Beautiful Southern California.... (Looking for Perl guys)
Hey guys, Valueclick has a few perl openings, and we're having trouble filling them. If you are a smart perl guy, AND would be willing to relocate ( there is a relocation package ), drop me a note. Our culture is great, with a fun and professional environment. We use SCRUM, have a testing focus, and big monitors... :) In real terms, it means a good balance in quality of life and work. You can check out the positions @ http://www.valueclick.com/careers/jobs-at-the-click. (We also have sales and business openings) -Peter /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */

(We also have sales > and business openings) Not to steel Peter's thunder, but if you're a Ruby guy, there is another company in California that is hiring. I went to Mountain West Ruby Conf last week and some TrueCar recruiter paid for everyone's lunch and said they have some high salary openings in San Francisco (and somewhere else in CA -- I forget). They'll pay to fly you out for an interview (if you pass a test first), and they'll pay for relocation if you're hired. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just passing on the news if anyone is interested. http://www.truecar.com/hiring.html -Bryan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */

Rumors of Perl's death (or imminent death) have been greatly exaggerated. The Perl community continues to produce excellent modern software. The number of modules available from CPAN has grown at a terrific pace over the last few years. Some very exciting developments (pun intended) have occured in recent years that make developing in Perl an even more enjoyable experience than it was before: - Moose is a post-modern object system that makes OO development easy and even fun. - PSGI/Plack, a new paradigm for web development based on WSGI and Rack - DBIx::Class continues to evolve as the ultimate way of working with databases - Strawberry Perl makes it a piece of cake to develop, run, and deploy Perl in a Winbloze environment - Padre is a powerful cross-platform IDE for Perl development Here are some others you may want to research yourself: - Try::Tiny - local::lib - POE (getting to be an oldie, but still a goodie) - autobox - autodie - Bread::Board - Fey - Starman -- Doran L.

According to the bottom of the first page of the manual [1], Moose is postmodern because 'we have "borrowed" features [...] and the bits we didn't like [...] we tossed aside.' Actually I think the proper pronunciation of postmodern is "postmodernsnickersnicker", because there is no other way to say such a hilariously nebulous thing.

If Moose is postmodern the same way that Perl is postmodern, then wouldn't tossing aside the OO bits you didn't like be giving OR a higher precedence than AND? Wouldn't that make Moose just modernist? http://www.perl.com/pub/1999/03/pm.html I can't believe I looked at that much Perl code tonight. The good news is that I'll be back to not understanding it in the morning... /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
