No, I hate the office. Distracting open floor plans, no access to healthy foods, not being able to see my children throughout the day. I live less than a mile from my office - and I still WFH full time.

I really need to take the time and do a deep dive on this language, it has such an interesting feature set.

The good news is most business problems are not that hard. There are domains where you really have to be a crackerjack engineer, but most jobs just need you to know how to push and pull things out of datastores, make network requests, map d

Perl. CLI one-liners or small one-off scripts. You can do so much automation and data munging so quickly with it that it really makes you feel like you have superpowers.

History. Of the world, of your country, of your profession and other industries. Things are the way they are because of how they used to be. That context paints everything. The more you understand it, the better you will be able to work wit

Because negative news articles about cannabis are almost always flimsy studies trying to spread fear and push an agenda. If cannabis was legal everywhere almost no one would care about these studies. However, cannabis is illegal in most pla

You add 'hello' in the linter's config as a pre-defined global, until you get around to fixing that. I would not want my linter to load multiple files, since that pattern of polluting the global namespace is really not mainta

I have taken a similar approach where I start with having 0 lint issues, and add a git hook or CI step to only allow merges with 0 lint issues. Except instead of modifying my config over time, I add a /* eslint ignore */ to the to

I'd be surprised if he didn't. Marketing folks always guarantee things when they don't actually know if they can deliver.

Knowledge and learning can be it's own reward. But if you need the motivation to build something you know has already been done, and probably done better, think about it as building the skills necessary to create something of value lat

Based on how low it is on the rankings compared to other languages I'd say not many. I have no data to back this up other than my anecdotal personal experience but I'd wager Perl hackers who use Homebrew never use it to install Pe

Just to be pedantic ;) var creates variables that are function scoped. my creates variables that are block scoped. let in JavaScript would be pretty much the same as my. Both are good things as they prevent typos from being new variables.

I'm a huge fan of Perl, and I've been playing around with Perl 6. The transition had been pretty smooth, and other than a few minor syntax changes (e.g. "." for method calls instead of "->") it feels the sam

Perl 6 has been an absolute joy to program in. The built-in command line parsing makes whipping up little CLI tools a breeze: http://perl6maven.com/parsing-command-line-arguments-perl6

No sugar, No grains. Cutting back on mindless between meal snacking and also quit drinking beer/wine every night. Basically just that. I'm down 20 lbs and still losing weight and it's been a breeze. No additional exercise or

It's fashionable to declare Perl dead, but the truth of the matter is Perl is still everywhere. Often in places like automation, or gluing disparate systems together. While I know the TIOBE index has its flaws, Perl is consistently in

Node.js would not replace Apache in that stack, it would replace Python (flask). Apache is for static content and to act as an HTTP proxy for managing connections. You can, and should, put Apache (or Nginx) in front of a Node.js web service
