18:55 I was concentrating on eating my noodles when I heard "Tell us Mark, what's the last programming language we'll ever need?" -- "It's BASIC." -- and I spit the noodles all over the place. XD

I was chewing marshmallows late at night when Tupperware came across and just laugh until tears.

Chaotic, confusing, entertaining, and interesting, what more do you want from a talk?

For there to be more of them

Hilarious, entertaining, and perhaps even mildly educational!

At first I was "but where is C?!" and then I figured out that it won't fit because it's not a joke.

"...a 2B pencil makes a firm mark on the paper although Peter, if you could try to make your 1s look like 1s not 7s that would help the programmers an awful lot..."😂😂😂😂

24:17 a CD-ROM with sleeve cost just a few cents to make, so even if just 1% (or maybe even 0.1%) of CDs led to a new subscriber, it would still be worth the effort.

"..Mr Rendle what was the best kind of pencil to write your code?"😂😂😂😂

Not a bad talk. Entertaining and I love that 1970/01/01 is false, and that it was verified.

This didn't age too well.. I wonder when tickets for NDC { Bunker D} 2027 are available?

So sad! They missed the opportunity in the '80s to mention the the last programming language you'd ever need, called 'The Last One'!!! No joke....

2147. Noted.

Heard the java joke and immediately had to give this a like 😂😂

Please remember t test your EMP grenades before deploying them into the production servers. Beautiful

All the browser talk would make more sense for the NDC 1997 conference.

Collosus wasn't for breaking an enigma, but another german cryptographic system. Enigma was breaken by Bomba - polish invention only enhanced by turing

Miaj kolegaj ne ŝatas kiam mi uzas Esperanto por nomigi miajn variablojn. Sed mi tre ŝatis aŭdi la ŝercojn pri ĝi :P

I've heard it for years and I still don't get all the hate for Perl.

People who haven't used it have been told not to like it, so they don't

People who have used it, have been told not to like it so they don't. Joking aside, it was one of the first languages with package management. The perl mongers community may have been a bit toxic too, for modern python standards. The thing I did not like is the implicit nature, as described by the speakers. The internal state and how it responds to input in functions is quite horrific. Especially when you accidentally pass in a number where it expects a list or vice versa.

lmao remember 2017

city 17... half life reference???

Turing invented Collosus? There's a bloke called Tommy Flowers over here and he wants a fight. Turing's version of the Polish Bombe was used to decrypt Enigma... Flowers' Colossus was used to decrypt the Lorenz Cypher.

.NET Core is fine and well :D

Can't believe it's been five years since trump was inaugurated.

Did this just age badly or was it cringe in 2017 too?
