Ah, so there was an ad hominem in my reply. I’m sure your parents loved you just fine. An older brother might have helped though.

Perl6 news is relevant to the site, it’s interesting to many of us and ignorable by the rest, and quitting or remaining silent just because anonymous gainsayers pile-on… would be silly. I personally don't care if perl6 is delivered/done—frankly, it intimidates me as it’s designed for hackers who have harder CS/math skills than I do—so it’s not a matter of belief but simple courtesy. The relentless and redundant attacks on the most trivial updates is just stupid and I thought I'd proactively shut one of these threads down for once. Backfire away if compelled.

I raise your Intelligent Design analogy by labeling you the hacker equivalent of a slut shamer. How many compilers one writes or how many times one starts over on a spec isn’t a good reason to judge something bad.
