Just a few noteworthy things I learned at YAPC so far:

From: http://www.yapcna.org/yn2013/talk/4608

Did you know that experimental features are explicitly labelled now?

   $ perl -v # v5.18.0
   $ perldoc experiment

Did you know that Dave re-wrote ALL the OO Perl docs back in 5.16?

   * bless is gone (explicitly discouraged). 
   * AUTOLOAD stuff is gone. (YAY!! RIP "OO Perl" 1999, Damian Conway, Manning Press) 

Read: http://perldoc.perl.org/perlootut.html

What is now encouraged?

   * Moose
   * Class::Accessor
   * Object::Tiny
   * Role::Tiny
