    Every minute to run tests? My ass! Try every five seconds! :-) Unit tests should run fast so you can get immediate feedback. A minute is just too long.

    We built an entire semiconductor fab at TI using ST in the 90's. Although not with TI any more, we continue to build a software framework used by the semiconductor equipment manufacturing industry. It is embedded code operating million dollar machines, processing silicon with rare metals, flammable gasses and high voltage. This is a dangerous environment for software and represents, IMHO, one of the outstanding successes of ST.

    Liked his definition of professionalism: Someone who, in the face of pressure, falls back on their rules and discipline, and operates without fear.

    I agree. When it comes to simplicity and ease of use Smalltalk language and its browsers are IMHO better than everything I've seen so far for Java or C#, Ruby, Python, etc.

    Well, Pharo is quite on its way to the spotlight! Anyway, having been programming with a lot of languages, Smalltalk still feels the best of the bunch. Like in "Pleasure to program".
