Today at #EmacsConf I learned that perl-mode is being deprecated in #Emacs. Only cperl-mode will be supported in the future.

I have had

;; Prefer CPerl mode
(defalias 'perl-mode 'cperl-mode)
(defalias 'perldoc 'cperl-perldoc)

in my config for ages. I guess I'd forgotten perl-mode was still around!

In all the hoopla about artificial intelligence having answers to all our questions, people forget that asking the right questions has always been the hardest part.

We are starting a GitHub org for people who are interested in creating a better IDE experience for Perl users. Ping me with your GitHub username if you're interested in being involved. Not looking for big commitments.

Mathematician, computer scientist, and WWII code breaker Alan Turing, who established the theoretical foundation for just about every modern computing device, was born #OTD in 1912. His work helped make it possible for you to read this.

The British government prosecuted him for being gay, a monstrous act that eventually led to Turing’s death by suicide. Then they waited over 60 years before issuing a pardon.
