Howdy all,
Just a reminder that I'm organizing the Perl and Raku Conference that's
happening here in Toronto, July 11-13. We have a full three day schedule of
talks lined up, and I've just added a one day Go course on Friday, July 14
that's separate from the conference, but at the same venue, the

Hi All,
This is probably a blindingly obvious question, but I'm a little stumped.
I've done a little work for local business, setting up a Linux server
(Ubuntu), developing some code and pushing it to github. It's all worked
wonderfully until a few weeks ago, when he had someone in to do something

Greetings,
My Windows 10 laptop died pretty close to its fifth birthday, so I'm
planning on replacing it with a Linux laptop. I've used it for conference
calls (hosting the Toronto Perlmongers meeings), and some light Libre
Office work, so I need something better than a Bare Bones laptop, but not

I attended The Perl Conference (formerly YAPC) in Pittsburgh two weeks ago

ended up with 170 folks, and four streams of talks. There were presenters

I'm just back from The Perl Conference in Pittsburgh where I saw a great
talk on tmux. As a long-time (20 years) user of screen, I was mighty
impressed. Being able to have an edit window in one pane and a bash window
in the other pane is fantastic (and what Emacs users have had forever).

I know that crontab -r removes the user's crontab, but what's more likely
(based on your content) is that a new version of cron was installed -- and
that process somehow overwrote the existing crontab with what looks like a
default version.
I have a line in my crontab that does a periodic save:

My main system stopped booting two weeks ago, so had to move back to my
previous system. Fortunately, a lot of my stuff was in Dropbox, so after a
decent interval, many of my files were available on the previous machine.
Yay Dropbox.
There are, however, still a few files on the dead system I'd lik
Sure, the second way you listed is correct, and the CGI would store each
value for that key into an array.
In that example, you would end up with a Hash of Arrays. In Perl, that
would look like this:
%params = ( 'A' => [ 111, 222, 333 ] );
Reference material about CGIs is here:

I'm developing scripts that get run by crontab, so I'm in there making
updates fairly regularly. I would love to be able to document the changes,
so I'm wondering if there a usual and customary technique to version
crontabs?
Ideally there would be some sort of hook around 'crontab -e', but failing
Hi All,
The technical challenge I'm trying to solve is to provide an off-line
version of an API that runs on a laptop. This API would be primed with the
appropriate data set from the cloud, then would be used off-line during
data entry. Data would only be added, not modified or deleted during that

Hi All,
Two things: 1. the URL at the top of the message produces a 404 page; and
2. Although I recognize these meetings are usually the second Tuesday of
the month, I don't see "January 9th" anywhere in this message. Will the
meeting be January 9th?

Hi All,
A friend is having issues changing his contact info on a domain. The Admin
contact E-Mail address points to a Cogeco mailbox that was attached to an
account that was closed years ago.
However, it seems Cogeco doesn't bounce messages to non-existent mailboxes.
So he's stuck. And his domain

Hi all,
My chorus is thinking about having a coach work with us over a Skype
connection, with the catch that we rehearse at a church whose WiFi we're
not allowed to use. (It's complicated.)
It would be possible to use a cell phone as a hotspot, but I'm not sure if
it would provide enough bandwidt
I enjoyed using git-bash (https://git-for-windows.github.io/) -- it allowed
me to use bash, Perl and git on a Windows 7 laptop at my last contract. Far
better than the provided configuration of Windows Power (sic) Shell and the
mammoth IDE Eclipse.
