#Perl: older than some #programming careers, younger at heart than you think.

It’s evolved a lot since 1999 — modern features, cleaner syntax — yet it still runs code you wrote decades ago.

(And if you’re wondering: #Perl6 was renamed Raku in 2019 — it’s a sister language, not a successor.)

Curious? Returning after a long break? @shiar’s cheat sheet is a perfect quick‑scan: https://sheet.shiar.nl/perl

perl version cheat sheet

History of Perl releases since version 5.6, each with a summary of added or changed features.

The #endof10 is nigh, only a month away. How I spent the day?
Trying to install secushare.org PSYC module for #Perl5 on #msys2 with... less than stellar results.
Why CPAN Testers aren't reporting this? Because first you need to install their testing tools. And how did it went? I thought so.
For volunteers of such critical value they barely even have a working website.
I may end up reinstalling Perl, just to be sure.

Peeeeeeeeeerl~
