- hsmyers 14y agoThey have known and been doing things about bad Perl advice for a lot longer than a year. There have been idiots who have made reputations based on some of the worst possible code you can imagine and it has taken a lot of time to convince newcomers that they should read and ask questions else where. The good news is that the communities like PerlMonks do an excellent job of good advice (occasionally with really good flame wars :) ), the trouble being that it may take a little bit of luck for the beginner to stumble across the resource.
