Re: [Omaha.pm] [OMG!Code] Tue Oct 8 meeting



Hey Jay,

Actually my wife and i relocated to seattle washington for the position with amazon!

I don't know a whole lot about perl outside of small scripts but it all just feels much more complicated to write compared to python for similar web apps so hopefully i can alleviate some of my pain (or just convince everybody to use python...)

Hi Jay,

I'm bummed that you couldn't make it out to the meeting last night. I'm really interested in the Python vs. Perl phenomenon as you experience it at Amazon. I didn't know Amazon was in Omaha, using Perl. I'd love to hear a lot more about that.  :)

Last night a big chunk of my presentation was about how awful Perl can be. And how great Perl can be. I'm sure there's great and awful Python code out there too. Seems to me great and awful is possible in every language.

Anyway, I'd love to hear anything you could share. I'd love to help fix your Perl stuff.  :)

Thanks,
