Perl Weekly=20

Hi there,

How time flies, it is incredible. It feels like we just attended
TPRC in Toronto. Well the next edition is coming soon,
June 24-28, 2024, to be very precise. At the end of the
conference in Toronto last year, I was determined to attend
the next one in Las Vegas. As we all know, you can't plan
everything and execute it too as per your wish. Honestly speaking, it is
the only annual event where you get to meet and greet all the big guns. I
would recommend everyone who can afford to attend, must book the ticket (
https://tprc2024.sched.com/tickets ) and enjoy the Early
Bird
offer.

In the last edition ( https://perlweekly.com/archive/661.html ) of the
weekly newsletter, Perl Toolchain Summit 2024 was
discussed in details. There was even call for sponsors for the event as
well. I know how hard it is to find a sponsor these days. I remember there
was a time when you see sponsor desks all over at the entrance of event.
Before, the name of event was enough to bring in sponsors but time has
changed and you need to share reasons (
https://www.perl.com/article/5-reasons-to-sponsor-the-perl-toolchain-summit
) to find the sponsor. Thank you, Olaf Alders, for the
dedidated blog post to gather the support and sponsors for the event. This
year, it is happening in Lisbon, Portugal. Not far from
where I am based but it is invite-only event. Having said,
anyone interested to be part of the group, can start contributing to the
Perl toolchain.

Talking about sponsors, I made an appeal for sponsor (
https://perlweekly.com/archive/644.html ), Nov'23, for my pet project, The
Weekly Challenge - Perl & Raku ( https://theweeklychallenge.org ). I did
receive couple of offers but nothing materialised unfortunately. The
exercise taught me a lesson, though. In order to find a corporate sponsor,
one need to be a registered entity. Since I ran the project single handedly
for 5 years now with zero experience of running and
managing a registered entity, I find it involves lot of paper works and an
accountant to look after finance matters. As you have guessed it correctly,
this needs funding too. So I am going around the circle and not getting
anywhere. I then decided to submit the project for Outreachy
2024
sponsored by TPF. In the past, Open
Food Facts
, is the choosen one and is likely to be the case this
time too. Time to start fresh again ...

Today is the last day of long Easter Holiday in England. I
had planned so much to do in 4 days break but could only
managed to do few. I am happy the school is still on long break at least. I
can enjoy Monday for a change. How was your weekend?

Enjoy rest of the newsletter and look after yourself.

Hi there,


=20


How time flies, it is incredible. It feels like we just attended trong>TPRC in Toronto. Well the next edition is coming soon, ng>June 24-28, 2024, to be very precise. At the end of the confere=
nce in Toronto last year, I was determined to attend the ne=
xt one in Las Vegas. As we all know, you can't plan everyt=
hing and execute it too as per your wish. Honestly speaking, it is the only=
annual event where you get to meet and greet all the big guns. I would rec=
ommend everyone who can afford to attend, must sched.com/tickets">book the ticket and enjoy the Early Birdrong> offer.


=20


In the last edi=
tion
of the weekly newsletter, Perl Toolchain Summit 2024ng> was discussed in details. There was even call for sponsors for the even=
t as well. I know how hard it is to find a sponsor these days. I remember t=
here was a time when you see sponsor desks all over at the entrance of even=
t. Before, the name of event was enough to bring in sponsors but time has c=
hanged and you need to -sponsor-the-perl-toolchain-summit">share reasons to find the sponsor. =
Thank you, Olaf Alders, for the dedidated blog post to gat=
her the support and sponsors for the event. This year, it is happening in <=
strong>Lisbon, Portugal
. Not far from where I am based but it is <=
strong>invite-only
event. Having said, anyone interested to be par=
t of the group, can start contributing to the Perl toolchain.


=20


Talking about sponsors, I made an /archive/644.html">appeal for sponsor, Nov'23, for my pet project, ref=3D"https://theweeklychallenge.org">The Weekly Challenge - Perl & Rakua>. I did receive couple of offers but nothing materialised unfortunately. =
The exercise taught me a lesson, though. In order to find a corporate spons=
or, one need to be a registered entity. Since I ran the project single hand=
edly for 5 years now with zero experience of running and m=
anaging a registered entity, I find it involves lot of paper works and an a=
ccountant to look after finance matters. As you have guessed it correctly, =
this needs funding too. So I am going around the circle and not getting any=
where. I then decided to submit the project for Outreachy 2024ong> sponsored by TPF. In the past, Open Food Fact=
s
, is the choosen one and is likely to be the case this time too. =
Time to start fresh again ...


=20


Today is the last day of long Easter Holiday in En=
gland. I had planned so much to do in 4 days break but cou=
ld only managed to do few. I am happy the school is still on long break at =
least. I can enjoy Monday for a change. How was your weeke=
nd?

Enjoy rest of the newsletter and look after yourself.

Hi there,

How time flies, it is incredible. It feels like we just attended
TPRC in Toronto. Well the next edition is coming soon,
June 24-28, 2024, to be very precise. At the end of the
conference in Toronto last year, I was determined to attend
the next one in Las Vegas. As we all know, you can't plan
everything and execute it too as per your wish. Honestly speaking, it is
the only annual event where you get to meet and greet all the big guns. I
would recommend everyone who can afford to attend, must book the ticket (
https://tprc2024.sched.com/tickets ) and enjoy the Early
Bird
offer.

In the last edition ( https://perlweekly.com/archive/661.html ) of the
weekly newsletter, Perl Toolchain Summit 2024 was
discussed in details. There was even call for sponsors for the event as
well. I know how hard it is to find a sponsor these days. I remember there
was a time when you see sponsor desks all over at the entrance of event.
Before, the name of event was enough to bring in sponsors but time has
changed and you need to share reasons (
https://www.perl.com/article/5-reasons-to-sponsor-the-perl-toolchain-summit
) to find the sponsor. Thank you, Olaf Alders, for the
dedidated blog post to gather the support and sponsors for the event. This
year, it is happening in Lisbon, Portugal. Not far from
where I am based but it is invite-only event. Having said,
anyone interested to be part of the group, can start contributing to the
Perl toolchain.

Talking about sponsors, I made an appeal for sponsor (
https://perlweekly.com/archive/644.html ), Nov'23, for my pet project, The
Weekly Challenge - Perl & Raku ( https://theweeklychallenge.org ). I did
receive couple of offers but nothing materialised unfortunately. The
exercise taught me a lesson, though. In order to find a corporate sponsor,
one need to be a registered entity. Since I ran the project single handedly
for 5 years now with zero experience of running and
managing a registered entity, I find it involves lot of paper works and an
accountant to look after finance matters. As you have guessed it correctly,
this needs funding too. So I am going around the circle and not getting
anywhere. I then decided to submit the project for Outreachy
2024
sponsored by TPF. In the past, Open
Food Facts
, is the choosen one and is likely to be the case this
time too. Time to start fresh again ...

Today is the last day of long Easter Holiday in England. I
had planned so much to do in 4 days break but could only
managed to do few. I am happy the school is still on long break at least. I
can enjoy Monday for a change. How was your weekend?

Enjoy rest of the newsletter and look after yourself.

Issue #662 - 2024-04-01 - TPRC in Las Vegas



latest | https://perlweekly.com/archive">archive | edited by manwar.org/">Mohammad Sajid Anwar

=20

This edition was made possible by the n.com/manwar">supporters of our cause.

=20


You can read the ne=
wsletter on the web
, if you prefer.

=20





=20


Hi there,


=20


How time flies, it is incredible. It feels like we just attended trong>TPRC in Toronto. Well the next edition is coming soon, ng>June 24-28, 2024, to be very precise. At the end of the confere=
nce in Toronto last year, I was determined to attend the ne=
xt one in Las Vegas. As we all know, you can't plan everyt=
hing and execute it too as per your wish. Honestly speaking, it is the only=
annual event where you get to meet and greet all the big guns. I would rec=
ommend everyone who can afford to attend, must sched.com/tickets">book the ticket and enjoy the Early Birdrong> offer.


=20


In the last edi=
tion
of the weekly newsletter, Perl Toolchain Summit 2024ng> was discussed in details. There was even call for sponsors for the even=
t as well. I know how hard it is to find a sponsor these days. I remember t=
here was a time when you see sponsor desks all over at the entrance of even=
t. Before, the name of event was enough to bring in sponsors but time has c=
hanged and you need to -sponsor-the-perl-toolchain-summit">share reasons to find the sponsor. =
Thank you, Olaf Alders, for the dedidated blog post to gat=
her the support and sponsors for the event. This year, it is happening in <=
strong>Lisbon, Portugal
. Not far from where I am based but it is <=
strong>invite-only
event. Having said, anyone interested to be par=
t of the group, can start contributing to the Perl toolchain.


=20


Talking about sponsors, I made an /archive/644.html">appeal for sponsor, Nov'23, for my pet project, ref=3D"https://theweeklychallenge.org">The Weekly Challenge - Perl & Rakua>. I did receive couple of offers but nothing materialised unfortunately. =
The exercise taught me a lesson, though. In order to find a corporate spons=
or, one need to be a registered entity. Since I ran the project single hand=
edly for 5 years now with zero experience of running and m=
anaging a registered entity, I find it involves lot of paper works and an a=
ccountant to look after finance matters. As you have guessed it correctly, =
this needs funding too. So I am going around the circle and not getting any=
where. I then decided to submit the project for Outreachy 2024ong> sponsored by TPF. In the past, Open Food Fact=
s
, is the choosen one and is likely to be the case this time too. =
Time to start fresh again ...


=20


Today is the last day of long Easter Holiday in En=
gland. I had planned so much to do in 4 days break but cou=
ld only managed to do few. I am happy the school is still on long break at =
least. I can enjoy Monday for a change. How was your weeke=
nd?


=20


Enjoy rest of the newsletter and look after yourself.


=20
