Unfortunately there is no way I can persuade you to watch this by quoting a particularly amusing moment, because there are so many particularly amusing moments that I can’t possibly choose one.

@robinhouston Some good points there :-) I ended up adding https to my home-brew http: server, even though I'm pretty much the only human who uses it, because my own browsers kept nagging me. I can't imagine I'll ever use what I learned again (using SSL in C89!) so it's almost time down the drain.
