The interesting thing here is: why do big companies don't need to keep their talents? Does bureaucracy compensate for lack of talent? And vice versa? Does this also mean that you can innovate without talent?

I was deliberately excluding the constructor situation. I should have made that clearer in my previous comment. I think the way out of the constructor mess is not to require them at all. I do think the Object.getPrototypeOf approach is fea

Yeah, it gets really hairy, really quickly. Beyond the need for calling the constructor (which I'm currently viewing it as an unnecessary hidrance [ objects are already initialized]), Object.getPrototypeOf may provide a way out - but may

Maybe I overlooked, but is there support for "super.method()" or something along those lines?

Yeah, but would you be willing to read and develop, say Cassandra, in ed? I, for one, wouldn't. One more thing: would you be able to?

Are arbitrary rss feeds recognized? [edit:] Seems like rss, not atom feeds, are recognized.

Practically you need some desicion making control structure (cond, if) and an emulation of read/write tape (arrays)

The same philosophy is applied in the Seaside framework for Smalltalk. See for example [1]. [1]: http://onsmalltalk.com/page-templates-and-seaside

Well, I have to argue that it's not the same pattern. I think the problem is that you still like to believe that js has classes, which it doesn't: js has got objects only. That it also has constructor is an (admitted?) historical mistake. J

I don't see how Object.create goes against the grain of the lang. On the contrary, `new' was bolt on to make js look like classical oo languages. I have found, in toy and exploratory projects at least, that using variations on Object.create

Well, i'm not sure about that. Aren't we expected to be professionals and act like ones on any given job? Should we just eschew Knuth and express ourselves? Don't think so. OTOH, it seems like something is clearly wrong here since, we are h

It's my understanding that JSqueak was (is?) just a toy. OTOH, redline aims to be a full blown implementation of smalltalk that integrates with the jvm like jruby, scala, clojure, etc do. As you can see from the github repo, it's still pre
