Are they available on YouTube?
I don't believe so. The author self distributes them through his website. Access to all of the videos for a flat monthly fee.

#62I sub to these three: computerphile: https://www.youtube.com/user/computerphile leveluptuts: https://www.youtube.com/user/leveluptuts google chrome developers: https://www.youtube.com/user/ChromeDevelopers
computerphile isn't really for developers. It's for non-developers to get a glimpse into the world of developers. Everything they explain there is extremely elementary. However, I quite enjoy Bradey's other channels (numberphile, and sixty symbols) as I am not a professional in physics or math.
This is true for the most part but there are some videos which are interesting still, like the interviews with Brian Kernighan.
Below are said videos in the order they were published. I don't remember but I think parts of one video might be duplicate from one of the other videos.
These videos are for historical perspective, not for learning, so depending on what you are looking for these might or might not be for you. I think most users of Linux, FreeBSD and other Unix family operating systems will enjoy watching them.

Hence why they haven't been mentioned. So, does each "Season" require a subscription? That's how that page makes it look. Even if not, a subscription model for static content is a horrible deal.
Nope, all content is available for the one subscription fee.
> Even if not, a subscription model for static content is a horrible deal.
I think it depends on the quality of the content. Not that I'd advocate it, but I don't think there is anything stopping you from paying a one month subscription fee and ripping all of the content from the site either.
I tend to think of it as a donation similar to tipping someone on Twitch. If I'm getting value out of it, which I am, I want him to keep creating content. And I can stop donating whenever I want.

#65Coding Math (https://www.youtube.com/user/codingmath): covers all the math you need for games and each ep. have code examples.
Bisqwit (https://www.youtube.com/user/Bisqwit): c++, emulators and other cool stuff even his setup is interesting(dosbox+his own editor).
ThinMatrix (https://www.youtube.com/user/ThinMatrix): his videos on VAO and VBO were a savior for me when learning opengl.
Daniel Shiffman (https://www.youtube.com/user/shiffman/): his videos are quite beginner friendly explains whole process of creating classic games like snake or creating art with code like fractal trees.
Vittorio Romeo: (https://www.youtube.com/user/SuperVictorius): walks you thru all modern c++ features by creating a game with them.

#67Not so much programming techniques or best-practices, but I've really enjoyed watching Computer Science and Math-related lectures on MIT Opencourseware's channel. I highly recommend that one. If you're trying to re-learn math (and probably going the Khan Academy route) then I highly recommend checking out PatrickJMT's channel. He produces simple, but excellent mathematical videos in a style similar to tutoring (which…

His series on C# is best I have seen. He also covers other topics and is very good teacher, lot of examples and is not afraid to go low level to explain things.
