Dave Beer introduces us to this video coverage of an academic conference in the 1980s. His focus is on what academic discussion used to look like at the time. But as I browsed through the video I was struck by one argument - here's the clip, starting at about the 43 minute mark and running for maybe 20 seconds. Watch it here. It's such a harbinger of what's to come! - quite accurate, in my view, and yet dismissed with a scoff.
