Not a question, more of an FYI/concern: If GoDaddy is providing DNS to Dreamwidth, you may want to check this out if you haven't seen it already: https://www.theregister.com/2025/04/17/zoom_outage_godaddy_blamed/

11 years ago, GoDaddy also used to provide DNS for my employer - after they got one singular complaint about spam for our domain, they yanked the entire domain offline. I suspect (without any kind of evidence, solely going on feelings here) something similar may have happened to Zoom. Either way, if GoDaddy is providing services to Dreamwidth, it's likely worth following up with them on what their policies are around when they'd intentionally turn DNS off for Dreamwidth.

For a dev question:
If I wanted to get started with learning perl in 2025, as someone who does best when trying to solve a problem or puzzle - what would be a good place/way to start?
