Here are some playlists (not what OP requested): cryptography lectures https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgO7JBj821uGZTXEXBLck... Dan Boneh cryptography lectures https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9oqNDMzcMClAPkwrn5dm... machine learning lectures https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgO7JBj821uGo_Up8MA7A... theoretical computer science lectures https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgO7JBj821uGo_Up8MA7A.…

Can you fix the link for the theoretical CS? Currently links to the ML playlist.

Edit: maybe you meant this one: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgO7JBj821uHJM__IpdPT...

https://www.youtube.com/bisqwit is by far my favorite and I've spent many hours watching him. He does things like create a Doom-style engine from scratch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQYsFshbkYw .. create a NES emulator: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y71lli8MS8s .. work back from a C++17 example to show why new C++ standards are needed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrwwa68JXNk .. and even building a Tetris c…

Glad my channel has helped you guys. I quit my job at Twilio to do this full-time. I'm on a warpath to educate and inspire the shit out of everyone. Human readable link: https://www.youtube.com/c/sirajology (I am Siraj, hi everyone)

I have enjoyed watching video recordings of talks from various conferences. Here are some of them off the top of my head. Defcon (computer security) - https://www.youtube.com/user/DEFCONConference/playlists PyCon 2016 (Python) - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwTD5zJbsQGJN75MwbykYNw/vid... PyCon 2015 (Python) - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgxzjK6GuOHVKR_08TT4hJQ/vid... PyCon 2014 (Python) - https://www.youtube…

I have to say that I had no use for YouTube until I realized that these kind of talks were on there. In addition to what you mentioned, some I like:

The Gruqg on OpSec: https://youtu.be/9XaYdCdwiWU

Russ Cox's ACME tutorial: https://youtu.be/dP1xVpMPn8M

These are not in any particular order and I do not watch every single video on their feeds, just the ones that are relevant or seem interesting. ChromeDevelopers: https://www.youtube.com/user/ChromeDevelopers LevelUpTuts: https://www.youtube.com/user/LevelUpTuts Strange Loop: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_QIfHvN9auy2CoOdSfMWDw Computerphile: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9-y-6csu5WGm29I7JiwpnA funfunfunction…

funfunfunction is great! MPJ's attitude and personality is the best part because he tries to keep you from getting overwhelmed and/or burnt out.

I feel bad about fff because I really can't stand MPJ's humor or style of presentation but I know he's a great teacher. One day I'll get over it, but for now I'm just glad he's there to help!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

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

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.

Considering he's been doing it for more (?) than six years, it looks like it has turned out well. It's very high quality.
