Also, at about 2:40: "And I have experienced a deathbed conversion. I recently bought a Macintosh." Interesting given the context in which this article was posted on HN.
Also, about 5min in is a great example of how to correctly "break the rules".
Suffice it to say that for academic interest, it's worth becoming familiar with the difference between endocrine (e.g., islet cell [Jobs]) and exocrine (e.g. pancreatic adenocarcinoma [Pausch]) cancers because their prognoses differ wildly.
