- 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 have been checking this video every so often and as of right now it is still EXACT

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

This is turning out to be way more accurate than Tom expected
I'd imagine the views presented by the RUclips API are what are also used to show end users. All of the view fudging and aggregation will happen in the background before it's presented anywhere.

Outside it’s exactly the title
it´s perfect for me
"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.
