Yes, so you can use Moose if you feel that it is necessary, Moo if you want something more lightweight, or nothing if you want speed. Just like there are modules for parameter type checking and all sorts of other nice features. My point is

If you haven't played with Perl lately, it's worth looking into Moose, an object system for Perl. It not only offers a much nicer syntax for making objects, but provides features like read-only accessors, roles, introspection, and

After I had a bad concussion, one of the biggest things that helped -- with a multitude of post concussion syndrome symptoms, not just vision/movement -- was vestibular therapy. It consisted of things like having the word "dog&quo

Yes, there's definitely room for dialogue between Orthodoxy and Zen (and many other eastern religions). In fact, I came to Orthodoxy from Buddhism in college via an excellent class that compared hesychast prayer to yoga. While I haven&

Yes, I'm sorry for being unclear; the three main groups of Christianity would be Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant. But my point isn't to make some kind of numbers claim (it wouldn't matter if Orthodox actually fall in 3rd p

If you like jazz, check out "Brink of Time." It's a CD of jazz (well, more like acid jazz) remixes of Chrono Trigger's music. It was composed by the original composer, Yasunori Mitsuda. There are some tracks I'm not
