I think engineers would enjoy the description of how microwave ovens work and why 1:17 was selected as the coffeemaker's auto shut-off time.

Those videos were great! The guy actually selected 1 hour 17 min. as a auto shut off time because he felt it was absurd for a coffee machine to have such precise settings for shut off - so he chose a number to take advantage of the feature (to show nerd solidarity).  |
