#pharo — Public Fediverse posts

PHARØ recently released "Depths of My Desire," a collaboration with Robbie Rosen, Rullo & Rosen, and one more cig.

This electronic dance/pop track has a laid-back feel that's complemented by Robbie's sensual vocal performance. I like how this combo gives the song a late summer/early fall vibe.

Please welcome and follow @squeak! Squeak and @pharoproject are two very cool implementations of the Smalltalk programming language and they are both here on Mastodon now. Only Cuis is missing @juanvuletich 😉

I was lucky to, by chance, get into a programming class at @fernunihagen that taught OOP using Squeak and Pharo Smalltalk, and it was the coolest and most fun programming experience ever.

AI-Generated Books, Forth & Pharo, and Why I'm Back with Common Lisp

A notebook-style essay about stumbling upon AI-generated tech books (HiTeX Press, "Robert Johnson"), the realization that beautiful design doesn't equal working code, and the journey through Smalltalk chaos to the quiet stability of Common Lisp.

Includes thoughts on:
- The "end of the internet age"
- Why I avoid publicly traded companies
- AI in music, photography, and content moderation
- Why a REPL beats bouncing windows

Fake books → real lessons → building my own tools with CLOS and CLOG.

Sad to read the illustrator of the legendary Smalltalk balloon cover for Byte magazine, Robert Tinney, died.

For @pharoproject #Smalltalk #Pharo devs:
Love the rewrite engine
But hate the matching rules?
Try BPatterns project
The pattern as a block

En même temps, je n'ai pas fini de coder su SpecToplo, la nouvelle stack graphique de #pharo (eux là: @pharoproject )
Et c'est si agréable de coder des projets qui aide la communauté

#Pyramid for #Pharo is great for exploring the #Bloc API, and then factoring your UI code based on what you discovered

@pharoproject , ma découverte du jour. J’ai pensé rapidement à Java.

Apparemment Pharo est un projet universitaire français cherchant à innover dans le programmation orientée objet mais je ne suis pas sûr dans quelles applications logicielles ça se spécialise. Tout ce qui est visuel ?

Por acaso eu tava implementando `=` e `hash` no #Pharo esses dias e realmente, até hoje a técnica é `a hash bitXor: b hash`

Looking at persistence options for #Pharo #Smalltalk today. I previously used voyage to save to #MongoDB . it worked fine.

I always wanted to use #GemTalk #GemStone, but by the time I got to persistence, I didn't have it in me to dig into that rabbit hole.

I think i will do that FIRST this time.

Are there any GemStone/S users here?

I haven't been active in #Smalltalk in several years. I have some great use cases that i want to start implementing, but I kinda want to get up to speed on what's happened in my absence.

So, I am taking a quick poll to see which #smalltalk everyone is using these days. #Pharo or #Squeak ?

Twenty something years later, and I am still dreaming of the day when I can write in #Smalltalk as a full time day job, instead of using it as my secret productivity tool.

#squeak
#pharo

I'm in Beijing for COSCON'2025, the annual open source conference in China. Please ping me if you are there also. #pharo #opensource

Quelques jours que j'ai la chance de contribuer à la prochaine stack graphique du langage de programmation #pharo #smalltalk (avec le projet Toplo).
Ça fait tellement de bien de profiter d'un peu de temps pour faire du full #opensource et de continuer d'apprendre.

@chemoelectric

Years ago, for very short period of time, I had ever explored Squeak (or Pharo, forget which one) for fun.

I was amazed that a programming language provides something similar with desktop environment and all things related with the programming language, including the tools are living inside the environment.

At the time, suddenly I remember Lisp Machine, GNU Emacs and Gnustep + Window Maker at the same time.

Although of course I realized these all are different.

So happy ! Today I achieve to work on #opensource project. The UX framework of #pharo
It was a long time I didn’t had to dig inside an unknown open source project and achieve to create a pull request!
I hope it will be accepted ( or at least reviewed with nice comments )

Comme je me motive à dev une autre appli dans un langage de programmation que je n'utilise pas du tout professionnellement, ça me fait me demander,
Pour le plaisir, est-ce que les personnes codent plus avec le langage qu'ils connaissent ou veulent surtout découvrir des nouvelles choses ?

J'ai l'impression que je change tout le temps. Je code majoritairement en #Pharo/#Smalltalk, mais pour le fun, je regarde le rust, j'ai regardé les fonctionnement de FFI, j'ai codé des trucs en C, il y a longtemps du fortran et cobol pour le fun, et du #flutter pour des applis pour ma conjointe. bref.. Faut que je me focus :p

I’d be interested in watching someone develop smalltalk tools in conjunction with LLMs. #smalltalk #pharo

@AmenZwa @programming And yes, I’m looking for such a clear UI too, less colorful than #Sqeak or #Pharo.
