• This forum is specifically for the discussion of factual science and technology. When the topic moves to speculation, then it needs to also move to the parent forum, Science Fiction and Fantasy (SF/F).

    If the topic of a discussion becomes political, even remotely so, then it immediately does no longer belong here. Failure to comply with these simple and reasonable guidelines will result in one of the following.
    1. the thread will be moved to the appropriate forum
    2. the thread will be closed to further posts.
    3. the thread will remain, but the posts that deviate from the topic will be relocated or deleted.
    Thank you for understanding.​

Those TED talks are great, I've seen many of those videos over the last year or so.

On a similar theme is the Long Now Foundation, which (among other things) has monthly talks by various notables, available for free as mp3's. Scroll down and click on "All seminar audio is available for Download & Podcast" to listen.
