Mugs 'n' stuff - logo and message

So does anyone have ideas for what to print on our mugs etc? The pharo lighthouse logo and a web address? An inspirational pharo/ Smalltalk phrase maybe?
It would be cool if i were on the train and someone saw the sticker on my laptop and asked me about it. For that we'd need more than just the logo.

Thoughts?

Hi all,

So does anyone have ideas for what to print on our mugs etc? The pharo
lighthouse logo and a web address? An inspirational pharo/ Smalltalk phrase
maybe?

laptop and asked me about it. For that we'd need more than just the logo.

Thoughts?

I made some experiments a while ago on this front but I never finished or made it real yet.

Something like attached and my idea of phrase:

Be light on fun with Pharo ;-)

Cheers,

Luc

Being that 'Pharo' is very easily confused with the Pharos of ancient
Egypt, perhaps we can capitalize on that with some catchy phrase like:
'Build your best pyramid with the beacon of Pharo'

Re: Mugs 'n' stuff - logo and message

How about this phrase: 'Let Pharo set you free', with the allusion being
the biblical Pharo of Exodus (except this time around he's a really good
guy).
It's definitely a conversation starter...

Hi Jeff,

This is not fully related but in https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/?group_id=1299

under "Media" category you can find lots of icons, logos, etc.

I don't know… sounds a bit strange.

"Enlightened Development" is over the top but fits with the "Pharo" moniker.

"Enlightened Developer" ever more I'd say.

"See the Light" also, but kinda cool.

The problem is that disparaging others isn't really working well.

"There is light at the end of the tunnel (and it is not a no exit sign...)"

"The Innovation Accelerator"

"More Power to You"

Maybe any from the Pharo manifesto[1]?

Pharo manifesto

Better for the better
Beauty to learn from
Not backward compatible
Clean, lean and fast

BTW, is the manifesto in the new issue tracker's wiki? i didn't find it...

Thanks Mariano. The logo will be core in our design I suspect

How about some code.
For a mug:

Object subclass: #Mug
instanceVariableNames: 'coffee milk sugar'
classVariableNames: 'Coffees'
poolDictionaries: ''
category: 'HotDrink'

I haven't checked the syntax, but something like:

|aMug|
aMug := Mug new fill.
aMug isEmpty isFalsle: [

Some wild suggestions:
1. Pharo: Where your code lives on
2. Pharo: Simply perfect
3. Pharo: Concise & Precise
4. Pharo: Make peace with your design
5. Pharo: Where design morphs into perfect code
6. Pharo: Where the bugs morph into butterflies
7. Pharo: The KISS of OOP (KISS referring to 'keep it simple, stupid'
--introduced by Butler Lampson IIRC.)
8. Pharo: The breeze of simplicity

My first thought was "Pharo, shining the way"
but perhaps also "Pharo new light shine"
and then of course you need an easter egg in Pharo such that executing
that statement in a Workspace brings up some cool animation.

Scene: an old tall-ship plastered with stickers of other programming
languages being driven by a storm towards the rocks!!!
Everyone on board running around in disarray.
From the side a bright beam of light cuts through the mist, calming the
waters along an escape path towards a tall gleaming lighthouse and a
bountiful bay of palm trees, topless natives....
eerk! hmmmm.... just maybe a bit over the top?

Egypt reference is a bit of a stretch.

As well as mugs and larger stickers for the outside of a laptop, it
would be nice to have a very-small sticker much like Tier 1
manufacturers put on the inside of laptops...

I like this one, but seems like it needs another part to complement it.

I heard a rumor that the Pharo/Squeak image contains some core object
instances that have been in existence back to the 1980's (eg nil, true,
false). (Clarification anyone?)

Just brainstorming...
* Pharo: Immortal objects since 198x

hey! this is fun!

The problem is that Pharo (I guess Pharo 4) will bootstrap from scratch….
