#3Off-topic, but I'm always looking for hour long talks/videos to put on while I'm cooking and I can't sit at a computer, or my hands are too dirt to finger a book. Thanks HN for giving me good content! I maintain a list of these and they come up sufficiently often enough that I always have something to watch when I have to cook.

Would you mind sharing your list? I like to have a good talk in the background when I work.

I've been doing a HN search for youtube|vimeo|video as a poor man's version of HackerNewsTV for years. Basically with the same goal: having something to watch while cooking, eating, for siesta or to help me sleep at night
But I'd love a better UI to that data (hint to HN team)

Videos from software conferences are excellent for this job.
