🇪🇺 From July 2026, a new EU regulation will require all new cars to include driver-surveillance systems (ADDW), using interior cameras to track eye movement, head position and attention levels to detect “distraction or drowsiness.” The systems are designed for in-car safety alerts, with data processed in real time within the vehicle.

One screenshot. YouTube's own dashboard. Same channel, within two days Three days ago YouTube demonetised my channel of 154 episodes for "inauthentic content - mass produced." My appeal came back denied yesterday. The same week, YouTube's own analytics tool generated this assessment of my latest episode: "performing exceptionally well... an outlier in the best possible way." I've spent 3 years, working 50-70 hours per week building a serialised D&D campaign in an original world, with an audience of 1,250+ paying supporters across BOTH YouTube + Patreon, 500 of whom are now being cut off from supporting what they love, losing membership badges they've held for 2+ years. If nothing else, this is unfair to them, and the damage is done. The denial cites "similar template across multiple videos" as the reason. That criteria applies to every podcast, every gameplay channel, every long-form actual play show on YouTube. I'd genuinely like to understand what specifically distinguishes my work from the formats YouTube actively recommends. The denial also says I can reapply in 90 days "after making changes." But the same email says they can't tell me which videos triggered the decision. You can't fix what you can't identify. And at the risk of repeating myself, what good does that do for the woman who has been with the channel for 1 year 8 months, or the man for 2 years 5 months? Nothing. They're two of the 500 people now being cut off from supporting work they love, through no decision of their own. Or mine. To @TeamYouTube - please open this case for human review. Every cited claim has been addressed with evidence in the replies below. To my audience - please be respectful and polite if you engage. The work continues. I'll see you all Friday on Patreon. - Lewis / TheAIGuy (7 receipts in replies. Audio. Cinematic. Editing. Performance. Audience. Music licensing. The broken process.)



Hydra v2 (alpha) is here! This release simplifies the Hydra Head protocol by removing the commit phase entirely: heads now open directly, and funds are added incrementally via deposits. This eliminates collectCom and abort transactions, resolves the long-standing "non-abortable head" issue, and reduces lifecycle costs for most use cases. More details: github.com/cardano-scalin… Please try it out and give us feedback!

UPDATE: Charles Hoskinson says "there's something called reputation, and after showing up everyday for 10 years, and fighting hard for you on the good days and the bad days, at some point, I should get some form of benefit of the doubt, that at least my intentions are genuine."
