A short story about Xerox PARC from the Q&A of one of the lectures: https://youtu.be/sw7TkkiGVIY?t=7885

Headphone warning, the video can blow your ears if you turn the volume up to hear the audience. :|

I was curious about the 'nsfw' bit at the end of the lecture as well : )

The Xerox Star was truly ahead of its time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xerox_Star

Every time I delve into Xerox PARC documentation about Smalltalk,Interlisp-D and Mesa/Cedar, it saddens me that it was AT&T culture that got widespread into the industry, not Xerox's.

Wow, you should make an HN submission out of that talk in its own right. Would be perfect for this weekend.

I followed up your idea.

Yeah, you could see that one coming a mile away...

Oh, this is good :)

that was neat
