| 00:43 | <@macdjord> | Alek: Oh, man, that takes me back. I remember my dad, who was a Perl programmer, taking me to a talk about that module, by its creator, when I was a teen. Must have been about 20 years ago now! |
| 00:46 | <@macdjord> | The author mentioned getting a quite amusing email from a Romanian dev who found that a natural and intuitive way to program, and related the 'oh, /duh/' moment when he realized that 'Romania -> ROME-ania', so, yes, they probably speak something a lot closer to classical Latin than most people~ |
| 01:03 | <@macdjord> | Reading that document is both hilarious and a sharp reminder of why I /do not program in Perl anymore/. |
| 01:18 | <@celticminstrel> | I don't think Romanian is all that close to Classical Latin… |
| 01:18 | <@celticminstrel> | It probably is a bit closer than most of the other Romance languages tho. |

| 08:03 | <&McMartin> | I definitely recall being told as a kid that Romanian was the Romance language closest to Vulgar Latin, yeah |
| 08:04 | <&McMartin> | That was mumblety-mumble years ago, and I don't remember where (Spanish class, maybe?) but many of my teachers were also full of shit, so I dunno |

| 09:50 | <@macdjord> | celticminstrel, McMartin: It's also possible the Romanian in question happened to be a Latin scholar for completely unrelated reasons and the guy who wrote the mode was just /wrong/. |
| 09:52 | <@macdjord> | For that matter, that documentation describes the regex syntax but says it hasn't been implemented yet; given how core regex functionality is to Perl, I question whether any Perl developer could use that module to any serious purpose no matter how natural they found it. |
