@pmosetc here's hoping you find a few more CPU to throw at it!

@mischapeters @canadianbryan I didn't get to it before vigdis did.

[Andrew Fresh @AFresh1]

@canadianbryan looks like it just came back up. I, unfortunately, expect continued flakiness for a while longer.

[Andrew Fresh @AFresh1]

@canadianbryan I'll check on it, could be either. Most likely my shell server has just been disconnected that long. Working on getting it moved to a more stable connection, but it has been painful.

If you wanna learn #Perl, Modern Perl (2016) is free, treats you like an adult, and is 200 pages long (always a good sign).

@brianwisti @obra my real wishlist? An Ateus with a trackpoint.

[Andrew Fresh @AFresh1]

@brianwisti @obra yup, still have that one on my desk. Had to replace all the switches, but would love a replacement that was all the things @brianwisti said in the next message.

@enobacon I keep waiting to vote for this Eric guy, but instead, Ted. 😞

@michaeldexter @BSDTV @FreeBSDHelp @freebsdjournal @skreuzer @_bapt_ AFAIK FreeBSD doesn't have system perl anymore. Did it get added back? @BSDTV @FreeBSDHelp @freebsdjournal @skreuzer @_bapt_

[STAR Voting @5starvoting]

If you are in Oregon, vote in this poll to experience the joy of scoring candidates on a scale of 0-5 and having those scores matter!

Unfortunately, in the real election Oregonians will still be using old-fashioned choose-one-only voting.

@n1vux @chromatic_x I agree with @n1vux, although I have no insight other than reading the p5p list, I think that when Corinna has the previously spelled out features non-experimental we will get a perl7 rebrand.

@michaeldexter perl -e 'print(( stat $_ )[11] . "\n") for @ARGV' /path1 /path2

[Andrew Fresh @AFresh1]

@EndlessMason @timmisiak but a _special_ empty string that doesn't warn if used in numeric context. New in perl 5.36, there is a way to check for these special values. (As well as builtin::true and builtin::false as clearer names for them)

@michaeldexter @gumnos ha! Nice. I'll hopefully have time to catch replays someday. @gumnos

Perl v5.10 introduced \K that only captures part of the matched pattern. Isn't magic? Perl Rocks !!!
