YouTube's content matching algorithm

I was wondering if I added some static or white noise to the audio of the video that YouTube muted, to reduce the sound quality, if that would let it get by the content-matching algorithm.

Then I found the following very interesting page, which documents the results of assorted detailed tests someone did to change the audio of an upload to see whether YouTube's algorithm would still identify it or not:

So just adding static or white noise probably would not work. But other changes might. Very interesting.

Pristiq

I'm going to ask my psych to write me a prescription for budeprion (the generic form of Wellbutrin). I'm interested in how that one will affect me, compared to the Pristiq and Lexapro. Also, based on my pharmacy plan, budeprion is a "step therapy" prerequisite for Pristiq. So even if I go back to Pristiq after trying the budeprion, I'll then have a lower copay for it than if I didn't try the prerequisite.

As for the Pristiq, I'm not sure what my opinion of it is. I've noticed 2 side-effects that concern me. One is that I feel my vision is a bit worse. I especially notice that at work. Glaucoma is one of the things to watch out for when taking Pristiq, and my family has a history of glaucoma. So having my vision be worse worries me.

The other side-effect is that it seems to interact badly with antihistamines; it makes me much more drowsy than when I take the antihistamine on its own. This happens even with loratadine syrup, which is supposed to be a non-drowsy antihistamine. When I took a dose of loratadine syrup last week, against one of the unexplained itchy swellings, I ended up feeling drowsy for 2 whole days.

I've had a few other side-effects, but they were temporary and not of much concern.

I definitely feel better on the Pristiq than I did on the Lexapro. But I'm not sure if I feel better than I did before taking either of them. I feel sort of hyper... like wanting to get a lot of things done. I'm finding it hard to just relax and not do anything. But that may have been the case before getting on the anti-depressants too. I'm not sure. My mood seems somewhat better. But maybe it is a coincidence; I'm not sure. I feel like I've been too busy to brood or be sad; not that I wouldn't still be sad if I took the time to just think about things. Maybe I want the Pristiq to be helping me. Maybe the thinking that I may be feeling better is the placebo effect.

Oh, and I did have one "good" dream recently, while on the Pristiq. One of those very rare ones, even though after waking up and thinking about the dream, it didn't seem as special as it did while dreaming it. But still, even having a dream like that is noteworthy.
