Hey thanks for correcting me. I was unaware of a lot of what's going on behind the scenes. As mentioned I was a heavy user of Perl 5 for a long time and I'll still find any excuse to use it given a problem I think it will be good at solving.
I'll have to read up on all of this before I say more but I do appreciate you giving me something to follow up on and learn about before I open my big mouth again!
- mst 7y ago's all cool, dude, countering their spin while minimally signal boosting it is why I'm commenting in this thread. Have a skim through chromatic's Modern Perl when you're bored and see if it gives you ideas :)
- smhenderson 7y agoI actually have read parts of it. My work stopped subscribing to O'Reilly's Safari Online Library so I lost access to it, kind of forgot about it but thanks for the reminder, I might just grab a copy today. And thanks for the kind reply, there's nothing I hate more than speaking incorrectly or out of turn on HN!
