>Alan Kay, my favorite curmudgeon, spent decades trying to remind us

Alan Kay giving the same (unique, his own, not a bad) speech at every conference for 50 years is not Alan Kay being a curmudgeon

>we keep reinventing concepts that were worked out in the late 70s and he’s disappointed we’ve been running in circles ever since.

it's Alan Kay running in circles



All right, but if we're still running the same circles, then his speech is still relevant.
