that’s awesome, very cool!

Nice! My first big Perl program was an IRC bot named GoatNuts back in '96/'97.

I learned a lot of Perl from Randall Schwarz (Programming Perl, O’Reilly) himself (who was doing community service for ‘hacking’ intel) in the #perl chanel on EfNet! Later hung out with him at a mutual friends party and he was an absolute asshat. Best lessons from Randall were to use strict; and always run with the -w flag and then heed and fix the warnings. When you can write beautiful strict perl with no warnings the code is much easier to maintain.

Met Larry Wall (author of Perl) at The Perl Conference 1.0 and he was a gem.

If you find you’re doing any web scraping look into the obscure spaceship operator. It makes parsing a small piece of larger text so much easier if you have good stop and start points.

Cheers on your journey! Not too many proud perl hackers out there but I made a good chunk of coin off that language and it was my first ‘real’ language so it has a dear place in my heart!

here and now it’s the hottest summer of my life and they say it’s only going to get hotter, but nobody talks about the causes or solutions they just are happy they get a few extra days of sunshine, or complain about the damn power companies outages without talking about the ever increasing power demands caused by the same issue.

I don’t want to be ‘that girl’ bringing everyone down so I keep the discussions online where others seem interested in discussing the issue

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

well there was that incident in '86 when the shuttle Atlantis was ‘accidentally’ launched with 4 kids aboard during an engine test. The documentary about it called Space Camp is riveting.

i dunno how to make it any clearer sorry

not true (in the us i dunno how other countries go), the license is printed for you after you are granted the privilege so you can show it has been granted. The license itself possesses no power it’s what the DMV database says that’s important.

That’s why cops take your license back to their car to ‘run your license’ that means look up your status in the database to see if you’re actually licensed currently and if there are any warrants out for you!

You are conflating the license itself with the privilege to drive. The answer is you can suspend the driving privilege regardless of the current or past drivers license issuance. This would prevent any new license from being issued even if they were otherwise eligible. Happens if you get caught driving before you pass your driving test all the time.

that is freaking awesome

this article about modern fishing blew my mind. There are ships that stay out there for YEARS fishing around the clock and then they send out other boats to unload and ferry the catch to shore. People end up in slavery on these ships with no way to escape, it’s wild.

my first thought was ‘that damage doesn’t seem like enough if these fellas are supposed to be deaths backup squad’ then i got to
