In this talk from the March 5, 2012 BayJax event at Yahoo!, Douglas Crockford outlines the basic principles of designing secure software, with a focus on web applications. With his usual sardonic wit, he starts at the beginning (almost literally -- with the invention of language itself) and makes a strong case for designing secure software based on fundamental principles rather than specific te...

In this 2007 presentation at Yahoo!, which is meant to be the beginning of a three-course sequence (followed by "Theory of the DOM" and then "Advanced JavaScript"), Douglas Crockford explores not only the language as it is today but also how the language came to be the way it is. Note: there's a title at the opening that claims this is "Part 1 of 4", but this video contains all four parts edite...

In this talk from Yahoo!'s internal Frontend Engineering Summit in 2007, Douglas Crockford discusses the importance of quality in software engineering. "I'm going to cover the whole range of human emotion," he begins, "from the heights of creative ecstasy all the way down to the depths of technical despair. And, as you'd expect, we're going to start with the latter."

In an internal tech talk at Yahoo! in 2006, Douglas Crockford delves into the sordid history of the DOM: that "vast source of incompatibility, pain and misery" that frontend engineers love to hate.

In this presentation (the third of a three-part series) Douglas Crockford looks closely at code patterns from which JavaScript programmers can choose in authoring their applications. He compares familiar constructs like the Pseudoclassical Pattern with more unique patterns like the Parasitic Pattern that (he argues) run more "with the grain" of JavaScript.
