Smalltalk Best Practice PatternsTheir words
Smalltalk Best Practice Patterns. True, Kent Beck is better known for his later work, which is excellent too. But Smalltalk Best Practice Patterns is particularly strong on coding style. I learned a lot by just reading the code examples. Small tweaks to names and abstractions add up. No one captures that better than Kent.

But, somebody still has to build those lower-level abstractions and from lower-level components. Somebody's got to implement the cloud services.

So the question is how do I refactor all the abstractions so that I'm not I have to arrange it once and hit go. The name of the game is how can you get more agents running for longer periods of time without your involvement doing stuff on your behalf?

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
