I tried that tack. I said Pharo is only 8 years old, but some people come back and tell me that Pharo is still essentially Smalltalk. It's hard for me to disagree. Richard On 1 January 2017 at 11:27, stepharong <stepharong@free.fr> wrote:
Since people believe that new equals better, we market Pharo as new. And Pharo is new and it will continue to improve so this is not even a lie :)
There is a reason why we decided to go that road and avoid to always say to people that we use a language designed nearly 40 years ago.
But you can try :)

Wow! *In just one day*, the Slashdot story added another thousand pageviews
to my TechBeacon article!
However, if you look at the comments, there's an awful lot of disdain for Smalltalk. It appears that Slashdot is inhabited by a lot of ignorant and opinionated programmers. I did not realize this.
I'm trying to respond to the negative comments, but it's getting overwhelming...
