and how will any of his talks improve your crainial health?
Like a worn out rubber band, of course: they'll stretch until it breaks.
CD> * Everyday Perl CD> http://damian.conway.org/Seminars//Everyday.html
sounds intriguing.
Yes, this one looked like it might be the most pragmatic -- which isn't a quality I usually associate with the talks I've seen so far :-)
CD> * Sufficiently Advanced Technologies CD> http://damian.conway.org/Seminars//Technology.html
sounds scary.
The "no interface" remark has my interest piqued with this one. Shouldn't all good software aspire to this? You're right that it
sounds scary, but this one could also be surprisingly pragmatic.
CD> * Time::Space::Continuum CD> http://damian.conway.org/Seminars//TimeSpace.html
i think i saw this at yapc::boca.
Was it worth seeing again? Did many people from Boston.pm see it there?
CD> * Perl 6 Update CD> http://damian.conway.org/Seminars//Perl6.html
not sure how up to date (whatever that means with p6) this is.
I was hoping that of all people, Damian could give an up-to-date version of this talk. The last Perl6 talk he gave was circa late 2000, iirc, so an update would be nice.
Besides, someone has to explain why Perl hasn't evolved or had any events of note in nearly 3 years:
<http://history.perl.org/PerlTimeline.html>
Last entry, 12 Jan 2002. Francis Fukuyama was right! History is over!
Well, at least for Perl it is, but Fukuyama wasn't talking about Perl.
Oh well, so much for historians.
