Subject: [Southampton-pm] March social meeting - 8pm Wednesday + possible
	technical meeting
Message-ID: <CADc0ge8qkeOHN3Cfrpyp_anjzUmPLDBnQrBwWD0a5gF3j=crrQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

This month's social meeting will be on Wednesday 5th at 8pm in the
Platform Tavern as usual.

Last month I went to visit the nice people at the Southampton hacker
space.  Their venue could easily accommodate us for a technical
meeting, and they've got a projector there if we need it:

http://www.somakeit.org.uk/

Who's up for arranging a technical meeting later in the month? :)
Does anyone have any suggestions for talks they would like to give or
attend?  What about timing - should we see who can turn up on a day
other than a Wednesday?

Kind regards,

--

Brilliant idea! I could give a talk on DateTime or Unicode madness.
I would love to see:

   - Perl 5.18, 5.20 features in action..
   - Practical Perl CPAN modules
   - Something on Perl OO, like using Moose, or what's new.
   - Something on test driven programming in Perl
   - What's new in Perl QA frameworks
   - Interactive packet manipulation in Perl.


I would like to see:

   - Performance profiling?
   - Perl Best practises?
   - Something on Perl web automation
   - Cool configuration/setup for Perl development

or alike..


See you all tonight

Vytas

Enjoy without me, as usual I wont be there because of missus college night.

I'd *love* to see Tech meets where we have a projector available.

I gave two demos recently to the office which I'd bring to a tech meet:

* zsh for git development
* bling out vim for Perl development (can easily fill an hour)

Give me a month or so and I can demo Perl+Mojolicious+rapid app dev
using a platform-as-a-service provider

TBH I spend enough time looking at impenetrable unfathomable uncommented
code, of which I wonder what the point is,  in $DAYJOB . I found myself
wondering what the point here was.

Duncan, I got authorised to release Perl time module I talked about, hence
I will be releasing my first cpan module fairly soon.. well probably
sometime in April (: I will share the link to it once its packaged up, you
will have lots of fun reading my comments, if I'll leave them :)

Don't know if this is relevant, but Number::Fraction was conceived as a

Ooo that's cunning, that module that Duncan just linked to uses overloading
of constants (docs:
http://perldoc.perl.org/overload.html#Overloading-Constants ).

This allows it to turn the string '1/2' into a Number::Fraction object at
compile time. Very clever.

I wonder what the scope is, surely just constants in the calling packing,
what if more than one imported packages set up similar constant
overloading? I can't imagine this is a very used feature of Perl. Cool
never-the-less.
