All- Welcome to another Monday summary, which hopefully provides some evidence that Mondays can get better. It always feels like writing summaries is an uphill battle, so perhaps I should switch to writing about Perl 6 Language first and…
All- Welcome to another summary, brought to you by Chinese food. The attentive among you will notice that this summary is a day late, because I did not feel like doing it yesterday. If only I could do that…
All- Welcome to another Perl 6 summary, brought to you by microwaved Chinese food and air conditioning. I love the modern era. Without further ado, I bring you: Perl 6 Compilers PxPerl Grégoire Péan announced the release of PxPerl…
All- Welcome to another summary from the frog house, a house so green you can see it from outer space (according to Google Earth). Perl 6 Compiler Building Pugs Workaround Sam Vilain posted a useful workaround to the error…
All- Long time no see … err, write … uh, read … um … this. Yeah, long time no this. As Piers hinted, two weeks ago I moved. Moving sucks. For those of you who care, I am still…
All~ Welcome to another Perl 6 summary, brought to you by Aliya’s new friends, Masha Nannifer and Philippe, and my own secret running joke. Without further ado, I bring you Perl 6 Compiler. Perl 6 Compiler Method Chaining Alex…
All~ Welcome ot another fortnight’s summary. Wouldn’t it just figure that I can’t think of anything sufficiently non-sequiterish to amuse myself. Perhaps I need a running gag like Leon Brocard or chromatic’s cummingesque capitalization. Maybe I should start one…
All, Welcome to another week’s summary. This week I shall endeavor not to delete my summary accidentally or destroy the world. Here we go with p6c. Perl 6 Compilers Implicit $_ on for Loops Kiran Kumar found a bug…
All~ Sadly, a slip of the mouse caused me to delete a partially completed summary, so I am going to push ahead on the rewrite without a witty intro. Feel free to make one up for yourself involving stuffed…
Perl 6 Language ceil and floor Ingo Blechschmidt wondered if ceil and floor would be in the core. Warnock applies, although Unicode operators would let me define circumfix \lfloor \rfloor (although I only know how to make those symbols…
All~ Welcome to yet another fortnight’s summary. I believe this is the highest volume I have ever seen the three lists at simultaneously. Hopefully they will keep it up, because they’re doing good work. To aid the epic endeavor…
All~ Welcome to yet another fortnight summary, once again brought to you by chocolate chips. This does have the distinction of being the first summary written on a Mac, so if I break into random swear words, just bear…
Welcome to yet another fortnight summary. Lately, p6l has outstripped p6i in volume. While this used to be the norm, it has become a rare occurrence. Strange. Anyway, this summary would be brought to you by cookies, but I…
All~ Welcome to yet another summary in which I will undoubtedly confuse two homophones - probably more than a few this week as I am a little tired. But perhaps the alien on my window or the vampire on…
All~ Welcome to another double feature summary. Sadly, this one was delayed because of an argument that I was/am having with my connection. Fortunately, a generous neighbor has allowed me to use his connection for the time being. So,…
Welcome to yet another Perl Summary brought to you by music and pizza (although the pizza is late in arriving). Like many summaries before it, we start with an attempt at non sequitur and Perl 6 Language. Perl 6 Language…
Welcome to another Perl 6 summary. This summary explores such thrilling issues as multi-dimensional slices of Chinese food. After all, the amount of sauce any piece of Chinese food can absorb is proportional to its surface area, which is a…
All~ Welcome to a New Year of Perl 6 Summaries. I have been doing biweekly summaries over the holiday season, but I plan on returning to weekly ones now. Hopefully “World of Warcraft” won’t prevent me, we shall see. But…
All~ The observant among you might notice that I missed last week’s summary. With the hubbub and confusion of the holidays, I blame ninjas, in particular Ryu Hyabusa. Given that Christmas is next weekend and New Years is the…
All~ Last week I asked for help identifying the source of a quotation. One friendly soul suggested Alan J. Perlis, but could not find an actual attribution. It did lead me to find a very applicable (and in my…
