Story of the past, present and future of programming.

Presented at GOTO Amsterdam 2019. https://gotoams.nl/2019/sessions/1088

What is the the future of programming? Steve Peak, a decade long founder and developer, goes in the deep end with programming languages: the past, present and future. This talk is showing concrete examples of how programming has got 100x easier over the last 60 years, but also how it will get another 100x easier over the next 10 years. Our journey as an industry is a story of abstraction; moving us further away from the computer and closer to the human: pure business-logic. Discover what the future has in store with concrete examples as Steve demos a product that may be the exact future of programming developers have been working towards.

3. What is programming?
4. Programming is abstraction.
5. A bridge to the machine.
6. Programming is a story of data. When the food is about to be delivered, send sms with the estimated time of delivery. When a customer signs-up, send them a welcome email.
7. The story of programming.
8. 1700 Timeline Programming defines patterns
9. it stores knowledge 1880 1900
10. but it has bugs... 1947
11. It’s our language to communicate 1950
12. 1960 However, it’s cryptic and hard to read... Low-level languages 1950

16. “Clouds” Then along came the 2006
17. No language was built for the cloud. 2019 2006 2007 2013 2014 All Languages All tools (later in time) Cloud-era 2006
18. “Dev-Ops” was introduced to deploy software. 2007
19. Yet, we keep reinventing the wheel. Language 1990 Now High-level languages 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 WHY SO MANY??
