    Typical example of AI slop
      Not sure if it's Artificial or Biological Ignorance, but the linked page starts with the claim that Perl5 is soon reaching end of life, because it'll be replaced by Perl6 on all UNIX distributions. (WTF)

      If this is a working attempt of SEO of this dubious page, we should consider censoring the link the same way we censor other spam or trolling.

        The dates aren't in chronological order. I think its AI. This post and the linked page are almost incoherent. I vote to delete.

    Your link is giving me serious Time Cube vibes, you're not doing yourself any favors there.

    I am packaging a new perl distribution

    Sounds great. But why is your link pointing to an empty page? Anyway, the perl distribution is a great idea. But you forgot to mention one important detail. What platform are you targeting? I use Windows XP mostly. Is your perl distribution going to run on XP? Are you designing one for MacOS or Linux only? What sort of post is this? It's like telling people, I am planning to open a store, and I am serious about it. I need investors. But you don't reveal the nature of business; you don't even give us a hint. So, what is this perl distribution???

      The digital jesus attitude is also weird. "perl is dying, unix is dying, only I can save you all". Supposedly he has decades of experience but his communication skills sound like a teen tech-bro wannabe, and ESL doesn't explain it.
