He's serious. If you post them all at once, then each video
gets minimal
impact. A lot of people will look at one, maybe two, and then
not bother with
the rest, because all of them showed up at once, whereas if
they're posted
over a longer period of time, then each video will have larger
a impact,
because it'll be showing up by itself, and it increases the
chances of more
casual people viewing it.
Yes. This sucks for those who didn't get the chance to go to
the conference
and who will definitely view all of them regardless of how
quickly they're
released, but it produces better PR for the language this way.
We'll keep
getting new posts on reddit or wherever over a period of
several weeks as
opposed to it being more of a blip on people's radar and then
gone.

If there is such a long delay all that will happen is that people
will forget/lose interest and stop watching the talks.
It makes much more sense to release one each day or couple of
days both to keep people interested and to avoid irritating
everyone...
