You don't have to use either of these. Was the last time you used perl in the late 1990s?

> Not particularly since you seem very combative

Asking people to back up what they say is 'combative'? Nothing else in this post has a ring of truth either

> No, it's all about evangelizing and recruiting as many other people as possible to go down with the sinking ship you've committed yourself to.

You have no idea who I am, what I do, or what my commitments are.

> Most of the anti-Perl comments I've heard have been from people who really didn't know it very well, if at all.

Singular, in English that means there's a single reason.

> I think there are plenty of reasons, and they work to reinforce each other

Care to expand on this?

Genuinely interesting, a thread where people complain about a language and they are so careless with the language they use to try and get their point across...

Why don't you specify this single reason you allude to?

Not sure you know what the word every means.

> The language is terse

Only if you chose to write perl code in this way. The same could be said for many languages

> FWIW: I'm unclear why people continue to use Perl at all

Great language, large library on cpan, great eco system, people enjoy using it, they have a large code base that's run fine for decades. Choose 1 or more.

You're right, it's all about you and what you do...
