May 23rd, 2007
I think this sums up the Perl experience pretty well.

Perl is a good coding language, when I first started doing web stuff, I started with perl scripts for like a guestbook, counter, forum, etc. I think perl can be good if you somewhat know what you are doing and read over the script to understand it.

Amusing how Perl haters think that Perl somehow forces you to write unreadable code. On the contrary, Java FORCES you to do things only one or two ways. In Perl, you can make your code look like any other language or you can make it unreadable – THAT’s THE POINT! Clueless people see the unreadable examples (written so that they can’t be read) and miss that point.
You could take your cartoon and have the guy puking exception stack traces from uncompilable Java code when the programmer doesn’t conform to the exact way of doing things that Java expects. Now THAT would be realistic!

Hey JoeTheDumber, java stack traces are the most useful thing I’ve ever seen come out of any language. You do something wrong in c and what does it say? Seg Fault? Java stack traces tell you exactly what line your program broke on, through which ever other methods that called the function that it broke in, and what exactly it did wrong. So basically what you’re saying, is: you can’t trace what your program is doing when java explicitly dumps it to the terminal for you and then you blame java for being helpful.
