Perl singlehandedly turned me off of using scripting languages for almost two decades. I stayed with C, C++, and C# and of course used Javascript for the web.
It wasn’t until I was “forced” to learn Python last year and started working heavily with AWS that I actually enjoyed scripting languages again for smallish glue type scripts.
This year I finally started using Node.
But yeah for career reasons, I wouldn’t tie my horse to Perl in 2019.
