"The programmer may not even be aware that some of
   his coding is intended to compensate for a limitation
   of the machine.  In which case he could hardly be
   expected to mark it.  For instance, much programming
   has to be done to overcome the limited precision of
   our machines-- or better still, the fact that they do
   not calculate with real numbers but only with a
   limited set of rationals.  Yet programmers tend to
   forget that these are limitations of the hardware and
   come to think of them as facts of life."

      Gerald M. Weinberg,
      "Psychology of Computer Programming" (1971)


The Raku Study Group

Dec 8, 2024, 1pm in California, 9pm in the UK

An informal meeting: drop by when you can, show us what you've got,
ask and answer questions, or just listen and lurk.

Perl and programming in general are fair game, along with Raku,
