2023 has been a very Perl-centric year for me so far! | blogs.perl.org
I've just returned from a 2 week (and 2 Summit!) trip to Europe, specifically| blogs.perl.org
This week at work I overheard some coworkers talking about a programming| blogs.perl.org
I just finished up a fun and successful Perl QA Hackathon in Berlin. This was my first such event and I'd really like to thank my new employer Liquid Web (more at the bottom) for sponsoring the event and my attendance of it!| blogs.perl.org
