Some videos

I haven't posted videos in a while, mostly because I haven't been watching them. So, here are a few from people I am impressed by:

Daniel Gilbert giving a talk for TED:



He is a happiness researcher at Harvard who has contributed a lot to my world view




xkcd founder giving a talk at google:

This is just impressive because he is a member of my demographic group: pasty white guys.


I haven't watched this one yet, but Rames Randi is one of my heros:

He is a magician, and one of the best people alive at seeing through bullshit. A shame he is almost 80, the world always needs someone like him around.
