The opposite of a RedneckSmalltalker:
You are a LiberalPinkoCommieSmalltalker if
-
You choose to live in countries with comprehensive national health services and do not take out private health insurance even if working (undercover) in a 'city'bank
-
You support gun control
-
You travel to work by public transport
-
... and don't own a car
-
... and don't know how to drive
-
... alternatively you may cycle in
-
So that you can keep writing code while commuting
-
... except when cycling in
-
You write class comments
-
... and sometimes even method comments
-
You also write documentation (red cover optional)
-
... but not too much (save those trees!)
-
You use a neat testing framework
-
...religiously (using this word, as always, as a metaphor)
-
...even if those rednecks wrote it
-
Refuse to smalltalk with Austrians (the nationality, or the economic school? ;-)
-
...unless they commit treason
-
You think it's great that Smalltalk treats every object equally to every other object
-
... in fact, you've redefined Object== to make this the case :-)
-
You describe refactoring as "class struggle"
-
Every class is a working class
-
You dismiss SOAP-based systems, because they are only for the "chattering classes"
I think it must be significant, somehow, that this page is decidedly not funny, unlike RedneckSmalltalker.
refactoring="class struggle" is funny as hell. -- RedneckJavaProgrammer
Some conversation on what makes a political orientation Liberal was moved to WhatIsLiberal.
I think I HaveThisPattern, and I'm not at all convinced that's a good thing. :-) -- AdamBerger
