After the news about the Start Menu, the name briefly had me convinced someone actually rebuilt all of Windows in React Native.

Been there, done that. Found it quite relatable. It was a great read.

First they sell you the sickness and then they tell you the cure is too dangerous to release to the general public. Because their sickness will not sell.

Splines are polynomials after all. Also, not every spline has this problem. The one YouTube is using is Cardinal spline.

Criticism is definitely welcome!

You are likely right that I over-rotated on the "storytelling" aspect there. My curiosity about the "100 segments" stemmed from wondering if there was a deeper statistical reason for that specific granularity (e.g., optimal binning relative to average video length) versus it just being a "nice round number."

That said, I can see how dedicating two paragraphs to it felt like over-dramatizing a constant. I will try to tighten the pacing on the next one. Thanks for reading despite the irritation!

I really appreciate that you found it entertaining; that was the main goal! Same here, I'll take "fun to read" over "SEO optimized" any day of the week.
