This is the earliest of of sixteen perl posts, rescued from my defunct 'use.perl' blog. Comments on that blog will be pasted in as a single comment below.

I don't have a journal entry for day one because day one, I spent my time hacking on some code that I promised would be done Monday. I like this wireless network.

Tuesday-

I actually left Brown 100; I went to Dave Rolsky's "Alzabo: Less SQL, more (Data Modelling and OO)" which is a project worth investigating. Alzabo is sort of an alternative to DBIx::RecordSet; it's a RBDMS data modeller, that also creates OO methods to manipulate the database. Cool looking stuff, and at least with HIS demos, it seemed to make hard stuff easy. Sort of worried by the program docs, where he says you should wrap Alzabo calls inside an 'eval'...

MJD's Tie::File talk is good.

Update after lunch...

"Something Something, Faster"- Robert Spier did an impression of gnat, which I have an excellent picture of (which I will upload tonight).

This was an Optimization talk gnat gave at OScon earlier this year. It took three hours then. Robert did it in 40 minutes. It was excellent. (more later).
