i in no way meant to insult anyone.

If you want no explanation for what i said, stop reading.

When i was talking about use strict not working well under the situations, i was designing a natural language processor that took user input strings and, well, processed them. The system was a learning system, which meant it had to be able to rewrite its own code as well. NO other language but perl can do anything like this that i've seen. (i don't count lisp because it has other problems)

The setup i was going for used nouns, verbs, and modifiers. A noun and verb are easy to set up and use. The modifiers were a royal pain. They could modify things in every which way and they had to stay organized and play nice. When i was taking a generic user string, and putting it through all these inane processes to find out what that string 'meant', i looked and looked for better ways to do things. Given the complexity of the modifiers, there seemed that other solutions had other problems with them. The set of problems inherent in the design i chose were the problems. The problem had nothing to do with perl being able to or not being able to do something. So to stop this long story, i got out of some of the problems i had by not using strict and using loopholes that strict would have caught, then patched up the loopholes as best as i could.

It's not a good solution, i know this. i'm sorry i ever said what i did, but i can't take it back (time is only one way unfortunately).
As for your other suggestions on my getting a low rating, merlyn is a saint, insulting him just doesn't work. He does perl better in every way, every day more than i could do in my whole life.
vroom has made an excellent web site. It's a shrine for me.
i'm not going to even go into the headaches of suggesting another language other than perl. Java blows goats. There is no web language better than perl, only a fool would say otherwise, only an idiot would believe otherwise. i'll admit i'm stupid, but i'm no fool or idiot
You don't have to worry about lives being threatened, i'm suicidal, not homicidal. And as for no one helping me here. This is a learning experience: what not to say on perlmonks . i have failed with flying colors (yet again). My best bet is to let this be my last post. Maybe than i can test the limits of low posts with this one that offends so much.

So, yet again, i'm sorry. Maybe i should explain more, but most likely i should just talk less (and anyone who read through all this garbage can agree with that =)

PS Please tell me if yet again i said the wrong thing. Until i learn how to speak in a monk-friendly way i'll probably annoy a lot of people on accident. i wish i didn't. i can't help being who i am, and i can only change when i've learned what to change into. And yes, ghost is an option.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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.
