- The title of this video should change with the times. But nothing lasts forever: here's the story of how I made it work, why it used to be easier to make that work, and how it all ties in to the White Cliffs of Dover and the end of the universe.

I just wasn't expecting something so deep and philosophical, you're a mad lad.

I wonder if this is one of those videos where TH-cam themselves customized it to display a specific way? Like that Numberphile video about why TH-cam views stop at 301. And it seems like there's another one but I can't think of it off the top of my head.
Eventually, TH-cam will break. Now, that's a wild thought!
I'm watching this. And I'm noticing. This means something more than just code.

"The title of this video won't be exactly right"
I'm convinced TH-cam just operates on pure spite, because it's been exactly right for over a year now
It baffles me how seemingly no one seems to understand what Scott meant by saying that. The title is simply identical to the youtube's own viewcount, which doesn't keep track of views in real time, only every minute or so. Which means it isn't accurate, and therefore neither is the title.
