We have at least one, probably more positions to fill for telecommuters doing development at Grant Street Group, almost all in Perl. I've been there for about 5 years now and feel like I've been treated pretty well. The company is family-oriented, doesn't work me too hard, but hard enough that I'm not lazy. I've been pleased with my pay and bonus and the health coverage is excellent. They've sent me to YAPC for the past 3 years and sending me again this year. Most of the developers get an opportunity to go to YAPC or another conference or training event every year or two. The travel is light, usually limited to 3-4 trips each year to Pittsburgh, PA for meetings and parties. They will pay to outfit your office with a computer (Mac or PC), pay for your high speed Internet, and help you maintain your equipment. Andy Moore is also working for us and Josh is moving back to the Kansas City area and is a recent hire as well. I think we've got a very solid group of developers, so if you're interested, feel free to follow the link and post your resume or contact me or Andy Moore for our experience with the company to see if it sounds like a good fit for you. http://www.grantstreet.com/careers/perl-software-developer/ If you like to get paid to do Perl and work from home or telework or whatever, Grant Street Group is still hiring. Cheers. -- Andrew Sterling Hanenkamp sterling at hanenkamp.com 785.370.4454 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I wonder if the Go compiler treats recover() specially to optimize happy paths. It certainly could. Go is the first compiled language I've seen with "Yoda's exceptions" as discussed thirteen years ago on the perl six development lists. They recommend against using them, and didn't even bother to suggest repanicking with the received exception after recovering an unexpected panic topic. Which is obvious to anyone who likes exception-based control flow, so no hard feelings. I like the way that the "defer" keyword, which is like on_exit from CPAN (my version works better! prefer local$on_exit, it will continue to work right even if garbage collection starts getting deferred) doubles as "catch."
