"Curiously recurring template pattern" is curiously recurring to be first place.
Then it got curiously deleted.
Why though?
@@thebottlewithoutalix2806 and having them appearing then deleting is a pattern for all these subjects.
it's is are you're that Zettex guyy
@@envi_ Yes, but who are you?
When u join an overfilled Agar.io Server

true
Anyone else just clicked the link and played a game and came back to the comments to see if anyone else did?
omg such nostalgia. this game is a masterpiece
expect the bubbles dont eat eachother
I love the way that facebook consistently stays at 100k. These are probably people trying to access facebook but instead landing on the wiki page for it.
It becomes pretty funny when you put it like that
Umut 200th liker
Pro_Tyle Everyone going away so fast after they become big for one second and Facebook is fine just being a bit small but chilling there the entire time
They could be using the wiki page to get to it, because there’s always a link in the infobox. I do that with websites sometimes when I’m not sure what the right url is and I don’t wanna end up on a fake one
Why the hell did "curiously recurring template pattern" maintain so many views for so long?!
JoelPhilosophy It curiously recurred.
I'm curious to know...
Pretty weird yeah, considering that article is boring as shit. Maybe the funny name ?
Probably a student using the pattern with bots to show it of or make a jone
It was recurring
I wonder what's so fascinating about the cat's anatomy.
Aaron Myers my guess was people were on it for anatomy classes as it peaked when Midterms and Finals for high school and college would be expected.
School.
Its similar bone structure to humans idk
@@edfilms9312 nope
@@dawlat-i-aliy-i-iran3328 feline and canine anatomy is surprisingly similar to a humans, i mean, all mammals,
Also stop it with the uwu/owo channels, You must be a furry to make them,ree
I think the reason that people mysteriously search famous scientists and philosophers for one day and then the bubble dissapears is because google will have those themed search engines on their birthdays or whatever for example on shakespears birthday google will have a little theater animation above its search bar and everyone will search that for a day and then its gone the next day
Yea
Yea
That makes sense, but does the data agree?
asking the real questions here
You mean Doodles?
Why were so many people searching for curiously recurring template pattern??
LimeGreenTeknii Would like to know that as well!
and why did they stop on 19 Jan 2013?
I'm willing to bet that someone wrote a bot using a curiously recurring template pattern to look it up. Sounds like a college CS student thing.
Wow James Bell that actually makes a lot of sense
College was starting, computer science is a popular major, and that's a basic concept of object-oriented languages. Their assignment probably said to talk about what it was without telling them where to find out what it was.
420 was most viewed on 4/20, which was exactly at 4:20 in this video
Holy fucknugget shit
Wow lol
OMG what a coincidence!
spooky coincidences
*Hey guys, micheal here from Vsauce*

What the hell happened on Feb. 27th.
People had the hots for J. Law that day
joey pigott no, that didn't happen in 2013. Because of Hunger Games, J law was super popular back then.

odd how an article about C++ was #1 for a bit. not a celebrity or an event, but a thing in C++.
India.
I think its India
because they have like 1 billion people
and they're obsessed with programming
@@A0pplePapple At the time India didn't have as many internet users, so I doubt it.
Only recently (idk what year) did CZcams rise in popularity in India. Back in 2013 there weren’t that many, but in 2024 that number is BIG
these should be renderred in 4k so those with screens can enjoy reading smaller bubbles
but what about those without screens?
@@izzrainy7410 go outside and blow the bubbles and write on them yourself
What's the problem with "Cat Anatomy" ?!
Maybe the penile spines?
Furries.
cause cat
Buncha bio high school kids probably started their cat dissection unit lol
WE HAVE TO KNOW IF YAHOO'S STREAK CONTINUES!!! DON'T LEAVE US HANGING LIKE THAT!!!

jaaha
Spoiler alert:Yahoo is no longer a thing
I still can't belive the letter "G" got in the top 10 for a day.

We were so close to that fisting photo so close
Apparently, people in the first half of 2013 were obsessed by cat anatomy. Did anyone else notice that?
they have spikey dicks
Weird how Cat Anatomy was almost always in the top 10.. And I disagree with M3w2, I think this is great data to do this with, loved the video!
This video got me on a 3 hour long Wikipedia marathon... lol
Lol same.
So odd that the List of HTTP Status Codes was in the top 10 so much... odd because I have that page open RIGHT NOW and I refer to it a lot when I am developing! I guess that explains that...
This was quite an interesting video! Didn't expect cat anatomy to secure a place in top ten for March and most of May+June either!
sc9849 aw
My suggestion for your next video is: CZcamsrs (from all times)
More subs = bigger bubble
Just a CZcamsr I wonder if this video was ever made? (Hint hint)
@@TheUKNutter he made one for growth
4:31 Look who is 4th
Even better: Look the charts on Feb 27, 2013

haggis: 1.2mil searches, 1st place
*a few seconds later*
haggis:
27th February *facepalm*
Buggy Grapi Yeah
Wondering if there was a certain connection between Jennifer Lawrence and those other most viewed articles..........
people get pretty dirty. they like the sport of it all.
2:20 that was a weird day
I woild regularly tune into dedicated webseries looking at the top pages of any given day and providing a historical and cultural exploration of why these pages became so popular. I think it'd be very insightful and could learn quite a bit from it.
I imagine most of these #1's are just whatever happened to be the day's featured article.
2:19 is the funniest thing hahahaha
Joseph Pahl nicki minaj or jennifer lawrence?
Joseph Pahl jennifer lawrence... fisting
altho. nicki minaj and duck dynasty
Interesting how Facebook was pretty much a constant in the top ten.
Why is it that for one day everyone wanted to know about IEEE 1284
I love your videos!
5:24 Why did Haggis top Eurovision
RIP
Scotland is invading
Not as interesting because we mostly don't know the context and it's not consistent enough (obviously not your fault). But these data feel almost random and hat makes it less interesting. Otherwise, I love the concept of this channel, it's very novel so I think you will do well on the future.
Tl,dr: find better data
M3w2 ᅚᅚ Yeah, that was a concern, and I also could've put some explanations in the video to make it more understandable. For example, Dumpster/Durian/Diaper/Waffle jumped on April 1, 2013 because Google "released" them as scents for Google Nose, an April Fool's prank. And Mastectomy rose to first on May 14 because Angelina Jolie got one.
Abacaba CZcamsrs next, more subs = bigger bubble
+Shruk Could be easily boring... The Top 3 hasn't changed since a few years i think.
marco_rennmaus you jelly because I would be first
In 20 years, some kid watching this for a history project gonna be like
WTF WAS THE HARLEM SHAKE?!?!
Yahoo had the biggest streak then
Ah yes, I get it 5 years later in my recommended.
calm down cat anatomy!
I can explain why the "Cult" article got so many views that year, I was doing research for a story I'm writing.
That, and the 20th anniversary of the Waco Siege.
I like how the it's 4:20 in the video when it's April 20th with the most searched video on the day being about 420. LOL
Pidpie OH MY GOD YOU'RE RIGHT
If I had to guess, I'd say there were a lot of people taking bio classes in spring 2013. That's the only reason I can think of for cat anatomy being so popular the whole time and then just vanishing mid-June.
Okay maybe im late, but that outro was smooth asfuck
So much cat anatomy and whatever a Ernst Liffass is..
idk, but there are "litfas säulen" in germany, big concrete pillars with advertisement on them. they might have another pupose too (which i dont know about).

4th Feb 2013 - The day everyone used wikipedia for some unknown reason :P

I wonder what people found so interesting about curiously reoccurring template pattern
I like how everyone is studying for their exams and it clearly shows.
Very happy to see Douglas Adams and Leonhard Euler reach the top spot.

What is "curiously recurring template pattern?"
The *curiously recurring template pattern* (CRTP) is an idiom in C++ in which a class X derives from a class template instantiation using X itself as template argument. More generally it is known as F-bound polymorphism, and it is a form of F-bounded quantification.
I like how you asked when you could have just went to Wiki for the answer *Wink Wiki*
@@ras662 you. . . copied off of wikipedia

Annette Funicello died the same day as Margaret Thatcher, so it was nice to see that people viewed both their pages after that.

I like how "Boat" is just always there.

Why were so many people searching haggis all at once?
