Veritasium started out as a physics channel, and they've covered a wide variety of physics, math and science topics. They are never afraid of showing you the math, but one of the things I think they are really good at is not losing the human part of the story even if you can't follow the numbers exactly. At the end of the day it's humans who came up with this stuff in the first place, so it must be possible to understand it.

They aren't really a technology channel though, at least as it relates to software/computers, so that's probably why the video starts out with a brief history of Linux.
