Is there a way to make a readonly blessed reference that detect attempts to modify it at compile time of the script? Package Readonly , Package Const::Fast and Readonly::Tiny die at runtime

Hi,

I have been programming in perl for the last 25 years but things have dried up with my long term set of clients recently. I see a lot of posts on here about how there is a huge amount of perl code out there and a need for experienced perl developers ... but I am struggling to find it. I used to go to jobs.perl.org but there hasn't been much there for ages. Upwork seems to have minimal perl projects, so I am a bit stumped. I was on LinkedIn for ages but it became too much of a spammer's paradise.

I'd really appreciate some tips on how to re-expand my client base in 2024!

Rob

Going nuts with this regex, looking for second pair of eyesThis works and returns several files:
```
my $image_name = quotemeta('Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-1.05.14');
my $files = $wac->get_all_files_in_dir($dir . '/uploads', qr/$image_name.*\.png$/);

```

This returns no files:
```
my $image_name = quotemeta('Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-1.05.14 AM');
my $files = $wac->get_all_files_in_dir($dir . '/uploads', qr/$image_name.*\.png$/);
```

Note the space in the file name before AM.

This also returns no files:
```
my $image_name = quotemeta('Screenshot-2024-02-23-at-1.05.14\s*AM');
my $files = $wac->get_all_files_in_dir($dir . '/uploads', qr/$image_name.*\.png$/);
```

I tried with and without quotemeta and with and without /Q /E to no avail.

Is it possible the space is some kind of invisible UTF8 character? This is driving me nuts.

**UPDATE:** I jumped on regex101.com and copied and pasted in the file name from the terminal and indeed there appears to be some kind of hidden character that is not whitespace:

Did a hex dump of the string:
