I love how this video periodically gets recommended to us when the title is exactly right
it did to me as well
@@samuelboczek1834 same

It mainly has to do with the title changing
The algorithm does that whenever parts of a video change, whether it be the title or the thumbnail
It did it to me aswell
I love how this vid appears on my recommend every once in a while.

Fun fact: This title is probably the most refreshed title in all of UA-cam

It has to be, because otherwise if a video was uploaded at the beginning of youtube the title would need to be updated about 7000 times a day

"The code was never the important part"
Sounds like the pivotal part in a film where the protagonist has a deep realization.
Sounds like "I am always angry" but in matrix.
Wow stole my comment
The real code was inside us all along...

The real matrix was the friends we made along the way
