February advance notice - Tues, Feb 14th, 2017, 7ish Room E51-376 Ricky Morse, Digital pack-ratting for Tumblr (and XKCD): a legally hypothetical discussion of how to time-shift Tumblr data I’m a bit of a digital packrat, so I will be showing a tool that I developed to help me hoard Tumblr meme posts. As a bonus, just for this talk I wrote something in Perl 6 that does a similar task for XKCD.
Ricky Morse has been using Perl for various things since the late 90s. (Note that Feb 14th is Valentines Day ... and also the latest 2nd Tuesday falls, so both this month and next the BLU.org 3rd Wednesday Linux/Unix meeting will fall the day after Boston.PM, twice since not a leap year.) *January* follow up notes from Brian D. Foy (bdf), "6 More Things about Perl 6" 6 More Things about Perl 6 will cover a combination of features, ideas, and concepts that I find interesting about the new language. I'll also answer question about the upcoming "Learning Perl 6" book, the Kickstarter campaign for it, and other things you may want to ask.
