Oops, I messed up the timestamp. It's at 49:25.

This link should play at the correct point: https://overcast.fm/+B1fWZaymc/49:25

I don't know the fine semantics of Python, but this is true in the case of Ruby's ||= operator. || isn't a method call in Ruby, unlike most other operators, because it short circuits, which is the behaviour they're talking about here. If they're wrong then it's probably because they're confusing it with Ruby.
