irced I'm with the poster, when an Any is multplied it is used as an identity. 06:51
identity, in the language of mathematics, means the product is the same as that to which the identity was multiplied 06:53
so nothing is loss when an undefined variable is used as an operand in an arithmetic operation 06:54
since if it is added to, you get what was added to it and if it is multiplied to you get that which was multiplied to it. and perl6 takes identify to the next level making it applicable in addition. 06:55

06:59 domidumont joined 07:00 domidumont left
irced the only snag is [*](). but given that identity is "one" it makes sense that identify * identity is ... identify :-) 07:00
or in this case, that it is 1 when used in multiplication
thus [*](1) = 1 07:01

jmerelo AlexDaniel: strangely consistent, that's Perl 6 motto
AlexDaniel very nice question indeed, very interesting behavior :) 07:38
I think it's reasonable and this is what I expected, actually 07:39
but it's interesting to see how $x behaves as different values, if you look at it that way
jmerelo AlexDaniel: and this is the issue you created a year ago: github.com/perl6/doc/issues/2129 07:40

irced jmerelo: and not an issue so much as a nominal feature. thanks for sharing the stackoverflow question. 08:13

jmerelo irced: it's a documentation issue, something that should be documented. 08:16
irced jmerelo: yeah, the poster did not note that an error does in fact occur when not using *= += etc, as in $x where $x is Any + 3 gives use of uninitialized value 08:17

13:56 pamplemousse joined
sena_kun timotimo, can't argue with misunderstanding part, though, I see fake news of "Perl 6 is dead" sort pretty often, now I might be seeing things. :S 13:57
antoniogamiz handle urls in perl6 is tough 14:00
sena_kun antoniogamiz, what part is confusing? 14:03
antoniogamiz make them valid ones 14:04
(I'm trying to fix url in the new doc system)
sena_kun antoniogamiz, this is not very specific. :) if there is some issue you tinker on, maybe we can help? 14:05
antoniogamiz ah no, I just told it idk..
ugexe you just puny-encode it. nothing difficult or confusing 14:06
antoniogamiz that does not work with / ^ %
ugexe wouldnt you just percent encode them? 14:07
antoniogamiz If I do that, would it be converted to a valid unix path? 14:08
sena_kun ^ is %5E, % is %25, / is %2F 14:09
www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp
antoniogamiz but then I would have to encode % too
sena_kun % is %25 14:10
ugexe you don't reencode the percent symbol of the percent encoded entities
antoniogamiz I mean. there's path containing ^ % /
if I encode them, and write them to that path
sena_kun so if you have "/foo/bar/%", you encode it as "/foo/bar/%25" and that's all
antoniogamiz when you type %25 in the browser, it does not work
ugexe technically it should 14:11
antoniogamiz it doesnt, or at least not in my case
sena_kun I have a feeling that browser is too user-friendly and will convert `%` for you
just as it encodes emoji you can type into address bar into something normal
also, does it work in url on page? 14:12
antoniogamiz ?
sena_kun if you have a page that is served on path with %25, and you have another page that contains <a href="...%25">foo</a>, then you open up this second page, can you go to the first one? 14:13
14:14 ravenousmoose joined
antoniogamiz ah I think not 14:14
14:14 pamplemousse left
sena_kun did you try it or? 14:15

antoniogamiz and fff%5E did not work 14:16
so I encode % too => fff%255E 14:17
ugexe thats a security flaw

ugexe: it is? I did not know

well maybe i misunderstood "so I encode % too => fff%255E" 14:21
antoniogamiz oh I didn't have any idea, thanks for th einfo
ugexe basically if you have a percent encoded entity like %25 you must be sure you never double decode it into something like %2525 14:22
antoniogamiz got it :D

is called (elem)? or have another name?

Confused

colon pair
antoniogamiz i thought it was like in python
tobs antoniogamiz: you have to rotate the :
m: [1,2,3][0..*-1] 14:55
camelia ( no output )
tobs m: [1,2,3][0..*-1].say
camelia (1 2 3)
antoniogamiz :oo
it makes sense x'd
ty
tobs not sure what 0:-1 would do in python, maybe it would omit the last element? Note that it doesn't here. 14:56
lucasb >>> [1,2,3][0:-1] #=> [1, 2]
antoniogamiz tobs: the same that .. 14:57
sena_kun m: [1,2,3][0..*-2].say; 15:00
camelia (1 2)
sena_kun the reason is that `*` gives you length, and you have to return index, so lenth is 3 and -1 is 2, so indexes are 0,1,2 and you get last element
so you need to actually get index before last one, hence -2, because first -1 is a shift because indexes are starting from zero, when length is not, and the second one is because you want an element that is before last 15:02
tobs fwiw, there is a problem solving ticket about indexing with ranges and whatevercodes as it's not always clear what does (or even *is*) what in a subscript: github.com/perl6/problem-solving/issues/50 15:03

vrurg opitzs: You have a chance for it to work if you set it in BEGIN before using the module. 17:31
It won't work on macOS anyway though. 17:32

chloekek p6: use NativeCall; sub getenv(Str:D $k --> Str) is native {*}; %*ENV<FOO> = 'foo'; say getenv('FOO')
camelia (Str)
chloekek Setting on %*ENV doesn't update the environment of the process.
%*ENV is read by e.g. run, but perhaps not by the dynamic linker? 17:36
vrurg opitzs: welcome! 17:38
opitzs chloekek: It works in the begin block, so it cant be simply that the dynamic linker doesn't work with it. As this is my first perl6 script, I can't comment. Thank you! 17:39

ugexe a module probably does something like `is native(%*ENV<foo>)`. by using BEGIN you force the ENV to be set before the signature is reached 17:41
vrurg But the linker perhaps considers %*ENV. I don't know.
chloekek wrote some Perl 5 today. Wasn't a bad experience, but "weird" :D 17:42
Had used Perl 5 a lot until a few years ago.

timotimo i wonder if zef should get support for the perl6-all-modules repo :) 18:47
OTOH, you could literally just cd in there and do the installing
though not automatically finding the dependencies in there
moritz fwiw I've tried setting up the updater for perl6-all-modules on a different machine, and failed so far 18:49
it seems that git-subrepo now behaves differently, or something 18:50
El_Che git-subrepo has the tendance of exploting sooner or later 18:51
for me 18:52
(not in general)

ugexe vrurg: i don't see why it should work. does `git clone [email@hidden.address] work? 19:32
vrurg ugexe: it does. 19:33
ugexe it doesnt for me
i dont have their ssh key
vrurg Perhaps because I have git configured for github account. 19:34
ugexe i mean my git is configured to work with e.g. github 19:37
anywho in the config under the git plugin you can change scheme (I think its set to https?). maybe it is not working right for the [email@hidden.address] format 19:39
github.com/ugexe/zef/blob/e7389737...#L144-L147
the intention is so user can override ssh based urls with https 19:40
notably the `:` after the .com
timotimo .o( zef could also have Log::Timeline support ) 19:45
ugexe most of zef output goes through a "logger", and the logger prints it to the screen 19:46
github.com/ugexe/zef/blob/e7389737...m6#L24-L28 19:47
timotimo the thing about Log::Timeline is that there's not only events, but also "tasks", and all those will "nest"
ah, there's phase => START, and i suppose a corresponding phase => FINISH? 19:48
ugexe enum PHASE is export <BEFORE START LIVE STOP AFTER>;
19:49 reach_satori joined
timotimo Log::Timeline theoretically wants classes to be created for the different things that can "happen" 19:49
ugexe we do not know what all the tasks are before we start 19:50
timotimo right 19:51
ugexe if zef implemented Log::Timeline it would also essentially obsolete that module 19:52
timotimo the logger module you mean?
ugexe whatever it does period
since its not quite the thing that can be implemented with like a plugin
timotimo it's very cross-cutting
it doesn't have to be the only logger, of course 19:53
ugexe right but what im getting at is zef will never `use Some::External::Module` unless it can be made to work like a plugin. So for zef to implement Log::Timeline is to essentially EOL Log::Timeline because everyone has zef if they want to install Log::Timeline so why bother 19:54
timotimo haha
i see
ugexe along those lines i've pondered on zef generating makefiles which is requires something similar 19:56
timotimo makefiles that would do what? 19:57
to do building of perl6 modules based on Build.pm and the stuff in the meta json?
so a little bit like ufo, but a whole lot more stuff?
ugexe fetch, extract, install, everything
pretty much everything zef does can be broken down into simple shell commands
except for determining the dependency graph 19:58
timotimo interesting, so when such a makefile is spat out, you don't need zef any more?
ugexe yeah
i'm not even sure how useful that will ultimately prove. but it seemed like a fun idea 20:00
timotimo i definitely see why it'd be interesting i think
ugexe SmokeMachine: not quite. fields without entries are wrong 20:01

ugexe not blank string
blank string would be :auth<> ala Test:auth<> and nobody does that 20:03
timotimo we should try putting a module with that in the ecosystem to see if anything breaks 20:04
ugexe you *can* have a module with a blank string as auth
timotimo right
ugexe m: use Test:auth(""); # but it must exist

timotimo right 20:05
ugexe Could not find Test:auth<> -- is a bit disengenious tho
m: use Test:auth<>
camelia Potential difficulties:
Pair with <> really means an empty list, not null string; use :auth('') to represent the null string,
or :auth() to represent the empty list more accurately

masak do people use `temp` a lot? I feel it's a bit underused, especially with dynamic variables 20:11
(I'm building a recursive thing that keeps $*indent, and `temp` goes very well with that)

ugexe from what i remember it was pretty buggy 20:38
when i used it circa 4 years ago
i was wanting to use a pattern like `use Test; my $foo = ...; subtest "1" { ... }; subtest "2" { temp $foo = ...; ... };` 20:42
20:47 rindolf left
masak seems to work fine with my use cases, at least 20:55
ugexe: if you find something that's still unambiguously buggy, I'd be interested to know about it
I still haven't found a good, concrete use of `let`. I'm interested to be told how to use it in practice.
