+<p>I've recently started working on a new series on my Odysee channel which aims
+to explain some very basic C/C++ code optimizations at an assembly
+level.<sup><a href="#r1" >[1]</a></sup> I explore different keywords and good
+programming habits in C++ and explain why they can lead to more optimized code
+using the resulting assembly code. Basically, I compile the C++ code and then I
+disassemble it using a tool like <code>objdump</code>.</p>
+
+<p>My main reason for making this series is that I find that many programmers
+don't actually know what they're doing when they program. They write code simply
+trying to get it done, but they're never disciplined in good programming habits
+in their language. This is a shame considering that many of these simple habits
+can greatly improve the efficiency of the output.</p>
+
+<p>As for why I'm using the dreaded video format instead of text the reason is
+quite simple: I'm lazy. Writing all that up takes a lot of time and effort, and
+this isn't exactly a programming tutorial, but rather an explanation/exposition.
+So I don't mind the format all that much.</p>
+
+<p>I hope this is useful.</p>
