Outta the Army I got a Bachelors of Science in Physics
at Guilford College a wonderful place to be! We all have
our pride! Hello Somebody! Is that an Amen? Praise Be to God!
God is Good. Ask any of the homeless, when you get there, in
sacrifice and submission. Is God Good? You may want to look for
the biggest man in the room, on first arrival to a new circle,
before you do anything else. He will tell you what to do. Heh.
He may tell you to dance. Oops.

Hi Ron,
Thank you so much for the kind words and the extension of
your hand towards myself. In no fashion has it been all
bad. I really need to tell you, right now, that I did not
do any work on VMMaker. Was there extensions to same from
the VMMakerTool? Perhaps, I do not recall. I only built
the Tool, not the Maker. Good grief, I agree, that's a
whole other level!
I feel the same about the opportunities I had with you. I
am still dorking with ASN1, currently broken, trying to
add a "Class" Application Class tag. Missing an explicit
context in on of the directions. Memory and Trauma are
definitely linked. That's where the flashbacks come from.

I think I may be done. PromisesLocal is broken.
ParrotTalk is broken. ASN1 is broken. SSL is broken.
PromisesRemote is broken. Sigh. Fuck it. Someone else will
have to pick it up. 20 years of work! I am hitting deep
blue ocean, on my way to Morocco, by way of the Azores!

I "Will be in a life of bliss, In a Garden on high. The
Fruits whereof"...
Al Haqqah (69)
[The Sure Reality!
What is the Sure
Reality?
And what will make
thee realise what the Sure Reality is?
The Thamud and the
'Ad People (branded) as false the Stunning Calamity!
But the Thamud,-
they were destroyed by a terrible Storm of thunder and
lightning!
And the 'Ad, they
were destroyed by a furious Wind, exceedingly violent;
He made it rage
against them seven nights and eight days in succession:
so that thou couldst see the (whole) people lying
prostrate in its (path), as they had been roots of
hollow palm-trees tumbled down!
Then seest thou any
of them left surviving?
And Pharaoh, and
those before him, and the Cities Overthrown, committed
habitual Sin.
And disobeyed (each)
the messenger of their Lord; so He punished them with an
abundant Penalty.
We, when the water
(of Noah's Flood) overflowed beyond its limits, carried
you (mankind), in the floating (Ark),
That We might make
it a Message unto you, and that ears (that should hear
the tale and) retain its memory should bear its
(lessons) in remembrance.
Then, when one blast
is sounded on the Trumpet,
And the earth is
moved, and its mountains, and they are crushed to powder
at one stroke,-
On that Day shall
the (Great) Event come to pass.
And the sky will be
rent asunder, for it will that Day be flimsy,
And the angels will
be on its sides, and eight will, that Day, bear the
Throne of thy Lord above them.
That Day shall ye be
brought to Judgment: not an act of yours that ye hide
will be hidden.
Then he that will be
given his Record in his right hand will say: "Ah here!
Read ye my Record!
"I did really
understand that my Account would (One Day) reach me!"
And he will be in a
life of Bliss,
The Fruits whereof (will hang in
bunches) low and near.
"Eat ye and drink ye, with full
satisfaction; because of the (good) that ye sent
before you, in the days that are gone!"
And he that will be given his Record
in his left hand, will say: "Ah! Would that my Record
had not been given to me!
"And that I had never realised how my
account (stood)!
"Ah! Would that (Death) had made an
end of me!
"Of no profit to me has been my
wealth!
"My power has perished from me!"...
(The stern command will say): "Seize
ye him, and bind ye him,
"And burn ye him in the Blazing Fire.
"Further, make him march in a chain,
whereof the length is seventy cubits!
"This was he that would not believe in
Allah Most High.
"And would not encourage the feeding
of the indigent!
"So no friend hath he here this Day.
"Nor hath he any food except the
corruption from the washing of wounds,
"Which none do eat but those in sin."
So I do call to witness what ye see,
And what ye see not,
That this is verily the word of an
honoured messenger;
It is not the word of a poet: little
it is ye believe!
Nor is it the word of a soothsayer:
little admonition it is ye receive.
(This is) a Message sent down from the
Lord of the Worlds.
And if the messenger were to invent
any sayings in Our name,
We should certainly seize him by his
right hand,
And We should certainly then cut off
the artery of his heart:
Nor could any of you withhold him
(from Our wrath).
But verily this is a Message for the
Allah-fearing.
And We certainly know that there are
amongst you those that reject (it).
But truly (Revelation) is a cause of
sorrow for the Unbelievers.
But verily it is Truth of assured
certainty.
So glorify the name of thy Lord Most
High.

Hi
Rob,
I'm
so sorry you felt that way. I know you have had major
issues, you have said the same yourself. I'm always
happy to see you come back even after long absences.
You are a brilliant coder and it has been my distinct
pleasure to work with you on Cryptography! Thank you
for all you have done and indeed you are responsible
for adding significant value to Squeak and the
community.
We
all work on code and it's easy to work your ass off on
something to make it work and forget where it
originated. We all contribute in large and small ways
to everything. If you started VMMaker thank you! It
is definitely something a lot of us use. I remember
learning all about it a long long time ago before I
realized that while I could understand it and I could
use it, the people that work on the VM are a level
higher than me. I just make apps!
I
remember getting in an argument with Andreas about
adding methods to collection. "WE DON"T NEED more
methods in Collection we need to remove most of them
and make it easier!" I argued with him about the value
over and over but he insisted that they just didn't
add enough value. I could have been put off. I could
have assumed that Andreas didn't like me but I would
have been very wrong! I was really honored to get the
chance to work with him and we became great friends.
Of course I added my methods to the code we were
working on together and was so thrilled when he used
my methods for his own code.
I don't know what
happened with VMMaker but again thank you for
your participation in it.. I wanted to take a minute
to thank you for your work and to let you know it is
my honor to work with you too! I hope that you can
come to terms with your past and that you get the help
you need for your CPTSD.
Everything is
possible, the past is gone, but the future is still
yours to shape. I wish the past was set in stone but
even that moves and slips. I was talking to my wife
about a party we attended: "Remember in 2000 we were
at the party and counted down the new year and someone
hit the breaker and killed the lights! We were all
talking about what would happen in the year 2000,
would everything break!" Great story except that I
hadn't met my wife yet! The past is only what we
remember but the future is something we have control
over. Peace, calm, happyness, they are all hard to
come by but they are possible. I wish you success in
finding what makes your future better.
I'm sorry about the
bad things that have happened to you in the past. As
far as I'm concerned, you are welcomed here!
All the best,
Ron Teitelbaum

I wrote to the #general Squeak Slack channel:
What
a complete larcenous bastard. 20 years ago,
this month, published it as his own work.
And been against me ever since. My CPTSD
(100% veteran service-connected) comes with
an exquisitely sensitive deception meter.
There are those who shunned me and
ostracized me and made me feel MOST
UNWELCOME. For 20 years. My delusions kick
in and I start suspecting back channel
communications against me. My love for
Squeak conflicted with what I knew was
happening. but I hung in there and worked on
Cryptography, work with a group of great
people and that I am satisfied with its
added value to Squeak. For 20 years I KNEW
people were against me in the community. I
cannot describe how negatively this affected
me. My third suicide attempt, in 2007 I
jumped off the roof of a 6 story apartment
building and broke my back along with many
bones. God did not want me to die, yet, so I
lived. This deception and ostracism is most
well highlighted by the taking credit for my
work, without attribution. He is a complete
tool. SHAME!
I
do not know the degree to which he spoke
against me. I imagine it
was ever since 2000. Delusions! What is
real? I knew not. So much torment! AGONY!
They do not welcome me! They are trying to
chase me off! Good grief, Charlie Brown.
Severely
exacerbated my CPTSD! I kept trying to kill
myself because of it! I thought I had done
something egregiously wrong. Whatever it was
it had to be my fault. I was not feeling the
love, even from myself.

You may wish to hear John's judgement on the matter. He was right there

If you are not humble you will be humiliated, and brought low.

I am curious. Who was the original author of the VMMaker Tool?
That would be me; back in exobox days. Written along with the original VMMaker and intended to be an example of clean, tidy, morphic usage. I've no idea if anyone ever uses it now, since running it via scripting has proven more valuable.
