Bit late to be announcing this, isn't it?
Have you watched it? Any highlights?
It's late, but I bet it'll be on YouTube.
I really can't stand watching talks online myself, or videos, but this subject is all the rage so I thought someone might be interested.
If I watched a talk I didn't absolutely have to, this would be the one.
(I'm helping run the UCR colloquia so I have to watch those talks, and I'm teaching 3 courses at UCR so I have to watch those.)
