I Love Perl 6 Because. I love Perl 6, because it's well on its way to solving all my problems with Perl, and a very large collection of others.

I love Perl 6 because it's not stopping at fixed problems or parity with other dynamic languages.

I love Perl 6 because it's not owned by one flawed personality, but instead by an entire flawed community of personalities.

I love Perl 6 because it's Perl. Except more so. Yet it's not too proud to be other languages if it needs to be.

I love Perl 6 because it's not going to be here until it's ready, and it's not going to be ready until it's good, and it's not going to be good until it's here. And I'm using it anyway, so put that Gordian Knot in your pipe and smoke it.

I love Perl 6 because it feels like trading my Perl 5 hammer for the Perl 6 Leatherman. Which is nice since I occasionally treat problems as a screw or a pipe. Of course, I'll probably still keep the hammer around for nails.

I love Perl 6 because I now get to learn Perl all over again, and I can still use it in the meantime.

I love Perl 6 because it can be readable by humans who do not necessarily speak Perl.

I love Perl 6 because it's the Perpetually Emerging Revolutionary Language.

I love Perl 6 because.  ¶ 9:08 AM
