Re^5: Calling splice() on Immutable Arrays

If you want to meet the most hateful and vile side of the Perl community or just generally bad programmers, take over a 16 year old module that has 30+ critical bugs that can't be resolved without breaking a good portion of Darkpan. *throws up hands*

I feel for you; but have no suggestions.

I railed against Readonly when it first appeared; but unfortunately, he recommended it in that book and thence after even usually competent and logical programmers became like wet-crotched, gooey-eyed schoolgirls in the presence of their pop-idols, leaping irrationally to its defense, perceiving all contrary opinion as a insult to their gods.

Then again, I railed against Java when it first appeared, and look where that got me:)

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
