Larry Wall posted:Playing football is like programming in the large. You have to agree on a lot of rules to do it with other people. Perl5 doesn't make it terribly easy to agree on a set of rules, and we hope to make that easier in Perl6. You have to have discipline to do programming in the large, but you'll choose the discipline by turning up the big discipline knob yourself, not by having someone else turn it up for you. Perl6 will give you the big knob. I'm not aware of any other language making that kind of promise.

ashgromnies posted:That sounds interesting, what does he mean exactly? I haven't been keeping up on the Perl6 featureset. Honestly, I don't know, I was just making a wang joke. Which I seem to be doing a lot in the last couple days, that's a little troubling. :-/ anyway, found the quote here if it helps at all.
