I absolutely love Perl, and I think that the newest versions of Perl 5 have taken much of the good things that Perl 6 promised and added them. I really think that Perl 6 misses the point and removes all of the charm of Perl. Why change sigi

A good but unfortunately temporary decision for the working people of France. Good on them.

It's a real shame that Perl isn't a popular language anymore. At least there's still an active community.

Too bad people aren't going to jail for openly flouting regulations. That would probably stop a lot of it.

Is <br /> really prone to that? I've only seen that in people actually trying to do XHTML.

I hate it when web developers do things like this. The normal version of things is almost always better it seems.

Why wouldn't you want sigils?

This study is ridiculous. Dijkstra's paper was written before C was. There's no reason to believe that he was referring to the style used commonly in C code. Edit: I just mean the tone the study writer takes is ridiculous. It is g

I used CrunchBang for quite a while, and it's sad to see it go, but I completely understand why the maintainer doesn't want to do it anymore, even though I disagree with his statement that CrunchBang no longer has value.
