this free video lecture is one of the best descriptions of coding I’ve ever seen. It also describes a fundamental shift in style we can make to improve software development as a whole.

Non-coders: this is one of the best descriptions of coding you’ll find. Kyle is the code preacher! This might be watched in 20 years as a historical examination of a sea change in programming paradigms. I’ll pray for that :) frontendmasters.com/teachers/kyle-…@FrontendMasters@getify
It's a great video, but it's not a new idea. For example Robert Martin wrote about this in his great book "Clean Code" and Martin Fowler wrote in his book "Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code": "Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand".
Ah, fantastic. Nice to have more information about the sources. He certainly does a great job of communicating the idea. Which is perhaps more important than the idea alone. Which is sort of recursively what he’s talking about :)
