Guido van Rossum revisits Python's life in a new documentary - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45055272 - August 2025

gabrielsroka•5mo ago
I love Python. I love documentaries. I love computing history. I did not love this.
HuwFulcher•5mo ago
Care to elaborate why?
blu3h4t•5mo ago
I love that channel and many documentaries on that channel, But when I translated this python video with yandex and reuoded it I called it python drama and Perl advertisement.
hnlurker22•5mo ago
Ofcourse there's drama. It's a documentary about real humans, not a lecture. What did you expect it to be, details on the interpreter implementation?
HuwFulcher•5mo ago
Fail to see how it was a Perl advert
toastercat•5mo ago
Yeah, there's something about Honeypot (or I guess CultRepo now) documentaries that rub me the wrong way. Sometimes it feels like an over-glorification of the subject matter, sometimes it's the slick editing and music choices that remind me of corny biopic films. I get that it's trying to be engaging to not just technical people though.

Weird. I made my comment here 4 days ago, but it says 19 hours ago. Maybe it's the second chance pool.

So I think the other one is a dupe of this one. Look at the ID numbers.

Thanks for sharing this.

Saw a preview of this at EuroPython. Best part was Guido's pragmatism on making Python more inclusive. Paraphrasing a bit from memory "It's a hard problem, but problems have solutions."
rbanffy•5mo ago
I really enjoyed seeing Guido traveling through time while answering a single question.
