Made me chuckle. Especially "'look, it's all objects all the way down. Until you reach turtles.'"
Any well-versed programmer will instantly recognize the turtle joke.

- kunai 13y agoYes, Logo was actually what I was referencing. I knew about the expression, but it was interesting that the author of the article would use that specific catchphrase, probably knowing that turtle graphics is commonly used to teach programming to newbies.
