OOP: You Keep Using That Word . . .

Many developers keep using the term "Object Oriented Programmer", but the guy who actually coined it doesn't think it means what they think it means. This talk recaps both sides, compares and contrasts them, and makes recommendations for each based on circumstances.

Agenda:

- Quick recap of what we now call OOP
- Where did that come from?
- Alan Kay coining the term OOP
- What he meant
- Actor Model and other implementations
- What most of us mean by it now
- Advantages and drawbacks of each, re dev, testing, ops, etc.
- Recommendations when to use each
- Summary/Conclusion
