Some googletech-talk links
The first one is a talk given by a SETI-Guy. Interesting talk, but I’m not sharing his optimism: When Will We Discover the Extraterrestrials?
The second one is a talk about Intels memory model. This memory-model is very important for guaranteeing the type-safety and synchronization of height-level-languages such as Java and C#. IA Memory Ordering.
Edit: I’ve previously posted a talk about the Java Memory Model, but the video doesn’t exit anymore. =(
Second Edit: Found a replacement for the Java Memory Model Talk.
