Alan Kay on E.W. Dijkstra and The Nature of Math in Computer Science.

Disclaimer: I appreciate both computer scientists, Alan Kay as well as E.W. Dijkstra and respect their contributions to the art & science we all love and care about.

Even though I cannot say anything about either Alan Kay or Edsger Dijkstra on a personal level, I felt like sharing this funny snippet from Alan Kay’s very interesting and worth watching OOPSLA ‘97 keynote.
