  • Commented on Assert Your Environment
    Yeah, this is good stuff. Would you be ok with presenting it at the Perl conference in Helsinki in August? :-) https://PerlKohaCon.fi...
  • Commented on Proposal for Perl Foundation Memberships
    I completely agree with Dean about not having membership (including corporate partnerships) is a wasted opportunity, and I would LOVE to see YAS' bylaws be changed to open to this revenue source. And to those of you who say "But...
  • Posted A FIXIT-dive into an old CPAN module to Salve J. Nilsen

    Let’s have a thought experiment. Assume there is an Open Source-licensed Perl module published on CPAN that you care about, and that hasn’t had any updates in a very long time - what are your options?

    In this blog post, I’ll take a dive into this problem, and use the Geo:…

  • Posted A Perl Toolchain Summit 2018 organiser's report to Salve J. Nilsen

    The 2018 edition of the Perl Toolchain Summit is over! I’ve posted my report from it on my own blog.

  • Posted Perl Toolchain Summit 2018: Oslo, Norway to Salve J. Nilsen

    Every year we bring together the lead developers of the Perl and CPAN toolchain! This event was previously known as the QA Hackathon, but in 2016 it became the Perl Toolchain Summit (PTS) to more accurately reflect the scope and purpose.

    This is an event where pressing issues around Perl&#…

  • Commented on Python is The New "Write-Only, Linenoise" Language
    Now, now, let's not go about bashing the pythonistas! They have still a gem of a language, perfectly cromulent for many things and with a long future in front of them! ;)...
  • Commented on Fluent interfaces in Perl 6
    How would you write Martin Fowler's JMock example (which you linked to) in Perl 6?...
  • Commented on We are all Perl's ambassadors...
    Ooh, correction to myself; CPANRatings is on github! https://github.com/perlorg/perlweb/tree/master/lib/CPANRatings :D...
  • Commented on We are all Perl's ambassadors...
    One obvious way to improve the situation is by letting CPANratings "time out", so old (and presumably fixed) comments get a reduced visibility. I think cpanratings.perl.org can be made into a much better resource than it is today, but this...
  • Posted CPAN Day 2014 in Oslo to Salve J. Nilsen

    Oslo Perl Mongers are organizing a CPAN Day event! \o/

    Tomorrow (Saturday August 16th 2014), we’ll be hanging out at the Hackeriet (Norwegian for “The Hackery”) hackerspace, helping anyone dropping by with CPAN and Perl issues they may h…

  • Commented on The 2013 White Camels
    Well done and kudos to the deserving winners! :D...

    Whoa, that's impressive. You guys rock! :)...
  • Commented on Once More Unto The Breach
    Thanks for taking another stab at this, Stevan. :)...
  • Commented on Unicode is 20++ years old and still a problem
    Maybe the guy who wrote the software hasn't bumped into your usage pattern? If you want to make him/her aware of what you found, try filing a bug report (with a failing test, if possible :). Also, it might be...
  • Commented on When to create a branch in Git?
    Also, "git rebase -i " ftw. :) It's *very* nice to be able to reorganize and squash several related commits to one. Makes the commit history so much easier to manage....
