good. let the bastard rot.

oddly enough, a coworker and i were joking about how perl 6 would come out in the next 100 years on monday and just a few days later larry wall made us look foolish.

when i worked in webhosting, we dealt with a lot of attacks that used xmlrpc for any number of reasons. 100% of the time when the customer asked if they needed xmlrpc, the answer was no. it's still a horrible function with way too many bugs and bad coding practices to be useful anywhere, so the risks far outweigh any potential benefits.

an extremely unfortunate thing to hear this morning. her legacy lives on though, both in detroit and around the country!

same here, had to do a double take when i saw the headline in my email. it's been so long perl 6 has become somewhat of a running joke.
