Sinan Unur has been quite busy discussing the fallout from the Heartbleed OpenSSL bug and how it relates to Perl.

Not exactly Perl, but if you are into sending e-mails, then you might want to read this from Ricardo Signes.

CPANdeps lets you see the test results of all the dependencies of a given module in a single page.

It's funny to see a web-site titled 'PHP Developer' publishing articles on how to do things in Perl. This one is using Email::Sender::Simple and Email::Simple to send an e-mail.

In this part we see the use of s - step in, n - step over, r - step out, and c - continue running.

Sebastian Willing compares 8 different ways for passing arguments to a function checking their speed.

Codecube.io is another web site that allows you to run arbitrary code via the web page. Now, thanks to Eric Johnson, it also supports Perl.

More than 10 years after Iain Truskett, the original author of this module has passed away, and after it changed hands several time, BooK (aka. Philippe Bruhat) adopts the module. The little we can do to preserve the memory of the people who have contributed to the Perl world.

Maybe releasing a CPAN module every day is crazy, but Neil Bowers puts his hand on something that is extremely difficult to do and very valuable: persistence. He has decided to release a new version of a CPAN module every day, but he also offers a bunch of less involved tasks that us, mere mortals, can stick to. So if you'd like to reach something just make sure you make a step every day. An alternative to this idea came from Eric Johnson recommending to write code every day.

Did you know, that you, as a CPAN author, can put a banner text on the top of the RT pages of your modules? That can be a very good way to tell users of your code how, and where to submit bug reports.

The Perl 6 weekly

by Jonathan Worthington (JONATHAN)

Jonathan Worthington writes about C# and how he implemented threading in Perl 6 running on top of the JVM. It isn't easy to read, but as usual it is filled with sentences like this one: 'If anything, we want such inevitably unreliable programs to reliably fail, not reliably pretend to work.'

Tadeusz Sosnierz has written a car-racing game in Perl 6. Has the speed of Perl 6 improved so much that you can already play racing games?
