        Hello there!
         
        The good news is that Perl Conference in the USA was just announced. It will take place between 17-22 June, in Salt Lake City, UT.
         
        Also Sticker You is not sponsoring the Perl Maven site. Yay!
         
        What I did not really like is the loud in-fight in the Perl community.
         
        Anyway, enjoy you week!

                 A practical demonstration of validating an XML Document against Document Type Definition (DTD) and XML Schema Definition (XSD) files. Though not every liked it: Reddit

                 The Feuture::AsyncAwait CPAN module is sufficiently non-alpha to be used by other modules.

                 Perl::Critic can help you potential bugs or just make your code more maintainable.

                 A call for cooperation, that was apparently met by mostly negative reactions (see Reddit). I think it is very unfortunate, but I am not surprised.

                 Zoffix, a well know proponent of Perl 6 tried to further clarify what the Perl community might think about the subject.

                 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!
