It's highly technical, but focused. Posts are not someone random's mind vomit on a page, which makes it worth most people's time to read. Here's a nice article he wrote on tracing Perl programs recently: http://www.effectiveperlprogramming.com/blog/1429 Brett -- B.

As usual, we will meet at the Black Labrador around 7pm. Ask for "Wade" or "the Perl Group" and they'll point you to us. As with all social meetings, there will be good food, good drink, and plenty of conversation (on Perl and not). All are welcome, whether you've been to a technical meeting or not. Here is a chance to meet and chat with other people interested in Perl. I have had a couple of people say that they weren't sure where the Black Lab was located. It is on Montrose, just north of Richmond. There is usually plenty of parking in the back.

Why? Because he just won't tell you what he needs or wants. It's not because he doesn't want anything; it's just that telling you isn't logical. If he needs it or wants it, he'll get it himself, right? In the meantime, you're left with trying to figure out the perfect gift for someone who spends 18 hours at a stretch in front of his computer (including meal times) and answers most of your questions with, "Um, okay" while looking like he wonders what planet you're from. So here's the secret to making Andrew happy with your holiday gift. Get him the perfect programming book from O'Reilly. Just look (or ask him) what color his favorite O'Reilly books are, and select one you don't see on his shelf. He uses ebooks, you say? That's easy too: ask, "What do you think about JavaScript Web Applications?" Keep at it until you find one he doesn't know. Sure, it's a little work but it'll pay off. This year you won't have to see his unenthusiastic smile as he opens yet-another-geek t-shirt that in a moment of madness you thought he?d find amusing. ************************************ ** Python *** Learning Python Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $54.99 Now: $32.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zqlan8lgcihaif9pvjh6ap8kok1i5oge4gi8s9b0 Head First Python Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zllmr91u0pv1e0nmhke6de3t75o9acagaj987na0 Programming Python Ebook Was: $51.99 Now: $25.99 Print Was: $64.99 Now: $38.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zub9p08us5di9u1i6ual0i0gucaptefrvjscv558 See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z61jait9kalji7gpslv8oi972gpm05thrdtcno28 ** Ruby ** Learning Ruby Ebook Was: $27.99 Now: $13.99 Print Was: $34.99 Now: $20.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z8lq2etkp3ljk77rbmum6402ale828i2ilc7q318 Ruby Cookbook Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zdnovkonqin88c2e9q5t38tf1hvkep57mcc4m1t8 Ruby Best Practices Ebook Was: $27.99 Now: $13.99 Print Was: $34.99 Now: $20.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zkn4fvpjccbc69m92edv2tso24m25u4lbiabh9jo See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z08lhvdu5f6dgtb8ek9andcgrlltrchgp8acikr0 ** Perl ** Learning Perl Ebook Was: $31.99 Now: $15.99 Print Was: $39.99 Now: $23.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z3tlas4hm52s5ef9sjbm0jrm9inqhu9q0iuq4bko Programming Perl Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z3u7e5rsr7kmu839a4m3t57fikeb1jcvoiecidqg Perl Cookbook Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.95 Now: $29.97 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zoiso4kbgug4sptf90t86o2aj87nucgstskf92og See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zm2r98ao0fqdoeg8h8nmhhm42aeooc0b3jnqemlg ** Rails ** Head First Rails Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zmp0efcreqb773vorjl8no9cmaf7lb53bcbiavvg Enterprise Rails Ebook Was: $35.99 Now: $17.99 Print Was: $44.99 Now: $26.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z4keat4sm3te2ishtq1e8qd68ad88ogu7n9n1rq8 Advanced Rails Ebook Was: $27.99 Now: $13.99 Print Was: $34.99 Now: $20.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1za2an6lm0003f3k60qg47r052svjc0ieqh9gssb8 See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zvbrocd51n96qeqoiie2up3496rl8kc4eektrdu8 ** JavaScript ** Learning JavaScript Ebook Was: $27.99 Now: $13.99 Print Was: $34.99 Now: $20.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zs31evms08up0pn5gdhtpqpb0dai27uet983t690 Head First JavaScript Ebook Was: $31.99 Now: $15.99 Print Was: $39.99 Now: $23.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zb3o9im22u14d0oa1cdj45i9kl30g1gug9jl5ji8 JavaScript Cookbook Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z2hot4ace2o8e2c1l9cksfjqldqmfqmoa73pfeg8 See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zdlu10u2hf18907jvf4claqk2f1kd72p8iqg3lrg ** C# ** Head First C# Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zlhce3ihtvh54faumqit5km9qskrkd3o9gqeuhog C# 4.0 in a Nutshell Ebook Was: $39.99 Now: $19.99 Print Was: $49.99 Now: $29.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zu9eflagcdlnn59vhug6p4pev4m8a3ii71k4kidg Learning C# 3.0 Ebook Was: $31.99 Now: $15.99 Print Was: $39.99 Now: $23.99 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z2tkugfkcirogml6tpg4c7vf1qs244ql1u4tv9k0 See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z94c4oh5k7j3t5ve34rr8vahipn6ms3i19imnr6g ** Java ** Head First Java Ebook Was: $35.99 Now: $17.99 Print Was: $44.95 Now: $26.97 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zh6916ii1l1p282jaudmdf5heitm5uieeb6e0tt8 Java in a Nutshell Ebook Was: $35.99 Now: $17.99 Print Was: $44.95 Now: $26.97 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zb0jkoaspgctesahrkb3qe4hq05vmr217av40160 Java Cookbook Ebook Was: $34.99 Now: $17.49 Print Was: $49.95 Now: $29.97 Buy Now: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z67akmphn5200a2b76niuiqcnskpm38mfs19v9ho See more books in this deal: http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z35675b3116iq94knu70fkf9vhm7cbcgltlgkego Share this deal.
