Re^2: [OT?] Other Languages

Bah! Of course it can be used in a large industrial setting. At my prior place of employment, we were using it all over the place. Please see my write up at: How we use Perl.

Oh dear. You are taking this much too seriously! I was merely anthropormorphising a computer language.

I saw Perl sitting at a desk wearing slacks and a comfortable jumper rather than in a factory wearing overalls and welders goggles. C on the other hand is a highly trained individual who does his job really well but if you push him over the edge he will go haywire and people could get hurt.

Suggestion for a new meditation -> If X were a person, they would be like... where X is a computer language. (I guess it has been done though!)

Hmm, I would go with this description with a few additions.

The "C Guy" has a 'fisulation' on his side that allows his friends to play with his 'guts' when they need to (or just when they want to have fun with him).

The "C++ Guy" has the same type-of fistulation as his father and grand-father had.
