@vaporeon_ the problem was hoping that perl was still being regularly used in 2025
@wallhackio Are you saying that they don't use Perl in 2025? What do they use instead?
@wallhackio Anyway, I'd assume that the average Mastodon computer toucher is ancient enough that they have experienced Perl when it was popular...
@vaporeon_ i only experienced perl for a couple weeks during a "programming language paradigm course" in 2017 (oh my GOD i am OLD) so i honestly am not too familiar with any of its use cases in the modern tech world
@aescling @vaporeon_ imagine knowing what you're talking about, couldn't be me
