I didn't quite hear what he said, I thought I heard LIPS? Did he say It's because of you ... we are all using LIPS? Is that slang for Pharo? Does Pharo have some project named LIPS?

Re: [Pharo-users] OT - an opinion on node.js

Personally, I don't think it is out of line. Off topic, as you stated, but not out of line. Here is the deal. The people on this mailing list form a community. We get to know each other in a manner. We trust and value the opinions of at least some of the people in this community. To me it is okay to ask off topic question and opinions within limits. If that were the only contribution to the community. The person might be more like a troll. You my friend are no troll. You are a regular and valued member of the community and deserve some liberty for off topic conversation. :) Just one community member's opinion. No opinion on the video (haven't watched it yet) nor node.js (never used it).

Re: [Pharo-users] OT - an opinion on node.js

by Peter UhnÃ¡k

How is this related to Pharo in any way? Why is on the pharo mailing list? The video is intentionally inflammatory and I don't really see a reason why we would need to either start a flame war (if there are node.js devs reading it), or an echo chamber (so we all just put ourselves on the back hour great our Pharo is). > Never used it. > I'd be interested to hear any counter opinons. wtf?

OT - an opinion on node.js

by Ben Coman

I've nothing personal against node.js. Never used it. But this skit had me giggling at the end. Had to post it for friends here that might understand it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzkRVzciAZg Without getting too much more OT, I'd be interested to hear any counter opinons by node.js users. cheers -ben

The following is the cross-platform (Squeak, GemStone and Pharo) way to specify a github repository: Metacello new configuration: 'OfNeoCSV'; repository:'github://svenvc/NeoCVS:master/repository'; version: #stable; load.
