This tweet has not aged well:

"sometimes instead of finding and learning how to use a chisel, you turn to the hammer you’re already holding"

The tweets were in relation to: Complex Fibonacci Numbers?

CORRECTIONS

- At 03:23 I say "36,536" when the correct number of rows in an .xls file is "65,536". The on-screen number is correct!

- at 06:13 and again at 10:04 I say "National Health England" instead of the correct "Public Health England". I have no idea why my brain did that. I think it merged NHS with PHE.

Thanks to my Patreons who mean I can make a whole fake news network at short notice (that's a fake news-network, not a fake-news network). If you join their ranks I can make even more videos! https://www.patreon.com/standupmaths

As always: thanks to Jane Street who support my channel. They're amazing.
