VPS difficulties

by Richard Kenneth Eng

I'm creating the competition website using Pharo and Teapot. For encryption, I'm using Pierce Ng's PasswordCrypt, which requires a 32-bit C library. This means I must run 32-bit Pharo. And this means I must run 32-bit Pharo under 32-bit Linux. Therein lies the rub... I would like to host the website at DigitalOcean or Linode or OVH. As far as I can tell, however, these services do not support 32-bit Linux, only 64-bit. What can I do?

Re: [Pharo-users] My Keynote at the Salta Conference

by horrido

Thank you for your well-considered responses. I appreciate them. As I said in the original post, I am open to an alternative approach to the competition. The current approach may be problematic, I don't know. I still want a five-round four-person team event. I want to stretch this out for maximum effect. I want to structure it like a sporting event in order to raise excitement. There are several key points: 1) It has to sufficiently challenging to the contestants so that they really learn to use Pharo effectively. This should also help to mitigate cheating. After all, where are they going to find a sharp Smalltalker to aid in deception? ;-) 2) It has to be easy to "judge" each round. This should be automatable. After all, if there are 500 teams, we don't want to spend countless hours judging the team submissions manually. It would be daunting. At this point, I welcome any new ideas for the competition.

UFFI uses the method source code to map arguments, and if no source code is available, FFI calls cannot be resolved. This is solved in Pharo7 thanks to Vincent Blondeau by embedding argument names into the method (and thus not requiring source code anymore). If you need it, you can take the FFICompilerPlugin class + (RBMethodNode>>ensureCachedArgumentNames) from Pharo7 and try to backport them on your Pharo6 installation.

Re: [Pharo-users] My Keynote at the Salta Conference

by Todd Blanchard

OK, sorry. I missed that. Now I've read it. And it requires a customized VM that can count bytecodes executed against a budget and terminate execution if the budget is exceeded. For the developer it requires an awareness of the relationship between bytecodes and source code. I, personally, have virtually no idea what that relationship is. I used Smalltalk as a high level language and try not to worry about how expensive things are until it actually matters. I think that is most developers. So I'm not really a fan of this contest approach. The implementation is certainly beyond my skills. I have been dabbling with Squeak since its release and only recently trying to get into Pharo "in anger" because I have a couple projects I personally want to realize. I'm finding the entire thing to be really fast moving and hard to get my head around and the VM is pretty much still impenetrable to me after a couple months trying to build one. So I'm definitely not your guy and the number of people who are on top of the VM enough to pull this off is likely on the order of ten. Maybe a different kind of coding contest?

Re: [Pharo-users] My Keynote at the Salta Conference

by Esteban Maringolo

Richard, Please apologize if my reply was too harsh and without anesthesia. I'm happy a private company/person decided to fund this, I was there and applauded it then and I still celebrate it, I really hope it does good. What I'm skeptical about is about the return of this, and its effectiveness given the initial proposal and shown material, and the current loose definition/contents. I'm not doubting about your dedication and previous marketing activities, actually I believe it was quite efficient, and for the lack of any ROI or equivalent measurement, I _believe_ that this challenge won't add much. OTOH I also believe that if no harm is done, some action is better than no action, and your challenge is certainly better than just watching. In terms of funding you only needed to raise the asked money, and you succeeded. A majority vote was not necessary. So it doesn't matter whether I agree, because I only speak for myself and no one is entitled to speak on behalf of the community. Regards, Esteban A.
