Gautam Kamath, assistant professor at the University of Waterloo in Canada, began sharing his 24-hour computer science video course on Bilibili, a popular Chinese video sharing platform embraced by young Chinese, on January 3.
加拿大滑铁卢大学助理教授Gautam Kamath于1月3日开始在Bilibili上分享他的24小时计算机科学视频课程，Bilibili是一个受中国年轻人欢迎的流行中文视频共享平台。
His account on the site quickly acquired more than 1,000 followers in just a few hours.
他在该网站上的帐户很快获得了超过在短短几个小时内吸引了1,000个关注者。
In the week following the upload, the number of followers to his account has increased tenfold as young users on Bilibili embraced Kamath and his courses with an open and grateful attitude.
上传后的一周，随着Bilibili上的年轻用户以开放和感激的态度拥抱Kamath和他的课程，他的帐户关注者数量增加了十倍。
Some young users, who are majoring in computer science, thanked the assistant professor in comments, noting that the videos have helped them sharpen their skills.
一些年轻的计算机科学专业用户对助理教授的评论表示感谢，并指出这些视频帮助他们提高了技能。
Although some messages under the videos were in Chinese and some in English, a friendly attitude and desire for knowledge shown from them all.
尽管视频下的一些信息是中文，有些是英语，但所有人都表现出友好的态度和对知识的渴望。
“I am lucky to have interacted with many very smart young Chinese people during my academic career so far, including many alumni of Tsinghua and Peking University. I currently work with one very talented Chinese undergrad at the University of Waterloo. All of these people are very smart, dedicated, creative, and hardworking. They place high value on education and knowledge, which I also consider to be very important,” Kamath told the Global Times.
“到目前为止，我很幸运能与许多非常聪明的中国年轻人互动，包括清华大学和北京大学的许多校友。我目前在滑铁卢大学与一位很有才华的中国本科生一起工作。所有这些人都很聪明，敬业，有创造力和勤奋。他们高度重视教育和知识，我认为这也非常重要。”卡马斯告诉《环球时报》。
The core of the course uploaded to Bilibili is differential privacy, which is a mathematically rigorous way of protecting individual privacy in data analysis, and has recently seen significant use in applications involving statistics and machine learning.
上传到Bilibili的课程的核心是差异隐私，这是在数据分析中保护个人隐私的数学严格方法，并且最近在涉及统计和机器学习的应用程序中得到了广泛使用。
Kamath admitted that the subject is complicated and difficult to understand. To best understand the material, one needs an understanding of algorithm design usually obtained from an undergraduate degree in computer science, as well as a good understanding and comfort with probability. But the most important requirement is maturity and self-motivation, he noted.
卡玛斯承认这个问题很复杂而且很难理解。为了最好地理解这些材料，人们需要了解通常从计算机科学本科学位获得的算法设计，以及对概率的理解和舒适度。但他指出，最重要的要求是成熟和自我激励。
The video course has received a total of 30,000 views as of Monday.
截至周一，该视频课程共获得30,000次观看。
Inspired by the trend toward online education amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Kamath decided to share his course on video platforms such as YouTube.
受COVID-19大流行期间在线教育趋势的启发，卡玛斯决定在YouTube等视频平台上分享他的课程。
However, he never thought about uploading to a Chinese site until he saw some videos from Ryan O'Donnell, a professor at the Carnegie Mellon University in US.
但是，直到他看到美国卡内基梅隆大学教授Ryan O'Donnell的一些视频后，他才考虑上传到中文网站。
O’Donnell had actually created a Bilibili account on January 3 as well, just slightly earlier than Kamath, and had also uploaded his course on computer science. O’Donnell told the Global Times that he wants to put more videos on the platform to see how things go.
实际上，O'Donnell也在1月3日创建了一个Bilibili帐户，比Kamath早一点，并且还上传了他的计算机科学课程。O'Donnell告诉《环球时报》，他想在平台上放更多视频，以了解事情的发展。
The two educators have promoted their videos on Bilibili on Twitter.
两位教育工作者已在Twitter上的Bilibili上宣传了他们的视频。
Language has posed somewhat of a barrier for Kamath as he says he is slowly learning Chinese using an app, though he says his current level is probably comparable to a 2-year old.
语言对Kamath构成了某种障碍，因为他说他正在使用应用程序慢慢学习汉语，尽管他说他目前的水平可能与2岁的孩子相当。
He seemed to have grasped some “code words” among users on the video site such as suzhi sanlian, which refers to giving a video a thumbs-up, donating virtual currency and buying more of this currency.
他似乎在视频网站的用户中掌握了一些“代码字”，例如suzhi sanlian，这是指给视频竖起大拇指，捐赠虚拟货币并购买更多这种货币。
