17:25 Interesting Parts

Did the speaker really leave out RPG? RPG was more popular than many of the languages mentioned. That would have been interesting for some because it was based on the 80 column paper card even when monitors were introduced. Everything needed to be in a certain column. Not RPG mention = blue screen of death.

Good Presentation

Now, retired from an IT career, I wanted to code again as a hobby. I relearned Basic, but no decent debugging tools. Then a lot of C++, inheritance, composition, encapsulation and then realized, that I only had scratched the surface of C++. Will I use my probably last 10 years to learn a language, I find more and more weird and constantly expanding - absolutely not! A short look at Pascal - no way. Then I had a look at K&R and felt quickly in love. I like the way C rewards you, when the logic is working and bites you very hard, when the logic sucks...

super funny and informative. I love this guy!

Very thought provoking and eye watering!

I distinguish between configuring & programming.

Pretty sure there is a movie about tommy flowers and allan turing.... excuse if im.spelling wrong but yeah there is an A/B list movie about this and it was pretty good.

LMAOO he’s hilarious. I love this teaching style

not very accurate. too much hand waving "I don't know so I don't care."

narrative and history are two different things! Sometimes one being subset of another.

cringe/10

When I was writing NATO Identifying data for Stock Code entry detail to be printed on Microfiche and loaded to a computer mainframe in a hidden basement somewhere, we used to fill in a form like the one you showed here which would go off to the ladies who would read it and decide they did not understand the technical term you used and they would circle the offending word and send it back to you 3 days later. 9 days later your data would be uploaded, after two more resubmits. When you checked the screen entry, there would be a typo and to correct it you had to redo the initial correct form set again.

So wrong with Pascal!

I wish he was given extra time to calmly explain the rest. I was a great interesting video class.

Is there a special reason for omitting Konrad Zuse‘s machines?

Uprad students attendence here......

As an application programmer I made a freelance living for 20 years using xBASE; that is: dBASE II, dBASE III, dBASE III+, FoxBASE, FoxPRo, Visual FoxPro. For control systems, I used FORTH. Others included many dialects of BASIC (Thoroughbred, Vax, Apple, Microsoft) and BCPL for applications and operating systems. I'm showing my age, so I'll go for a lie down now ;-)

I have the C book, the companion, and the C++ version.

Start of a trend? That trend is older than civilization.

Mic is too close to mouth picking up all the mouth noises, it’s quite distracting

Thank you !!!

Great Stuff.....history shared was short of boredom in every wise.

Why have industry failed to promote binary education, or to be against programming education as a sixth generation compiler, a via multi faceted user interfacing software, so designed to compile education employing binary systems, employing paged data files, built in composite form. Simpy write education at the home user desktop, as an essay, or listings, as lines of code represented as headings. In England the I.R.A. claim they would simply lose power in the north of England, as they cheat within current universities and school, as cretin.......

Please, I don't want to be a stickler, but isn't "come from" somewhat more semantically encompassing in cases where the function call returns data

Funny but not very informative. Each programming language gets just mentioned in terms of who created it and at what year, a helloworld followed by a few jokes. The whole talk could be 10mins long.

Guys says that Clojure isn’t a lisp, and I don’t really understand why.

fantastic presentation

Mark, excellent as always, but how could you have missed Leibniz’s Stepped Reckoner from 1672, a working mechanical calculator, which ultimately led to the industrially produced, still famous arithmometers of 1815-1915 (invented at roughly the same time as Jacquards loom machine).

One of the least likeable cunts in the history of computing

This talk is full of errors. For example, Apple didn't create Objective-C. Brad Cox created Objective-C and license it to Next Computers. Apple bought Next and with it, the Objective-C based technology known as NextStep, after that renamed as Cocoa.

Some great jokes were wasted on that audience :( Brilliant talk!

I bet Ada Lovelace banged like a barn door in a gale.

Nice. Anyone who knows about Tommy Flowers deserves to be heard. As an passionate IBM observer, I am surprised you dont even mention Forth, REXX, EXEC and EXEC2. To protect my VM signon, I wrote a second splash screen parodying VM/370. mine was VM/380 and the PUT level was the key to a mutating password. You needed to 9s complement the put level to get the password but I took this a step further in case there was someone observant nearby. I typed in a random string of characters and embedded the password inside that. It completely fooled everyone. The wrong random string of characters forced a logout. It could be overcome but I am not revealing that trick. I trusted myself enough to edit that into my PROFILE EXEC.

oh my lord.

Very interesting presentation, however the guy talking is a totally full of himself DBag,,.

OH yes, and aviation starts when a cave man looks upon a bird in flight and dreams of doing it himself, yes? Why was there no mention of Eckert/Mauchley? Computer programming necessarily begins with the first programmable computer, so why not mention these first steps? Why not a single word about "patch cables?" Most vexing of all, why no discussion of the evolution of assembly language? just say computer programming begins with Java and be done with it.

Suggestion - Use JMeter distributed concept . Master - Agent /jmeter architecture -useful for consolidating test results /Response time

55:46 For those who have never seen perl -- he's joking. It's really: print "Hello, World! ";

Great talk! Minor nit: ObjectiveC had a good life before Apple adopted it; it was developed and sold by Productivity Products Inc (PPI) in the early/mid 1980s.

Thank you Mr Randel for your tremendous efforts.

This is great, thank you.

🤗😂🤣

Did I miss Ada being mentioned? (Nobody misses Ada:)

@19:10 Fortran the only array programming language?! Why not APL or its descendants? Many would argue arrays (and matrices, and ...) are 'more native' to APL than any other language family.

Loved this. Yes, I had the first C book and once did a 2-year project in Objective-C. Ouch
