today we talk about the UTF family of encodings and the BOM -- and why you probably don't want it and shouldn't need it!

Nice video! Interesting anecdote, I almost lost a huge chunk of a grade for a uni programming assignment because the test data was a CSV that they'd saved with Excel with a BOM at the start. My code, which was tested using data they'd provided to us _without_ a BOM, started inexplicably failing on the prof's full test data. Thankfully I managed to meet with him in person and cleared things up to get that grade back!

BOM is  when your editors and (default) locale sucks.
