For a developer in the common usage, as distinct from a user, I suspect you may be right that itâs not too much of an issue. However, Smalltalk tends to erase that distinction and there seems to be a solid community who are both user and developer and âdo brain surgery on themselvesâ regularly. I am such a user and got surprised and a little damaged by this gotcha. > The thing is that the `Set/Dictionary allSubInstances do: #rehash` approach > is extremely heavy-handed. I agree. That would be one way to mitigate. Iâm interested in others e.g. a code critic or warning in the browser like some refactoring have.

Smalltalks Workshop 2022: call for papers!

by Mariano Martinez Peck

Greetings everyone, This year, in addition to traditional technical talks, FAST has organized a Workshop [1] where researchers are invited to submit papers, which will be evaluated by specialized reviewers. We have chosen the Workshop format to let authors get early qualified feedback of their work without preventing them from presenting in other conferences or publications, since this format does not imply exclusive submission.
