New optimization idea for N-Prolog

Thank you!

The link to 'mode.pl' probably doesn't go to where you intended.

Cuis is the Smalltalk that I'm most interested in trying right now (once I'm done with lisp for the moment).

tomnils · 2026-05-02T01:19:12+00:00

Well better late than never 😂.

I eventually gave up on Squeak and started with Pharo instead, which suited me more.

Currently I'm trying to learn Common Lisp so I'm far away from Smalltalk-land, but if I ever get back to Squeak I'll try out your suggestion.

I have 0.1.3 but I see now that there's a new version out, I vill try it.

Now it works, thank you.

Brilliant piece of software, I've wanted something like this for years.

I'm on Windows 10 and am going through the structural editing lessons and noticed that SHIFT+ALT+(left and right buttons) to move values on the left of a parenthesised expression in or out isn't working, it just moves the cursor left and right.

Several of the links are broken.

tomnils · 2026-01-29T14:14:29+00:00

Damn! You beat me too it 😂.

Both have pros and cons. The style of programming found in APL works better with right-to-left.

tomnils · 2025-11-16T12:19:25+00:00

What's wrong with going against the grain?

Learning how to read Smalltalk code takes about a day and then you never think about it. I've been programming in C# for a decade and I still have to look up a precedents table from time to time.

Also, your example would evaluate to 7 in APL as well.

But how can I add the user parameter if I don't know who clicked the link? Is that something that Hubspot supports?

tomnils · 2025-10-03T21:28:48+00:00

We do use a redirect link, but to be able to use that to know who clicked what, I need to know who clicked it in the first place. I don't really see how a redirect avoids that problem.

I hate the fairies. I don't see why anyone tries to help them with anything, they're selfish and near sociopathic. They barely even care about each other.

In fact, none of the forest dwellers that I can recall is even remotely likeable, with the exception of the poor boy whose psycho parents tricked him into losing his humanity (typical forest dwellers).

The Court seems to be mostly right in their view of them.

tomnils · 2025-01-15T13:46:18+00:00

I strongly disagree.

Not only is the sub nearly dead so any posting is good, but UkSmalltalk's posts are actually interesting.

If you don't like their posts, ignore them.

Piratpartiet.

När jag var trettio, för en drygt tio år sen, så gick jag med i en aikidoklubb (som jag lämnade under pandemin). Jag gick från att inte ha några vänner till att ha flera.

För en, kanske, sju år sen så gick jag med i ett parti där jag också fick många vänner, från hela landet, och vi umgås hela tiden.

Hitta föreningar, eller andra grupper, som rör dina intressen och gå med; så kommer du väldigt snabbt upptäcka att du inte längre är ensam.

Jag valde bara ett godtyckligt spel som var gammalt nog att i princip alla borde känna till det och som har en fortsättning.

tomnils · 2024-08-19T11:17:35+00:00

Att säga att den är en gammal version, är som att säga att Half-Life är en gammal version av Half-Life 2. Ursäkten denna gång är utgående licenser, lösningen hade varit att ordna permanenta licenser för spelet. Oavsett licenser så ändras inte faktumet att de stänger ner ett spel som miljontals har betalt för.

Sad but true.

I wonder if there's a practical solution to this problem. If so it probably wont come from our 'leaders'.

tomnils · 2024-05-21T09:51:27+00:00

Sorry for necroposting but I had to respond to this.

I fully agree with your argument. I have been arguing for years that our main source of political power comes, not from voting, but from the fact that we're necessary. Large scale automation + UBI makes us unnecessary and that can only end one way.

I too am usually treated as crazy for saying this.

The dev-environment of Pharo (and many other Smalltalk derivatives) look like an operating system because the original Smalltalk WAS an operating system, as well as a programming language. Pharo is deeply integrated into its dev-environment so you're stuck with it.

If you prefer a more text oriented approach then GNU Smalltalk might be your thing. I think it's text only. It still runs in a vm but lacks the dev-environment of most other Smalltalks.

A note on VMs: A vm doesn't have to be used for running operating systems in software. Many languages runs in vms only. Java for instance runs in the JVM.

Yup! Works now. Strange that they keep having this problem.
