#TIL: A driver's license in Norway can cost thousands of dollars. Tens of thousands of Kroner.
The more I think about it, the more I like it. It forces the existence of transit services.

#TIL you can concatenate "=~ s/…/…/r" in modern #Perl (in this case since Perl 5.14). Example:

say $b;
Output:
gnarzbar
