Summary

TLDRDonny wants to give an update about his plans for YouTube after taking a break from daily vlogging. He intended to start a podcast but ran into technical issues. He also lost some old footage he wanted to use to recap his vlogging career. Donny apologizes for the radio silence but assures he will not quit YouTube. He will post a compilation video of old footage, a special Lambo announcement video, and then continue creating real life content, just less frequently than daily vlogs.

Takeaways

😭 The creator apologizes for not uploading videos for five weeks, despite initially planning a two to three-week hiatus.
🎬 The intention was to demonstrate changes to the channel through actions rather than just talking about them.
📝 Outlines a clear plan for the main channel and podcast channel, including a shift from daily vlogging to podcasting.
🔊 Discusses technical issues with audio in the podcast, specifically a persistent beeping noise that has been difficult to eliminate.
💰 Highlights the financial and time costs associated with attempting to fix the audio issue.
📱 Shares plans for other social media platforms like Snapchat and Instagram, indicating a broadened content strategy.
📲 Mentions a significant setback with a hard drive, leading to the loss of hundreds of daily vlogs needed for a compilation video.
🛡️ Talks about plans involving a Lamborghini for a special announcement video, suggesting content related to cars remains a focus.
📚 Promises upcoming content includes a compilation video of the last five years and a special story involving the Lamborghini.
🙏 Expresses gratitude for good health and the ability to continue creating content, despite recent surgery and the challenges faced.

Q & A

What was Don's original plan for his YouTube channels?
-Don's original plan was to stop vlogging daily on his main channel, and instead start a podcast channel where he would upload 2-3 podcast episodes per week. He also planned to continue uploading edited, more creative videos on his main channel, but not daily anymore.
Why did Don stop uploading podcast episodes after only 2?
-There was an annoying beeping sound in the audio that Don and his team could not fix, despite trying everything. This made the audio quality too poor to release more episodes.
What challenges prevented Don from uploading new videos to his main channel?
-Two main reasons - 1) He lost a few hundred old vlog files he wanted to use to make a compilation/highlight video 2) Issues with getting his Lamborghini fixed up for a special announcement video he had planned.
How long has it been since Don uploaded a video, and why does he feel this is too long?
-It has been 5 weeks since Don uploaded a video. He feels this is too long because he told viewers he would only be gone 2-3 weeks, and the lack of clarity is confusing for his audience.
What type of content does Don plan to upload to his main channel going forward?
-Don plans to upload real life content similar to his old vlogs, but edited with more creativity/planning and not daily. He also has a vlog compilation video and a Lambo announcement video coming soon.
Is Don planning to continue his podcast channel for now?
-No, Don is putting the podcast plans on hold for now so he can focus on getting his main YouTube channel back up and running with regular uploads.
What other platforms will Don use to give followers more day-to-day updates?
-Don plans to be more active on Snapchat and Instagram to share daily updates until he gets his YouTube channel back on track.
How is Don's health now after his recent surgery?
-Don says his post-surgery health is good - he recently had a 1-year checkup and doesn't need to return to the doctor, which means the surgery was very successful.
Does Don plan to quit YouTube permanently?
-No, Don emphasizes that he is absolutely not quitting YouTube. He misses filming and uploading and looks forward to creating new content.
When can viewers expect to see new videos from Don?
-Very soon - first will be a vlog compilation video, then a Lambo announcement video, then regular vlog-style but more planned/edited content.

👋 Introducing the video and initial plan

The speaker introduces the video and mentions he had a plan that has not entirely succeeded yet. He explains it is time to be transparent and provide clarity, referring to his last vlog where he said he would not disappear from YouTube but would take a different approach. However, it has already been 6 weeks without a video, which was not the intention.

📽️ Explaining the issues faced and revised plans

The speaker explains the issues faced that prevented uploading new content as planned, including an audio issue with the podcast and missing daily vlogs. He shares his revised plans to focus on the main channel for now, with a compilation video and Lamborghini announcement video coming soon, followed by more realistic content.

Mindmap

Keywords

💡Daily vlogs

The video creator mentions that he has been uploading daily vlogs to YouTube for 5 years. The daily vlogs capture his daily life activities and experiences. However, he plans to move away from the daily vlog format going forward.

💡Upload schedule

The creator talks about his plans for changing his YouTube upload schedule. After daily vlogs, he wants to take more time on editing and planning videos, with less pressure to film and edit within 24 hours.

💡Podcast channel

The creator launched a separate podcast channel alongside his main YouTube channel. He planned to upload 2-3 podcast episodes per week but faced technical issues resulting in no new uploads in weeks.

💡Audio issues

The podcast recordings were ruined by an unidentifiable beeping sound. Despite troubleshooting efforts and costs, the issue could not be resolved, preventing new podcast episodes.

💡Vlog compilation

To celebrate 5 years of vlogs, the creator planned a compilation of funny and memorable vlog moments. But he lost access to hundreds of old vlog files, delaying this celebratory video.

💡Lamborghini

The creator mentions planning a YouTube video featuring his Lamborghini, likely as part of announcing his shift away from daily vlogs. But the Lamborghini is undergoing modifications, delaying this announcement.

💡Health issues

The creator recently had surgery, which affected his ability to maintain his YouTube efforts. But a successful follow-up shows he has recovered fully.

💡Reorganization

With the daily vlog format ending, the creator talks about reorganizing his YouTube approach - trying new content types, schedules, creativity. This transition has faced unexpected delays.

💡Snapchat

To share more casual, daily updates, the creator plans to be more active on Snapchat. He encourages viewers to follow him there for behind-the-scenes looks at his life.

💡Instagram

Like Snapchat, Instagram will be another social media platform where the creator engages with his audience more regularly outside of the polished YouTube videos.

Highlights

Proposed a new deep learning model called Transformer that achieves state-of-the-art performance in neural machine translation

Transformer model relies entirely on self-attention to compute representations of its input and output without using sequence aligned RNNs or convolution

Self-attention allows the model to capture dependencies regardless of distance between input and output

Transformer model achieves faster training and better performance compared to previous sequence transduction models

Proposed positional encoding to make use of order of sequence

Introduced multi-head attention to allow model to jointly attend to information from different positions

Proposed encoder-decoder structure where encoder maps input sequence to continuous representation

Decoder generates output sequence one token at a time based on encoder output and previously generated tokens

Achieved state-of-the-art BLEU scores on WMT 2014 English-to-German and English-to-French datasets

Model is highly parallelizable and trains faster than sequence-aligned models like RNNs

Opens up more applications of attention-based models in natural language processing and other sequence tasks

Code and pretrained models are publicly available to facilitate research and application of Transformer model

Approach is generalizable to other tasks involving mapping between continuous representations

Transformer model advances state-of-the-art in neural machine translation and provides new direction for sequence modeling

Self-attention and Transformer model have become essential building blocks in natural language processing
