Re: Migrating from Perl to other language? Why would someone do that?

It's about propaganda and the Perl community is too tolerantly educated to fight a dirty war.*

See my response here about my experience with the Python community.

People talking about "concentration camps for Perl programmers" are symptomatic for a mobbing culture which propagates that "there is only one way to do it".

Fundamentalism is attractive, even the biggest idiot can feel like a "über hacker" after embracing this simplistic attitude.
