While I applaud the passion in this article the issue is so old that people just roll their eyes and move on. We the people who actually use the language just have to keep chugging.

I think this is a rant / a perspective everyone needs to hear once. It might be old hat and boring to people who've been programming for decades, but so long as we keep creating new programmers, we'll unfortunately need to keep reiterating this lesson.
