Do you have access to the video of his presentation still?

It bothers me greatly that they paywall their presentations even after the conference has ended.

By all means have exclusivity for the duration of the actual conference, and limit commenting and discussion to conference attendees. But as soon as the conference ends they should flip the switch and make everything public. There's literally no reason not to, it isn't going to stop people wanting to attend.

This 10x, I wish the paper presentations and keynotes were made available online. It doesn't add much effort to record an audio + slides of the presentation.

Doesn't take anything away from the in person conference, which is more about networking and discussion.

I was also frustrated about that, but I went on the website and it looks like they're gonna publish them all in a couple weeks. Still a bit frustrated at the delay, but it's a bit understandable.
