I just uploaded a video I'm calling "You've been lied to about PERL" that I was hoping to get feedback on. I'm not sure if I'm going to leave it on youtube - I'll probably either replace it with a v2, or make it available as paid content when I do somewhere. Either way, it's intended as a crash-course for people who are either coming from shell scripting, or know another programming language, so I go quick, and I don't cover everything.

I think the video is a success if it gets people curious about perl, so I wasn't necessarily shooting for the most polished thing in the world. That said, if there's something critical I didn't include, or any feedback you have, I'd love to hear it. It's about a 90 minute course, so you might want to skip around, or 2x the speed, or who knows put it on in the background as ASMR.
