@tripleo You’re thinking of #Perl’s “taint mode” (stop your teenage giggling), where outside data is untrusted unless it’s the extracted subpattern match in a #RegularExpression.
I tend to follow the logic of awk better than the one of sed (not being a vi enthusiast), but it is good to see when one might be better than the other:
@cheeaun I guess the #regexp is something like https://(domain)/@(username)/(toot_id). Do you remember where in/can you point me to your code that does this?
Diese WebDevs, deren Formular auf der Webseite des Online-Shops .email als TLD nicht anerkennen und eine gültige Mailadresse wollen: Weiß man da schon genaueres oder ist denen Umsatz einfach egal?
@regehr a good friend of mine had to maintain some #perl scripts. He calls them "write-only".
I have a growing list of #regexp and #sql select queries, which need sub- and sub-sub-queries (and so on). Those really make sense when I write them, but are hard to figure out after a week working on different code.
