Guido van Rossum revisits Python's life in a new documentary - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45055272 - August 2025
I love Python. I love documentaries. I love computing history. I did not love this.
Yeah, there's something about Honeypot (or I guess CultRepo now) documentaries that rub me the wrong way. Sometimes it feels like an over-glorification of the subject matter, sometimes it's the slick editing and music choices that remind me of corny biopic films. I get that it's trying to be engaging to not just technical people though.
Care to elaborate why?
I love that channel and many documentaries on that channel, But when I translated this python video with yandex and reuoded it I called it python drama and Perl advertisement.
Ofcourse there's drama. It's a documentary about real humans, not a lecture. What did you expect it to be, details on the interpreter implementation?
Thanks for sharing this.
haven't watched it yet - how does this stack up against the react documentary?
