Comment on What’s new in perl? by Dave Cross

Yeah, the definition of smart match has changed with every version of Perl released in the last five years. I’m very careful about how I use it.

And, Dave, everything you’ve mentioned was new in Perl 5.10 over five years ago. Plenty of other stuff since then. See http://www.slideshare.net/davorg/modern-core-perl (which is, in itself, now eighteen months out of date).

Although I haven’t been following the controversy too closely, I understand that smart matching isn’t. Not every new feature turns out to be a good idea, (unlike “say”, which saves all kinds of trouble).

I have a horrible feeling I might have been confusing this with Glasgow!

My memory of both times in Wolverhampton is Dominos and Catering.

Comment on Japanese colonial house, Taipei by davehodg

From what I know from people in Taipei, the local government doesn’t care about them at all. They’d rather put up a block of apartments much like the Hutongs in Beijing.

I understand that many of the surviving ones that are inhabited are owned by the various universities.

But yes, they’re lovely.

Hi, I too am fascinated by these buildings. Do you know where I can find out more information? Who owns them? What is being planned for them? They are beautiful and it would be such a shame to see them disappear.

Comment on Scott Kelby “Light It! Shoot It! Retouch It!” Seminar by Michael Zhang

I have attended a couple of Scott’s seminars and I share similar a experience. They are good value for money, but you can’t really expect too much for £60. I recently downloaded his iPad app and it’s okay, but again relative to the cost.

I agree with shooting tethered, so much easier.

I absolutely love London Zoo. A fabulous day out with some great photography opportunities. Nice shot of the tiger.
