  • Posted Be the first to author a Perl HTTP/3, QUIC, or QPACK library to Dmitri

    This is a public service announcement.

    By now, everyone has heard that HTTP/3 is coming. Based on Google's QUIC protocol that began as an experiment circa 2012, IETF QUIC and HTTP/3 are likely to become standards this year.

    My emp…

  • Posted __END__ to Dmitri

    Browsing the puny (I miss Borders!) Technology section at the local Barnes & Noble today, I did not see a single Perl book. I was hoping that they sold out, but the manager confirmed my fears: they no longer carry Perl books in that store. The reason, he said, is that no Perl book has been…

  • Posted Twelve years ago, Perl 6 to Dmitri

    In Software Exorcism (published in 2003), there is a mention of Perl 6:

      The JVM is not the only virtual machine on the market. The Parrot virtual machine, for example, executes bytecode …
  • Posted ctags now supports Perl 6 to Dmitri

    We added support for Perl 6 to ctags. Give it a shot: grab a copy from GitHub.

  • Commented on Day 2: When uniq is not unique enough (App::nauniq)
    I took this as a bit of a challenge. I think standard Linux tools do the trick just fine: perl -ne 'print qq($. $_)' < input.txt | \ sort -k2 | \ uniq -f1 | \ sort -n | \...

    Would you be interested in a bare-bones, buggy, and old vi clone from 2000? http://vip.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vip/vip/ I can't promise that I'll be willing to fix all the bugs....
  • Commented on Method Privacy in Perl
    Sure, it does not solve the non-private method classification and designation problem. It does, however, solve the private method problem. What one needs to observe is that if a method is so private that it cannot be called from any...
  • Commented on Method Privacy in Perl
    I don't think there is a problem to begin with. If this thing is so private, is it really a method? Just call it as a function and call it a day: sub _secret_sauce { my $self = shift; ...;...

    Salvador, I hear you about having no time! I am in the same boat, only recently have I found some time to clean up my RT queues a bit. (Of course, I only have 3 CPAN modules to your 100,...
  • Commented on I like you just the way you are.
    I have just re-read perl5100delta. I use // operator all the time; so I guess I was exaggerating a little. I was thinking about RT::Client::REST, which is now eight years old and should still run just fine using Perl 5.6.0....
  • Posted I like you just the way you are. to Dmitri

    Perl, I like you just the way you are. There's been some interesting features and fancy OO modules in the last ten years, but my code is still 5.6.0...

    I'd suggest releasing 1.04 to CPAN straight away. As you're not the maintainer, it won't be officially indexed, so people won't be able to install it using:

    cpan Event::Lib
    

    Instead they'll need to install it like:

    cpan CRUX/Event-Lib-1.04.tar.gz
    

    Then, if you become maintainer later you can re-release as 1.05 and it will be indexed. Or if Tassilo von Parseval re-appears, he'll be able to pick up maintenance using your fixed version as a base for his next release.

  • xiojason commented on Revitalizing the Perl Power Tools

    This is very exciting to me! Yeeears ago, I was enamored with the idea of a Unix-y OS that booted into a Perl-based shell and that, beyond the kernel, used as few non-Perl moving pieces as would be practical. I imagined PPT being the foundation to build upon, but it was already seemingly abandoned and neglected even back then. Glad to see it's being picked back up!

  • jimmy.tty commented on Day 2: When uniq is not unique enough (App::nauniq)

    I think the easiest way to keep first occurrence of each line is one of:

    $ awk '!a[$0]++' input.txt

    or

    $ perl -ne'$h{$_}++||print' input.txt

    To keep the last occurrence is enough use command tac in input.txt before awk or perl inline scripts.

  • perlancar commented on Day 2: When uniq is not unique enough (App::nauniq)
    $ perl -ne'$h{$_}++||print' input.txt

    Yup, that is what nauniq essentially does (plus some options).
