    When you say <a href="http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=255590">IO::Select: select vs. can_read</a> you really mean [id://255590]. The former sends people to one of four hostnames through which PerlMonks is available, each with its own cookie domain. The latter will leave a monk logged in after following the link no matter which hostname they use.*
