putter @tell fglock Sorry for getting back so late. And that it was still scary. ;) I'll do more cleanup, just for practice. Thanks for motivating it! :) Hmm... why do the new greedy_{plus,star} sketches take min and max arguments? I'm puzzled. Abstractly at least, there are simply two range algorithms, greedy and non-greedy, x**{m..n} and x**{m..n}?. And six aliases: x* being x**{0..Inf}, x+ being x**{1..Inf}, x? being x**{0..1}, plus th 00:30

ajs_home yawn... still awake for some reason 03:07
Been looking over PGE/TGE... interesting stuff... still getting my head around the meaning of each of the passes. 03:08
I wonder, was it the intention that P6-in-P6-on-Parrot would use PIL or a TGE-based PAST/POST? 03:10

[particle] ajs: we're working towards a common past :) 03:44
think of parse trees and post as tree-ified representations of high-level language source and virtual machine opcodes, respectively 03:45
past is the boundary layer seperating them.
it is a representation that is both language and vm neutral
04:06 SubStack joined
jdv79 what is PIL in that world then? 04:36
there's too many "representations" 04:37
audreyt PAST and POST is basically the Parrot's counterpart to Pugs's PIL and PIR trees 04:49

TreyHarris is svnbot gone for good? 05:06
audreyt no... restarting it now 05:19
pasting my most recent changelog :)
* Unicode support for the embedded Perl5 bridge. (This takes effect iff
the embedded Perl supports SvUTF8_on, typically Perl 5.8+.)
- Source code in eval('...', :lang<perl5>) can now contain non-ASCII
characters; they are treated as if "use utf8;" is in effect.
- Str objects passing from Pugs land into Perl 5 are always turned
into SvUTF8_on unicode strings. 05:20
- Strings passed from Perl 5 to Pugs land are always converted into
Unicode Str objects for now; this may be relaxed once we have a
native Buf type in Pugs land.
- Both named and unnamed regexes now assumes Unicode semantics.
* Use New()/Safefree() instead of malloc()/free() in p5embed APIs.
* Use svpvn and CStringLen instead of svpv and CString, so strings with
embedded nulls can be safely passed either way.
* In non-embedded builds, call binmode(STDIN, ':utf8') only on
Perl 5.7 or later.

ddrescue would be *very* useful
skew said 4h 29m 14s ago: I've typeset some typing rules, and put a BSD license on the code. www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~brandon/index.html
audreyt @tell putter the deletion was quasi-intentional; those were disabled parts of tests from Perl6::Rules (entirely disabled for a long time now) and of dubious applicability; if you'd like to reanimate and review them that'd be cool! 11:00

audreyt no prob at all, though I prefer uppercase "MIT" as it's abbrev 12:05

ACK
audreyt no prob at all, surprised it didn't do that already; very surprised 12:06
gaal does serverside cpan know what to do with MIT as license?
1.03 doesn't. will fix.

PAUSE doesn't care either way
gaal so it appears verbatim?

evalbot_r13710 ["foo", "foo", "foo", "foo", "foo"] 13:17
Juerd I think xx in list context should croak.
Ehhh 13:18
I think xx in ITEM context should croak.
xx is list repetition. It makes no sense in non-list context. If someone uses xx in non-list context, they could be meaning one of three things:
1. They really wanted to use x, but don't understand the difference yet. If they only stringify the array, they will find that somehow the repetition operator added whitespace. 13:19
2. They needed to use an @array, not a $string, but don't understand the difference yet. They won't find out the difference :)
3. They really did want an array. In this case, I think they needed to be explicit about it, and use []. 13:20
To summarize:
* \W operators should not create arrays in item context. If there's no good item context behaviour, croak. 13:21
(And this includes comma...) 13:22

I mean, the answer is WHAT.

please commit./fix away
cdpruden will try :)
audreyt I've been working from bottom of smoke matrix up, and ext/ is so far neglected
cdpruden is that in a synopsis yet?
audreyt S12 16:01
WHAT/WHICH/WHO/WHERE/HOW are specced
cdpruden oh, guess that would make sense.... have to kick the google search from feather for giving me 5 and 10 :)
audreyt and because perl6 is timeless, it doesn't have a concept of WHEN (at this time)... 16:03
Juerd WHEN could be $^T at creation. But that's a terrible waste of bytes.
rodi and because nobody else thought it was funny, WHENCE and WHITHER haven't gained any steam...
Juerd More practically, it could be __FILE__ and __LINE__ of creation. But then, that's still a terrible waste of bytes when you're not debugging. 16:04
theorbtwo Could store them iff there's a debug flag set, but probably not worth it.
audreyt rodi: I think it's funny, but WHEREFORE takes the cake on length 16:05

lambdabot fglock: You have 3 new messages. '/msg lambdabot @messages' to read them.

TreyHarris audreyt: .WHEREFORE is the POD documentation associated with a variable 16:13
oh, that's already .WHY.... drat. 16:15
audreyt they are synonyms anyway...
so maybe .WHY is the summary as it's more brief ;) 16:16
rodi nice.
TreyHarris we need C<your> variables now, and tense (do we have indicative verbs yet?), and then we can start to work on goverment and binding theory for perl 6 :) 16:18
audreyt actually I was about to suggest "is yours"
to replace "is export" when obra asked it the other day
but it's reeally, really silly.
TreyHarris giggles
yes :)
is yours for(:DEFAULT, :MYTAG) 16:19
audreyt is DEFAULT's, is MYTAG's 16:20
TreyHarris nods
better
audreyt utter silliness, though :)
audreyt files that under the Acme:: cabinet
TreyHarris chuckles
rodi files that under having a little /too/ much fun subverting the dominant paradigm... 16:21
audreyt in other words, that belongs to the -Opun track of development... 16:22
TreyHarris I have a silly Haskell question... when you get the type of something from ghci, sometimes it uses 'a, b' and sometimes it uses 'bx, cx' as type variables. what is the difference it's articulating?
audreyt it's remembering which tyvars the original declaration used 16:23
in the typeclasses/functions/etc
otherwise serves no purpose
TreyHarris ah, ok. so if i actually declared a type and used, say, 'q', it would always display 'q'? 16:24
