Perl Weekly=20

https://perlweekly.com/

You can read the newsletter on the web, if you prefer.
https://perlweekly.com/archive/629.html



Hi there,

Once in a while when I share something that is not Perl related I get some
negative comments. Occasionally even some hate-speech or abusive messages.
It's not pleasant, but I hear from others who publish stuff, that they get
such messages too. In some cases a lot more than I do. So I guess it is
part of the deal. I might have some more impact on the life of people by
having this platform and some people hate me for that. The question, what
shall I do with my 'platform'?

Some people think the Perl Weekly and even me as an individual should only
care about Perl. They say: If people see that the chief editor of the Perl
Weekly talks about other programming languages then that's going to ruin
Perl. It's pretty laughable as most of the other weekly newsletters are
owned by a single person who runs them as a business.

Anyway, I recall in the early 2000s we had a very active Perl Mongers group
in Israel called Israel.pm ( https://perl.org.il/ ) that I lead. At one
point we started to have a 'foreign languages' track in which we showed
each other various other programming languages. I recall once I gave a
presentation about Dart. We also had presentations about Tcl, Ruby, and
Python. We were not bothered by that. At one point I even started to joke
that in Perl There's More Than One Way To Do It, one of them is Python.

Unfortunately I did not pick up Python early enough and did not start to
offer Python training early enough. As most of my clients started to switch
to Python they found other trainers who offered Python courses. By the time
I realized I need to diversify it was too late. Most of my clients were
gone and getting back them is rather difficult as they already have a
trainer they are satisfied with.

Which brings me to a question I ask myself: Should the Perl Weekly be
exclusively about Perl serving the interest of the language, or should it
serve the interest of the people on the newsletter? I think we need to
strike a balance. Mostly providing Perl-related content, but also provide
some pointers for people who understand that they too might need to look
elsewhere in order to find a source of income. I don't want to give the
message that is an either-or. IMHO for everyone it is totally fine to work
in other programming languages and keep Perl as a hobby if that's what life
brings.

To me it seem that the use of Rust will grow and thus it is a good time to
learn about it and to start to offer training courses in it. So let me
remind you that starting in September I am going to run a Zoom-based Rust
course. If you are interested, let me know in an email!

Enjoy your week!

Hi there,


=20


Once in a while when I share something that is not Perl related I g=
et some negative comments. Occasionally even some hate-speech or abusive me=
ssages. It's not pleasant, but I hear from others who publish stuff, that t=
hey get such messages too. In some cases a lot more than I do. So I guess i=
t is part of the deal. I might have some more impact on the life of people =
by having this platform and some people hate me for that. The question, wha=
t shall I do with my 'platform'?


=20


Some people think the Perl Weekly and even me as an individual shou=
ld only care about Perl. They say: If people see that the chief editor of t=
he Perl Weekly talks about other programming languages then that's going to=
ruin Perl. It's pretty laughable as most of the other weekly newsletters a=
re owned by a single person who runs them as a business.


=20


Anyway, I recall in the early 2000s we had a very active Perl Monge=
rs group in Israel called Israel.pm th=
at I lead. At one point we started to have a 'foreign languages' track in w=
hich we showed each other various other programming languages. I recall onc=
e I gave a presentation about Dart. We also had presentations about Tcl, Ru=
by, and Python. We were not bothered by that. At one point I even started t=
o joke that in Perl There's More Than One Way To Do It, one of them is Pyth=
on.


=20


Unfortunately I did not pick up Python early enough and did not sta=
rt to offer Python training early enough. As most of my clients started to =
switch to Python they found other trainers who offered Python courses. By t=
he time I realized I need to diversify it was too late. Most of my clients =
were gone and getting back them is rather difficult as they already have a =
trainer they are satisfied with.


=20


Which brings me to a question I ask myself: Should the Perl Weekly =
be exclusively about Perl serving the interest of the language, or should i=
t serve the interest of the people on the newsletter? I think we need to st=
rike a balance. Mostly providing Perl-related content, but also provide som=
e pointers for people who understand that they too might need to look elsew=
here in order to find a source of income. I don't want to give the message =
that is an either-or. IMHO for everyone it is totally fine to work in other=
programming languages and keep Perl as a hobby if that's what life brings.


=20


To me it seem that the use of Rust will grow and thus it is a good =
time to learn about it and to start to offer training courses in it. So let=
me remind you that starting in September I am going to run a Zoom-based Ru=
st course. If you are interested, let me know in an email!


=20


Enjoy your week!

Perl Weekly=20

https://perlweekly.com/

You can read the newsletter on the web, if you prefer.
https://perlweekly.com/archive/629.html



Hi there,

Once in a while when I share something that is not Perl related I get some
negative comments. Occasionally even some hate-speech or abusive messages.
It's not pleasant, but I hear from others who publish stuff, that they get
such messages too. In some cases a lot more than I do. So I guess it is
part of the deal. I might have some more impact on the life of people by
having this platform and some people hate me for that. The question, what
shall I do with my 'platform'?

Some people think the Perl Weekly and even me as an individual should only
care about Perl. They say: If people see that the chief editor of the Perl
Weekly talks about other programming languages then that's going to ruin
Perl. It's pretty laughable as most of the other weekly newsletters are
owned by a single person who runs them as a business.

Anyway, I recall in the early 2000s we had a very active Perl Mongers group
in Israel called Israel.pm ( https://perl.org.il/ ) that I lead. At one
point we started to have a 'foreign languages' track in which we showed
each other various other programming languages. I recall once I gave a
presentation about Dart. We also had presentations about Tcl, Ruby, and
Python. We were not bothered by that. At one point I even started to joke
that in Perl There's More Than One Way To Do It, one of them is Python.

Unfortunately I did not pick up Python early enough and did not start to
offer Python training early enough. As most of my clients started to switch
to Python they found other trainers who offered Python courses. By the time
I realized I need to diversify it was too late. Most of my clients were
gone and getting back them is rather difficult as they already have a
trainer they are satisfied with.

Which brings me to a question I ask myself: Should the Perl Weekly be
exclusively about Perl serving the interest of the language, or should it
serve the interest of the people on the newsletter? I think we need to
strike a balance. Mostly providing Perl-related content, but also provide
some pointers for people who understand that they too might need to look
elsewhere in order to find a source of income. I don't want to give the
message that is an either-or. IMHO for everyone it is totally fine to work
in other programming languages and keep Perl as a hobby if that's what life
brings.

To me it seem that the use of Rust will grow and thus it is a good time to
learn about it and to start to offer training courses in it. So let me
remind you that starting in September I am going to run a Zoom-based Rust
course. If you are interested, let me know in an email!

Enjoy your week!
