Interview: Damian Conway (Linux Voice)
Linux Voice magazine has an interview with Damian Conway, one of the chief architects of Perl 6. In it, he talks about Perl 6 a bit (of course), but also about Perl, in general, as well as about teaching and learning programming. "Anyone who believes you can teach programming in an hour has no idea about what programming is. I think that I finally thought that I was a confident programmer maybe about four or five years ago, so after about a quarter of a century of coding. I felt that I was an ordinary good programmer by that stage. I don’t think you can even teach HTML in an hour, to be brutally honest."
