Ask HN: What's your favorite tech talk from the past year?

My favorite talk was the one I gave at OLF: Syslog for Fun (and Profit?)

A bunch of great talks at Strange Loop this year! Two off the top of my head:

• "An approach to computing and sustainability inspired from permaculture" by Devine Lu Linvega: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3u7bGgVspM

• "The Economics of Programming Languages" by Evan Czaplicki (Strange Loop 2023): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZ3w_jec1v8

I've also been loving TodePond's cellular automata videos. Their SPLASH talk was mind-blowing, but it doesn't look like it's out yet.
