Hi

See YouTube:    https://youtu.be/nWTvXbQHwWs or just MP3 [0]
Found on HackerNews, which hasn't added much about the content.

I enjoyed this, it may be a bit basic for many here, but I got a lot from the first 1h45mins - up to the COVID19 stuff.

There are several points where I concluded that the Lua team had made good decisions and avoided pitfalls,
however my previously debated point about encouraging high quality compiled libraries (batteries[2])
does come back to haunt us.

Kind Regards Gavin Holt
