@Not Convinced What people don't mention nowadays is being a woman lowers your expected competence level significantly. So women tend to get hired at much, much lower proficiency level than men. And end up with people like me coaching them. When if I were in their position I wouldn't even get hired!!!! 🤬😡🤬
Yeah "obsolete" was a poor choice of words, I guess she wanted to say scarce...? But still I doubt we see scarcity of open source projects and technologies
Python has been my hobby I have enjoying for two years - and I love it a lot. I enjoy solving problems with Python. I am currently learning to work on neural networks with python. I cannot thank this man enough for giving us one of the best tools in the world.
Python is a mess. It's fine for knocking up a few line script. Writing anything more ambitious ends up running into the same problem as javascript but without the odd cools bits and even more frustration. Duck typing, get used to seeing the word 'self' in your code and for people crying 'not pythonic' because they made up a bunch of conventions to justify their bizarre and hazardous choices. Oh and __init__ ...seriously... falling over at run-time with errors that a non-toy language would have spotted at compile time... and don't forget that reformatting your code becomes an explosive issue because someone decided that spaces/tabs isn't just an aesthetic issue. Python belongs in the dustbin of failed experiments.
On one side there are many of us who just spend all our lives just trying to wrap our heads around the already existing programming languages, how they work, how a compiler works and so on ,while on the other side there are these people who just invent a new programming language just like that: I am always amazed how these people conceptualise and bring it to work..... How do their brains run in a manner to achieve all this....
Mr. Rossum's contribution to AI is so underrated. I'm glad to learn his work and interviews while he is still around. HUGE respect and I hope to learn everything from him before his time is up.
Someome else already mentioned this but I'll say it again -- it's so cool to be listening to these people talk when they are still around. That's like being able to listen to Einstein when he was still around, or Claude Shannon, or any of the other legends in STEM.

@Evil robot Santa Claus for sure. I have just started python this year and I'm going through the online bootcamps, but I already have a ton of books and it's clear that there is a TON more substance to the books - alas, I don't want to hop back and forth

The lady interviewing is clueless and not even remotely technical. She seems so lost and confused. They couldn't find one technical woman to interview this gentleman? And then they ask why women are not getting into programming? Because you don't care enough to find a good technical woman to conduct an interview.
For those who don't know, this man is right up there with Dennis Ritchie (C), his language, along with others, have changed, and are changing, the world.
Audiance is dead or what? come on greatest person on the planet in front of you? When you will praise him or feel proud when he will be dead? then most people will say omg he was greatest of all time.. First time dead audiance in front of Great Programmer.
I don't get all the negativity about the woman interviewer. Maybe some people would have prefered it to be more technical. But for me as a newbie I found it an interesting interview.
43:22 Guy On The Front Row Continuously Raises His Hand For Asking Question But The Lady Never Responds To His Query And Ignoring Them. That Level Of Rejection Hurts.
Many people forget that this guy speaks fluent assembly, not to mention his excellent command of C, and that he can write directly in machine code because he understands so well what the machine does. Think about it for a second - learning IT and pushing the field forward cannot be done by people who speak Python, C# or Java only. If you are an IT student, please learn the basics! If you're a user - a non IT person who uses Python as a tool - great - welcome on board. But if you consider yourself to be an IT specialist - Python is not your toy! Otherwise in 20 years there will be no one left on the planet who knows how a computer works.
The guy at the front row must have been really mad for not getting the opportunity to ask his question. Sadly all good things come to an end. Guido also seems pretty nerdy as he stated earlier - and yet open to new ideas. That's why i think Python is at where it is. If given the question would have loved to ask Guido why he chose the name Python - what inspired him to do so, the implications of doing so and finally if he somewhat regretted naming it as "Python".
Es difícil predecir, pero pienso igual que el muchacho que hizo la ultima pregunta, la tendencia será a ser más accesible, más natural la programación (esto está sucediendo en todas las áreas no sólo en la programación de computadoras), la cuestión es como se use para resolver problemas de gran complejidad. Tal como Guido dijo no previo que Python se fuera a usar en áreas como el aprendizaje de máquinas, todo dependerá de la propia industria, del mercado de trabajo y sus usuarios...
The bit about women in coding shows how even highly intelligent people can fall for this identity folly. So they got all these female speakers now but the actual core dev community is still overwhelmingly male. Indicating despite all the efforts they make and even using selection bias against men when mentoring, women simply aren't interested as much as men in this role. And they probably made the conferences worse by getting token speakers chosen based on their identity instead of based on their expertise in the actual topic the conference is about. Thus leaving us collectively worse off in the name of supposed equality.

Open Source becoming obsolete? Ignorant question indeed, but don't blame because it is perhaps not interviewers field. It is the **closed** sourced software that is going out, Microsoft, the monster of closed source, has gone Open Source and Visual Studio Code, Windows Terminal and other softwares are examples of Giants bowing to Open Source.
I would have hoped the talk to being a bit more political. So it was not very technical as it would have been interesting to learn what language design desicions were made for witch reasons instead of saying that is was like his gut feeling, at least from a technical point of view. On the other handsite, it seems to be a very big problem how emotional affected people get for changing tiny parts of a programming language and this emotion turns into hatred. So maybe it would have been interesting what steps cold be taken to make this culture more open. So here i think the talk was not detailed enough.
