I remember seeing this when it first came out; since then, I've developed an object-oriented actor-based language and also a data-driven function-based language. I disagree with different things now! I mostly agree, actually, but:
I don't understand what this is complaining about; it seems too pejorative to be actionable. Generously, he might be complaining about Sufficiently Smart Compilers, and that lines up with later slides; cynically, he might be complaining about garbage collection, a well-worn dead hobby-horse of game developers. It could also be a dig at the unintuitive evaluation order of languages like Haskell or OCaml.
