This might be a robot, with all his weird handles, and strange talk, we have had some trouble with robots trolling the lists. Then again, he violates the first law of robotics, 'A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm', so he must be human. > On 19 Jan 2015, at 16:45, horrido <horrido.hobbies(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Marcus Denker-4 wrote >>> On 18 Jan 2015, at 13:16, horrido < > >> horrido.hobbies@ > >> > wrote: >>> >>> This is a fine line to tread.

I must be old and jaded, or living like a recluse, because I donât recall anything special beyond an article in Medium, the link to it in ycombinator, and a couple of posts on wordpress . Could you help me out and point me the rest?

Up until recently, Smalltalk has been all but forgotten in the IT community at large. Do you need evidence? Consider that organizations such as the Smalltalk Foundation or ESUG have not achieved even this much in 9 months, or several years! Just how quick should progress be in your mind? You have no conception of the amount of work I've put into the SRP. You are quick to dismiss it all as, what, hot air? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Blitzkrieg-tp4800165p4800399.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Essays

by horrido

We have a couple of essays published at Smalltalk renaissance <https://smalltalkrenaissance.wordpress.com/category/essays/> . *We need more.* This is our opportunity to answer the questions, concerns, and criticisms of non-Smalltalk developers, an opportunity afforded by the SRP, which is drawing much new attention to Smalltalk. We should exploit this opportunity and not waste it. Suggested essay topics include: - talk about actual use of Smalltalk in the enterprise - expand on the much-touted productivity advantage of Smalltalk (many people are skeptical) - explain how the experience of using the Smalltalk environment is superior to that of Eclipse, IntelliJ, Visual Studio, etc. - talk about future developments in Smalltalk, eg, concurrency features, new IDEs, new tooling, etc. - any other topics you may deem noteworthy So, please, contribute an essay. /Without you, there is no campaign./ Send all submissions to my personal email: horrido.hobbies at gmail dot com. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Essays-tp4800394.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi Alex, I strongly believe that the concrete implementation that links Roassal to the data format should be moved to a separate package and ideally, to another configuration. The generic engine should be decoupled from concrete data sources.
