I'm a lurker, sorry for that.

Thanks. I did finish Yandex's school of data science (2015-2018). I've been to Moscow in 2018 for their graduation ceremony.

Edit: My remark about me visiting Moscow is to demonstrate that I did not harbor any anti-Russia sentiments.

No need to apologize for being a lurker!

The explanation that you found it and uploaded it makes perfect sense and clarifies things for me anyway.

Similar to GP, I read your post as though that Youtube video was the initial source, rather than something you uploaded.

That's my old gmail account that I've since abandoned because I moved to [email protected] (my first name @ my last name). My google apps account (znovyak.com) doesn't have youtube enabled, so I uploaded this to youtube channel associated with my old (since high school) gmail.
