Nice! My first big Perl program was an IRC bot named GoatNuts back in '96/'97.

I learned a lot of Perl from Randall Schwarz (Programming Perl, O’Reilly) himself (who was doing community service for ‘hacking’ intel) in the #perl chanel on EfNet! Later hung out with him at a mutual friends party and he was an absolute asshat. Best lessons from Randall were to use strict; and always run with the -w flag and then heed and fix the warnings. When you can write beautiful strict perl with no warnings the code is much easier to maintain.

Met Larry Wall (author of Perl) at The Perl Conference 1.0 and he was a gem.

If you find you’re doing any web scraping look into the obscure spaceship operator. It makes parsing a small piece of larger text so much easier if you have good stop and start points.

Cheers on your journey! Not too many proud perl hackers out there but I made a good chunk of coin off that language and it was my first ‘real’ language so it has a dear place in my heart!

no U!

you can make tea by just putting a tea bag in cold water and letting it sit for a few hours.

We make iced tea all the time without any hot water it tastes the same as if you boil the water. Just takes longer and of course isn’t warm.

I don’t doubt what you are saying, McCarran isn’t in downtown though. The record setting measurement was made at McCarren so the actual records for that year from the airport are a closer comparison than whatever was happening downtown.

the airport maxed out at 110° in july 1981 so a good 9% hotter measured at the same spot.

i dunno when i am portioning i like knowing the exact weight you get really good at pulling X ounces especially after the first dozen you barely have to make any corrections in my experience

no no no don’t divide the meat into 83 gram portions. Divide each 500g portion into 6, why is this confusing

there will be a livestream, with the masticating set to start at 5 p.m. ET.

Four Roses or Maker’s Mark old fashioned. Basil Hayden or Old Overholt Rye if they don’t do cocktails.

here and now it’s the hottest summer of my life and they say it’s only going to get hotter, but nobody talks about the causes or solutions they just are happy they get a few extra days of sunshine, or complain about the damn power companies outages without talking about the ever increasing power demands caused by the same issue.

I don’t want to be ‘that girl’ bringing everyone down so I keep the discussions online where others seem interested in discussing the issue

yo the Shenandoah Valley is absolutely beautiful. A pleasure to drive through. The caverns you can go into are absolutely worth a visit!

Luray Caverns is so worth the price the formations inside are just amazing

Skyline Caverns is just as good. My favorite thing about the caverns is the cool stillness of the air underground.
