I wish I could participate... (May 2, 2015, New York)

With the Raspberry Pi and other SoC (System on a Chip) devices it is time for Perl to start using accelometers. There aren't a lot of CPAN modules doing this, but Device::LSM303DLHC handling the LSM303DLHC chip can provide access to the readings. Let's see what can you do with it?

Wouldn't it be nice if we could just take a chunk of arbitrary SQL and get a resultset from it? - Ovid asks and responds to himself with the release of DBIx::Class::Report. But when would you need it?

We all know (or should know) that computations in a computer are not exact, but when Sinan puts it in front of us it is still very disturbing.

Exodist is planning to release a new version of Test::More to CPAN. If that version breaks some a CPAN module, that CPAN module will become uninstallable. (Well, sort of.). Not only that. If the new version starts to report success when something failed then your code might be full of bugs while everything looks fine. In case you want to neither of this will happen, you can put some energy into looking at the changes and testing the new version.

The QA Hackathon is an excellent event and dispite its name it is not only about Quality Assurnce. It became a more generice event when some of the people maintaining the core infrastructure needed for the Perl world get together for some much needed face-to-face conversation. I had the luck participating in two of such events, and now I had the privilage to even provide some funds to run the event. If you, or your company relies on Perl, this is a very good place to ensure the continous improvement of the whole ecosystem around Perl.

Absolutely awesome! Yanick had to test his Angular.js based code. So what did he do? He wrote a plugin for Perl Dancer. Jasmine is a behavior-driven development framework for testing JavaScript code. The new Dancer::Plugin::Test::Jasmine allows you to integrate the tests written in Jasmin with the test you write for your Perl-based back-end.

'use MyModule if $cond;' won't do what you might expect. So what can you do? (... and what < href="http://www.reddit.com/r/perl/comments/2zojah/loading_modules_conditionally_and_other_options/">Redditors think about this.)

Sometimes automated tests can cause you to add many unwanted twitter accounts following many other people. This simple Perl script helps you stop following everyone.

There are some really crazy people out there. For example Barbie, who has been uploading modules to CPAN every day for more than a year now. That's real persistence.

Running a radio station is not easy task. How can you make sure the listeners hear the music in acceptable quality? Do you sit an listen to every song, or can you automate it?

How can you test a system that is supposed to time-our after 100 days? Your can't wait a 100 days for that. What about 1 minute? Is that still too much?
