Well now look what you’ve gone and done! You’ve spilt JavaScript all over my lovely semantic HTML. Dammit! It leaked onto my CSS as well.

Go grab a cloth and clean up this mess.

A story that’s a parable for…something:

For months, I’d had trouble typing my laptop password. I’d have to retry 1 or 2 times, then 2 or 3. I wondering if my fingers or my brain were degrading with age or overwork or something. Then I realized that one of the keys on the keyboard — one in the password! — had started not registering unless it was pushed firmly, and was getting progressively worse. That whole time, the password entry had only worked when I got annoyed enough to hit the ailing key a little harder. Fixed the key, and suddenly I was typing my password on the first try again.

What’s the moral of this story? I don’t know. Choose your own.

Just as "web log" became the even more awkward "blog", I suggest we change "newsletter" into "slet"

Then we can talk about the sletosphere, have startups like sletspot and sletlines, etc. It'll be terrible, as nature intended

"Your call is so important to us, we have fired all the humans and replaced them with a terrible automated system that cannot understand you.

Please hold while we pay our executives another bonus for some reason.

Did you know you can use the Internet to discover our website can't answer your question?"

A colleague is looking for a developer for contract work: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS server, with Perl 5.38.

It's CGI PERL /w Apache on the front end, MySQL 8.0 on the database.

DM for more.

Thanks!

I am informally researching open source projects that are explicitly banning #AI generated contributions, e.g. Servo https://book.servo.org/contributing.html#ai-contributions

If anyone can point out other projects with policies that restrict AI contributions, please reply with a link.

Thanks.

I am trying to fix a several-years-old issue with Pod::Weaver and Pod::Readme.

Pod::Weaver seems to strip out directives like =for and =begin that are intended for Pod::Readme, meaning that the two cannot be used together.

Is there any way to get Pod:: Weaver working with Pod::Readme?
