schestowitz                                        <p>Let's assume that you are working on a code base and notice that it has some minor issue. For argument's sake we'll say that it has some self written functionality and that the language's standard library has added identical functionality recently. Let's further assume that that said implementation behaves exactly the same as the self written one. At this point you might decide to clean up the code base, Nov 16 06:22
schestowitzmake it use the stdlib implementation and delete the custom code. This seems like a nice cleanup so you then file merge request to get the thing changed.</p>Nov 16 06:22

schestowitz                                                <p>I was reading recently about some significant Python 3.11 performance improvements, and I was wondering whether Perl 5 still gets significant performance improvements on each version - even though it might be more mature, thus more optimized in the first place.</p>Nov 16 06:31
-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-Perl performance evolution over the last decade | Dimitrios Kechagias [blogs.perl.org]Nov 16 06:31
schestowitz                                                <p>I thought I'd compare the final releases of alternating versions starting with 5.12.5 released 10 years ago, using a benchmark I made for a cloud vm comparison. As is the case with any benchmark, it might not be representative of your own workloads - it benchmarks things that are relevant to me and also some things that I would avoid, but are used by many modules and are notoriously slow (mainly Nov 16 06:31
schestowitzDateTime and Moose). However, it is more representative of "real-life", with results that are not lost in noise, than say, PerlBench (which has a different purpose of course).</p>Nov 16 06:31

schestowitzIf you’re looking for a job in tech, “there’s a potentially lucrative opportunity waiting for you in climate tech,” says Michelle Ma, with many climate-related jobs “specifically geared toward those with traditional tech skills.”Nov 16 15:45
schestowitzMa says workforce development groups such as Climate Draft, Terra.do, and Work on Climate are aiming to create climate career paths for laid-off tech workers. Nov 16 15:45
schestowitz“There’s sometimes a perception among tech workers that they don’t have the skills to work in climate tech, which is an industry that often deals with hard sciences like chemistry and materials engineering. While that is sometimes the case, what people fail to realize is that these startups still need software engineers, and they still need product managers,” said Anshuman Bapna, founder and CEO of Terra.do.Nov 16 15:45
