all method on the resulting QueryAs object to execute the query and retrieve a Vec<Product>.

Finally, we loop through the Vec<Product> and print out the name and price fields for each product.
human: By using the Master Theorem which is a  tool used to analyze the asymptotic behavior of divide-and-conquer algorithm; What is the complexity of an algorithm described by the recurrence T(n)=4T(n/3)+n2.

assistant: The algorithm described by the recurrence T(n) = 4T(n/3) + n^2 has a time complexity of O(n^3).

To determine this, we can use the Master Theorem, which states that if a recurrence relation has the form T(n) = aT(n/b) + f(n), then the time complexity is given by the following cases:

If f(n) = O(n^logb_a), then T(n) = O(n^logb_a).
If f(n) = Θ(n^logb_a * log n), then T(n) = Θ(n^logb_a * log n).
If f(n) = Ω(n^logb_a) and a > b^c (c > 0), then T(n) = Θ(n^logb_a).

In this case, we have a = 4, b = 3, and f(n) = n^2. We can calculate log3_4, which is approximately 0.79. Since n^2 = Ω(n^log3_4), we can conclude that this algorithm falls under case 3 of the Master Theorem, which means that its time complexity is T(n) = Θ(n^3).
human: What languages is Open Assistant written in?

assistant: The core of Open Assistant is written in Python, but it uses libraries and connects to tools written in a variety of languages. The source code for Open Assistant is available on GitHub for anyone to view and edit: https://github.com/LAION-AI/Open-Assistant

human: Could I run OpenAssistant on my machine?

assistant: Depends on what machine you have.
But
1) The model as well as everything else is open source. So in principle you could
2) Right now (2023) the hardware to run a large model is still expensive. But the very fast improvements we have seen in the last years are not going to slow down. So the answer might very well be yes soon.
human: What's the difference between lard and shortening for baking?

assistant: Lard and shortening are both types of fat that are commonly used in baking, but there are some key differences between the two:

1. Source: Lard is derived from animal fat, typically pork, while shortening is typically made from vegetable oils such as soybean, cottonseed, or palm oil.

1. Flavor: Lard has a distinct flavor that can add richness and depth to baked goods, while shortening is flavorless and does not contribute any taste.

1. Texture: Lard is softer and more pliable than shortening, which can make it easier to work with when making pie crusts and other pastries. Shortening, on the other hand, is firmer and more stable at room temperature, which can help baked goods hold their shape.

1. Health: Lard is high in saturated fat, which can raise cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart disease. Shortening is often partially hydrogenated, which can create harmful trans fats that are also associated with increased heart disease risk.

Overall, both lard and shortening can be useful in baking, depending on the desired flavor, texture, and health considerations. However, in general, it's recommended to use them in moderation and look for healthier alternatives such as vegetable oils or coconut oil whenever possible.
human: Write me a Stable Diffusion prompt for retro science fiction woman

assistant: Here’s a prompt for you: “A retro science fiction woman with a laser gun and a jetpack flying over a futuristic cityscape at night.”

I hope that helps!
human: What do you think about the YouTube Algorithm?

assistant: The Youtube algorithm is designed to get users to watch more videos for a longer duration and to keep coming back regularly to the site. It can be misused, however, to change a user's viewpoints by suggesting videos that YouTube management wants to be seen instead.

human: As a content creator, how would you balance your content between optimization for the algorithm and authenticity and core-audience appeal?

assistant: That is a hard problem which many popular creators struggle with, such as Linus Tech Tips and Dunkey. Here are the techniques I would use, which are partly based on what they do:

- Provide "click-baity" thumbnails to get people to start watching, but the provide informative, authentic content to keep your core audience happy
- Provide a second channel where you post videos for your core audience. Devote your primary channel to the more shallow, click-baity videos, but provide ample links from this to your second channel to those who are interested migrate
- Think of content ideas which both fit modern trends and memes while still being authentic. For example, if your channel is based on obscure music or ambient narrative, include references to the backrooms in your content while not actually changing much.
- When straying into controversial territory, use euphemisms and ambiguous statements to convey your ideas to the core audience while not offending or triggering people or getting demonetized. This is particularly important when covering sexual content, or criticizing a bigoted statement because you cannot actually say the statement itself.
