• Commented on Identifying CPAN distributions you could help out with
  With regards to CGI, the latest release isn't from 2001, but from a month ago. MetaCPAN shows the github repo for it, so contributing to CGI is easy....
• Commented on Thread pool for a boss/worker model
  Another suggestion: beanstalkd and the Perl module Beanstalk::Client. I use this by forking off a number of workers per machine. Then I add more machines as load increases. Having isolated processes that only talk to the beanstalkd server means I...
• Posted Method::Signatures::Simple 1.01 released to CPAN to rhesa

  I’m pleased to announce version 1.01 of Method::Signatures::Simple. It provides a little sugar for writing methods and functions. Chip Salzenberg requested the addition of a function keyword with the same signature…

• Commented on SSH Can Do That? Productivity Tips for Working with Remote Servers
  I like using autossh to persist and share ssh connections. see http://aaroncrane.co.uk/2008/04/ssh_faster/ for a good writeup....
• Commented on Hash::ConstantHash
  I think the reason you didn't find anything on CPAN is that this is usually called "consistent hashing". There are at least two on CPAN that I know of: Set::ConsistentHash, Algorithm::ConsistentHash::Ketama. Furthermore, libmemcached has a couple of consistent hashing algorithms...
• Commented on Method Extraction in Vim
  I've been using a script by Jesse Vincent, ever since Piers Cawley mentioned it. @Aristotle, I see you commented on that post. Is this the script you mean?...
• Commented on Perl101: Encapsulation via Protected Abstract Methods
  Thought I'd whip up an example using MooseX::Declare: https://github.com/rhesa/example-encapsulation It doesn't actually use subclassing. I've chosen to make the abstract Employee a role. The input and output validation is done using types. I'd like to know if my approach makes...
• Commented on Google Talk with Perl
  I have no idea where I found this solution, but it works fine: $conn->Connect( ... ); # as above # change hostname on session my $sid = $conn->{SESSION}{id}; $conn->{STREAM}{SIDS}{$sid}{hostname} = 'gmail.com'; $conn->AuthSend( ... ); # as above It doesn't read...
• Commented on Beauty
  You don't really need the arrow: $actions{$chosen}(@inputs); works just like $AoH[1]{foo} vs. $AoH[1]->{foo}. The arrow does provide a clue that you're calling a subroutine, so I leave the arrow in, while omitting it with nested data structures....

• Commented on Migration Issues
  I signed up on the 9th (with username "rhesa"), and wanted to see if I could post something today. I got a "user not found" error, so I signed up again with the same username, but it turns out I'm...

  This is my pragmatic process based on the official process, which I've fixed on while working on reviews.

• ruslan-zakirov.myopenid.com commented on Identifying CPAN distributions you could help out with

  Second request for a list based on impact, e.g. reverse deps.

• Neil Bowers commented on Identifying CPAN distributions you could help out with

  Yeah, I think that'll probably be the next thing I hack in.

• Ether commented on Identifying CPAN distributions you could help out with

  What code did you use to determine the number and age of outstanding bugs? I was thinking of creating a Kwalitee data point on these stats.

• Neil Bowers commented on Identifying CPAN distributions you could help out with

  You can get the RT bug data as an SQLite database from https://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/cpan/rtcpan.sqlite.gz

  My query for getting the oldest and newest unresolved bug per dist is

      select
          distribution,
          substr(min(created),1,10) as oldest_bug,
          substr(max(created),1,10) as newest_bug
      from ticket
      where status in ('new', 'open', 'stalled', 'patched')
      group by distribution;
