• Commented on A bit more about Time::Moment
  Why no overloading operators other than stringification and comparison? It would be easier to just add two scalars containing a references to a Time::Moment class than use plus_hours or one of those other methods....
• Commented on Re: Need IO::Pty help with *BSD/OSX
  02-bc.t also fails if I run it individually but Expect passes tests allright upon instalation (a report has been sent to cpantesters). FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE-p10, perl 5.16.3 built from ports. No, I am running bc(1), not dc(1). On 9.2 does not...
• Commented on Time::Moment vs DateTime
  I have been watching this for a while. Amazing work, it even beats Time::Piece in terms of speed and memory used. I don't like DateTime, it has way too many dependencies and it'slow. You should have probably included Class::Date and...
• Commented on Need IO::Pty help with *BSD/OSX
  Gabor, your test fails on FreeBSD as well. The bc(1) in *BSD is different from the GNU bc in Linux and does not print anything at startup, hence no qr/warranty'\./ line. Also, I get back 23 from the test instead...

  Does anobody know what's wrong with metabase.cpantesters.org? Any attempt to submit test results ends in failure. Accessing the url returns a please come back later message.

• Commented on Which code to read?
  I like to read code by Tokuhiro Matsuno. It's very cleanly written and there are indeed things to discover inside. I started by doing some source diving on SQL::Maker in order to figure out how to compose certain queries and...
• Commented on fatal warnings are a ticking time bomb (via chromatic)
  How about not enabling fatal warnings in Moo in the first place by making strictures optional (and an optional dependency as well) and enabling strict and warnings only, just like the other members of the Moose family?...
• Commented on Acme-oop-ism Part Three: techniques
  I'm was just toying around with Perl OO builders trying to grasp some more advanced concepts and wondered if Class::Tiny supports MI. I know it can be extended to do roles and other Moose-isms via Class::Tiny::Antlers but saw nothing about...
• Commented on Acme-oop-ism Part Three: techniques
  By the way, just to clear up a bit of confusion on my part: does Class::Tiny support multiple inheritance? Because it isn't stated anywhere in the documentation. I managed to subclass two other packages, but the code also works when...

  Panda::Date is the fastest available framework. It doesn't use OS's time functions, instead it implements its own which are much faster. And with all these speeds, it is full-featured like datetime

  moreover it has C++ interface with speeds of dozens millions/s. which you can use from your xs modules diretcly without slow perl layers.

• Christian Hansen commented on Time::Moment vs DateTime

  Time::Moment only use gettimeofday(2) and localtime(3) to compute the difference.

  I did consider to add Panda::Date until I reviewed the source code. Your code isn't thread safe and you require 5.18 to compile it, and your naïve implementation of a date with a time representation due to the broken down representation is just a wasteful! An instance of Time::Moment requires 16 bytes plus the overhead of a scalar allocation and is mostly faster than your implementation that doesn't even support a fractional representation!

  Gonna migrate our PERL5 applications from DateTime => Time::Moment. Thanks for all the efforts.
