Re: Re: Pure Perl developer

I find that it is hard (and inneffective) to be a pure-anything developer these days.

I'm agree with you, but I mean another thing. Now, I develop a billing system on Perl (I use Perl, Embperl, mod_perl, SQL, HTML, JavaScript) but I'm not sure that when this project will be finished I will develop next project on Perl. I'm affraid that I should be develop on Java or something.

It's good to know many programming languages and technologies but is it possible to be a professional in all of them?

Piccasso was once asked what was the reason that he used to change so much his style of painting. And he said that the only reason was addapting to the special object of every painting... I believe that a real artist of programming should think the same way. One cannot be impossing a language just because it is the one in fashion, or because it is the one that we feel more comfortable with. When I saw what LINUX was made of, I returned to my previous concept of programming. Not the crap that is said of programming nowadays. Perl is also a fountain of ideas and resources! Much like the LINUX spirit. We have to be lucky to know one real programmer and get the real idea of what is living as such. There is nothing of the commercial propaganda in it! I swear.	[reply]
