"Stop Writing Dead Programs" by Jack Rusher (Strange Loop 2022)
Strange Loop Conference

Jack Rusher's Strange Loop 2022 talk argues that most programming languages are still designed around punchcard-era assumptions. He makes the case for live, interactive programming environments, drawing on Lisp, Smalltalk and REPL-driven development.
HN returns to it constantly as the talk on live programming and what modern tooling is missing, though a few found it too much.
