The classes and methods that define the system are also objects and fully part of the system that they help define" -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smalltalk
- fabianholzer 11 months agoFrom Dan Ingalls "Design Principles Behind Smalltalk" (https://www.cs.virginia.edu/~evans/cs655/readings/smalltalk....):
"An operating system is a collection of things that don't fit into a language. There shouldn't be one."
