What is the point of auditors when, according to the Audit Reform Lab (based at U Sheffield) the Big Four only managed to spot problems prior to one in four major corporate collapses/bankruptcies since 2010.

(If the choice was will/won't collapse random conclusions might indicate a 50% success rate, so 25% in spotting the difference between success or failure really is pretty poor; yes I know I'm simplifying).

The only solace for the Big Four is other auditors were even worse

I'm handling sponsorships for this year's Perl and Raku Conference. Please share this far and wide so that we can get as many new sponsors as possible. ❤️

Everyone! If your #business depends on #Perl or #RakuLang please consider supporting the communities you rely on!

One good way to ensure a sustainable future for #OpenSource ecosystems like these, is to support active and fertile venues for learning and teaching these technologies.

Right now, you can help by supporting the Perl and Raku Conference, and later this year, the London Perl Workshop.

Is this relevant for you? Forward it to your manager! 💯
