Sorry, all these articles are from a single person with the messianic syndrome who named himself "Mr Smalltalk". He absolutely rejects any complaints about his activities (he repeatedly told us that we do not understand marketing) and he will never be able to write something more solid because he actually is not a Smalltalk programmer and does not know it well. He is making a really bad service.

If I'm not mistaken, he created the following blog: https://smalltalk.tech.blog/.

It contains "solid" articles from Leandro Caniglia and Lorenzo Schiavina.

It also contains an article about his recent programming competition (currently under way): https://smalltalk.tech.blog/2020/02/08/the-results-are-in/.

This is one heck of a competition, and it's a great promotion for Pharo!

It is not normal to talk about yourself in third person.

How well does one need to know Smalltalk before they can promote it? I'm a Smalltalk newbie; I've only been using Smalltalk on and off for the past few years. But I absolutely love it!

So I'm telling all my friends and colleagues to give Smalltalk a try. Does that invalidate my efforts?
