Why is the first 2:19 of this video here?

The first 2:19 of this video discusses Booleans and the isset() function. Hampton then says "meet me in workspaces and we'll look at some more examples of Booleans". The video cuts to workspaces, and then we're suddenly talking about Constants... Seems like a bad edit.

I totally agree. Side-note: The subtitles are talking about constants from the very beginning of the video so the video doesn't sync with the subtitles either.

It's the reverse of the previous video -- editing was done AFTER the subtitles/captions/transcript.

Previous lesson had edited out video that still showed up in the textual version; this lesson edited out a chunk of text without removing the related video.

Both of these lead to a 2-minute discrepancy between the video and the accompanying text (captions/transcript).

WAIT!!!!! I figured it out!!! The video that was excised from the previous lesson (on Strings & Booleans) is what shows up here at the beginning of Constants. So, between the two videos, everything lines up ..... just not where it's supposed to. :-/
