Perl turns 25 today. Damn, a quarter of a century. I feel old now.
Feel free to light 25 candles today for "the duct tape of the Internet," or if you prefer, "the Swiss Army chainsaw." By either of its future nicknames, version 1.0 of the Perl programming language was released on Dec. 18, 1987 by its creator Larry Wall.
