Can't find the other thread.Also I KNOW the time is up already.
Assuming the file somefile.js at the remote host some.host.com contains a variable named payload who's value is 'hello world', the message hello world will be displayed after the remote script loads, consider the contents of somefile.js:
A train hits a bus load of nuns and they all perish. They are all in heaven trying to enter the pearly gates past St. Peter.
He asks the first nun, ''Sister Karen, have you ever had any contact with a penis?''
The nun giggles and slyly replies, ''Well once I touched the head of one with the tip of my finger.''
St. Peter says, ''OK, dip the tip of your finger in the holy water and pass through the gate.''
St. Peter asks the next nun the same question, ''Sister Elizabeth have you ever had any contact with a penis?''
The nun is a little reluctant but replies ''Well once I fondled and stroked one.''
St. Peter says ''OK, dip your whole hand in the holy water and pass through the gate.''
All of a sudden, there is a lot of commotion in the line of nuns, one nun is pushing her way to the front of the line.
When she reaches the front of the line St. Peter says ''Sister, Sister what seems to be the rush?!
''The nun replies, ''If I'm going to have to gargle that holy water, I want to go before Sister Mary sticks her ass in it!"

it's "Hello, world!", not "hello world".

If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.

If the automobile had been invented by RMS Matthew Stallman, a Rolls-Royce would today cost nothing, we'd all be skilled mechanics, and the car would have no engine.
If the automobile had been invented by RMS Matthew Stalin, a Rolls-Royce would today be free, we'd all be skilled mechanics or at least have access to the materials needed to understand the machine fully, and the car would have an engine.

If the automobile had been invented by Peyote `Simon` Joints, we'd all be using wind-up toy cars.

If the automobile had been invented by James Gosling, you wouldn't be able to afford a Rolls-Royce, it wouldn't have wheels, and you would have to drive it like the Flintstones.

If the automobile had been invented by Harold Abelson, it would eject you off the driver seat when you least expected.

If the automobile had been invented by Guido van Rossum you would be given a standard issue vehicle in return for your everlasting soul, it would only steer where Gweedo wants it to, and you‘d have to strap yourself in and ball-gag yourself to drive it.

Due to being slow as fuck, Ruby requires greater processing power to operate at acceptable speeds, which consumes more energy and therefore has a greater carbon footprint. Thus, using Ruby contributes to climate change and will, in due time, obliterate mankind. Yukihiro Matsumoto is murderer.

But it would actually take you from place a to place b quickly and efficiently, which is all you should care about.

If the automobile had been invented by Bill Joy, he would've abandoned it ages ago for a rickshaw, while everyone on the streets would be riding rice burners.
I was going to tell you to go back and read what I specified but then I realized by the subject of this thread you must of already done that and simply been too ignorant to understand it. This is not a factual error. Keep searching, please.
While all those other languages (Lisp and Smalltalk being particularly noteworthy offenders) tried to pretend that operating systems don't exist, and that lists (for Lisp) or objects (for Smalltalk) are the be-all, end-all of getting shit done, Perl did exactly the opposite. Larry said: Unix and string processing are the be-all, end-all of getting shit done.
And for many tasks, he was absolutely right. So Perl is better at Unix integration and string processing than any language on the planet.
