And your objects are hashes, but when your code crashes,
You’ll find they were functions as well,

Incidentally… that's the same Dylan Beattie who has some hilarious, high-quality programming/tech parodic songs such as You Give REST a Bad Name, Bug in the JavaScript and DMCA.

Very cool, well delivered talk. Definitely worth a watch.
