Does anyone recognize the redhead in the front row who seems to be wearing a valid Smalltalk expression on his chest? Or maybe it's Obj-C. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into his shirt.
Anyway, if you've never seen any of Vi's videos, she's just absolutely brilliant, and worth paying attention to. She's making math popular. A brick at a time, but isn't that amazing?
Thought some of the people here might really dig her. Sorry about being a little off-topic.
Also, Bert actually has to watch this if he hasn't seen her videos. I'm requiring that. I won't ever tell you what to do again but this time is for real, man. Required:)

You're reading too much into his shirt. It's a gratuitous catch-phrase from the moribund filepile.org community, circa 2001, and propagated ironically as secretive "in the know" knowledge since then.
Fun talk.

Guess you won’t be surprised to learn that I’m actually working with Vi at CDG Labs (Alan Kay’s latest research group). And yes, she’s great. As are the other researchers Alan has gathered:

if you have never seen any of her videos, you should check the ones where she actually talks about math. (like the ones she mentions in that talk)
greetings, martin.
