Creators build worlds, visions, grand stuff. Predators take beautiful
and deep things, rip away everything they don't need or understand, shit
everywhere, and go away with the tiny bit of stuff that they wanted,
leaving a mess behind.
Projects like Squeak are a wonder at their beginnings: only creators are
interested in them, and developping them. Then they become known to a
larger circle, and after a while some people start saying: "it would be
nice if we had that large share of market". Or "Lisp is good, but there
are too many parentheses". At this point the creators should really
start to worry. The predators have entered the place.
