If you found this essay interesting, you owe it to yourself to check out this super entertaining talk "Plain Text"[0] from NDC 2022 by Dylan Beattie. Rabbit hole warning: This video caused me to lose an entire Sunday watching Dylan's talks on YouTube, which are uniformly awesome.

- WaffleIronMaker 3y agoI also really enjoy Dylan Beattie's work. For those with some spare time, who might like to see a true "rockstar" programmer, you may like "The Art of Code"[0]. [0] https://youtu.be/6avJHaC3C2U https://youtu.be/6avJHaC3C2U
- spudlyo 3y agoAnother good talk! I also really loved "Email vs Capitalism, or, Why We Can't Have Nice Things"[0] which has one of the best audience participation gimmicks I have ever seen in a talk. [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrGfahzt-4Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrGfahzt-4Q
- aidos 3y agoOh wow. The Amstrad 6128 was my first machine (1985). Looking forward to watching this!
