TED India 2009: Crap of our Forefathers
special thanks to Aron Bothman and Nina Paley for the illustrations!
This is my talk from TED India 2009 - I really can’t describe how fun this was to perform for an Indian audience. I just recorded it again, so that I could put it online (since TED apparently doesn’t think this is an “idea worth sharing” and hasn’t posted it…I guess I generally agree that third-world poverty and the future of computing should take priority).
I don’t have any pictures of me giving this talk, but here is one of me doing the closing session, where I got to make fun of the TED speakers and Infosys.

And really, who finds such slimness attractive? At best I’d imagine it’s a niche taste. If I was ever to spend quality time with someone so slim, I’d want to feed her, not do naughty-naughty. This is one fad that totally befuddles me.
