       @emilygorcenski @GossiTheDog Technically true in that it's no longer a "0-day exploit" after a patch is released ... I guess?

       @bortzmeyer @Troll Yeah, Audrey Tang is the reason I started learning Haskell. Didn't know she's become a minister.

       @stanford Sounds like somehow the first 50% of the Dumper.pm module contents got deleted and now perl is trying to execute parts of the module documentation as code. The part it is complaining about (like the "seen" list) is normally in line 987, not line 5.If only that one file is broken, you might be able to get things running again by overwriting it with a pristine copy of Dumper.pm.If you don't have a pristine copy: https://perldoc.perl.org/Data::Dumper.txt

       @ColinTheMathmo Well, jwz also thinks regex is hard, so I'd take his opinions with a grain of salt. 😛 That said, there is something to be said for the power of C: Perl is the only "scripting" language I've seen that lets you use kernel system calls directly, even if your libc doesn't support them yet.

       @linuxtldr I feel like https://perlbrew.pl/ deserves a mention.

       The trick that mathematicians haven't quite figured out yet is that you can combine multiple letters into "words" and use those to name things. Then you don't need five scripts and three separate fonts just to give everything its own unique letter. #subtoot

       @kravietz @Lazarou English is not my first language, but is it correct to speak of a disfigured body if the person is alive?

       @begsby Works in PHP, too:$ php -r '$Ångström = 6200; echo $Ångström, "\n";'6200Or Perl:$ perl -E 'use utf8; my $Ångström = 6200; say $Ångström'6200Or Haskell:$ ghc -e 'let ångström = 6200 in print ångström'6200

       @piggo It's not quite an "f". Unlike "f", the long s "Å¿" has no (full) horizontal bar. (It may have a little semi-bar on the left, but not on the right.)

       @piggo Thanks to your post I've discovered that it is on my keyboard, kind of: The sequence of  f s produces a long s, at least on my Linux system. 👀

       @mjg59 Wait, you mean I don't have to burn a CD to install Linux? When did that happen?

       @foone IIRC the batch for command isn't a loop in the usual sense. It first builds a list of input strings (in various ways, depending on how you invoke for), then uses the "loop body" as a template string to replicate and substitute the current input string into (mail merge style). Finally, it takes the "loop bodies" with input values interpolated into them, concatenates them all, and evals the result.This has certain implications for performance, loop control, and the way regular %variables% work in these "loops".

       @foone An incorrect answer to the wrong question? What a time to be alive.

       @foone There is a Lisp compiler called "Python": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMU_Common_Lisp#Compiler_and_other_code_execution_units

       @foone Yes, but you do get longjmp, which can not only return to your caller, your caller's caller, etc, but also to yourself..

       @foone I like how it checks for you being naked before asking whether you're in Church.
