Start https://perldoc.perl.org/perlre.html#Extended-Patterns . I was trying to find an article from many years ago, but either my google skills fail me, or it is dead. Perl's regular expressions haven't been reg

I think you should revisit perl. My first job writing perl was in 2005 or 2006, and it was not a good language for an eager idiot without guidance. After a couple years, I started getting it, and it became one of my favorite languages. I t

Even a subset of that would be amazing to me -- "removed all of the undefined behaviors, added 128 bit signed and unsigned integers, features for explicit cache management (!!!), and container classes as part of a standard library&quot

Right now, we have a consumer, provider model of the internet. The internet in the 90s was very different, and looked much more peer-to-peer. The higher level sharing and storage that we have now through services such as Facebook, Instagra

The advantage over C++ isn't about the language itself. If your datastores all have functioning java connections, and your data modeling is already all done in java, it can be worth the pain to do performance critical code in java. I

I was trying to get to this with good versus rewarding, but it's one of those things that is so obvious when you feel it, but hard to communicate with people who haven't. As far as drugs go though, there is a lot of personal prefe

I guess looking at movies and books, I could see where you'd get this idea, but it really isn't accurate. There are different types of feeling good, and the purely chemical good isn't particularly rewarding. There are the mo

It really depends who your clients are. If they are servers, 30s can work okay. If they are end users, caching happens all over. It's a huge PITA, especially since you'll run into podunk ISPs that have their own custom caching

Systems in general tend to have a way that they like to be used. Erlang has all of the tools to support that model, and from my limited experience with it, works great when you respect it. I wouldn't reach for it due to my inexperien

It sounds like you have a lot of operation issues due to the technologies that you used. I mean, at least you aren't doing your backend in node, but running an actor system on top of an actor system is going to be brutal to properly a

I don't have a lot of faith in BYD busses actually working correctly. Proterra seems like the most solid design around, and looking on LinkedIn, it seems like they picked up a lot of people who worked at Tesla when things were going

It's even more accurate than I thought when I saw it. I assumed the the visualization of the virus was stupid movie crap, then I worked in bioinformatics and realized it was https://pymol.org/2 . One of my friends wo
