Stef,
You probably leave in a protected environment but I do not
live in the same.
Did you check numPy recently or R? momemtum?
Do you think that people do not know how to count?
In 1980 my students were not even born, so how can it be
better than
������ python, java, c#, lua, ...
Do you think that it makes me happy to see my old friends
leaving our language and do node.js.
Seriously.
Why do you blame me? Frankly tell to leave Pharo and I will
leave. I can tell you.
I think that I need a break in my life in this moment so it
would be a good opportunity.
Because if each time I do something to improve the wealth and
visibility of our system
I get such kind of feedback then may be this is the time to do
something.
Afterall I may be wrong.
Seriously if you think that I'm not doing a good job and you
want to stay with old friends
just let me know. but if I stay then do not tell me that I'm
an asshole that does not want to
promote smalltalk.
I do not blame you. ��I am offended by Pharo disavowing the
Smalltalk name. ��I am offended when people state Pharo is not��Smalltalk.
��I want to refute false assumptions about the name��Smalltalk,
such as the equating it with cobol. ��Instead of taking it
personally why don't you address my points about older
programming languages whose names��(AFAICT)��are not perceived
negatively?
I support this community and am excited to participate in it.
��I admire and respect your efforts, St��phane, in developing,
organizing and supporting this community. ��But that does not
mean I will keep quiet about something I profoundly disagree
with and think is wrong. ��And that thing is to deny Pharo is
Smalltalk.
And I do this not because I am a zealot, but because words
meaning are important, because to understand each other we
should call a spade a spade, and because I am grateful for and
delighted by this thing called Smalltalk, and I will not support
taking credit away from it. ��Ruby is inspired by Smalltalk.
��Pharo is the real thing.
