Just look at the shenanigans Meta pulled in Brazil election.

Social media explains the Fermi Paradox. Once it arises technical civilizations regress.

Sad news, I put a lot of hope in this project. At least we keep the base interpreter improvements they brought along, and we still have PyPy. CPython JIT is dead. Long live PyPy!

Pharo MOOC is still based around Pharo 8. Any prospects to refresh It to the latest version?
