Well the page is almost empty now, so maybe this was written by a real person afterall. I got suspicious and didn't look at the page in a browser, but using 'less' I saw post timestamps that alternated between various times in 2022, 2023, and 2024 in no particular order, so I assumed it had to be AI attempting to generate a blog and having the usual failing at math. I also saw lots of references to "new distribution of perl 5 perl 4" (marked up like that) and I can't see why any sane person would care about perl 4 when 5 was better in every way and backward compatible enough to make perl4 scripts an easy upgrade. On the assumption that it was some sort of spam, I was suggesting deleting the post.

If this was an honest attempt to connect with the perl community, then I guess I owe paulT an apology.
