What is the point of your post? So there are stupid people. There have always been stupid people. There have always been stupid people place above you. The only slightly interesting aspect in this is, what are you going to do about it?

How about the editors coming up with a single, recommended style for all posted code.

Well, I haven't voted yet, but had I voted, it'd have to be >15 years, because it wasn't "sort of" my idea. :-)

It contributes to my unease about perl6 that the model there appears to be a formal language with an unambiguous grammar, rather than a natural language.

DEAR GODS! I'M DEBUGGING TATTOOS NOW! AT THIS RATE I'LL NEVER GET A DATE!

Speaking of BSD's Ports and the CPAN:

One great automated package management system plus another great automated package management system equals almost the same work as no automated package management system.

When you get a chance to get paid to learn something new, you should never refuse (unless it's torture or chemical weapons manufacture or something).
