I second that. So far every talk by Dave Abrahams has been entertaining and insightful to me.

I'm watching the talk now, the way the speaker describes the things he does seems to me like hes making fun of the Silicon Valley type lifestyle. I think the talk is really great and funny, thank you for sharing !

He's satirizing the rigid and dismissive Gilfoyle type of person (HBO Silicon Valley character) while also exploring what app developers can learn from them.

Do you mean Crusty, because in my Opinion with the character he is portraying he is satirizing the typical health "crazed" silicon valley developer, is he not ?
If you haven't seen it, check out the 2018 WWDC session "Embracing Algorithms" (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2018/223/). It's worth watching, even if you don't work with Swift.
