Yeah I think TED talks are usually way too shallow. Videos in general really.. And they're generally pretty slow to make sure even the slowest person in the audience can keep up so it's pretty frustrating. I prefer written content over video most of the time.

The only kind of presentations I like are the ones at hacker conferences. They tend to be for a highly technical audience and very non-commercial. Just about the tech, not trying to sell anything.

You can find recordings on https://media.ccc.de for example. They have a lot of German content but most of the event presentations are in English.

Sure, technical conferences are another beast entirely (I also enjoy many things at linux.conf.au, including the accent that many of the speakers have for obvious reasons).

Although most conferences are about as shallow as TED talks. TED's been portrayed to me as some kind of a revelation, that's why I'm asking. Maybe they just got worse with time, like almost anything tends to do.
