Alan Kay

This is the story of how everyone came to hate OO programming. Because they don't know what OO programming is. All the cool tech was thought up by Alan Kay/Xerox PARC, Ted Nelson, Bill Gosper, and Vannevar Bush years ago. Those were the real visionaries.

I should also include the following people as visionaries:
Leslie Lamport
Bob Widlar
All 50s-70s MIT AI guys
Heinz von Foerster
the LoperOS guy
Terry Davis

if you had listened to Kay, you would know that encapsulation is actually the basis of it all.

I acknowledge Terry's technical accomplishments, but he doesn't belong on that list. Lamport and Widlar, for example, made original contributions to computer science and electrical engineering, respectively. A lot of original research came out of MIT in the time range you specified, too. But Terry's work was fundamentally derivative. He thought computers had gotten too complex, and less fun, and wanted a "modern Commodore" that reminded him of the fun of 80s hobbyist computing, but on modern AMD64 hardware. If Java pajeets and soy-swilling web developers are our point of reference, sure, Terry is a genius. But anybody with a bachelor's degree in C.S. from a decent program can write something of equivalent complexity and functionality to TempleOS and HolyC.

It's how amazing how decisive the divide between the academics and the pragmatists in computers and technology is.

Alan Kay is a living fossil of mid 20th century liberalism.

I never got the big deal about smalltalk. I don't see how it's version of OOP is valid, or even better than Java.

Meant to say "more valid", not that it isn't valid.

It just takes an idea and uses it as much as possible and exclusively as possible. It's "what if literally everything was messages?" the language. see youtube.com/watch?v=0fpDlAEQio4 for some others languages like this.

remove LoperOS guy, he's a SJW and never created anything useful

I read some of the guy's technical articles before and they were good. I have not been following him, though. Post the links to his faggotry.

Wrong.

Simula objects were created to model real world objects. They behave like coroutines and processes.

This seems more like a criticism of Java than anything else.

Where are the proofs?

So much was done with ancient languages that created very optimized outputs, and they themselves were optimized; unlike the memelangs of modern times, which are completely useless and only exist for sjws to say "i invented a feminist language with whymyn raheeghts!".

he's not wrong though, some of the shit in oop is made to slow down the programmer

are you DEFENDING Java?

Is Java bad? I'm not a /prob/ so pardun much ignant

No, but the person in the video should level his complaints at his target instead of being overly broad. Smalltalk is not Java style OOP. In Smalltalk there are no types and everything is late binding.

HAPAS ARE SUPERIOR TO WHITES
The first point that you need to note is that Whites were historically a great civilization. I don't deny that, after all, they controlled over 3/4 of the world at some point.
The second point that you need to note is that Asians are autistic bug-people with no empathy. No empathy = less societal progress since they let people die randomly despite their worth to society.
The third point that you need to acknowledge is that white people have lost any and all traits which made them a powerful and superior race. You NEET-Sock larpers take achievements from the last great men in NS Germany and attempt to make them your own. You haven't done shit. White people are 100% jew controlled, and this isn't because the jew is particularly powerful. This is because white people are emotionally weak. Why? Whites have been undergoing severe devolution over the past 100 years. The two jew-induced world wars killed off entire generations of strong, brave white men, and this has KILLED THE WHITE RACE. You pathetic Nig-Sock larpers need to understand this. There's no coming back from this.
White people are weak and pathetic. They have lost 100% of what made them great through a jewish dysgenics program, and while this is unfortunate, it is also irreversible. So forget about it.
Hapas, more specifically White/Asian hapas, are the new ubermensch, so to speak. We are superior to both whites and asians since the properties of both races are polar opposites, yet meet in the middle to form an optimal combination. Whites are too cucked and have too much empathy, so much so that they feel excessive empathy to subhuman races like niggers, jews and arabs.
On the opposite side of the scale, asians have too little empathy, being perfectly content to watch their fellow countrymen run over by trucks, poisoned by fake food products, gassed by the very air in their cities, and executed by their own government for petty reasons.
These two qualities are, as I mentioned, polar opposites, and neither are beneficial to the well-being of society. Hapas possess something in the middle of these polar opposites. We are much more racist than white people. And at the same time, we have empathy towards each other. Our women are far less slutty than white roasties, contrary to /poo/ disinformation - white men prefer white or asian women, not hapas. I know this not only due to theoretical knowledge but due to actual life experience talking to others of my own kind. We only require the tiniest push to fully support anti-nigger, anti-shitskin and anti-kike ideology, whereas whites never go all the way. Whites can only become magakikes, or anti-illegal-immigrants at the ABSOLUTE best.
Hapas are small in number at the moment but with further degeneration of the white race, racemixing between whites and asians will become more frequent. Hapas will rise from the ashes of the white race and inherit the world.
It is often stated by Nig-Socks that racemixing is evil and bad because "the product of racemixing contains neither of the desirable qualities of the two parent races". This may be true under ideal conditions, but Whites and Asians don't have any desirable qualities by themselves. The races have been degenerated by decades of communist (i.e. jewish) dysgenics (in the case of asians) or decades of war-induced jewish dysgenics (in the case of whites). As such, the ordinary Zig Forums theory no longer applies. Neither of the parent races, whites or asians, actually are suited to their environment. They also happen to have polar opposite qualities, which conflict with the goal of societal stability. This is why hapas are not inferior, but superior to both races.
Note that what I said only applies to White/Asian hapas. Any mixtures containing shitskin or nigger genetics is just as bad as the shitskin or nigger genetics would be by themselves, since shitskins and niggers were never a part of great civilization.
