Paolo AmorosoDon't mind me, I'm just poking around this newfangled OOP thing with LOOPS on Medley Interlisp. LOOPS (Lisp Object-Oriented Programming System) is the object extension of Interlisp.<a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/interlisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#interlisp</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/lisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#lisp</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/oop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#oop</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a>

Paolo AmorosoThe LOOPS primer, published in 1987, captured well the essence of exploratory programming in Lisp:<blockquote>The LOOPS interface provides both a programming tool and a thinking tool. As you develop a new system, each preliminary version provides an object for thought and discussion. The preliminary versions are a crucial part of the design process.</blockquote>LOOPS (Lisp Object-Oriented Programming System) is the OOP extension of Interlisp.<a href="http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/xerox/interlisp-d/198510_Koto/3102242_Xerox_LOOPS_A_Friendly_Primer_Mar87.pdf#page=60" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/xerox/interlisp-d/198510_Koto/3102242_Xerox_LOOPS_A_Friendly_Primer_Mar87.pdf#page=60</a><a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/interlisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#interlisp</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/oop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#oop</a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/lisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#lisp</a>

Aral BalkanNew Kitten Release 🥳<a href="https://kitten.small-web.org" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://kitten.small-web.org</a>(Run `kitten update` to update your dev machines. Production machines will automatically update in a couple of hours.)• You can now add a generic script block to your markdown pages (see <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/114432417394114105" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/114432417394114105</a>)• Markdown pages can now be `KittenPage` instances and attach `KittenComponent` instances (so you get a full server-side component hierarchy with an event-based workflow; ideal for authenticated pages where you can be use only the author of the page will be accessing them and thus the additional memory and processing overhead are not issues. Isn’t the Small Web great? Only having instances of one makes it possible to optimise so many things for the human experience instead of vertical scale of the data farming machine.)• Two new examples showcase the new features: <a href="https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/branch/main/examples/streaming-html/markdown-script-simple-components" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/branch/main/examples/streaming-html/markdown-script-simple-components</a> and <a href="https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/branch/main/examples/streaming-html/markdown-kitten-components" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/branch/main/examples/streaming-html/markdown-kitten-components</a>• Attributes with object values are no longer serialised into the DOM (but your components’ render functions will continue to receive them, of course.) This is because only string values make sense for attributes in the context of the HTML DOM. (You can still, of course, have stringified representations of objects in attributes, as used by the `data` attribute to pass data from nodes to event handers on the server.)<a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Kitten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kitten</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SmallWeb</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SmallTech</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/kittenRelease" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#kittenRelease</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/markdown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#markdown</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/scripting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scripting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/OOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OOP</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/eventModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#eventModel</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#web</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/dev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dev</a>

Aral BalkanNew Kitten update<a href="https://kitten.small-web.org" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://kitten.small-web.org</a>• Added `remove()` method to kitten.Component class. Use this when working with live pages and components and you want to remove a component from the page (or its parent). It will handle removing event listeners for you so you don’t end up with any memory leaks.• Improved `update()` method so it similarly removes listeners on child components before updating the component itself in case you have class-based child components that will be reinstantiated on render.• Updated the `send()` methods on `page.everyone` and `page.everyoneElse` so you can pass a swap target to insert the element being streamed to the page before, after, asFirstChildOf, or asLastChildOf another. (This was already there for the page.send() but now the two broadcast objects have the same consistent interface.The @small-web/kitten npm package (Kitten’s types package) has also been updated to version 5.1.0 to reflect the latest changes.(Remember that the new class and event-based page and component model is still experimental and largely undocumented and fully backwards compatible with the classic functional way of authoring your page routes and components.)Enjoy!:kitten:💕<a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Kitten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kitten</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SmallWeb</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/SmallTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SmallTech</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/OOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OOP</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/eventModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#eventModel</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/StreamingHTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreamingHTML</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/hypermedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hypermedia</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/WebSockets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WebSockets</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/htmx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#htmx</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/NodeJS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NodeJS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/Javascript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Javascript</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/HTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HTML</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/CSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CSS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#web</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/dev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dev</a>

CourtDunder method / operator overloading question for <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#python</a> <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/oop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#oop</a>If you use __add__ to modify an attribute, I understand that convention is to return a new object with the updated attribute. But what if the object has other attributes that aren’t related to the operation?class ex(): def __init__(self, a, b): self.a = a self.b = b def __add__(self, o): self.a += o.aWhat should add return? Thank you!
