                        <span class="chatlog__markdown-preserve">1958-1966: A few different people gradually come up with the notion of structured data. Conventions for managing compound data made of multiple words in memory. If you have two points, you want their x and y coordinates close together and in the same relative order. Seems obvious, but wasn't! See <a href="http://akkartik.name/sketchpad-oo.png" target="_blank">http://akkartik.name/sketchpad-oo.png</a> from the Sketchpad thesis [1].

1960-1962: Ivan Sutherland works on Sketchpad. It presages many OO ideas, but they're all in the programmer's mind and prose (thesis) because the code is all machine code.

1961-1962: Simula provides language support for many OO ideas: objects, classes, inheritance, dispatch based on the precise class of an object (virtual methods).[2]

1960-1975: Data first. This was mostly a mindset thing, but led eventually to notation like <span class="chatlog__markdown-pre chatlog__markdown-pre--inline">obj.method</span>. Had spread fairly wide by around 1975, when Fred Brooks said, "show me your code and I'll be mystified. Show me your data structures and the code will be obvious." [3]

1973-1975: Abstract data types by Barbara Liskov. Ignore internal details of how objects are laid out in memory. Focus instead on a small vocabulary of operations that can be performed using them. Interfaces, basically.[4]

1966-1975: Alan Kay coins OO after working on Smalltalk. (The first chapter of <a href="http://gagne.homedns.org/~tgagne/contrib/EarlyHistoryST.html" target="_blank">http://gagne.homedns.org/~tgagne/contrib/EarlyHistoryST.html</a> is better than my history above.) "Did not have C++ in mind." However, we're only halfway done.</span>

1980-1994: Lisp has been evolving largely in parallel, but now starts to cross-pollinate with OO. MIT Flavors (1982), CommonLOOPS (1986), CLOS (1994). OO is big on late binding. Lisp takes late binding to 11, with before/after advice and dispatch based on the types of multiple arguments. In 1994, Common Lisp decides to adopt lexical scope by default.

1992: It becomes clear that there's a yin-yang duality between objects and closures.[6] Though objects have the benefit of putting data first.

1994: The "gang of four" writes the Design Patterns book, based on ideas by the architect Christopher Alexander. Kicks off the field of OO design.

2001: Joel Spolsky coins "architecture astronauts,"[7] peak of hype cycle for design patterns. (OO design remains in vogue to this day, though.)

2007: Clojure arrives. Built on an OO foundation (the JVM) but determinedly anti-OO. Peak of the hype cycle for OO? Functional programming is now ascendant, impelled by the value of immutability.

2008-2014: Growing anti-OO sentiment[8], anti-design-patterns sentiment[9], awareness that composition is superior to inheritance[10].

2020: Richard Feldman crystallizes the case against OO[11]: OO wants to make every object a little computer. But why do we want to make <em>all</em> programs distributed?</span>

                        <span class="chatlog__markdown-preserve">I'd argue that 99% of the reasons people want <em>methods</em> (and what many mean by "OOP" in a weird sense) are for the following reasons:

 (1) Organizing procedures under a data type

 (2) Allowing methods as a form syntactic sugar for writing calls in a <em>subject verb object</em> manner, e.g. <span class="chatlog__markdown-pre chatlog__markdown-pre--inline">do_thing(x, y)</span> vs <span class="chatlog__markdown-pre chatlog__markdown-pre--inline">x.do_thing(y)</span>

 (3) Searching for procedures/methods by a data type, especially with the aid of tools such as an IDE

Regarding (1), I personally believe this is much better solved with a well designed package/module/library system as part of the language. Most OOP languages <em>do not</em> have such a system and usually use classes as a means to organize code. For my programming language <a class="inserted-after" href="https://odin-lang.org/" target="_blank">Odin</a>, packages have really aided us in terms of organization a lot better than 

Regarding (2), this is a weird linguistic typology thing which I doubt most people will even know unless they speak multiple languages. If you want to learn more about word orders in different languages, I recommend reading the following:

 * <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subject%E2%80%93verb%E2%80%93object_word_order" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subject%E2%80%93verb%E2%80%93object_word_order</a>
 * <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verb%E2%80%93subject%E2%80%93object_word_order" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verb%E2%80%93subject%E2%80%93object_word_order</a>


Regarding (3), this is purely a tooling issue. It comes down to two main aspects: 

 * Many people just want to use the tools that they have and how they currently work (there is nothing wrong with that, per se) 
 * Many people cannot think outside of the current paradigm and think what is being asked for is not possible


Doing <span class="chatlog__markdown-pre chatlog__markdown-pre--inline">foo.</span> and waiting for the IDE to autocomplete what is available for that value of a specific data type is extremely useful to many people, but there is not reason it could not work for something that was purely procedural, it is that many languages nowadays do support some form of methods and thus the general need has not arisen.</span>

Trying to demarcate precisely the boundaries of "OOP" might be a time sink. I'd much rather chop OOP up into its component pieces, and then we can discuss each separately. And then the question of, "is there anything we missed?" becomes fruitful.</span>

this is why I think mere methods and OOP are separate concerns. Having a nice . notation is one thing, introducing the extra machinery is another (and OOP only starts manifesting when the extra machinery comes into play)                                    </span>

You cannot treat [programming objects] as "real objects" since "real objects" and "programming objects" have little connection to each other ontologically. This is why I've previously called OOP a form of misinterpreted and misapplied Aristotelian Metaphysics applied to a domain it was never meant to model[2].

By this statement, I mean that <em>artificially</em> conforming to any/all relations between data and types to an artificial hierarchy of <em>agency</em> is a form of naïve-Aristotelian metaphysics. Since there is no actual <em>agency</em> in the programming objects, it is a partial fallacy (and as previously stated, category error). When trying to conform a program to have a particular structure when it does not naturally, the absence of a structure in a program in more useful than a bad structure.

The best defense I've heard for OO design is to limit your ambitions to modeling <em>solutions</em>, not problems. That avoids the issues<span class="chatlog__markdown-mention" title="gingerBill#9999">@gingerBill</span> raises, but it's also a much more modest goal.

- <strong>"OOP is when you associate behavior with data":</strong> This is present in OOP, but not really the heart of the issue. That is, just because you have methods doesn't necessarily mean you have anything more than simple procedural programming with some syntax sugar.
- <strong>"OOP models the real world":</strong> This is categorically not true or effective, no matter what language you use. The real world resists taxonomy, and doesn't have anything to do with the problems you are solving.
- <strong>"OOP is Java":</strong> Well, we didn't say it as such, but we did discuss many of the specific problems of Java, and the promises it failed to live up to, despite its takeover of industry.
- <strong>"OOP as a model of computation":</strong> This idea was appealing largely because of promises of independent components and easy reuse - but arguably OOP is worse at providing this than other programming paradigms (especially the Java flavor of OOP).
- <strong>"OOP tackles complexity":</strong> There are some good concepts, such as modularity and avoiding globals, that became popular along with OOP languages, but OOP itself makes things more complex.</span>

                        <span class="chatlog__markdown-preserve">I'd been writing a summary as well over the conversation, and it is much more instrumental, through the lens of "how to write better programs"

- if you have lots of one kind of thing, give them a common template
- when building a program, take a moment to plan such schemas first
- as a schema proves valuable, rework it to be more timeless. This includes making it easy to change the memory layout, but much more.

Some rules of thumb like these capture all that is valuable about OO, to my mind. And what programming languages can contribute here are late-binding capabilities that preserve optionality for the programmer.

What they don't capture is the hardest problem of all: how you can preserve an executable, checkable model of the world that acts as a history of why your program is as it is.

Tests are one way to do that. Formal models are another, though formal models can also be used for modeling solutions rather than contexts. Prose documents are a third. They have limitations, but they're better than nothing to a future code archeologist.

A lot of the ills we see with OO dogma lie in the space between my rules of thumb. You have to <em>wait</em> until you understand a domain before you try to generalize. OO languages are particularly bad here, because you're forced to create classes literally on line 1.

I think design as a general activity makes no sense. Good design comes from understanding a domain. It is by necessity domain-specific.

And any design activity really has to have a certain level of humility. Pick a bounded problem. Interact with few peers (that themselves have humility in dependencies and goals). Keep things coherent rather than trying to optimize the whole ocean into paperclips.</span>

It sounds like the prevailing opinion here is that:
- Object-oriented programming is fundamentally an approach to modeling and design, not merely some nice syntax in your language
- Object-oriented <em>design</em> is fundamentally flawed, since the idea of solving problems by modeling the world is fundamentally flawed
- The flaws of object-oriented design also prevent OOP from being a useful model of computation, or from meaningfully tackling complexity</span>
