About bbop.org

The Name

Black Box Operation is a kind of homage to the Santa Cruz Operation (SCO). It is also a description of the typical situation for users of computers; who have absolutely no idea what is going on inside the programs - let alone the box itself. The computer is essentially a black box.

Raku (formerly known as «Perl 6»)

I have a Raku blog at raku-musings.com.

I am developing courses in Raku; see course.perl6.eu for details (or kurs.perl6.no for the Norwegian version).

Why?

I wanted a short domain name for my personal web site, and bbop.org was simply the first vaccant and pronounciable four-letter one I came across, while trying to make up an acronym.
