AFAIS did the OP repost this SO blog entry to inform us. But he didn't write it! So what's the point in attacking him?

Wouldn't it be more constructive to write a better opinion piece on Perl?

You've listed valuable points, thanks for that.

So what kind of help do you need to assemble a good article about "Why Perl is still relevant in 2022" ?

PS: And yes, after looking more closely, these chained elsifs with eq make me cringe too. That's obviously better solved with an extra hash-mapping. But that's true for most languages.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
