I know a two-and-a-half hour video is a hard sell for most people, but I found this talk to be absolutely fascinating. It's not yet another tired “let's all shit on OOP just for the sake of it”-type thing—instead, it's basically nothing but solid historical information (presented with evidence!) as to how “OOP”, as we now know it, came to be. The specific context in which these various decisions were made is something that nobody ever cares to teach, such that it's basically long-since forgotten today—yet here it is, in an easily-digestible format!
Jtsummers•46m ago
Amusingly, an hour into the video he complains about information being hidden behind hours of video. It would be a better paper, but apparently he hasn't written or put one out there. Probably a 20-30 minute read instead of 2.5 hours (or 1.25 since I'm running it at double speed).
adamrezich•39m ago
To be fair, though, the video has an uncommonly high (by modern standards!) information density/signal-to-noise ratio—there's minimal filler, and it's very straightforward and to-the-point with regards to its subject matter!
