Off topic: do you use raku in day to day life? I tried learning it but perl5 remains my go-to when I just need to whip something up

yes … I find it as useful as I used to find perl (spent 4 years as a perl coder back in the day) and use for ad hoc scripts … data migration, PDF/CSV scraping, some LLM prompt engineering in a business setting, wrote a module to manage/install Wordpress on EC2 for example

  raws-ec2 —eip —nsu launch
  raws-ec2 —q connect | pbcopy

mainly I find Raku (and the community) much -Ofun
