I talked with Dameon Conway about 8 years ago and Perl 6 was just around the corner.....one heck of a big corner. I left Perl in favor of Python to keep my sanity and the community.
@richard92m Its a better idea to dig deeper in to Perl5 that way when Perl6 inevitably falls flat on its face with its idiotic 'virtual machine' routines you will have a strong grasp of a Perl that actually works and you will be able to branch off the *good* version of Perl. Then the poor morons who invested so much time in to the crummy Perl6 will be stuck trying to figure out what to do next.
Python has some of the ugliest syntax I've ever seen. I hope the sample that Larry shows here with perl 6 is *not* indicative that P6 is going to try to emulate pythons 'minimalist' syntax.
Yet another demonstration, if it wasn't already abundantly and painfully obvious, that the trendy, youtube, teenage atheist loves to blather senselessly.
He does his presentation in Suckless Sent! I love him even more now.

Looking forward to Perl 6!
Ah, interesting! Thank you for this enlightening video about the Perl Programming language.
Still looking forward to Perl 6!
That's the same fucking shirt from the BigThink videos! Go Larry
LOL
As an atheist, I have no problem with Larry's faith. He doesn't introduce it in a context where it's irrelevant.
very interesting
When Perl 6?
Perl 6 existed from 2015 to 2019 when it got renamed to Raku. If I have the story line right.

Shouldn't the video title be more specific?
Like: "[...] about Perl 6"?
It's released.
He is using Vi Editor!

Still looking forward to Perl 6 :)
still waiting?
@@doojonio It has arrived and even got renamed to Raku by now.
did he practice this before he gave it?
Me too!
I love "cargo cult parsing"
You must be a hard core pearl lover to get through this :)

"All taking your afternoon nap huh? Caffeine works wonders"
Nope Larry, you're just boring and very strange. Caffeine doesn't cure that.
That's a little mean. I think he's interesting.
