Hi guys
as part of a controlled experience I'm going over all the changes in MC done in
squeak since pharo creation and
I saw that Squeak has

levente did the following in squeak
- replaced MCMethodDefinition's Definitions class variable with a class
instance variable. The cached definitions are no longer registered for
finalization.
- a bit of cleanup around MCDefinition's Instances class variable
And I like the idea that we do
Interesting posting. But i don't think, that this is the right model for
refactoring, where a lot of 'depreciated classes' (reason: copyright,
restructuring, replacement, creating 'orthogonality', whatever) cause much
collateral damages in hundreds of packages, like it is in pharo at the
moment.
Well it's a somewhat longer story. I have some code to interface via the
serial lines. And I want to do that on Windows and Linux. So far so
good. Now my code for interfacing to the serial lines works fine on
Windows. But it fails on Linux here's the debug.log from Pharo:

I don't understand. Fuel holding multiple streams ? why? for what?
e.g. for source code. Imagine storing Monticello packages in Fuel so that
the source code is stored in the Fuel file and doesn't have to be written
to the changes file. Instead, a more powerful SourceFilesArray (actually a

Hi guys,
Again one interesting topic for this weekend to discuss. David Nolen, a
Lisp and JavaScript guy posted in his blog an article titled Illiterate
Programming [1] where he said:

Well... functional programming is hard and not everybody really understands
it... structured programming is hard and not everybody really understood
it... hmm at the end, programming is hard :-)
He gives no reason about his stament nor demonstration of it neither...
so he has a feeling, me too
That's if the debugger still works =:0 Good idea though.

Yes, programming is hard. It's even harder if one is poorly educated and not
well read. I don't expect that everyone will have Smalltalk experience, but I
would expect someone nearing completion of a PhD in computer science to have at
least _heard_ of Smalltalk and Alan Kay. I recently met a

Let we remember that Smalltalk was designed for a kids, so programming
is hard anyway is in my opinion just too simplified answer.
While teaching new Smalltalkers I noticed that those without any
programming experience got it faster, specially comparing to those with
a relational DB experience.
I think it's worse than that. You are correct that relational storage has
become a religion. Most deny the flaws and can't even conceive of an
alternative, let alone whether an alternative might be better for a given
project. But again, this comes down to education, broadening of the mind,
I could not agree more... most programmers don't know what a is closure
(for example), have no idea of who is Alan Kay (or worse, Alonso Curch)
and they only care about how to use Spring's dependency injection without
understanding the real design flaw, or the new Hibernate annotations that

Frankly I do not care about what other people are thinking.

I had this crazy idea, what instead of buffering at the application
level I use the native buffer of the socket? I would be doing more or
less this:
set TCP_CORK to 1
set TCP_NODELAY to 0
do individual writes
set TCP_CORK to 0
set TCP_NODELAY to 1
do last write
goto 1

Hi,
Is it possible to use the VB-Regexp package to construct a single regular
expression that ensures a string is alphanumeric and contains both at least
one number and alphabetic character.
Looking at the regexp package and documentation it doesn't appear so. In

Just thinking laterally (since I don't have the experience to apply to
the analysis), a practical business solution is to throw hardware at
the problem - particularly for a legacy application on old hardware.
