“didn’t you read my blog?!?” – isn’t that (also) a cool answer to your boss, if he asks for latest updates?
And of course it’s not the “public blog” (I would get crucified or sacked for that), but the company internal blog on Atlassian Confluence – which this company mainly uses for their wiki.

running perlcritic on legacy Perl code
I got asked “at work” to run perlcritic on some legacy Perl code, and I got flooded with complaints. So I invested a little time in finding out, how to switch certain checks off.

Perl’s Encode.pm: calling encode differently on the same encoding handle does not yield the expected result
I have a scenario, where I call encode on the same encoding handle a couple of times and with different values for CHECK.
