Re: Is Perl undervalued (by some people) for similar reason(s) like GNU/Linux?

not the GNU/Linux of today.

The problem is which GNU/linux -- yesterday or today. And tomorrow they'll be another one vying for attention.

Ditto: command shell; window manager; app manager; ...

The real problem is the fragmentation.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The problem is which marmalade! Linux is like marmalade; just pick one and try it. If you don't like the taste, then you can buy a different brand for a couple of quid. `perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'`	[reply]

I bet you can't find this many types of marmalade. (Which as it happens I dislike also.)
