Dave, are you OK if i want to make spainish translation subtitles for your video? Because it would be cool to share it with some of my friends, but none of them speak english.

I know it's not important to reach other languages with your electronics videos because it's a niche topic and pretty much anyone who gets to your channel probably knows english already, but this video is specially interesting from an educative standpoint so

Edit:By the way, that shirt is sick.

If it's in a format suitable for upload to Youtube then I can easily add it, no problems.

Perhaps you mean "slick"?  :-//

Alright, tomorrow if i get some time i'll see if i'm up for the task for the long version on eevdiscover, and when(and if) i'm done i'll send the .srt file. (and then you can add it or before that obviously send it to someone to proofread if you want to make sure)

Apparently you can enable subtitle contributions from the video settings panel but oh dont mind it, that makes my name appear on the credits but i dont really care about credits and besides my youtube account is my real name wich i dont want floating around on the internet.

I enjoyed both the short version and the whole version of this conversation (even though I didn't initially want to watch such a long video).  It was also nice to hear some familiar things from my work with a quantum computer (and to know that what he was talking about was Grover's algorithm (the sort/square root part) and that what puts the qubits into superposition is the Hadamard gate).

If anyone's interested, awhile ago I made a tutorial video on how to use IBM's quantum computer (which is free to use) and a tutorial on quantum computing (BTW, in case it needs to be said, neither one is me in the video thumbnail picture - I don't work at IBM, etc. - that's IBM's website that you go to in order to use their quantum computer):
