After 15 years of development, perl 6 will be officially launched as production ready software in 2015.

Who knows, 2015 may also be the year of the linux desktop, unless HURD is also ready for prime time.

    Then enter the Slack and Perl communities. It was a 90/10 rule. 90% were decent and a pleasure to interact with online, and 10% were passive-agressive sociopaths.

    If there were sociopaths among the developers, they were most likely among the 90%. That's exactly why sociopaths are so dangerous: They are not easily recognized as such. They appear to be very friendly and helpful people (and actively maintain that impression), while harming you behind your back. When you find out they work against you, you can bet it's already too late: The damage is already done.
