Cirno Sorry for my bad english. In Lisp, many diverse language constructs are reached through macros at the language level. I would like to know if it was done the same in perl6. 04:46
Itaipu Cirno: I think macro are more for compiled languages, not interpreted ones, where the runtime does more magic :) 04:49
Cirno thx 04:55
One more question. Is it possible to overload standard operators and create your own syntax based on macros?

holyghost I've made some List classes in psp-gcc (the objective-c part), they're on Xliff's server in a moment 05:18
There's no gnustep, Foundation or libobjc's AFAIK in gcc objective-c 05:19
IIRC there's libobjc2 05:20
It's always nice to have some custom list classes for lisp/scheme hackers 05:26
I also made one in plain C, which is enormously fast 05:37

pmurias why does $obj.foo($positiona) :named_argument work? 12:41
jnthn adverbs 12:43
They parse as infixes then are shoved onto...whatever is close to hand and doesn't run away quick enough
So presumably the method call in this case :) 12:44
It's the same thing going on with @foo[$x]:delete or so

moritz maybe it should've been simply @a.delete($idx) 14:10

Altreus :\ i accidentally /quit instead of /disco 14:17
now I lost all my channels
masak Altreus: I'm throwing rocks in my glass house here, but you should have a mechanism or something for persisting your channels, man. 14:18
Altreus I do 14:19
14:19 john_parr left
masak well, use it! 14:19
Altreus It's in .weechat/irc.conf
It doesn't sort of update itself
:(
so I have to remember that I want a channel permanently
masak there's something a little autopunny about all this
14:19 john_parr joined
masak "this mechanism will help you remember your channels! if you remember to add them." (d'oh!) 14:20
timotimo don't forget to /save
masak argh
timotimo i think there's something that saves the actual window layout, too
Altreus that saves the config but only the things you've /set
it doesn't add your current channels as the reload-this-when-you-screw-up list 14:21

batmanaod[m] Hi! When I last looked into Perl 6, Rakudo didn't yet completely implement the "Christmas" spec; but now, the Perl 6 and Rakudo home pages don't seem to highlight any missing features, so is it safe to assume that Rakudo is generally considered complete and up-to-date, and that anything described in the Perl 6 docs should be expected to work in Rakudo? 16:37
El_Che batmanaod[m]: I would say, expect things to work except if documented otherwise 16:38
timotimo i'd say that's accurate
16:38 ambs_ left, ambs joined, reach_satori joined 16:39 reach_satori left
Altreus well 16:39
I missed the word "except"
and I thought we were being facetious 16:40
timotimo you mean expect?
Altreus no
timotimo or in el_che's text?
Altreus :D
yeah
timotimo ah
Altreus expect things to work if documented otherwise
documentation 101
timotimo that sounds like a fun project to build
a perl6 version that does as much as possible different from what is documented

I just came back from a conference 17:53

jmerelo Hi, Tom
Just talked to antoniogamiz, he's started classes and also moved to a new apartment... without internet. 18:03
I haven't had a lot of time to check your PRs and issues in documentable either, just came back from Vienna, and busy with the beginning of classes here
tbrowder i’m having success with an upcoming PR to improve Documentable (but consider a bit betaish, will need to discuss some things). 18:04
jmerelo It will get better in a week or two, I expect.

Demos[m] so I asked a while ago if I could write new representations in perl6 ... and the answer is no. I was wondering if I can do it if I'm willing to depend on moar internals 18:18
but still in perl6 instead of nqp
and if I need to write it in nqp can it live anywhere or does it require explicit registration in moarvm
* so I asked a while ago if I could write new representations in perl6 ... and the answer is no. I was wondering if I can do it if I'm willing to depend on moar internals

timotimo representations are written in C, not in nqp
moar allows new representations to be registered, and the extension library feature still exists, even though we want to get rid of it 18:19
Demos[m] are those different features? 18:20
also I take it src/6model/reps is where to look
timotimo yeah, those are the existing reprs
i think src/6model/reprs.h has the function that allows a new repr to be registered 18:21
Demos[m] right, so is that function the "extension library" feature?
timotimo no, that is used by passing a commandline argument to "moar" 18:24
can't find it right now 18:25

AlexDaniel Elronnd: yeah, but without JIT iirc
timotimo you'll just not have jit
Elronnd cool
timotimo but you will have spesh
AlexDaniel it's definitely usable just not blazing fast
Elronnd what's the speed like without jit?
timotimo which is a part of what other VMs would call jit
Elronnd what's spesh?
timotimo dynamic specializer
Elronnd ahh
timotimo compare running your program vs MVM_JIT_DISABLE=1 in the env
Elronnd that's like, if I have &sub($x), generating a specialized version of &sub that takes just Ints if I call it with Ints a lot? 20:10
20:10 pmurias joined
timotimo yeah 20:10
and potentially inlining &sub into the frame that calls &sub
