Great talk, I always love your talks that go very far afield to make points about software development. Only note - when given the choice of writing a function that takes a path to a file or a file object, choose the third option - just return the data instead. I am happy to call open and write myself, if it means I don't have to call io.TextIO to get the output as a string :D
Very small correction that WGS84 is not a "geoid" but is an "oblate ellipsoid". The geoid is an equipotential surface of the earth's gravity potential that best fits the oceans at rest.

Very entertaining and educational. Pity so few have watched.
