I've decided I don't want to be a manager. Every time you try to be responsive to your employees, they say you're being reactive and not proactive. And when you try to be proactive, they accuse you of being capricious and arbitrary. So I don't wanna be a manager.

If you're a large corporation, you can afford to pay the money to register patents, but if you're an individual like me, you can't.

When in doubt, parenthesize. At the very least it will let some poor schmuck bounce on the % key in vi.

The world has become a larger place. The universe has been expanding, and Perl's been expanding along with the universe.

There's many scripting languages in the world, Perl is a little bit special because it is based more on some ideas from the way natural languages work.

I just hope I'm never promoted to the level of my incontinence.

I'm afraid my gut level reaction is basically, proceed is cute, but cute doesn't cut it in the emergency room.
