Now that upskirt has been ported to Go as a library, it's also 5 lines.
BTW: if people want to do markdown in Go, the library to use is https://github.com/russross/blackfriday. It's a different one that the code I ported but Russ Ross did exactly the same thing at almost exactly the same time and was a little bit ahead, so after I discovered his work, I decided to contribute to his code instead of maintaining my own, almost identical, project.

But you really would get better results for video. Just using some round numbers from QR codes for an example, 33 px * 33 px * 15 Hz = 16 kbit, which is much more even allowing for the metadata overhead and an error-correcting protocol.
My point is that if you decide early on that you are bad at something you probably won't spend time on whatever that is and you'll have very little chance of getting better at it. And then you'll just conclude that you've always been bad at that thing and that it's a fact. I like to have the power to decide what I'm good at.
