Amusingly, an hour into the video he complains about information being hidden behind hours of video. It would be a better paper, but apparently he hasn't written or put one out there. Probably a 20-30 minute read instead of 2.5 hours (or 1.25 since I'm running it at double speed).

To be fair, though, the video has an uncommonly high (by modern standards!) information density/signal-to-noise ratio—there's minimal filler, and it's very straightforward and to-the-point with regards to its subject matter!

13:45 -- "He's like, inheritance was like really powerful, but people just didn't know how to use it. Novices and experts apparently both couldn't use it, right. It was just uh you know, it's really good, but no one can figure out how to use it, I guess. Uh so that's a little bit weird."

I don't know if it matters to you, but the "video" is just a recording of a conference talk. It wasn't made with the sole intention of making a "video". I agree a text format version of the same information would be useful.

same difference? it just translates to "information being hidden behind hours of conference talks"?

isn't that arguably even worse? imagine the talk was not recorded, and the only way to learn this is to catch the speaker at a conference and listen to him talk?
