Ask HN: Your favorite TED Talks to help me prep for mine
Hi everyone! I've been selected to give a TEDx talk about the gender gap in technology and about how I, while working with a nonprofit, am working on closing this gender gap. Please help me by: 1. Sharing your favorite TED talks 2. Sharing your least favorite TED talks, or ones that weren't done in the best way. 3. Sharing any research/resources you might have for information about the tech gender gap, or any books you might recommend I read!

- 7ruth 8y agoWhen ratings column was there, as far as I remember this was the higher rated talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity?language=en https://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_cre... And the lowest rated one, I cant find it, but the presenter made a put with word "shit" in it or something like that and kept repeating to get a few more laughs out of the crowd, but he kept doing it (4-5 times in a span of 4 min), he stopped when Chris Andreson lost it and spoke up from the audience saying he won't ever present on that stage again.
