and started looking at Smalltalk.
Downloaded the Squeak/Smalltalk[^] IDE and associated docs.
I've heard a lot about Smalltalk in the past but didn't think much of it, but after kicking the tires I am really impressed. The Squeak IDE is very powerful and I think I might try a small project and see how it goes.

I watched a video posted here last week about SmallTalk/Squeak...interesting, but I don't have the time. Good luck!

After a week of pouring over code, and working closely with the authors of two different projects whose source I incorporated into mine, I've finally got my new graphics library running on IoT:
"BengalLovinAss" is the name of a fellow moderator at a site I moderate.[^]
I made a png for her using my lib, and then some smart aleck decided to tell me to put it on a cheap low resolution TFT.
Well I tried. The ESP32 threw a stack tantrum. I massaged the code for another day, and this is the result.
I feel like I just trekked through a mountain range.

I saw that image in some article you've posted elsewhere (well, here on CP) and I thought to myself, I'd love to see this on one of those IoT devices.
And there it is.
To the average person, a picture is a picture is a picture and wouldn't think much of it. I've never done development on those types of devices myself, but I can appreciate the sort of hell I'm sure you had to go through to get this working.
I don't care what anyone says, this is impressive work.

Anyone know of a site where we can at least setup a group and stay in touch - I think it's very inconsiderate of whoever is running the show to leave us in the dark like this. WE ARE FAMILY

Is groups.io anything like what you're thinking of? A couple of mailing lists I was on moved there when yahoo killed groups.

If CP disappears at some point, I'm am hoping that it will be after I've disappeared. 
Though I agree, it would be nice to hear from the new leadership as to the future of CP.

I don't know how you do it with just two letters in the wrong place - are you psychic ?

I can't even read my own mind ... 
Today was lucky: I use three words to cover all vowels (plus Y) and the most common consonants - if I get no green or yellow on the first word, I try the second. (I play in "hard mode" which prevents me entering words without letters I've already discovered)
Today, I got a vowel and a consonant, so I looked for a word containing them plus another vowel with common consonants - and I was very lucky!
You understand I'm trying really hard to not give hints here?

It does matter, as I sometimes read the lounge before I get to the wordle. I am on the west coast of Canada so it is only 8:20 AM here. I still have another 16 hours to solve it. Definitely not βthis time of the dayβ. Posting the solution or even hints before everyone has a chance would ruin the fun.

And that was over-confidence after a good start. Abandoned letter finding and went straight into word guessing on the second try. My last guess was lucky as there were still several possibilities.
