good work censoring one of the names

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 100 points 2 months ago (1 children)

She's literally a public figure posting for money. You can see her name below. Obviously the person who censored it doesn't understand the topics of her content.

Doesn't seem like she is doing this but watching a coding tutorial with a topless girl presenting it would be much more fun. I wonder if there is a market for this

True story.

A while back I needed to learn how to tie a necktie in a double Windsor knot. Looked for some videos.

Found one with a hot girl in lingerie showing me how.

I watched it twelve times, then found another video with an old man demonstrating.

[–] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Was the old man in lingerie too?

Decades ago ago there was a series of videos of girls teaching calculus. For example they had a girl lay down on her back and then described how to use integrals to determine the area of her boobs.

[–] Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 36 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Reminds me of a math rhythm my older brother taught me when we were teens

You subtract the clothes
You add the bed
You divide the legs
And then you multiply

[–] vrek@programming.dev 16 points 2 months ago

This was a whole video series, I think like 6 parts. The described Calculus using girls bodies.

During the inception of image algorithms all the engineers started to use a playboy model.

[–] SolSerkonos@piefed.social 24 points 2 months ago

And then kept using it for an extremely long time until basically forced to stop lol.

There's a BobbyBroccoli video on the topic, and it's pretty interesting.

The channel is real:
pornhub.com/zara-dar

(And I don't want that other site in my history, so I'm not looking it up.)

[–] Dagnet@lemmy.world 36 points 2 months ago

oh yeah, only way Im browsing youtube is with a vpn and incognito on

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 109 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe she'll get flagged for appropriate content.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 36 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hope not, that would be a crushing blow! Since I generally boycott YT, I checked out Zara Dar's What is a Neural Network. It's a good overview, and well presented. Ah, a look there's a part 2. It would be great if she could hit 1M views on ProhNub, as a result of this post. Only 207K over the past year, with 2K updoots.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Since people are probably not going to PH to search for this, I wonder if she gets views from people with some kind of autoplay.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 25 points 2 months ago

Why do you suppose people won't go to PH? Here's the link: https://www.pornhub.com/model/zara-dar

Clothing fetish is a thing

[–] Demdaru@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Also, she's not the only one. At some points, Pornhub crew joked about entering competition with YT and they really don't mind non-porn content.

[–] TomMasz@lemmy.world 101 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hey, musicians, Pornhub pays better than Spotify!

WTF I had no idea the CPM had gotten that low. $1 per thousand views for however many ads are in each video is practically nothing.

[–] HuntressHimbo@lemmy.zip 32 points 2 months ago

The more resistant to clicking ads we get the less each ad is worth to the corporate ad buyer and the more ads the services want to jam in to get their profits.

The part I struggle to understand is why corporate ad buyers are okay with the fraud that the big tech companies seemingly routinely get caught on. Famous example being pivot to video on Facebook where they just cooked the books to sell the concept.

The fourth stage is to run away with the money, leaving stockholders and investors with a failed company in their hands which they can't bring back from the dead because both users and business partners hate it.

I know there are gamer girls on sites like Fansly and OnlyFans that stream their gaming sessions in the same way they would on Twitch. I wonder what the engagement and income is for them on those sites versus Twitch or YouTube.

EDIT: I just watched Zara Dar's PornHub video on Loss Functions. Her delivery is a tad robotic but the content is informative.

Hence articles like this bother me:

https://www.axios.com/2025/12/13/joy-reid-leaving-corporate-media

YouTube, Instagram and TikTok…

That’s the trap. These mega platforms feel like “liberating” creative outlets, but they take basically all the ad revenue and hand out scraps; the absolute bare minimum to keep creators around. And that ratio shrinks as the monopoly grows.

Yet creators, even journalists trained to sniff out profiteering, go in blind to that.


And yes, I get it. “Just don’t use them,” is much harder said than done.

…But they could be a little more critical of their platform, like this lady.

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

There is a word for it: enshittification

[–] PrimeMinisterKeyes@leminal.space 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's just hype. They parade around people that "made it" with their revenue programs. The 99 or so % that never make any, or even lose, money in the process are never shown.
A close friend of mine invested a 4-figure amount into travels, gadgets and all sorts of stuff to show off... while being unemployed. Had a huge, organic crowd of followers, too, on several platforms. Tried everything, but never saw a single cent in return.

Having to use a VPN to learn about neural networks feels somewhat dystopian.

[–] Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.works 35 points 2 months ago

To compare this to music streaming, I have a couple of tracks with ~4 million listens, and they each made ~$20.

[–] RunawayFixer@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago (9 children)

This is another sign of how youtube's story of "we've never made a profit" is bogus. More and more organisations are advertising on youtube, youtube is pushing the limits on the amount of advertising that viewers can stand & at the same time they've started paying creators less.

It looks like they've really started abusing their market position in the last few years: more income and less expenditure. And it's probably no coincidence that there are no financial figures for youtube alone.

You gotta get a million views to earn a thousand bucks?!

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 41 points 2 months ago (6 children)

That has been true for a while. Ever since "the adpocalypse". I'm surprised you missed it because it felt like every YouTube creator was complaining about it for an entire year ( which I'm not really against, I just don't give a shit about YouTube inside baseball).

That's why every video now has " brought to you by... Whatever" in the middle of it.

Her name is crossed out in the post, but not her screenshots….

Weird.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 22 points 2 months ago

Also why we hiding the name of the YouTuber? Presumably they actually want people to find their content otherwise they wouldn't have uploaded it.

This self-censoring epidemic is getting stupid.

[–] utopiah@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

All you need to know in 1 visual, and yes that's monthly, not yearly :

Compare that to the average teacher in most countries, including countries like Finland or Luxembourg which pay their teachers quite well.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Is that an average/median OnlyFans creator, or one of the ones who are considered successful?

Edit: Oh, that's actually the creator from the post. TBH that seems like really intimate information, in a different way than whatever she's probably doing on OnlyFans.

[–] NGC2346@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

She's very suggestive in her choice of dress in most of these videos that are on her pornhub though, so there's that.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Oh I just checked her channel on yt and apparently she's an onlyfans creator now, so yeah.

Funny video title from her

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Are there any video essays on PornHub? Bonus if they're actual port with actual information.
