But what kind of name have you made?
Based on the people thanking me for writing the book, for giving electronic versions away for free, and recommending and sharing it with other people, I sleep very well at night. Hopefully a fair percentage of those readers go on to write good code and avoid the pitfalls in Perl 5 that would all too easily ensnare novices.
Where did I say you made any money?
You complain about various attempts to help people write good Perl, claiming that they're merely snake oil and marketing every chance you get. Clearly you think that the people doing so are either trying to sell something or really bad businesspeople who can't—or won't—do so. I don't understand that. Wouldn't your time be better spent actually building something people want to use than a bitter, one-man countermarketing campaign?
