[Coke] (mojo6) I started working on that, with the least bit of brain I could, which involved mojo-util. I finally have some cycles available, but probably need someone to work with to try to port mojo more aggressively. (otherwise, I tend to work more on shiny things or cleaning up tests, things like that.) 00:34

atroxaper Current Pod::To::HTML do so '<a href="<code>boom</code>"><code>boom</code></a>'. And I think it's wrong... 08:24
FROGGS yeah, I can agree on that :o) 08:31
I guess href="#" makes most sense, because you do not want to have huge anchors or even newlines in them 08:32
08:37 SigmaWP joined
atroxaper FROGGS: maybe. But as I understand from S26 <a href="boom"><code>boom</code></a> will be the best. I mean we should get bare content of L<> and put into href. 08:37

atroxaper Btw, is there list's shift by from the last element instead of first. Or list's push to the first element? I need to write simple stack. 09:11
09:11 xinming joined
masak I mean just what I say. which part of the sentence did you find confusing? 09:12
atroxaper: .pop -- .unshift
atroxaper: prefer the .push/.pop pair to the .unshift/.shift pair for performance.
vendethiel rewrote his 100-lines C++ queue class in 20 lines of P6
atroxaper masak: the sentence isn't usual)
masak granted. 09:13
but it's not very complicated, either.
atroxaper masak: thanks!
jnthn .shift is pretty efficient these days since it just moves a start pointer. 09:16
yoleaux 03:06Z <Mouq> jnthn: Something is broken on the latest Moar such that htmlify.p6 no longer works, dieing with "Error while compiling op call: Local '__lowered_param_0' already declared"
03:07Z <Mouq> jnthn: htmlify.p6 in perl6/doc, that is
jnthn Hm, that's nothing to do with Moar, that's a Rakudo optimizer issue...
Looks like, anyways... 09:17
masak jnthn: is that to the point where .shift isn't significantly slower than .push ?
jnthn If you s/push/pop/ then yes
masak right, meant that.
jnthn unshift can be a little more costly
masak ah, thought so.
so it still makes sense to prefer .push/.pop
jnthn but if the thing is in a steady state of shift/unshift rather than continuous growth it'll come out about the same 09:18
For documentation alone, if you mean "a stack" then push/pop make sense. :)
atroxaper jnthn: yes. I want a stack. 09:19

Reenable usage of nqp::nativecast, and its tests

This reverts commit c0f68bca0a3d34a7d59f872fce0e7f34892cdff2.		 11:00
volaj: 20424bd | (Tobias Leich)++ | lib/NativeCall.pm6:
bind result of nqp::nativecallcast so there is no extra container

Otherwise calling nqp::isint($result) will blow up.
volaj: 019d26e | (Tobias Leich)++ | lib/NativeCall.pm6:
box native string returned by nativecallcast when we get one
volaj: ec3f509 | (Tobias Leich)++ | lib/NativeCall.pm6:
simplify sub nativecast

We do not need to box the return value anymore since we provide the proper box target now. A call looks now like: nativecast(int32, Int, $opaque-pointer)
atroxaper How can I define a module more correctly? module Foo {} or class Foo; And what is the difference? 11:05
I have a problem... If I define "module Foo { sub bar(){} }" then i can't call Foo.bar(). But if I define "class Foo; method bar(){}" I can call Foo.bar() 11:07
I don't want to use is export.
FROGGS Foo.bar() is always a method call of an instance of a class 11:08
Foo::bar() would be a sub call in a module/class Foo, the sub must be our scoped then
m: module Foo { our sub bar() { 42 } }; say Foo::bar 11:09
camelia rakudo-moar e21b8f: OUTPUT«42␤»

zengargoyle vendethiel: in Passing parameters ... Also, in Perl 6, the last expression (or last line) of a function is automatically returned. ... might be better mentioned after a non-say function. 14:07
vendethiel not for now
14:08 sqirrel left
zengargoyle i.e. it seems to imply that 'Hello, Stephen' is the return value. 14:08
and would make more sense with something like sub add($n) { $n + 1 } 14:09
becase it's the REPL that's not printing the return value since it saw output. 14:10
14:11 atroxaper left
zengargoyle m: my $rv; sub hello(Any $name) { $rv = say "Hello, $name" }; hello("Steve"); say $rv; 14:12
camelia rakudo-moar 25c511: OUTPUT«Hello, Steve␤True␤»
psch i think that's better solved with mentioning that the REPL doesn't print the return value when the last statements is a say 14:15
in "Getting started" there's mention of how the REPL prints the retval or nothing if there wasn't one
maybe add that the return value of say gets swallowed by the REPL because it's assumed that it doesn't matter 14:16
or is it output to STDOUT in general? something to that effect
vendethiel psch: it's mentioned already 14:17
psch yeah, i just saw :) 14:18

zengargoyle i just think that if you introduce a rule, it shoule be with an example that shows that rule, or at least not with an example that demonstrates an exception to that rule (unless you point out the exception) 14:23

zengargoyle then again, the REPL seems to be full of weirdness with nested scopes and such. 14:26

moritz another option is to run END { say now - BEGIN now } 15:46
it's not quite correct (it doesn't count compilation time prior to that time), but it's a good start
FROGGS I think in perl6-bench it runs an empty program ten times to measure the startup time, and this gets subtracted later 15:47
15:47 Ven joined
gtodd moritz: oh good ok 15:48
vendethiel moritz: CHECK instead of BEGIN ?
15:48 Akagi201 left
FROGGS do we have CHECK? 15:48
moritz vendethiel: then it won't count compile time at all
vendethiel oh, you want to count it
gtodd FROGGS: yeah I thought of just timing the naked startup and subtracting :) 15:49
15:49 Akagi201 joined
gtodd FROGGS: I didn't really look into setting up my own eval server ... if it is not too complicated that is what I am going to do :) 15:50

Easy enough to steal from the roast-data project which is already doing that. 16:07
anyone mind if I rip out the Order::Decrease tests from roast? 16:09
gtodd ok sorry to blather on .... just so I 'm getting this straight ... I just did time perl6-j -e 'END { say now - BEGIN now }' which printed out 0.2249989 and "20.04s user 1.34s system 174% cpu 12.266 total" so this tells me it seems to take about 12 seconds to start the jvm (a mechanical clock on my desk roughly confirms this) the 20s user being something to do with threads/multicore or in any case not for my brain to de

gtodd if I remove that time from perl6-j it comes second to perl6-m moar and ahead of perl6-p parrot which I gather is expected behavior these days ... 16:15
16:17 _Slade joined
colomon_ [Coke], FROGGS: should the Order::Decrease tests be removed or renovated? 16:17
gtodd so the goal is parity re "correctness" vis-à-vis the SPEC but for now ..... moar = fastest parrot = most "correct" jvm == "safest" or something like that?
FROGGS colomon_: as I understand it there are tests for less/more, and the others are kept as regression tests, which does not make much sense 16:18
gtodd: jvm is not really safe
gtodd: parrot was reliable until like a week ago
(we broke it)
and yes, moar is the fastest 16:19
colomon_ FROGGS, [Coke]: Huh. Well, I guess I'm against deleting things that we don't understand why they are still there at all. Maybe give a day or two for someone to protest to their proposed deletion?
16:20 Akagi201_ left
gtodd FROGGS: ok ... I'm sure parrot is just "resting" :-) 16:20
FROGGS colomon_: that already happened, TimToady also said something about that
gtodd: I am about to fix the regression btw
colomon_ FROGGS: Ah, well then, burn it.
jnthn JVM is safest when it comes to concurrency stuff :) 16:21
gtodd FROGGS: possibly jvm == most useful for getting people to try perl6 ... or maybe perlito ...
jnthn gtodd: Most people will get bored waiting for it to start up... ;) Unless they have a specific interest in JVM, Moar is the best bet for new users, I think. 16:22
FROGGS yeah, I think so too
"here, install that" ... and three minutes later they can play
gtodd yeah ... 16:23
but hmm eval server + web-ish front end .... (maybe perlito too) and a way to save snippets somewhere ...
16:23 raiph left
FROGGS gtodd: yes, that idea flies around from time to time :o) 16:26
gtodd maybe that would be a perlito front end specific sort of thing for $FUTURE with a web repl (a la Juila) and ways to save edit code in some fancy HTML5 Web30 thingy
could work for perl5 too :-D

[Coke] colomon_: the tests were added when we switched from decrease to less. 17:04
IMO, only makes sense to have stuff like that in roast across perl 6 spec release boundaries, and we haven't crossed one of those yet. 17:05
TimToady tends to agree

[Coke] will remove them later tonight, methinks. 17:05

that involves work, though, so that won't happen so quickly. :) 17:07

18:54 treehug88 joined
TimToady STD doesn't know the set operators yet 18:54
and you can't modify a set because it's immutable

jnthn You'd be putting a new resulting set into the contariner there, though...
FROGGS ohh, that's set, err, sad
TimToady yes, we could fake it with the container, as we do with strings
FROGGS I always that the ??= works with every infix

TimToady Set is not mutable either; set() is just Set.new in disguise 19:00

TimToady std: my @a = 1,2,3; @a [X*]= 4; say @a
camelia std 0f2049c: OUTPUT«ok 00:01 126m␤»
jnthn I can see why the latter doesn't work 19:01
I can't see why the set ones don't.
19:02 Rotwang left
jnthn STD has an awful extensibility-killing hack, alas... 19:02
[ <?before '='> <?{ $infix = $<infix>; }> <infix_postfix_meta_operator($infix)>
So infix postfix meta-operators can only start with = :P
TimToady yes, '=' is a bit of a special case
jnthn OK, we're missing that special-casing in Rakudo...what is actually demanding the before, and not letting it fall out of LTM?
oh, the need for the block maybe... 19:03
TimToady I don't remember why, offhand
jnthn Anyways, seems our infixish could do with a little re-org...
19:03 treehug88 left
TimToady could've been some limitation of the P5 support for doing fancy stuff like passing the infix match to the subrule 19:06
or maybe it was somehow related to making sure that the LTM didn't suffer an exponential explosion somewhere 19:07
as it is, that one case pretty much doubles the number of infixes
if you try to include the = in the LTM, which I don't think it tries to anymore 19:08
so it might be a fossil
zengargoyle i sorta thought SetHash was the mutable version of Set 19:09
jnthn k
TimToady zengargoyle: it is
jnthn Still got $dayjob things to tend to for now, so can't look at it for the moment.
TimToady you can do $set<foo> = True if $set is a SetHash, but not if it's a Set
hoelzro let's say I have a role that uses some helper classes, and now I want to expose those classes for extension to the outside world. My::Role::Inner doesn't seem to work; should it? Or should I just convert the whole thing into a module? 19:10
TimToady and the SetHash could implement the op= directly, instead of relying on a container 19:11
jnthn hoelzro: You can't sanely put non-lexical things inside of a role, due to the genericity of a role.
TimToady much less GC load to avoid creating new set objects continually
hoelzro jnthn: ah, ok
19:12 spider-mario joined
jnthn hoelzro: We should probably make it an error to do so. 19:12
Rather than them just vanish into the ether...
hoelzro heh
jnthn Even then it's all rather suspect to nest things inside the role.
hoelzro I'm beginning to see that
=)
jnthn Because we don't make all the inner things generic either.
TimToady we work very hard to keep our intentional genericity separate from our accidental genericity in p6
jnthn So much can go wrong. 19:13
TimToady p5 was so accidentially generic
hoelzro I found some interesting behavior where it worked fine when the methods were in the "default" consumer class of a role, but when I moved the methods into the role, my script broke
in an unpredictable way
and although I will probably move past this design and this sort of thing should be discouraged, I was thinking on mentioning it as a possible rakudo bug 19:14
jnthn Thing is, the classes inside the role will end up closing over a single copy of the type variable - the latest one...
And any other role params.
hoelzro oh, that's interesting 19:15
jnthn Which is not a semantic I like.
hoelzro now, if my outer role is not parameterized...should it matter?
jnthn Well, all roles are parameterized
19:15 hoverboard joined
TimToady the apocalpyses wanted Forests of Frogs, but we never quite got there, since it entails virtual class names 19:15
jnthn They all get an implicit first parameter which is ::?CLASS
Which is used for the type of the invocant. 19:16
hoelzro oh, duh
jnthn Otherwise, composing a role into a few classes and expecting multi-dispatch to do the right thing wouldn't work out well
(That was actually broken in an earlier impl of roles, 4 years ago.)
hoelzro well, lemme see if I can code up a small example 19:17
my module has gotten quite big
jnthn: if you're curious: gist.github.com/hoelzro/e03fc6ab275563643d65 19:19
don't ask me what madness started this =)
I'll be doing some refactoring after work to fix this 19:20

rindolf TimToady: are you on Reddit? If not - you should be.
PerlJam: I'm fine - philosophical.
PerlJam: I socialised with some dog owners/etc. today. 20:09
hoverboard fwilson suck it
rindolf A 12 years old boy enjoyed my new Emma Watson factoid.
timotimo what was that?
hoverboard ezech_ centos
TimToady hoverboard: you seem to be on the wrong channel 20:10

rindolf PerlJam: are you on reddit? 20:11
TimToady: meow!
hoverboard TimToady, apologies, was trying /amsg without knowing what it did 20:12
TimToady hugme: hug hoverboard 20:13
hugme hugs hoverboard
PerlJam rindolf: I have gotten on reddit. I'm not on it right now.
hoverboard ):
rindolf PerlJam: yes, I meant if you have an active reddit account. 20:14
PerlJam aye. Idon't reddit much though
It turns out that I'm not very social :)
TimToady needs to be on writit, not reddit
rindolf PerlJam: heh, not true.
TimToady: heh.
TimToady or maybe wrottit 20:15

Make CURL::File faster

This gets us back the time we lost in the spectest recently. Part of the speedup is attained by only going through the directory of the CompUnitRepo only once: this behaviour may need tweaking in certain situations.
rindolf TimToady: reminds me of groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/fc-sol...sages/1301 20:16
TimToady: reddit is kinda like a new (and in most respects - better) Usenet
TimToady: Usenet has become unusable now. 20:17
It was good up to the end of Web 1.0 or so.
[Coke] reads blogs.perl.org/users/chad_exodist_g...oming.html and wonders if we have any fallout. 20:18
rindolf TimToady: you should totally do an "I am Larry Wall, the creator of patch, rn, perl and Perl - ask me anything."
20:20 skids left
FROGGS jnthn: I think I'll know what block triggers the parrot fail in the next hours... 20:22
rindolf Arguably both patch and rn alone were more important than perl and Perl. 20:23
[Coke] I think we're missing a dep in the moarvm rakudo build.
(with -j9, it tries to copy perl6-m into place before the setting is built.
rindolf TimToady: I'd love to see you on ##philosophy too.
TimToady rindolf: self-promotion is not really very high on my todo list these days, nor is writing my memoirs... 20:24
FROGGS [Coke]: ahh, that kind of dep

Remove tests for old version of Order

There was never a "released" perl6 spec for this, so we don't have to test/support the old values - they've already been removed from rakudo.		 20:25
rindolf And maybe it's me, but I think Perl 6 was good while it lasted and we should now rethink our strategy. It's far too perfectionist and 2nd system effect.

zengargoyle i think there are already plenty of TimToady answering questions and rambling alredy on YouTube. :P 20:25
TimToady rindolf: it's just you :P
rindolf TimToady: OK, you can still be on reddit, and answer questions or post interesting stuff.
TimToady: I kinda have the Cassandra syndrome. 20:26
[Coke] rindolf: I imagine you'll not get a lot of traction with that train of thought unless you have specific ideas about what else to do besides work on Perl 6.
FROGGS rindolf: it really is just you :o)
TimToady every time I answer a question on reddit, I forget a Japanese verb :)
rindolf TimToady: or www.shlomifish.org/humour/fortunes/...ybody-else
TimToady: heh, believe in yourself.
TimToady I'd rather believe in using the time I have left usefully. 20:27
rindolf TimToady: "every time you masturbate god kills a kitten", right?
TimToady: ah, you can become rich easily enough.
And then have MOAR time.
TimToady: charge people for public speeches.

TimToady is not the least bit interested in making a lot of money 20:28
rindolf TimToady: or collect donations after that - stand-up philosophy.
TimToady: don't you want more time?
FROGGS rindolf: you can't buy time basically
rindolf lizmat: well, tomorrow i may get hit by a bus.
TimToady money and time are only slightly interfungible
rindolf FROGGS: well, time >>> money.
FROGGS rindolf: only sort of 20:29
[Coke] multi-dim arrays are NYI, correct?
rindolf I have a lot of time because i'm happily unemployed, but i need money.
lizmat [Coke]: yes
rindolf My parents mostly support me.
TimToady my most precious resource is my energy, and I have only so much of that to spend each day
rindolf and also national insurance.
TimToady: I have more and more energy.
And i'm 37.
And don't exercise a lot.

eval_lives_ok introduces a new scope

[Coke] there, only 991 rakudo directives that don't have an RT or a NYI associated with them. :|
lizmat it seems to be the same as candidates
I'm trying to grok what you meant by it
is this some attempt at allowing %?RESOURCE ?
FROGGS lizmat: candidates is about namespaces, .files is about resources 21:00
resources also mean binaries btw
because you query for CUR.files('bin/prove')
lizmat is that being done anywhere yet ? 21:01

FROGGS lizmat: in case you would install a binary into an inst://, yes
lizmat maybe we should spec a %?BIN then ? 21:02
FROGGS lizmat: would that help?
lizmat that would map to 'bin' in the distribution
well, we need to have the same filename mangling properties as we do on resourced and modules 21:03
*resources
FROGGS hmmm no, not really
when you create a dist that provide binary scripts, then these must be latin1, otherwise many ppl won't be able to execute them 21:04
timotimo ... binary scripts ... in latin1?
lizmat the names
FROGGS timotimo: the name you **** :P
*g* 21:05
lizmat I'm not sure that's a valid assumption or a needed one
but your point of not needing to mangle the filename is clear
timotimo ah, now i know what you mean
FROGGS lizmat: well, we can/must mangle it, sure
lizmat but then how would one know the name to type in a CLI ? 21:06
FROGGS but the authors must also keep in mind that a punycode encoded filename of a script is not ideal
timotimo i'm not sure if i asked this before, but do we have something like "give me the folder where my stuff is stored" where stuff refers to ... stuff
like icons/pictures, sound files, assets of that kind
FROGGS the author must name it sanely, that's the point
timotimo static files for a web site
stuff like that
lizmat timotimo: %?RESOURCE 21:07
FROGGS timotimo: I think so, yes
timotimo oh, that's neat
how customizable is that? can a distro (debian/ubuntu/fedora) say "the assets have to go into this folder, please" and it'll work?
lizmat S22:366 and S22:633
timotimo synopsebot!
Mouq atroxaper: I agree that L<C<boom>> should really DWIM
timotimo do you know "physicsfs"? 21:08
FROGGS timotimo: depends in what comp unit repo you install to
synopsebot Link: perlcabal.org/syn/S22.html#line_366
timotimo you can have folders and zipfiles and stuff and "layer" them over each other
lizmat timotimo: I'm still in 2 minds about that
timotimo so that one has a higher priority than the other and you can make patches and mods that way
lizmat on the one hand, I would like to see one "index" in each CURL::Installation that is read once and can be inspected at compile/run time 21:09
but that sort of works against package distributors
timotimo hmm. it's also kinda not so awesome that you have to supply the paths to all the files
lizmat so I was thinking maybe we need a CURL::RPM
that would have an "index" for each installed module 21:10
FROGGS lizmat: that's not against packagers I think... the vendor provides a CUR managed by apt for example, but I as a user install into a CUR in my home
that's how I see things
or I install into site, which is still separate from the vendor one
lizmat yes, but a vendor wants to be able to uninstalle and update 21:11
this is not about where things get installed, but *how*
FROGGS lizmat: sure, the vendor can do that with the vendor repo
lizmat and potentially create their own module for that, indeed
FROGGS lizmat: yes, the vendor can provide its own CUR class
21:11 denis_boyun_ left
lizmat still it would be nice if vendors would not have to do that and be able to use CURL::Installation 21:12
even if that is in a separate dir

FROGGS I think there is still a regression in panda due to @*INC refactorings... 21:16
lizmat please let me know what I broke
FROGGS I think there was something about the ordering of lib dirs... which is kinda tricky in panda rebootstrap process 21:17
timotimo *sigh*
FROGGS I have to dig again into that, it is hard to understand and thus hard to explain
21:17 treehug88 joined, denis_boyun left
lizmat FROGGS: also I'm still not sure whether it makes sense to have multiiple CUR objects in a single @*INC entry 21:18
it's going to make it hard to explain
FROGGS okay... at least I found the block in rakudo that triggers the perl6-p blowup
lizmat in my view the first CUR in @*INC that returns any candidate, is the one that will be loaded 21:19
FROGGS lizmat: we need a way to treat a bunch of CURs equally, so we need a way of grouping
lizmat (if there is only 1, if there are more than 1, then it will die telling it can't disambiguate)
why do we need that ?
FROGGS lizmat: then we don't need CUR at all and can switch back to the P5 way
lizmat huh? 21:20
21:20 raiph joined
lizmat could you elaborate (not necessarily now) 21:20
21:20 denis_boyun joined 21:21 rjbs left
FROGGS one major problem of the P5 way is that you get the first dist found in @INC, whether there is a *better* dist in dirs after that 21:21
so you have to "uninstall" stuff from your home or site when you want the better one from vendor or perl 21:22
lizmat no, you need to be more specific in your -use- statement
21:22 dmol joined
FROGGS and there is no way of telling: I have ten CURs, five on my disk, three in the web and two on another box, and I want to pick the *best* version from any of these 21:23
lizmat this is part of the change in thinking we need there
I don't think you need to think about having the system selecting the "best" version of a module
FROGGS lizmat: when I say: use Foo:from<lizmat>, I still get v1.1 from home when there is a v1.2 in site
[Coke] m: my Mu $j; $j = 1|2; say WHAT($j).gist
camelia rakudo-moar 25c511: OUTPUT«any((Int), (Int))␤»
lizmat as a developer, you need to think about the version of a module that you *need* 21:24
but do you *need* 1.2 in your code?
[Coke] ^^ there is a test that assumes that should return (Junction)... but I think the is is autothreading it.
lizmat if so, you should specify that with use Foo:ver(1.2)
ChoHag Developers never need the toys they say.
21:25 kurahaupo joined
lizmat I would even argue that production code should *never* contain a bare "use Foo" in the future 21:25
FROGGS lizmat: what if that is not code I maintain? what if someone releases a hotfix for Foo?
lizmat for that we have "supersedes"
FROGGS allowing to specify version ranges is to allow such scenarios 21:26
jnthn [Coke]: ooh, an LHF just in time for be getting done with $dayjob bits
[Coke] thinks we can remove the comment at the head of Test.pm now.
jnthn [Coke]: Yeah, I see what's up :)
21:26 denis_boyun left
[Coke] test is in S03-junctions/misc.t 21:26
FROGGS lizmat: I think you are forcing restrictions that will not work out
lizmat perhaps, but I don't see that as a restriction 21:27
FROGGS for one because authors release stuff and then just vanish, and also not always think about versioning
lizmat if you specify "use Foo" in production code, you really don't care which version/author you get
FROGGS I see not allowing grouping as a restriction
lizmat but grouping is only needed to resolve version conflicts, allowing the system to select the highest version 21:28
within that group
FROGGS lizmat: correct
it is not about conflicts, it is about crossing CUR boundaries, but yes 21:29
[Coke] jnthn: is the problem with the is or the .gist in Junction?
lizmat my argument is that the system shouldn't be doing this
FROGGS it is about picking the best for your search criteria, and that not locked down to sequential lookup
[Coke] (or the test? :)
lizmat but how can you guarantee that a higher version means better ?
jnthn [Coke]: Problem is with the WHAT actually
FROGGS lizmat: it is not the system, it is me allowing this by configuring groups 21:30
[Coke] dammit. :)
FROGGS lizmat: that is how versions are meant to be

FROGGS sure
21:42 bluescreen10 left
jnthn FROGGS: Ahh...that could explain it. 21:44
Well, explain the lack of inlining
Not the dependency on it 21:45
FROGGS yeah, I do not even try to understand parrot in that case anymore...
s/parrot/perl6-p/ 21:46
but yeah, I bisected all blocks that were sorted out, and now I only optimize this block (it is the 311'd block), and the others that match the criteria of your latest patch 21:47
jnthn OK. I'm looking at the optimizer and pondering
I think it should still inline that one

jnthn FROGGS: Hopefully it might allow that immediate inlining again and thus help
lue timotimo: shouldn't be too bad in my case. I think the problem is that currently I'm trying to keep 37 synopses (parsed into a simplistic structure) in memory, and by the time I reach #16 it's a bit taxing on the RAM :) 21:56
timotimo is that the only remaining block that is problematic with the inlining optimization b0rkage from recently?
lizmat lue: I have that problem all the time 21:57
timotimo ouch :)
lizmat :-)
lue It wasn't always a problem, it's just happened recently. But I need to make the process more multithreadable anyway :)

lue It would also be really nice if I could use the standard grammar's grammar rules for stuff, but that requires wrapping our heads around "slangs", and all the headaches that come along with it. 22:00
FROGGS yes, hard work that is
lizmat FROGGS: thinking about CUR some more 22:01
FROGGS jnthn: it seems to help \o/ (running spectests now)
lizmat: yeah?
lizmat maybe I should just make a separate CURL::Installation2 that I think matches the spec
FROGGS lizmat: what is wrong with the current?
lizmat it's not up to spec ? 22:02
22:02 virtualsue joined
FROGGS lizmat: is what way? 22:02
what exactly is not up to spec?
lue I'm still mulling over what an AST manipulation language would look like. :)
lizmat not doing smart matching on the authority or version
not mangling file names 22:03
FROGGS lizmat: the smart matching should be fixable without any regression
lizmat: what files do you want to mangle? 22:04
file names*
lizmat all file names
22:04 beastd left
FROGGS lizmat: we do not store files to disk, except for binaries... 22:04
and to mangle these, we'd need a way to mangle them, like by implementing punycode 22:06
punycode has the charm that it is still kinda readable and there is no loss of information 22:07
jnthn FROGGS: No spectest concerns on r-m 22:10

dalek kudo/nom: fef7933 | jnthn++ | src/Perl6/Optimizer.nqp:
p6bindsig should not prevent immediate inlining

While on MoarVM we can lower signatures and thus optimize this out, on other backends we don't, but should not lose the immediate inline optimization on those. FROGGS++ also tracked down a behavior change that resulted from disabling this optimization on r-p; it should not make a difference, but this does indeed fix the r-p breakage.
jnthn lizmat: Thanks for unfudging. 22:15
lizmat spectesting r-p
jnthn FROGGS: There you go. Thanks a lot for hunting it down sufficiently well that the patch was fairly clear to see. 22:16
FROGGS jnthn: that means we are back to about 20-30 fails, instead of 1800 :o)
timotimo \o/
Mouq lue: Is there anything major left TODO with your Pod::Walker to begin seeing if Pod::To::HTML can't be refactored to use it?
jnthn FROGGS: OK, yay. :) 22:17
FROGGS jnthn: yeah, but it still bothers me that you can provide a patch in seven minutes, when I look at it for days :o)
jnthn FROGGS: Well, debugging is always the time consuming bit for me. 22:18
in 95%+ of the cases, anyway.
FROGGS yeah
lue Mouq: no, the only thing was that I didn't want to publicize it much until I wrote a converter using it. I don't plan on doing that any time soon though, so feel free to try it out! :)
FROGGS perhaps I have a chance some day to get into the optimizer a bit... but that day does not seem near 22:19
jnthn A bunch of the Moar deopt patches were a few lines, but took O(hours) to work out
Mouq's overight bug report is my next victim :) 22:20
lue By the way, I like how "Pod Walker" sounds like a reference to some piece of sci-fi, yet I couldn't possibly guess which one (Star Wars is my best guess, for some reason) :P

Ensure lowered_param names are unique.

Not just unique per block, but per file; it seems the optimizer is now smart enough to flatten/inline and thus cause collisions.		 22:24

or was that the point ?

lizmat must have missed that when going through core modules
