And who tells me that you'll not need to change your mind again in 2020?

If there's a reliable, repeatable benchmark showing Rakudo can sustainably outperform Perl in the large, I'll change my mind. "Slower than Ruby parsing log files" suggests that's unlikely to happen.

YOU convinced me back then with the argument that Perl 5's inner workings have become unmaintainable and Perl 6 will be much easier to work with.

XS is still a hazard, but I didn't count on Perl adopting a yearly release cycle.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
