Example:
Let me just write a function I know you've seen before and it's actually charmingly simple for us to go out because this is all very difficult compared to what I'm about to write.
Specifically, I don't understand what for us to go out means.
He kind of mumbles at that point, but it may be that he's saying
It's charmingly simple for us to go on
The phrase "to go on" would mean "to preceed with".
I was hoping the closed captions would help, but those look like they were generated by speech recognition software; it's horribly wrong.
The guy stumbles a lot in his pronunciation (listen to ~46:26 eg). It could be that he intends to say "...go on", as Gabriel suggests, and that his tongue and his brain don't cooperate, perhaps because of other things or words (maybe write, which is both a word he says 2+ times and action he is thinking he has to perform); or he means "...go out", in which case I've no idea what he means, unless he wants this topic to be the one that class "goes out" (concludes) with.
