    Now I wonder if Raku developers chose the mascot thanks to this particular XKCD: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Camelia.svg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Camelia.svg

      Timing wise, it could very well have influenced Larry Wall at the time!

  I wish they did though. 80% of my day job is (admittedly non-traditional) ETL. It's done in 100% PySpark. More composable than SQL. Have plenty of utility functions wrapped up (which are far easier than stored procedures) in libraries. The code is far easier to step through with a debugger (due to the composability).
