Nice! Thanks, I've edited my post to use this shorter version. The sleep is needed to avoid freezing the tab.

This runs it randomly 1000 times (well not reaaally randomly, but it gets close), just paste it into the browser console:

const times = 1000;

function sleep(ms) { return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms)); }

async function run() { for (let i = 0; i < times; i++) { await sleep(10); play(Math.floor(Math.random()*3)); } }

run();

Note: personal opinion bellow

It seems to me that the overall interest in Facebook is decreasing. The social network hasn't had any interesting feature added to it in the last couple of years. It's becoming boring and boring, so that's why I believe people are leaving.

Still, Instagram and WhatsApp are running strong with barely no competition. We don't see any news about their user base decreasing and news channels don't seem to dislike them. Facebook is doing a good job making sure their biggest three platforms are seem as independent from one another, keeping Instagram and WhatsApp almost free from controversy.

Personally I see no loss for them here. Besides, they will promptly acquire any new players that look promising, or shamelessly copy them as they did with Snapchat.

Ohh now I got you. I believe README should be improved in this part then.

It reads:

====

Although it can usually work if all you have is the video file, it will be faster (and potentially more accurate) if you have a correctly synchronized "reference" srt file, in which case you can do the following:

subsync reference.srt -i unsynchronized.srt -o synchronized.srt

====

I believe you should explain that if you have a reference file in another language which is correctly synchronized with that video, you can use that file instead of the video, as its timestamps will serve as references when synchronizing the target .srt file.

Now this has raised a question, what if the reference file has a different block count? For example, in some languages (like Chinese or Japanese) we can say a lot with fewer characters than in English. So in Chinese a text will stay on the screen for a long time, whereas in English the corresponding text would be split into two or more blocks. Wouldn't that make synchronization less accurate?

BTW that's a cool project. Thanks for sharing!

Sorry for the dumb question, but what exactly does this do?

`subsync reference.srt -i unsynchronized.srt -o synchronized.srt`

I mean, I already have a synchronized srt file, so what would I be syncing here?

What I know about her is that she was a member of the Docker team and now works for Microsoft. She seems like a good professional and is popular among those who are into twitter, blogging and events, but I don't know if there's anything particular remarkable about her (if you are thinking about celebrities such as Ritchie, Linus, Stallman and others).

It goes like this: "so you want to be anonymous and won't let us track every single thing you do? ok, then you'll help us train our AI so we can improve our self-driving cars and improve how Google Maps extracts information from Street View images"

Reactstrap is cool, but you basically need to re-learn bootstrap. For every component you are using, you need to check their documentation to see if they came up with an attribute for that or if you can use bootstrap classes. It does improves readability, but doesn't pay off IMHO.

Did they require you to be US-based or did that offer apply worldwide?
