- vgy7ujm 8y agoNo just stupid to think that Go is so much more "modern". In fact Perl was the "post-modern" language [1], so I think you need to change your mind in this one. :) [1] http://www.wall.org/~larry/pm.html http://www.wall.org/~larry/pm.html
- codyb 8y agoPerl is notorious for being great for text parsing which seems relevant to a search engines needs. I've heard good things about the newest versions of Perl but have not played with them at all.
