See
http://blogs.perl.org/users/damian_conway/2019/05/why-i-love-perl-6.html
for Damian's short very article about Perl 6.
He is by far my favorite Perl speaker.
You may find his talk at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ob6YHpcXmTg
(skip to 8:25 for the meat of the talk) interesting.
It describes how to [inpractically ---mark] implement some Perl 6
ideas in Perl 5. If you don't what
my $n = 2; print "$n"; $n = $n + 1;
does in Perl 5 and don't know what object oriented programming is
you won't be able to actively understand the talk. I've
stolen things in his presentation style to use in my talks.
