More and more Perl Monger meetings are bursting out of their geographical
niches by offering a live stream of their talks. Thanks to this new
movement, one can now attend to the Perl Monger meetings in San Francisco,
New York and Toronto without the hassle of renting a private plane. Nifty,
eh? - `/anick

different ways roles are implemented in Perl. So, I guess that we can say

Building your own Moose

Moose by itself is already scrumptious, but most of us top it with

to shave on the boilerplate that the import of all those extra modules
require.

Hash slices can replace loops

and shows us a few tricks to juggle with them most effectively.
