I think I am entirely safe to say that each point in your summary could equally apply to most of your own posts on here. | [reply] |
Hi sundialsvc4, I am glad that I had still one vote available today to be able to down vote your post, which I just did (and I do that extremely rarely, I don't think that I have casted negative votes more than half a dozen times in the last 18 or 19 months that I have been in the Monastery). Nothing personal against you, but that enabled me to see that I am far from being the only one: a -14 vote record (as of now) for your post is a clear sign that many monks here think that your post is an irrelevant, disdainful and intolerant caricature of reality (and BTW, for now, your post gets the title of the worst node of the week and the second worst node of the month, and I think your post deserves it). My hopes of seeing Perl 6 becoming mature and production-ready one day have seriously shrunk in the last years, and I am sad about that, but please show at least some respect for people who are still trying to give it birth, even if you think, rightly or wrongly, they are doing it the wrong way.
Your "get lost" concluding sentence is the straw that broke the camel's back and convinced me to down vote your post, I might not have done it but for these two words. And remember, even if it might eventually fail, that Perl 6 was a project of the Perl community, including people like Larry, Damian, Tom and Nat among others (as far as I remember), nothing to do with an "evil" cuckoo that would try to rob another bird's nest.

You keep saying "you" and "your" as if I'm writing this code. I'm not. What I said is that I see value in the compiler being able to optimize code it compiles before version 1.0 comes out.
I will not, because we have a simple disagreement on a single point, "get lost". It is frankly not only unproductive but also infantile for you to suggest it.
