AWS one I removed was 3 years old and needed updating. Added new neural net course as well.

For youtube, we prefer "playlist" links and the name of the producer/creator. docs/CONTRIBUTING.md#platforms-and-access-notes
This is a 14 minute video and does not meet our requirement for a "course".

This is 14 hours.
Would it count as a course then?

Sir, the first time course is mentioned in the CONTRIBUTING, it says

A course is a learning material which is not a book.

After that, it says the following

YouTube videos. We usually don't link to individual YouTube videos unless they are more than an hour long and are structured like a course or a tutorial. If this is the case, be sure to make a note of it in the PR description.

Then, the last time course is mentioned, it says:

Courses often have associated textbooks, which we would list in our books lists. Courses have lectures, exercises, tests, notes or other didactic aids. A single lecture or video by itself is not a course. A PowerPoint is not a course.

I seriously am missing how this video I linked to doesn't count as a course.
It is:

  1. Not a book
  2. Longer than an hour, on YouTube, separated into different sections
  3. Not a single lecture, because there are clear breaks in the structure.

Sir, please help me understand how I'm wrong.

Sorry, I think the lead-in ad fooled me on the timing.
