zengargoyle_ and there's a bit of p6 only does one pass through the code. so things have to be one-pass decideable and it matches individual tokens often on just unicode properties so ... some things need that space around them to make it work.
09:17 xtreak left

zengargoyle_ it sorta bugs me coming from a p5 background of squishing everything togeter in one line. :) but not as much as: 09:18

parv zengargoyle_, what did you write there (i see "2 2" as superscript)? 09:20
zengargoyle_ m: say 'a'x 5
camelia aaaaa
zengargoyle_ hehe
parv: it is a superscript 22 :)
parv um ... how does that make 4? 09:21
zengargoyle_ but the first superscript two is a unicode number so it's value is just 2 and the second is an op that is **2.
rightfold parv: two to the power of two
m: say 2²²; 09:22
camelia 4194304
zengargoyle_ because it is looking for a term and a number is a term, but two numbers aren't a term (mulitiple digits are a term) and after a term it looks for an op.
m: say ½ + ½; 09:23
camelia 1
zengargoyle_ it's the same thing that makes that work. in unicode, the ½ has a numeric value of 0.5.

pminten vetmaster_: in general regarding quoting the overview docs are at docs.perl6.org/language/quoting
zengargoyle_ parv: it bugs me, but i see the logic in just having things work by looking at unicode tables. it gives us so much more usefull things in return that a little bit of suffering for the weird things it implies is worth it. 09:27

I'd like to figure out where the regex engine is working on to understand why a rule fails 09:36
parv zengargoyle_, i get 1/2 (in unicode) be 0.5; or 2² is calculated as 4. i expect superscipt not "raised" to a number to be fatal error.
pminten Grammar::Tracer/Debugger tell me which rule fails but not at what point in the input
zengargoyle_ well i think number or digits+
well i think number or digits+digits. 09:37
eek. that's the unicode distinction between 'number' and 'digit' some things like ½ have a 'number' and some like '0' are 'number' and 'digit'. you can't have a string of numbers turn into an actual number like a string of digits can. 09:39
09:40 rindolf joined
zengargoyle_ so i think p6 when looking for a term can either find one 'number' or a string lf 'digit'. 09:40
i do sorta wish it looked for 'number and not superscript' instead so it would throw an error because ²² == 4 is whack. 09:43
pminten nvm, found that a custom method in the grammar can access self.pos/target/orig, it's a bit clunky but it gets the job done
09:43 wamba left

zengargoyle_ WTF? 10:41
10:42 darutoko- left 10:43 wamba left
zengargoyle_ meh, in 22²² the 22 and the ²² are both really a series of digits. it is 22^22 (or 22**22) and scanning a text where the 22 was magically erased shouldn't through broken magic split that ²² into 2² and give you 4 instead of going WTF? 10:57
you're already breaking things in a way by making ²² which is a series of numbers into a digits and an actual Number. 10:58
but that's OK, but not noticing that that first ² of ²² is a superscript is somehow perfectly fine. 10:59
11:00 Zoffix joined
zengargoyle_ really doesn't want to see the Javascript or Perl 5 or whatever WTF presentation a few years down the road. 11:01
Zoffix zengargoyle_: but that's not what happens. ² has Unicode property No, which means it's valid to use it as a numeric literal in Perl 6. You can also follow a term with ² to indicate you want to raise to a power. 11:02
IMO people who complain about to ²² are too hung up on looks and so have to use phrases like "magically erased" to justify their disdain
masak zengargoyle_: there are surprising aspects of having `-x**y` mean `-(x**y)`, and there are surprising aspects of having it mean `(-x)**y`
zengargoyle_ why can the ²² be a number 22 and not only the No ² plus a second No ² 11:03
Zoffix As for −1² being −1... that's just rules of basic mathematics. The power has tighter precedence than negation
zengargoyle_: that's a very good question! You're not allowed to chain two No characters, because, well, they're No, not Nd chars.
zengargoyle_ ah, conceed the -1 thing. :)
Zoffix As for "WAT" and "WTF" JavaScript presentations... they're just entertainment for the ignorant. 11:04
zengargoyle_ but you do chain them in the exponent part or it would be ((22)**2)**2)
11:04 aborazmeh joined, aborazmeh left, aborazmeh joined
zengargoyle_ because those superscript things aren't digits. 11:04
Zoffix zengargoyle_: sure. Because in that context it's a superscript operator, not a numeric literal 11:05
s/superscript //;
²² is a numeric literal followed by an operator 11:06
zengargoyle_ right, why would when parsing you prefer that it's a number vs not rejecting it because it's a superscript?
you can have your circled 5 is a number because it's not a superscript. 11:07
you can have your digitizing superscripts as power ops because they are op.
why would you accept a superscript as a regular number?
Zoffix zengargoyle_: because of context. It's a term -> op -> term -> op chain in Perl 6 and in that context it expects a term, and it gets one (the No numeric literal), next it expects an op, and it gets one (the ² power operator) 11:08
zengargoyle_: because it's a No character. And we accept all No characters.
zengargoyle_ i get the parsing argument. just don't agree. :)
Zoffix Why?
11:08 mr-foobar left, Cabanossi left
zengargoyle_ because superscript trumps No 11:09
masak in Python 3, `-3 ** 2` gives -9. in JavaScript/ES7, it gives 9.
Zoffix More precicely: why change rule "can use any No" to "can use any No, unless it's a superscript which is also followed by another superscript" ?
masak I consider it a tradeoff with no clear best alternative.
zengargoyle_ i would never look at a math paper and see a tiny ²² floating about and think that it could possibly be 2² == 4 11:10
Zoffix And maintain that exception in: code, docs, tests, and any mention of the feature
11:11 Cabanossi joined
zengargoyle_ and the argument for unicode is usually along the line of "you can do it how you would expect to see it" for the most part. 11:11
maybe ₂ isn't a No? 11:12
Zoffix zengargoyle_: you're equally unlikely to see ௲² and think it could possibly be 1000² = 1000000
masak most things in the intersection between Perl 6 and Unicode in the past few years have made me think of the Jeff Goldblum quote from Jurassic Park
zengargoyle_ nah, i'm fine with weird glyphs... :)
Zoffix zengargoyle_: the "I'd feel weird if I saw it in a math paper" is too subjective and vague to clearly codify as a set of rules the language works in.
masak: what's the quote? 11:13
zengargoyle_ i was wondering if a slang could turn japanese No characters into actual Numeric digit like things.
Zoffix m: say ⅟² 11:14
camelia 1
Zoffix And if you're blacklisting ²², what about ⅟²? It looks even weirder!
zengargoyle_ really, i thought it was that unicode didn't provide a property that was suitable to make the distinction. 11:15
11:15 xtreak joined
masak Zoffix: "[they] were so preoccupied with whether or not they could they didn't stop to think if they should" 11:15
11:15 lasse left
Zoffix Or 𑁒² which looks like -2 or 𑁓² which looks like an equals sign 11:15
Yeah, the ²² ticket is a clear rejection to me. 11:16
masak I've been buying into the Unicode offerings in Perl 6 *really* slowly. I do like Unicode operators, both custom and the built-in ones.
zengargoyle_ i love the plethora of quote marks. 11:17
11:17 Zoffix left
pmurias masak: Perl 6 hand over the "if they should" part to the user, it seems a corporate coding standard would trim down the language a lot 11:18
yoleaux 4 Jun 2017 20:38Z <ggoebel> pmurias: saw the recent commits regarding building js backend... what is the full set of steps now to build it from a fresh git clone github.com/rakudo/rakudo.git?
masak pmurias: aye; and that is fair enough
pmurias: in a way, that's always been Perl's way -- fiercely defend the programmer's freedom to choose 11:19
zengargoyle_ yeah, i'm not really mad or anything, just a lot of "ewwww".
masak I'd say for me the whole ²² argument above simply means that Unicode superscripts are not (and should not be) part of Perl 6's "good parts"
zengargoyle_ and it's an easy source of mockery because it's cray-cray. :P 11:20
masak like, if TheDamian wrote a "Perl 6 Best Practices", it'd say "avoid Unicode superscripts"
11:20 xtreak left, xtreak joined
zengargoyle_ i thought is was a side-effect of bits of parsing being driven by unicode consortium tables. and it was ill advised to try and work around any flaws ATM> 11:24
11:25 grumble left
masak as far as I know, it was quite deliberate. superscript parsing has to be handled separately, after all. 11:25
zengargoyle_ and maybe unicode 10 will provide the means to make it sane.
yeah, the whole number vs digit mangling seems a bit haphazard. 11:26
11:26 grumble joined
zengargoyle_ when i *got* the difference between number and digit it just made things worse that it's OK to mangle on one side of things but not on the other side of thing. 11:27
zengargoyle_ it's just an agument i've probably lost. :P 11:31
11:38 xtreak_ joined
masak I'm sorry -- I don't have a stake in this argument because I don't use Unicode superscripts 11:38
they're just not attractive or relevant to me
zengargoyle_ before bedtime, my other gripe(s) were that POD is in a compunit and you have a hard time 'perl*doc'-ing it if there's an error. 11:40
11:40 xtreak left
zengargoyle_ the code fails to compile, sorry ... no doc for you. 11:40
11:41 xtreak joined
masak I can see how that'd be frustrating, yes 11:41
zengargoyle_ but i like the #| and other cool things so.... 11:42
masak yes, there's probably a fairly strong dependency on the (correctly parsing) code, too
11:44 xtreak_ left
zengargoyle_ and just the lack of really easy installed module introspection tools ATM. i love being able to `perldoc <TAB><TAB>` and browse things. 11:44
but that's probably just a lack of TUIT's
11:47 ctilmes joined
zengargoyle_ and that POD6 doesn't quite live up to the synopsis yet, probably a low priority to implement all of the really cool stuff that was fleshed out way back when. 11:48
zengargoyle_ not sure if ShimmerFairy is still around or did some POD tweaking since last i looked. 11:50

vetmaster what is the best way to set simple strings (not regex) in grammar tokens? 20:20
moritz vetmaster: do you want to assign to a variable? or do you want to match a string literally? 20:22
Xliff vetmaster: Use quoted text for that

vetmaster could you please suggest a solution like [^abcd] in PCRE
?
<-[abcd]> ?
jnthn Yes, that
vetmaster why it does not work? 21:07

maybe there is a mistake on the line 12 21:08
but I'm not sure
21:08 ceevusee left, ceevusee joined 21:09 st_elmo left
jnthn What if 11 is token, not rule? 21:09
vetmaster is now 'token', but says Nil anyway 21:10
21:12 setty1_ left
jnthn Oh...I think it's 'cus the leading whitespace before the first element isn't matched anywhere 21:12
Yah, that's it
If TOP is <[\n\t]>* <element>+ it works 21:13
Or <?> <element>+ to let sigspace to it

how are you my ##programming friend? (:
rindolf pilne: I'm fine - having too many parameters in the equation of benchmarking freecell solver 22:01
rindolf blames it on the compiler
;-)
pilne lol, are you rewriting it in perl6? 22:02
rindolf pilne: no
pilne: i played with github.com/dropbox/lepton earlier - it was kinda slow and the space saving was not dramatic 22:04
22:05 khw left
pilne the claimed 22% is a bit optimistic you'd say? 22:06

tinita we have a problem with running prove and using PERL6LIB 23:05
is PERL6LIB supposed to work like in p5?
23:08 mr-foobar left
geekosaur sort of? I think it has to use comprepo ids though, not paths 23:09
23:11 notbenh_ joined, TEttinger left 23:12 mr-foobar joined
tinita hm. we're using prove --exec='perl6 -I...' now as a workaround 23:15
geekosaur: what's a comprepo?
23:16 raschipi joined
timotimo comprepo embodies the fact that stuff in perl6 doesn't have to come from files on disk 23:17
i used to have a gist open that let you use modules directly off of github via http requests 23:18
like, you'd just use blah:from<github:username/repo> or something like that
gist.github.com/ugexe/23026e421b6b3a9c697b - what do you know, there it is!
actually, that might not be it
geekosaur sorry, was trying to find docs for it and it sent me to S11 which says nothing about how you specify them in include paths :/ 23:19
23:20 skids joined
timotimo actually the docs say you just put a list of paths into PERL6LIB 23:21
23:22 mcmillhj joined
geekosaur interesting, I thought it had to be something like inst:/path, inst:., ... 23:22
timotimo docs.perl6.org/language/modules#compunit_use - this could well be out of date; the "the future of the ecosystem" part just got made semi-outdated recently
geekosaur or rather, inst for something in a CUR and various other types for raw paths etc. 23:23
pilne how much will i hate myself if i try to get moarvm running on windows8 and window10? as well as os-x?

pilne without being able to touch said boxes, with only instructions given to someone who is relatively computer savvy. 23:23
raschipi depends on how much booze you have 23:25
pilne said computer savvy person does work at a local microbrewery 23:26
raschipi and if you are a sucker for punishment
pilne no, i'm far more of a sadist than a masochist
k, that guts that idea
timotimo well, you can actually install rakudo star from a .msi
23:26 mcmillhj left
raschipi why do they need it for? 23:27
pilne i'm still not convinced of the answer i got in programming that c++ would be my best option to make a basic inventory solution that runs on those....
raschipi Yeah, I was just kidding, there's an easy-to-use installer
pilne i.... volunteerd to make an inventory system for my girlfriend's employer.
timotimo don't forget you won't be done after you're done "building" it ;)
pilne oh, i know, but if it helps her bring less work back home... i'm kinda ok with it. 23:28
raschipi Are you sure doing from scratch is a good isea? 23:29
pilne it's not going to be real-time, it will be running at two locations, and they only need to be "sync'd" once a day.
no, but it seems to be the only option i could think of off the top of my head that wouldn't involve any initial cost for them
other than a case of beer 23:30
timotimo if syncing is just a one-way copy, that's fine
if you need to take into account changes from two sources .. have fun :)
raschipi There are open-source options available, get something you just need to customize for their needs.
pilne i figured i'd have a master copy of the inventory, that both locations would update to at closing time, and in the morning, each would get a fresh copy.
23:31 sftp left
pilne rasch: ty, i'll google harder (: 23:31
timotimo oh, if each location just changes "its own" data, and there's like an aggregate over both locations, that'll be doable
raschipi Of course every ERP solution needs a bit of business logic programming, but no need to do it from sscratch 23:33
pilne yeah, there might be a 3rd location in the next year, but that's still only about a 10% chance at this time.
for someone not on the books, i know a lot about the books, granted, she knows a lot about the morning shift at UPS too for never having been on payroll lol.

why would chdir "recognize" -?
Skarsnik and hello ^^
timotimo yo snik
how have you been?
Skarsnik fine, doing other stuff, like freaking snes romhacking related stuff :( 23:52
raschipi Try to do it in the shell, the chdir program goes back to the last directory.
Not a program, the shell itself does that.
timotimo why would you frown at snes romhacking?
ah. yeah, it's quite unlikely that we'd support that 23:53
Skarsnik well lot of low level and weird stuff
It's just it can be very time consuming when you are trying to figure the code of some games 23:54
timotimo ah
wanna share anything? :)
23:55 wamba left
Skarsnik and even with most of the dissambly, thing can still be very confusing. Like how Zelda 3 store map data 23:55
timotimo yeah, i can't imagine it'd be easy all the time :)
23:56 Actualeyes joined 23:57 mcmillhj joined
Skarsnik One of the worse thing is the mentality of lot/most romhacker. They hide their work because "People will steal my work" 23:57
But anyway, it's kinda late. time to sleep x) 23:58
timotimo have a good one!
pilne i read something somewhere a long while ago about hacking ff7's rom... they did some wacky ass shit
Skarsnik well at least the playstation does not have a CPU with only one accumulator 23:59
