I watched the whole thing. He makes some solid points.

In my own current work we build pretty complex web based software in Python and JavaScript. Parts of the Python use the Django framework and almost all of the JavaScript uses React. React is another beast of its own, but Django projects use objects where they make sense—to model records pulled from a database—and functions with simpler data types almost everywhere else. We get work done and avoid the over abstract silliness of object oriented programming by not trying to follow it strictly.

I think object-oriented programming is complicated but not bad.

This was really good. I was captivated and watched it all. I agree. After 10+ years in my field I'm starting to have similar opinions and without realising it, I've begun to code procedural.

His nice idea near the end (42:24) ... is literally a lambda.
