Just saw "wat" talk (https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat) linked in another HN thread. Thought this was somebody trying to climb the ladder using that vid. Amazing how the mind works. That talk is so great that this word is now a reserved keyword for me for the rest of my life I fear.
Still not disappointed to browse this github for a bit.
- outime 8y agoI believe a better title is easily achievable e.g. “Show HN: An interactive breakpoint Python library” to avoid confusion (I also thought about that talk).
- throwaway0255 8y agoI think you may be right, because I had the same exact thought, and I haven’t watched the wat video in a couple years. Great video, especially for anyone new to dynamic typing.
- lathiat 8y agoIf you loved that video, try this great Perl presentation from Netanel Rubin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noQcWra6sbU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noQcWra6sbU And it's follow-up cousin "The Camel Strikes Back" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYl3-c2JSL8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYl3-c2JSL8 (He says wat alot and it's hilarious)
