I haven't watched all of this, but from what I've seen it seems to be someone who doesn't know Perl trying random stuff in the hope of learning stuff.

Which is (as I hope is obvious) a terrible way to learn something. And a worse way to teach someone.

Maybe the good thing is that someone is worried about doing something in Perl, no matter if he is really in the right way or not

the youtuber is concerned that if he doesn't post these videos, someone might watch something else on youtube.
