Ask HN: Do you know who this person is?
I'd like to see this talk again.
The problem is that I can't remember anything about the person in question and I can't remember the title of the video.
All I remember is that the talk was about being quite cautious about using technology we don't understand (Quite a lot of emphasis was on machine learning) and the speaker was actually quite funny.
The talk was on one of these coding conferences. Don't remember which one, obviously.
The speaker in question has a homepage on a university website (I think it was a university in the US north-east but I'm not sure) and was actually really funny. He also had other talks he had made.
I've been tearing my hair out here - even spending a few hours scrolling through my Youtube history.
Do you know who I'm talking about?
