Perl is the one language I can say I -hate-. It is a crazy language, and I'm surprised nobody uses it anymore except when they are descending into the rats nest of company legacy code from 15-20 years ago (personal experience).https://twitter.com/fhuszar/status/1072784875709759488 …

Hey, can you tell something about perl? Why do people avoid it?
-
Well, I can tell you why -I- avoid it: I don't hate myself :) . But seriously, Jeremy is right about the benefits- that it has a lot of good tooling around it and it's highly expressive. But there's a major downside to it which is it's a totally bonkers language.
