Comment: These days, It's Mojolicous all the way (Score 1) 519
All my web projects are now use mojolicous. It's a great platform to develop on and easy to get started. And make sure to try the websocket and events support. Very fun stuff.

Ron Paul is a joke and yes he probably would keep to the constitutional limits, the problem is that he would more or less abolish not just the bad aspects, but the good ones and would in all likelihood shrink the government far more than what is required to bring things back into control.
Translation: Yes, I believe in the constitution of the united states and I will follow its principles unless there is something I want from the government tit that it does not authorise. Then, I will quickly ignore the constitution and ridicule it as out of touch. Because I KNOW BETTER DAMN IT!

there isn't that much in the way of fundamental differences between a RC aircraft with a camera and a drone.
That's the best joke I've heard in a long time!

Discussion is over. The primary demographic for BMW's is insecure middle aged men who can't even listen to a computer for fear of degrading their "Macho"! Soooo pathetic.

If you like LWP, you should check out the UserAgent for Mojolicous along with its CSS dom selectors and other goodies. Amazing stuff.

Mojolicious is a complete HTTP 1.1 stack. No mod_perl required. It has its own built in webserver, hypnotoad which can be used in production. You can install Mojolicous with a single curl command
sudo sh -c "curl -L cpanmin.us | perl - Mojolicious"
And three lines can make a complete "hello world" application....
use Mojolicious::Lite;
get '/' => {text => 'Hello World!'};
app->start;
Part of what make Mojolicous so powerful is Perl's syntax and expressiveness. I know it's hip to beat up on Perl these days, but perl is still way ahead of most languages in its ability to be expressive. The author of Mojolicous is a really good programmer and insanely picky about well structured code, consistency and test driven development. Hence, the framework is very easy to use and understand. This framework is definitely worth a look.

Mojolicious makes web development fun again. Things that took hundreds of lines of code are now possible (and elegant) in just a few lines of code. This is a really well crafted web development framework, I'm hooked!

Ahhh, Quite is the Babylonian god of being quiet. Spell check failed me again. Thanks for catching that.

It's called peace and quite. Some crazy Americans believe that having enough space around you so that you cannot hear or see your neighbours is a good thing. Then, when YOU are ready to interact with people you simply go to some public space and interact. Just because some Americans don't want to live like rats in a city does not make them crazy. Some people don't mind the screaming kid next door, or the barking dog down the street but some do.
Also, it's not a question of how much resources each person uses, it's a question of how many people are using them. No amount of conservation will offset unrestrained population growth.
