«The first true object-oriented language. But it seems to me Smalltalk is pretty much a forgotten language.» Why do so many people kill Smalltalk so fast? I could give so many URLs to illustrate how Smalltalk has a stable and growing commun

Which was itself a copy of an older game called SFCave, which was a copy of some much older game I can't remember... I once wrote a similar game featuring a penguin swimming through an underwater cave ( http://reggaeperxics.c

Yes, but there have been thousands of clones of SFCave and only this one has been that successful. I think I recall the original one featured an helicopter and ran on an Amiga, or something of the sort. Actually, the first thing I did when

Well indeed, but the exact same URL, only submitted one month later, should at least have reverted some karma on the user who submitted the project originally. Especially if the project was of his own creation...

Actually, I never understood how promotion works here. As an example, I submitted a website about a project of our own a couple months ago and got 4 points. Never made it past the "new" page. A month later, someone else submitted

«Flanary believes it's paramount that if someone is criminally charged on the basis of his words, a jury needs to see all the words.» Wait, but shouldn't the case be that noone can be charged on the basis of his words?

Actually, other stuff came up, but after a first trip in 2003 I almost did. Got friends who went there to study and another friend who was exiled there as a political refugee.

Could be that, but that would indeed be a misinterpretation. Could also be that people who don't agree with a reasoning tend to try to twist other people's words to make their arguments look wrong. Anyway, I'll try to be stup

Exactly! The US (or the land of freedom), doesn't let you in if they find out you've as much as visited Cuba. That's why Cuba gives you your visa in hand (as opposed to stuck in a page in your passport), so that you can still

I don't think both countries are run in the same way, I know they are not. What I don't know is how you inferred I did think in that way from my comment.

Unlike in the US, where the government doesn't spy on the citizens, everybody has free access to education, free universal healthcare, guaranteed housing and... oh wait.
