MountainWest RubyConf 2014 - But Really, You Should Learn Smalltalk
Confreaks
Noel Rappin's MountainWest RubyConf talk introduces Smalltalk to Ruby programmers. He compares the two languages' object models, blocks, 1-based arrays, simple syntax and live programming environment, and walks through sample code.
HN commenters point Rubyists and the Smalltalk-curious to it as an approachable introduction that shows the Smalltalk system browser and Pharo environment in action.
