I love how that issue has all these other articles that have hidden gems of insight of things that, with the benefit of hindsight, would have been good to have taken note of. Including gems on Lisp, on the philosophy of designing software for unix and to make things small and testable as soon as possible. How things like structured programming had a lot of fluff talk around it that obscured the tiny gems of good ideas, that people got carried away with the "process".
