Re: [Pharo-users] Code of Conduct

I agreed that the last decision should be on the ones who made the bulk of the work. But I don't see relationship between a code of conduct and not being able to talk about code or contributions quality. Just looking at the FAQ of the original CoC that originated the whole think, I see a lot of ans

Re: [Pharo-users] Code of Conduct

This is not a question of left vs right. It's a question of authoritarian vs libertarian. And this is very relevant to the community. It's also not a question of democracy vs central authority. It's a question of vs παρρησία vs goodspeak. And this is very relevant to the community also. Pharo is

[Pharo-users] FFI beginner question

I am developing a Smalltalk interface to an existing C library which I intend to make generally available. Naturally I am doing this in my own Smalltalk system first, where it's unsurprisingly easy for me. But when I have it working, I'd like to make a Pharo port available. I have never used the

Re: [Pharo-users] Code of Conduct

My point was that this community, as a the big majority of FLOSS ones, is not a democracy and *not* having a democracy has shown its benefits in human endeavors like science, technology, hackerspaces and so on. I'll keep the rest of the conversation with you on the source code repository and the P

Re: [Pharo-users] Code of Conduct

This isn't science, this is a community. We don't need a CoC, there haven't been any problems on this list regarding nazis or whatever. This is just a group of people trying to enforce their political ideologies on everyone else. Let's just remove the CoC altogether and just replace it with one lin

Re: [Pharo-users] Code of Conduct

There is no data to support such supposed majority. But even so, free, libre, open source communities are not democracies. Imagine the quality of code or argumentation based on perceived majorities? If science would be a democracy, the earth would be "still" flat. On 22/09/19 6:04 p. m., Steve Que

Re: [Pharo-users] Code of Conduct

I would say that the majority don't seem to be in favor of it. This should be a democracy. On Sun, Sep 22, 2019 at 1:53 PM Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas < offray.l...@mutabit.com> wrote: > > On 22/09/19 3:38 p. m., Steve Quezadas wrote: > > > The discussion so far shows that CoC is not a distract

[Pharo-users] Playground - retrieving pages from play-cache

I have a mystery when using the 'Play Pages' button on the top right of the playground. One particular file, which has been through several versions, never appears in the drop-down list on clicking this button. It is in the play-cache, and I access it by opening the file from the file explorer with

Thank you Craig Latta. I see there is a caffeine.js.org/pharo "This page is an early demo of running Pharo 6 with the SqueakJS virtual machine. It gets far enough now that I think several people in the Pharo community could fix the rest of the bugs (mostly missing primitives). " I'm trying it but
