https://www.usenix.org/system/files/1311_05-08_mickens.pdf my favorite part about this lore is that my whole inspiration to even use #linux was having some friends who were in various shapes systems hackers. Writing an e-commerce system in the early 2000s in Perl. In fucking #perl (put away your org-mode pitchforks lads)

My least favorite part about this is I no longer have any friends or colleagues to relate to about this.

But the good news is the internet exists and there’s a still a lot of us old nerds out there.

Shocking news!

“perl -c script.py” will give you tons of errors!

Apparently it's getting to be too late to get any complex programming done tonight, then.

@manwar 's post in last year’s #Perl Advent Calendar about his Map::Tube module intrigued me. I decided I wanted to build a map for the tram network where I live: Hannover. Along the way, I decided to write up how to create a Map::Tube map for one’s city of interest. Since I enjoy explaining things in detail, this got … long. So I broke it up into parts.

This is the first post in a five-part series about how to create Map::Tube maps. Enjoy!

About 25 years ago, I disliked that so many Debian tools were written in Perl because the language allowed too many ways to do the same thing. Now, I consider Perl 5 mature and predictable compared to Python 3.

A favorite hobby of mine has become collecting outdated, preferably chintzy, tech books. My most recent is the MS-DOS 6.2 guide.

Here is an upbeat tune I made:

I used the #Perl program https://metacpan.org/release/GENE/MIDI-RtController-Filter-CC-0.0603/source/eg/multi.pl to help create it. Specifically, it makes the bass sound like a farty didgeridoo and the arpeggiation more vibrant. :D

I seldom release modules to #CPAN mainly because there’s so much great stuff there already. An answer on StackOverflow about pretty printing DBIx::Class result sets got me thinking. I then climbed onto the shoulders of several giants to create a wee module which does just that. Introducing DBIx::Class::ResultSet::PrettyPrint!
