Re:Why Perl? by TheRevoltingX on Tuesday November 15, 2011 @10:49AM (#3238595)
Hear hear, Perl developer here. I've used C/C++/ObjC/Java/Erlang and I just love Perl for gluing it all together.

I must admit my stack is outdated, I still use CGI::Application, though I love Moose. I haven't kept us since catalyst, etc started to appear. CGI::Application works really well for me.

The other day I implemented push notification and geolocation bases functionality for a client in a couple of days.

To them it looks like magic, but to me it's just awesome that there are libraries in cpan to do just about everything making it a real time saver.
