The first 15 seconds thing is the part where I'm just baffled.
Like, is this just some pennywise cost saving measure so if it ever gets to a human moderator they only have to watch 15 seconds to make a decision?
It can't possibly be a limit on speech-to-text compute time, they're already doing that for the whole video for closed captioning.
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

Likely because on mobile, they autoplay vids. So if there is objectionable material in that brief window where you might stop scrolling (while you are moving your finger back to the bottom of the screen), they lose money. Or so their analytics say.

Boy, it would be great if there were a way to prevent that. Maybe by not autoplaying videos which everyone hates anyway.

The advertisers are constantly worried about brand safety. To them it's counterproductive if the viewer has any kind of negative reaction to something right after seeing one of their ads. 15 seconds is probably the compromise YouTube reached with them.

Ads on youtube are weird
As you get hour 1+ ads Those are not ads! I get recipes that are a minute or so. I know it's that time of year I get to see the weight loss active lifestyle snake oil stuff again . Other ads vary wildly
I know I watch problematic stuff on youtube so I get the right wing silly goose ads which I got tired of skipping and saying I do not want to see again flagging
I only thought there were like 1 or 2 of these games
Hey, remember back in the PS1 days when every game would come with a warning that you should be super cautious with turning off or resetting while saving? Well Fighting Force crashed while saving leading to it erasing my entire memory card. The FF7 near 100% completion save? Gone. All of my created characters in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Smackdown 2 were also lost. All of of the games I had on that memory card were back to square one thanks to this shitty shitty brawler.
I only ever get ads for big tiddie anime girl mobile games on YouTube anymore and while I'm a filthy deviant I'm not that kind of filthy deviant. So I'm not sure why the algorithm targets that at me specifically?
I think maybe it's because I subscribe to some gaming channels and the giant, pulsing brain connected to tubes and wires in a basement under youtube HQ that is their algorithm goes "him watch vimbeogaym vibeo so him like ad for CLASH OF HERO WAR: IDLE DESPERATE WIFU which is also vito gum"
youtube suddenly decided I needed to see 5000 motorcycle videos in my recommendations today, despite never riding, owning, or caring about one
it's almost like the algorithm is GIGO
This would raise red flags to me that maybe the account was compromised (also sometimes it just randomly logs me out and I see the default suggestions which are ass)
I have 2FA, and all the security stuff/notifications turned on, and my history in youtube is turned off so that's likely what leads to part of the weirdness.
so if I'm hacked it's from coming from inside the house, as it were

My YouTube Shorts recommendations have had a marked decrease in Andrew Tate content recently (I wonder what could have changed), but a sudden increase in Maddie White, who I'd never heard of before.
I'm much in favor of this change, even though I'm unlikely to ever need to know how to style a bedazzled jumper into a cocktail dress or how to find the perfect thigh high boots and what to wear them with.

It just means that statistically, people with your interests tend to be into big tiddie anime girls. I don't know if many conventional game studios advertise on YouTube. But it would probably be wasted on you since you'd already know about those games anyway.
Huh. Weird. I really wasn't aware of this show beyond maybe having heard of it once and then I remember seeing a dude in a store with one of these characters tattooed on his calf. Thought that was odd. Guess it makes more sense now?
The episode he references at the end, Camping, really is an excellent episode of children’s animation.
As a parent, I think the biggest reason Bluey is a great kids show is that it never breaks away from the characters. They do not enter a Magical World of Imagination. It shows imaginative play with both only their friends as well as adult participants. It’s pretty singular as a show for that, and I really appreciate it. The emotional beats are really good, too, but are often going over their heads, like there’s an episode about Bluey and bingo doing a play about blueys birth for Mother’s Day, and the end of that will destroy most parents but the kids are like Aw that’s sweet, whatever.
Edit: You can also tell that the writers are very keyed in to child development therapy/theory. One of the episodes, called Copycat, starts with Bingo and her dad on a walk. They’re playing a game where she is copying him, but it’s interrupted by them finding an injured budgie by a tree. Bandit has her get a shoebox with a towel, they transport the budgie to a vet, and they wait to see what happens. The person comes out and apologizes and says the bird has sadly died. All during this event, Bandit is being a very Good Dad and is willing to do what he can for the bird, but he doesn’t sugar coat the situation and when they get the news, he comforts Bluey and also talks about how sometimes this stuff happens and it’s ok. He specifically tells her that “it’s out of our hands”
When they get home, they tell the mom what happened, and Bluey is sad. Then she asks Bingo if they can play a game where bingo is the budgie, and Bluey replays the whole situation where she plays the role of her father. When she takes bingo to the vet, her mom plays the vet, and you can tell that she thinks Bluey wants to play a scenario where the bird is ok. So she takes bingo in and is like great news the bird is better.
But Bluey stops playing and says no, you’re supposed to say that the bird didn’t make it. And the mom is confused. Why does her daughter want to reenact a traumatic and sad event exactly like it happened? But she does say it, but then bingo refuses to be dead and starts running around and chirping while they laugh at her.
Chili asks Bluey “this isn’t how you wanted the game to go, is it?”
And Bluey says “no…but it’s ok. It’s out of our hands.” Because she wasn’t trying to imagine a scenario where the budgie lived. She was trying to copy/imagine how her dad handled an emotional situation.
And then the dad steps into frame and says hey Bluey, I just realized you stopped copying me, and she laughs and says oh yeahhh, and then I die and I’m dead from an eight minute show my kids watch.

I think mine are still in a closet somewhere in my grandparents' old house.
I only thought there were like 1 or 2 of these games
There are two and the second genre swapped. I think I learned about the sequel from a Matt video which was him discovering how bad it was.
