  • 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.

      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.

At that moment I got introduced as the "Guy who wrote the zzz system". I was mostly shocked that they still had it running. It was written in vb4 using DCOM and MTS in the lat 90's. AFAIK it's still going.
