In plain English

This repository is a curated list of programming talks, maintained by a single developer. The list is split into two main sections: talks specific to individual programming languages, and a more general section on software architecture and design theory. The languages covered span a wide range, from common ones like C, Python, JavaScript, and Ruby to more specialized ones like Clojure, Erlang, Haskell, and APL. Most of the linked talks point to YouTube videos. A few are marked to indicate they can be followed as audio without the video. The list does not host any of the talks itself. The maintainer includes a short section highlighting speakers they recommend, giving brief descriptions of what makes each one worth watching. Names mentioned include Rich Hickey (Clojure), David Beazley (Python), Joe Armstrong (Erlang), and Scott Meyers (C++). The README is very long and consists mostly of talk titles with links. Contributions from others are welcome, and the project includes guidelines for submitting additions. The repository is written mostly in Python, likely for tooling around the list itself rather than being a Python project in the traditional sense. The full README is longer than what was shown.
