No blog yet. After I get the first round of revisions done on pitchforked I'll get something up that details the process. I've been taking notes throughout the whole thing, just haven't gotten around to it yet! I'll post again once that's ready.
I love CGI, DBI. I can write my own SQL. I don't need an ORM. What modules do you suggest for developing web apps using Perl. Mason or Template Tool kit or something else.
Local High-school track is ideal for barefoot running. I have been running barefoot for the last 3 years. My knees don't hurt anymore. The ground up rubber surface provides a bit of cushioning.
What kind of track are you running on? If you tried that in the mid-west in the dead of summer on a rubberized track you would probably burn your feet and get blisters. My younger brother has tried it and experienced as much.
Michigan is a strange place to be living right now. There's still work for skilled technology folks if you look hard enough. What we don't have is work for the thousands of jobless factory/industrial workers. Growing up in Michigan, there were still people saying "My parents work for GM in the factory, I'm going to get a job right out of highschool - 30 and out, retire at 48." Unfortunately, all these people are now learning exactly how wrong they were. The age of plentiful factory work for anyone with a highschool degree is over in Michigan, and the statistics reflect this. The state is in a painful transition period - the country is feeling the effects as well. It's the end of industrialization and the beginning of a society based on service and technology. Unfortunately, Michigan, until recently, wasn't willing to admit that things were changing. Many of the jobless are in denial - that's why we lead the nation in unemployment.
Yep. It is very very bad here if you are looking for work. As more workers get laid off it gets even harder. ANY job is tough to find, let alone white collar work. Even traditionally in-demand jobs like nurses and truck drivers have tightened up. Michigan has passed a good film incentive package but the jobs films generate tend to be temporary and the volume of films shooting in the state would have to be enormousness to make a big difference.
