Linus's talk is on there twice. If you add up the view counts, it should be much higher.

#13Really surprised at the lack of “big” names on the list. My gut reaction was “really, no PyCon?” But when I went to the PyCon channel, even the keynotes from last year barely cracked a thousand views.
There is nothing interesting going on at pycon, usually. Most language-specific conferences tend to be pretty boring imho.

#14Wish Jon Blow would get back out there! He was asked on a recent stream and said he has turned down invites while trying to get Jai pushed out the door.

#15this is a list from their videos, not all videos. There's plenty of software engineering videos with 5x or 10x more views
Here's 850k views https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SO83KQuuZvg
look up "how to build and LLM" and your find plenty of videos with more than a million views from 2024

#16Earlier quoted context omitted.
No, there's content from lots of different conferences (though, GOTO is there a lot -- maybe a good indicator of quality?)
popularity ≠ quality
for a Mr. Beast video, maybe that's true, but for a specific audience like "Developer Conference Talk" probably a decent proxy

I really want to learn his methodology to writing software
