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 ?

Pharo
33.3%
Squeak
33.3%
Cuis-Smalltalk
33.3%
Poll ended at .

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.
Today, I worked half day, then had a seminar. I feel a bit better now. Recently, I fall asleep to #smalltalk #squeak #pharo videos. I want to explore the object-oriented paradigm in a pure form. I know what all are saying about #oop and I am not going to preach OOP, but still want to learn. #program

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
