Hi, The separation of the new space rocket from the mother station is progressing fine. The perl6.org site now welcomes the visitors to the The Raku Programming Language. The Perl 6 Weekly newsletter was renamed to be "Rakudo Weekly". You can subscribe to it with your e-mail address to get notifications every time a new edition is published. In the Perl world, I am glad to see the first announcement from The Perl Conference that will take place in Huston next summer. I am really glad with such an early announcemet. Enjoy your week!

November 9, 2019 in Barcelona, Spain. A free one-day conference for Geeks and Friends |
|
Our client is looking for a Perl programmer who prefers laid-back and low-key over flashy and dramatic. For a work-until-your-eyes-bleed Silicon Valley start up, look elsewhere—this company is for chill folks who want to come in, do a great job, and sleep at home instead of on a cot at the office. Feeling inspired to pull up a chair and get settled? Then read on! |
|
Our client is looking for someone who can blend good DBA skills with the best of the DevOps philosophy. This king or queen of the mountain should know how schema management fits into a CI/CD process, but should also be able to explain it clearly to a junior dev fresh off the bunny hill because hey, weren’t we all novices at one point? |
|
Whether you’re in Portland or Poughkeepsie, Kansas City or Kalamazoo, our client’s relocation package means that Perl programmers from coast to coast are eligible for this role. Starting to feel a twinge of wanderlust? |
|
Look there, up in the sky: It’s a bird—it’s a plane—it’s you, saving UK job hunters from disaster one click at a time! Could you be the next Captain Career Search or Wonder Worker? If you’ve ever dreamed of donning the tights and mask, or even if you think you haven’t got the legs for the tights but would like to make a difference to people all over the UK, then read on. |

Family is great, but working with them can be a nightmare, am I right? Cousin Edward nipping out early, Aunt Phyllis getting into the sherry before closing time . . . But what if you could get close-knit clan vibes working with a large company that started out as a family business? |
