I thought it might be interesting to compile a list of interesting tech talks. Are there any talks you’ve seen that you would recommend? Or any tech talks that you want to watch?
In the meantime, if you’re looking for something to watch, here are a few ideas for places to look:
I haven’t watched them, but all the SFHTML5 presentations are listed here. Tonight’s talk will be uploaded later. (Apache OpenWhisk – it looks like software for self-hosted “serverless” cloud functions)
Developing your own talks is a good way of practicing the elevator-pitch proposal style seen when wooing investors. You need to describe in a concise fashion what’s to be discussed usually in problem/solution/detail format.
This is a nice general audience talk on the use of Python in the sciences. All the astronomy fun facts given in the first 13-14 minutes are especially cool.
