I reference that in the talk that as I was composing the slide deck, I kept bouncing back to "My Half-life With Perl".
I think I even reference that in the talk... Dart is everything I wanted from Perl 6, which is why I'm happy to be coding in Dart now.
I had quite a few of those animal shirts, along with many Stonehenge party shirts. Gave most of them away since I wear collared shirts now that I'm a grown-up.
Inline::C did a good job of reducing the barrier to entry for C code.
I believe Perl got Unicode to a usable state long before Ruby. Ironic, given Ruby's origins.
Why do people who should know better still use EST during the summer. It's EDT until November, please. And also, let's please get RID OF DST. It's a mistake that has gone on too long.
This is a fair observation. At most, my FLOSS Weekly fame was still propelling my career, but I also gave that up after 13 years. It took a while to find my Dart/Flutter groove, but here I am.
Indeed, I started programming early (age 9 or so) and have always seemed to have a talent for programming, but also just a sense that it's fun to work out how to express steps in terms of smaller reusable steps.
Have you seen my "parse JSON in a single Perl Regex"? https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=995856
Technically not opcodes, but internal Data Structures. A serializer was written for that, to permit ".pmc files".
It has been said that "the Perl compiler is based on yacc, lex, smoke, and mirrors."
I could. :)
"You'll recognize them because they're labeled with 'Whole Foods'". :)
dartlang.org is the modern heir-apparent to the Smalltalk language, backed by Google, and gaining a lot of traction.
Or, get the best of both worlds. ToroDB puts a mongo wire protocol in front of Postgres, which outperforms mongo significantly on the same hardware. Plus, you can get read-only views on the Pg side to join with…
VeraCrypt is being very actively developed, including fixing a number of bugs that were found in TrueCrypt. Watch my interview with the main developer here, including some analysis of the code showing that perhaps…
It's not about being taking personally. It's just a fact: I wrote (with Larry Wall) the first book about Perl. And then the second book about Perl, which became the seminal teaching guide. If that doesn't deserve a note…
Not mad, just trying to set facts right.
Seriously? you're going there? My first response is "URLs of edits please". Particularly, my talk page edits are not subject to WP:BIO, and the only edit I made there was not "for the removal of the coverage of [my]…
If "author of first book about Perl" doesn't make your book, you're a pretty poor writer.
I've noticed that at the past few open source conferences. Most people know me from FLOSS Weekly now. Since we already went through a "FLOSS Weekly deletion" action, can't some of that apply back to my article?
If I'm just a footnote in the history of Perl, you're woefully ignorant.
As in, how would you explain the growth of the interactive web from 1994 to 1997, without including Perl, and therefore, without including my books that taught most of those guys how to code in Perl? Very good point.
Seriously? I've been very very careful to abide by WP:BIO. The only changes I've ever made are to add ISBNs or my photo. I even stay out of the talk page for the most part as well. I call "troll".
