Well, despite what Perl snobs may think, people are not going to learn Perl because it's cool and "post modern."

    No, the part where Perl snobs think that people will learn Perl because it's a postmodern programming language, not the speech where Larry said he considers it a postmodern programming language.

    Seeing that that article is some 7 years old does that make Perl a "Post-Post-Modern" language now then?

    Surely the whole "post modern" bubble has gone now, much like the Web 2.0 thing will at some point. Declaring a paradigm change by fiat is just, well, so post modern...
