The winter season really flies, at my home; it seems like just a day or two ago, I was cooking for friends in November, and here we are with winter about to give one more good cold spell, then spring can start here in South Texas. It's been a quiet week in my corner of the Perl world, but I've found a few things of interest! D Ruth Holloway |

The corner of Gabor
A couple of entries sneaked in by Gabor.
|
by Gabor Szabo (SZABGAB) Unfortunately CGI.pm was removed from Perl, but still many sites use it. This is a simple way to test simple CGI-based applications. | 
|
|
by David Farrell (DFARRELL) In part one, we learned the basic components of XS, and integrated two C functions into Perl. This chapter is going to show you how to define xsubs that accept multiple parameters, and define your own logic, instead of using XS as a Foreign Function Interface to a C library. | 
|
|
by brian d foy (BDFOY) List comprehension in Python is similar to grep and map in Perl. brian d foy takes a stab at the idea. |

According the Guinness Book of World Records, the fastest growing plant is a species of bamboo, which grows at a rate of up to 91cm a day. The fastest growing economy in the world is currently Ethiopia, with a projected growth in GDP of over 8% this year. And although the record for fastest growing Perl team might not be recorded in the Guinness Book of records, our client is a strong contender. |

If you’re currently a senior full stack developer looking to take on your next role as an architect then this is a great opportunity to do so in a company that is both ambitious and supportive. Increased job satisfaction is another perk, as their codebase is notably new and clean and the team are committed to using modern practices. |

I love working in a vibrant, modern space. If you’re going to spend all day at work, it might as well be somewhere you enjoy being, rather than a cubicle farm. This client has a workspace I’m actively jealous of! |
