[Oberon] ETHZ Three-part Series of Interviews with Niklaus Wirth (Dec 2021)

[Pablo Cayuela]

And I was really amazed by the many opportunities that ETH and also Swiss
missed to embark on the first wave of the Computer Revolution, being so
late to adopt and teach Computer Science, constructing computers, and even
the exponential industrial blossom of the 1980's, with graphical
workstations, the before-drone project and lastly, the Oberon and related
technologies.
I think that only in countries (like my Argentina) outside Europe, USA and
allies such a thing occurs such as to lose every opportunity in new
technologies.
The frustration of Prof Niklaus Wirth is evident in these interviews.
