- mhitza 5y agoFor those that enjoyed the video you linked, Joe Armstrong's "The Mess We're In" talk could be interesting as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKXe3HUG2l4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKXe3HUG2l4
- amosj 5y agoI second this, this video is amazing. It had a big impact on my thinking the first time I saw it
- worldsayshi 5y agoI saw this years ago and it's really appealing. I still don't understand if the thesis here is true (are things really getting worse or are we just seeing software of the past through rose tinted glasses). But it feels like we could do things much better with better incentives and if we aligned our efforts much better across the industry. It feels like it could be a possible scenario that we otherwise end up in a situation where software in general become unmaintainable in practice.
- lentil_soup 5y agoIn a similar vein Casey Muratori's The Thirty Million Line Problem is also quite good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZRE7HIO3vk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZRE7HIO3vk He's also often collaborates with Jonathan Blow.
