Couldn't sleep this morning, so I decided to clean up and publish my Smalltalk-80 VM, which is now named Verdigrist.

https://codeberg.org/cliffle/verdigrist

It's not complete, but it's complete enough to poke around most of the default environment, and it appears to be significantly faster than the other "toy" (bluebook-based) implementations.

I also find it easier to understand, because I introduced types, eliminated global variables, and ensured that interpreter state is only accessible in the states where it's well defined.

Try it out and experience 1983's future!

You might know me as edcrypt from elsewhere.
Experimenting with migrating to my own place here.

I'm Dani's parent, happily married and smug about it, I like weird music, I work on tech.

Collected this weekend's updates to my Smalltalk-80 VM into a new wasm build. (You may need to shift-reload it to get it to work if you've visited before.)

There's now a speed selector to experience what was considered "barely usable" back in 1983 (5000 bytecodes/sec, not remotely usable by modern standards). And the VM is complete enough to run "Benchmark testStandardTests."

If you crank up the speed knob (and have enough host CPU) the standard tests complete in 537 ms, which is pretty darn fast, and compares favorably with Rochus Keller's optimized C++ VM, despite my rather naive display routines.

Der alljährliche Ehrenamtsempfang steht an.
Wieder einmal zwei linke Hände beim Schminken. Memo an mich: ich.kann. es. einfach. nicht! Wechsele gefühlt 20 mal die Kleidung. Aufräumen musste ich ja auch so dringend in meiner ätzenden Bude!

Alles Coping-Mechanismen, um mich vor der #Reizüberflutung, die gleich anstehen wird zu schützen: #Smalltalk bis zum Erbrechen, zahlreiche fremde Gesichter, die du auch erstmal wieder neu lernen musst einzuschätzen,
stetiges inneres Abwägen, was du wem

@sergio_101 I absolutely agree . Web Development is about the frontend These days - Seaside is not an optimal fit for that model. I wonder what else we hav e in the #smalltalk toolbox that is widely adopted and maintained…
