Don't have time to watch the video, but I read through the PDF (which, btw, consists of very brief notes, so it's not really worth reading. However I think I got their basic thesis.) I find it an interesting point of view, since I'm a total noob when it comes to programming - first year CS student, only done a few tiny VB projects before that. However, I really enjoy programming, work on a few projects in my spare time, and plan to get some decent languages (a scripting language (Perl/Python/Ruby), and maybe a functional language (Clojure?) under my belt soon. I've used OO in class projects, but I want to figure out how to use it in my own projects. I want to learn software engineering practices. I want to learn graphics programming. That's just over the next couple of years! In 10, 20 years time, who knows? The appeal to me is that I can never peak in programming, their will always be new stuff to learn. Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, my point was that I'm a noob now, I'm very willing to be modest and learn from others, but the hope of becoming a genius programmer I find very motivating.
