The wagers are in, and for many DevSecOps teams, the scores are looking a little lean. While containerization is the category of the year, the clues from 250 DevSecOps leaders show that many are still struggling to clear the board of CVEs and risk.

This season, Activators took part in the Season of Giving Challenge, focused on supporting food banks in their local communities during the holiday season. The response was incredible.
Together, we raised over $5,800 and supported 20+ food banks, helping extend impact across communities near and far.
We’re proud of the care and intention behind this effort, and of the way our community continues to show up when it matters.

@massa @KC1PYT @Perl @BrendanEich That’s well before #WebASM. Was it using #ActiveState’s browser #Perl scripting that only worked in #Microsoft #InternetExplorer?

@keithzg #ActiveState is now focused on being its customers’ single source for scripting runtimes paired with a desired mix of additional libraries to include. As you’ve discovered, you have to manage it all through them very bureaucratically.
On #Windows, your best bet is either #StrawberryPerl or the #Perl that comes with Microsoft #Windows Subsystem for #Linux distributions. The latter is more up-to-date, though Strawberry has almost caught back up.

@jesse @genehack @d #ActiveState knew no fear—they made a #Microsoft Active Scripting (formerly #ActiveX Scripting) engine called #PerlScript. You could use it in #Windows Scripting Host or embed #Perl in HTML <script> tags that #InternetExplorer would run if the machine had PerlScript installed.
I don’t know if their hosted ActiveState Platform will build it for you now, though.

So ActiveState has changed the licensing on their products from free to paid, including for old versions, including those you had downloaded and installed before they blogged about that change back in 2021. Other than that blog post they didn't inform anybody of that change. I'm not even sure you can change licensing conditions after someone has installed your product and accepted the license conditions.

@ovid @fuzzix I don’t do #Windows #Perl either, but the main thing is you use #ActiveState’s package manager instead of #StrawberryPerl’s full inclusion of #CPAN support and a C compiler toolchain

@fuzzix @ovid And there’s always #ActiveState #Perl v5.36, but it has a pretty onerous free usage limit of one copy running at a time: https://www.activestate.com/products/perl/
Otherwise it’s time to pony up: https://www.activestate.com/solutions/pricing/

ActiveState is retiring and open-sourcing Komodo IDE: https://www.activestate.com/blog/activestate-komodo-ide-now-open-source/
It was a great piece of software. I used it on and off when I worked there, but it wasn't ideal for sysadmin work -- it was excellent for web dev, though. Its integration with ActivePerl and the PDK was my usual focus with it.
