From experience with many developers, I can say that stupid things can
be done in any language. Things can also seem to be cleraly written,
but not thought out that much. People with Perl tend to be in two
groups: the 'script' one which ranks close to the bottom of the barrel,
still relating to 5.0 issues of perhaps 20 years ago, not using
'warning' and 'strict' and such, and the 'program' one that uses proven
multi-tasking frameworks, contemporary object-orientation, and such,
which of course also tend to care more about design and programming
than the former group. The first group is into 'Using Perl' and in
'Using C++' or how to use a hammer, while the second group is caring
more about the hosue to build than using the hammer (ツ)
