The Forgotten Ideas in Computer Science
Revisits foundational ideas from 1960s–1980s computing—content-addressable storage, isolated message-passing actors, Lisp machines, and HyperCard—that modern software stacks lost.
In the early days of computing there were many good ideas that were 'before their time' and for one reason or another, these ideas were dropped!
As time passes, perhaps we should revisit some of these ideas.
