i never wrote perl in any serious fashion, but i've always tried to use as much information in the source so i can figure out how i did it. I enjoy reading the submissions to code golf challenges, though. A few of the more esoteric language users have let slip they write a compiler to go from readable code to the target unreadable code.

Whenever i see terse C or load bearing perl it does look like line noise.
