GitTip profile of the week

  
  Tadzik (Tadeusz Sośnierz)
  http://bit.ly/1qjtyaA
 
  Tadzik is a Perl 6 developer. A couple of weeks ago we mentioned the Space
  Invaders ("http://bit.ly/SRXtZW") clone he wrote in Perl 6. It would be
  great to encourage him to further work on that game, or to build more
  games in Perl 6. BTW Yours truly interviewed ("http://bit.ly/10BhjUy")
  him about a year ago.

  http://bit.ly/1qjsljy
 
  When upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 Yanick found out that KDE's Knotes has
  changed the format it was using to save notes and it could not upgrade
  the files itself. No problem. Perl with the help of Yanick could solve
  the problem. Code included.

  When a failure is not a failure
  http://bit.ly/1qjsljB
 
  Now that I see it I know what I have been missing lately. Barefeet

  the article. And if you don't have warnings on.
