@jazz I believe I used isync years ago when I want do offline IMAP with mutt while traveling with a laptop.

<checks notes>

Nope, I used `offlineimap`, with a laptop with 8 MB of memory, a 75 Mhz processor and a 400 MB hard drive.

I set it up a CLI-only device. Mutt was pretty snappy on it. I did a little #Perl development on it too..

My #LongCovid addled brain has caused me to take two days to realise that #perl 's "read" command ( https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/read ) the "OFFSET" relates to the provided scalar and not the file being read in (which you would need seek for).

So I've discovered that voice control for computers has come a long way. I started learning perl a couple days ago, and I stumbled upon a video where somebody uses software called Talon to program in perl. So far I don't have severe RSI, but I feel like it will grow as I get older.

Here is one of the videos I saw that motivated me to try this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKuRkGkf5HU

#RSI #disability #perl #talon

First day working by myself at the new job. Troubleshot the 18 different places Windows hides startup applications, and a Facilis Terrablock RAID whose boot drive was listed in the "Safely Remove Drive" tray icon. Set up a new Ubuntu box, learned a touch of Perl from some custom scripts, and fixed a broken drive formatting script which turned out to be due to a single uncaught period in a sed command.

I'm tired.

@shawnhcorey @wh0x3r
@Perl #Perl’s roots are repeatedly acknowledged in the official documentation available via the `perldoc` command, man pages on #Unix-ish systems, and the web:

#sed #awk #sh #shell #C

I am annoyed how fashion dictates which languages are used to build tools. First, everything was in #Ruby (with its gem hell), then #JavaScript (and gems seem so cool in comparison to npm), and now everyone uses that primitive #goLang.

Although at least it comes as a single binary, so that's an improvement of sorts.

P.S. And before Ruby, it was #Perl, the write-only language.

While Fastly is blocking me, a question for the #Perl community.
How do I loop over a blessed array (got it from an API)? :)

@Codeberg A core requirement of #inxi is that it always works on everything, going back to about 2005-2008. The only hard requirement is #Perl 5.008 or newer. inxi is in #Debian sid, which can be accessed via pinning to stable and adding sid sources, or you can just replace inxi package with inxi files, there's no difference really. Each new inxi tends to have a lot of new stuff, and new hardware etc support.

Moving from a #Python -based codebase to a #Perl -based one to download Copernicus images, I found a reduction of the VIRT memory from about 7GBs to about 2GBs and from 2 threads to whatever I like. The Python code base uses sentinelsat and homura packages for REST downloads from the #copernicus service. I wonder how this difference in memory footprint could be justified. 🤔

@wh0x3r It’s not too surprising. #Perl and #Python grew up together, and #PHP’s syntax was inspired by Perl’s.

I write an awful lot of .pbm/.pgm/.ppm files when doing image extraction or creation with #Perl - it's just about the simplest possible image format (header w/ type, width, height, then just blast the pixel values), and then is easily fed to the NetPBM tools to turn it into something else like a .png.

.PAM files are "newer" (~2000) and support alpha channels and >8 bit channel depth. pamtopng does exactly what it says in the name, but I have to build it from scratch first!

Please do not use the #ASCII grave accent (0x60) as a left quotation mark together with the ASCII apostrophe (0x27) as the corresponding right quotation mark (as in `quote'). Your text will otherwise appear rather strange with most modern fonts (e.g., on #Windows and Mac systems). Only old X Window System fonts and some old video terminals show ASCII 0x60/0x27 as left and right quotation marks, while most modern systems follow the ISO and Unicode standards instead. If you can use only ASCII’s typewriter characters, then use the apostrophe character (0x27) as both the left and right quotation mark (as in 'quote'). If you can use #Unicode characters, nice directional quotation marks are available in the form of characters U+2018, U+2019, U+201C, and U+201D (as in ‘quote’ or “quote”).
If you work in an environment where the UTF-8 encoding is already used everywhere (e.g., Plan9 and most modern GNU/Linux installations), you could even decide to use proper directional quotation marks, as in ‘quote’ or “quote”.

Check your source code directories with

grep \` *
to find out, where modifications are necessary. Then use (with proper care!) something like

perl -pi.bak -e "s/\`/'/g;" file1 file2 ...
to make the necessary substitutions automatically, or make the edits manually instead.

The use of 0x60 (grave accent) as a special control character in the Unix shell (to denote command substitution as in command or better $(command)), in #Perl, in #Lisp, or in #TeX/troff (to denote a proper left single quotation mark) does not have to be changed and remains unaffected

@Perl

@nxadm @vruz Would have been a neat alternate timeline if @gruber just used #Perl #POD instead of inventing #Markdown, but the former admittedly isn’t *quite* as aesthetic when viewed as plain text.

(As evidenced by the above sentence, which would have had to say I<quite> in POD for the same effect.)

Different times, different use cases: POD was invented in a world of man pages and ugly nroff codes; Markdown in web pages in ugly #HTML.

@nxadm

It makes total sense for Perl to move on. With a pinch of salt on using an unspecified "Markdown".
(or you can end up with a mess of contributions written for various different dialects and peculiar, slightly incompatible implementations)

#markdown #perl #rakulang

@vruz

I think the feature-set is limited and I trust the knowledge of people introducing the change.

But it's a fact that most devs know some markdown nowadays (probably the GitHub dialect) and not many feel joy when they have to learn yet another documentation format limited to a single language.

#perl #rakulang #markdown

@nxadm

Markdown is a rough idea and a moving target scribbled down by a blogger for his particular needs in his limited scope.

Any long-term work should be based on a better defined derivative such as CommonMark, Pandoc Markdown, Github's GFM, or Markdig.

I assume that's what they actually mean, and not "Markdown" literally, otherwise they're stepping into trouble.

#Markdown #Perl

Hell froze over? #Perl is thinking about moving from POD to Markdown for library documentation. I wish #rakulang would pay attention as well and go for the short pain.

"POD extensions - do we keep stealing features from Markdown (like tables, images, language markers)? Do we switch to Markdown? Neither are easy."

https://blogs.perl.org/users/psc/2023/09/this-week-in-psc-117.html

@clf @mjgardner

Oop is available in #perl since the beginning of forever.

Part of the core language. No addons required. Simple, true. Hash based, true. Far from perfect, true. Yet scales well even for large systems. Decent enough and just sitting there for people to write well structured code with it.

And that's the main reason for oop in the first place.

Refusing to structure code well or not is more of a dev's personal choice ... independent of the tools at hand.

@clf @nuddlegg Disagree that #Perl #OOP is messy. v5.38 finally gives people a familiar native syntax: https://perldoc.perl.org/perlclass

If you can’t use that, #Moo is quite nice:
• https://metacpan.org/pod/Moo
And #Moose gives you a full meta-object protocol:
• https://metacpan.org/pod/Moose

@mjgardner I could easily picture some of these memes saying:

#Perl spaghetti?...naw!
#JavaScript spaghetti?...cewl!

Kinda thing.

Being faced with bad code people tend to blame more the programming language than the devs that wrote the code. #perl #programming

@alexelcu Quite similar story.

I had #Amiga 500 back in 1992 and desperately wanted to learn programming. But being in the country I was, it was impossible to get tools and books. From 1997, when on PC, things got much better. Programming languages weren’t that bad … we had #Perl but the problem was that programming books were so expensive. It was a treat to buy new book every 6 months.

@heberle Consider following https://chirp.social/@Perl, the hub of the #Perl fediverse community. Followers tag it in their Perl-related posts to boost them to everyone else.

@ChristosArgyrop @Perl Author of the article has a nice #blog with a lot of #Perl posts: https://perlingresprogramming.blogspot.com/search/label/perl

And that video course is available in bite-size pieces on a new-ish bespoke Perl #YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/@perltechstack?si=UajWQzjfJVCyi26q

@ovid Few years ago I had a potential long-term #Perl client. We made a first small contract. In their #CGI hell I found they had #UTF8 in their database and told browsers to do so but both I/O were not configured. It seemed to work but internally all their strings were garbage. Nobody understood. Some string operations were done in #SQL because there it "magically" worked.

I tried to explain but they didn't understand or even believed me there was any issue at all. I do not miss that client.

I‘m an environmental #physicist by training, but after three years of parental leave I started a new job as a consulting software #developer. I work(ed) with a lot of different technologies: #swiftlang, #java, #csharp, #cplusplus, #angular, #perl, … My preferred computing platform is the #Mac.

In my spare time I love to play #tabletopgames of all kinds: #boardgames, #cardgames, #miniature games and #rpg’s. When I‘m by myself I also enjoy #sologames or (mostly) older #videogames.

Restarted learning #CommonLisp, too.

Fan of the #GratefulDead, #Phish, and #Goose.

@dakkar @Perl Fewer parens and thus better #Perl golf score:

perl -E 'say sprintf("%b", ord "D" ^ ord "C") =~ y/1//'

@kpeace @Perl Save this as an executable #Perl script and then run it with two characters as command line arguments:

(I incorporated the `tr` counting tip from @dakkar: https://s.thenautilus.net/notes/9jx0aek4wo)

#!/usr/bin/env perl

@ordinals = map ord, @ARGV[0, 1];
$xor = $ordinals[0] ^ $ordinals[1];
$binary = sprintf '%b', $xor;
$count = $binary =~ tr/1//;
print "$count\n";

@pganssle @faassen Contrast that w/ #Lisp, #Python, #Ruby & #Perl which offer different ways of managing abstractions, namely macros & meta-programming.

They let you shrink the depth of the hierarchies by using those means.

And b/c of that the culture is generally against too granular abstractions.

Writes @jwz: “I dug up the old CVS archive, checked out those old web site source revs, and then I had to run that website-generating perl script that I wrote 25 years ago...it worked without any modifications. Self-high-five.”

So I started a project to try to bring basic type constraints to #perl. https://github.com/Perl-Apollo/oshun

I named it "Oshun" after a Nigerian Yoruba river goddess who's often depicted as protecting humans. I did that because I wanted to show a world that's more "round," if you will.

It's a given that when you try to do something big in #OpenSource, you get detractors.

Here's a comment from one of mine:

"Oshin" (sic) is named after a pagan river demon/earth mother - speaking of "bizzare".

@randomgeek @joelle @Perl I’d like that to be true for me, but I have yet to personally face one of those tasks that #RakuLang can do but #Perl can’t.
