rindolf Su-Shee: someone quoted Reddit about perl6.org on #perlcafe 08:21
Su-Shee rindolf: the manly gay feminine part? ;)
rindolf Su-Shee: hmm... it was said by EvanCarroll 08:22
carlin we should make camelia flash different colours, that'd give them something to complain about ;)
rindolf www.reddit.com/r/programming/commen...rg/c0cjjil - this one.
Su-Shee I can add blink tags and marquees. ;)
rindolf Su-Shee: does perl6.org has some nifty :hover effects? 08:23
Nothing too intrusive just background colour change, etc.
Su-Shee rindolf: pugs main developer is transgender, so a little gay vibe seems perfectly reasonable to me. (that comment I really like.)

carlin -4 points 08:24

rindolf Su-Shee: I once read a fortune cookie that said "I'm a Lesbian born in a man's body." 08:27
carlin Hi sjohnson :)
Su-Shee rindolf: I have border-radius for both. 08:28
rindolf Su-Shee: ah.
Su-Shee: perl-begin.org/temp/ - Alan Haggai worked on that with my input.
Stretchy. 08:29
carlin the css validator doesn't like browser-specific border radii :(
rindolf Fluid.
Munctional!
carlin: yes, it's kinda inane.
Su-Shee carlin: yes. it's upcoming css3 which is supported by all major relatively recent browsers and will change to "border-radius" then. but it's not valid css2.x
carlin: the next years will be somewhat fuzzy because all browsers are nowadays very much faster with implementing standards than the w3c actually releasing them. 08:30

Su-Shee carlin: I have a new version in the making anyway...
carlin Oh, nice 08:42
Su-Shee carlin: and many male techies will never like anything remotely "cute" or brightly colored..
carlin Is their a preview of the new live anywhere?
Su-Shee carlin: alway at sushee.no-ip.org/p6p/ 08:43
carlin: but it's really pre-pre-pre (until I've finished my coffee :)
carlin have a link saying "if you are a male techie click here" which changes the website to a black background with white monospace text 08:44
that'll make everyone happy

Su-Shee cognominal: of course they are. ask what everyone besides israel thinks about light blue in the middle east. ;)
rindolf Su-Shee: I suggest making the colours more pastelly.
Su-Shee: and the fonts of the headers larger. 08:51
Su-Shee rindolf: I've tried. Rejected by commitee :)
rindolf Su-Shee: and perhaps not phrase them as questions.
But rather "Download"

carlin also need a version for entomophobiacs 08:59
Su-Shee someone could do me the favor and start coding a little sleek cms in perl 6. ;) 09:01
carlin What, actually do work? But it's so much easier to just criticise on IRC
Su-Shee well if we're actually offering a central site for everyone to go to about everything perl 6 related, this is going to be very fast a rather large thing.. 09:03
rindolf Su-Shee: maybe code an off-line CMS.
Su-Shee: or convert Latemp to p6.
Su-Shee rindolf: I can manage with pure html and vi for a rather long time, so no hurry. but "a p6 cms" is something on the top 10 killer app list anyway. 09:05
rindolf Su-Shee: ah.
Su-Shee (blog engine, cms, wiki, forum, microblogging engine, web framework..)
rindolf Su-Shee: how do you maintain a navigation menu across pages?
Su-Shee rindolf: good question, next question. ;) 09:08
rindolf Su-Shee: in Latemp, it's a no-brainer.
Su-Shee: I never maintain a site as raw HTML. 09:09
I always use Latemp or something.
TT2 is also nice.
nothingmuch: I saw your comment on my &zip blog post.
Su-Shee rindolf: I even don't know latemp. 09:10
rindolf Su-Shee: then learn - web-cpan.berlios.de/latemp/
Su-Shee: though it has a steep learning curve. 09:12
Su-Shee: I love how all the borders on that page are perfectly aligned.
I used pt offsets.

rindolf sjohnson: that it's not ASCII.
sjohnson: Frenglish is in English ; Franglais is in French.
There's also Engrew.
Su-Shee ah. we have denglish. ;) 10:34
rindolf Hebrew with English paradigms.
Su-Shee: Denmark English?
Or deautch English?
Su-Shee de(utsch) english
rindolf There used to be something called Penglish (pinglish) - Palestinian English.
Su-Shee: ah.
huf dont all programmers speak in a $local_lang/English mix?
rindolf There's also Chinglish and Engrish. 10:35
They are really off.
Su-Shee huf: here, the newspapers are constantly complaining about the imported english words.. ;)
huf Su-Shee: oh yeah, that's also constant ;) 10:36
funny how they never complain about all the latin and german and french and .... words
Su-Shee huf: yeah. 200 years ago they complained about the massive invasion of french words :))
rindolf en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franglais
huf Su-Shee: well, what can you do with people who think a language is a static structure... 10:37
Su-Shee what's really nasty is the more I chat in english and read documentation in english, the more I start to mix german and english while actually speaking, because I don't know certain terms in german.
rindolf Su-Shee: ah.
huf Su-Shee: and that is the correct approach imho
rindolf Su-Shee: it happens to me with Hebrew too.
huf i *really* hate translating technical terms, which means that when we talk code, large parts of the sentence are in badly-pronounced english :)
rindolf Su-Shee: I think most Israelis I know make many grammatical/etc. Hebrew mistakes.
And some even Spelling. 10:38
Su-Shee turkish girls here have perfected the language mix. for the sake of the communication flow, they use arabic, turkish and german in a rapid flow of speech.
rindolf Though spelling modern Hebrew is difficult.
And such mistakes were found in archaelogical excavations.
Su-Shee huf: me too. and microelectronics for example I plainly don't know in german anymore.
rindolf Su-Shee: doesn't most of the Turkish vocab come from Arabic? 10:39
Su-Shee rindolf: no. totally different language family. but of course there's a large arabic corpus.
huf my belief is that computers should be in english. your data could (but shouldnt, if at all possible) be in some weird provincial language you happend to grow up with, but the UI/code/docs/jargon should always be english.
Su-Shee huf: I hear you. 10:40
rindolf Su-Shee: yes, that's what I meant.
Su-Shee: vocabulary.
Su-Shee: not the grammar/syntax/etc.
I hate localised error messages.
Su-Shee OHYES!
me too!
rindolf They make reading many Google posts difficult.
I mean stuff you find while STFWing. 10:41
huf of course, we dont find it odd that a computer requires a special language to interact with :)
Su-Shee rindolf: I'm the one who's called by non-techie friends in the evening and ask to give a dignose based on those messages. ;)
huf but how to force this on the public? 10:42
rindolf Su-Shee: heh.
M_o_C Another disadvantage is that when googling for a solution you'll only get posts containing the localised error message...
Su-Shee huf: luckily, many people adopt the english-based internet/tech slang.
huf Su-Shee: i just claim very loudly that i dont understand hungarian error messages, whenever the subject comes up, so they know i wont/cant help :)
Su-Shee M_o_C: and on top of all that a distribution-specific solution if it's linux. 10:43
huf: I look sad and say "oh, gee, I'm so sorry, but I don't have a mac (windows) - I really have no idea.."
huf Su-Shee: yeah, that's also a handy trick :)
"get out of fixing-everyone's-boxen free card" 10:44
Su-Shee huf: especially if those are people which usally don't even have the patience to even listen to what I'm telling them...
huf Su-Shee: yeah, because "they dont understand it" 10:45
as if it required fucking magic...
10:45 pmurias joined
huf i need a wizzard hat. 10:45
carlin nope, all you need is a flowchart
Su-Shee huf: I usally have a nice killer argument.. because I'm also no technician and I also didn't grow up with computers. ;)
carlin xkcd.org/627/
huf rindolf: is the spelling still hard in hebrew if you use the latin letters? 10:46
rindolf huf: well...
huf Su-Shee: i got my own computer at age 16. i'm heavily handicapped ;)
rindolf huf: most people don't follow the right transliteration.
Like they use k instead of "q".
huf: and some letters in Hebrew don't have a good transliteration.
M_o_C Meh, github http downloads are darn slow today...
huf rindolf: oh? 10:47
carlin github is always slow :(
rindolf huf: for example it's Al-Quran - not Al-Kuran.
huf: or Qur'an rather.
huf: Al-Qadim too.
huf: And it's not kwa.
10:48 abra joined
rindolf That was the original use of the word in the Phoenician alphabet. 10:48
A "q" sound.
huf hmm, sounds are so hard to talk about on irc...
rindolf huf: yes. 10:51
huf: think is - many Hebrew speakers say "k" instead of "q" in everyday speech.
huf so you have dialects
rindolf huf: but still, some Israeli arabs told me that learning to read and write Hebrew was much easier for them than learning Written Arabic. 10:52
Su-Shee
.oO(says the fellow with the nastily inflected language.. ;)
huf Su-Shee: eh?
rindolf huf: we have some dialects and variations.
Su-Shee huf: aren't you hungarian? ;)
huf yeah, but how do dialects enter into this :)
we have a few but they're very minor 10:53
nothing like german or english has
rindolf huf: but Hebrew doesn't have a diglossia yet.
huf: though sometimes I'm flabbergasted by the broken Hebrew that some people have. 10:54
huf Su-Shee: mostly our dialects center around slight differences in vowel pronuniciation plus how they dealt with the loss of a vowel sound (the 'e' in men)
rindolf: s/hebrew/$local_language/ and yeah, i agree ;)
Su-Shee huf: I liked hungarian. if you really just go with it, it's not even illogic. 10:55
rindolf huf: I'm not talking about slang. I like a lot of slang.
huf: but I'm talking about bad grammar.
huf hmm... is that because hebrew is so recently resurrected? 10:56
or is that just general ignorance
Su-Shee here, bad grammar is a question of "class" and education... 10:57
huf same
and it only comes out in complex sentences. everyone can perform simple ones correctly. 10:58
Su-Shee huf: here it's certain very specific constructions in simple sentences
huf: which you either get right or not and that's determined by your environment. 10:59
huf well, not really. no matter what stratum of society you grew up in, you're constantly exposed to the correct grammar. there's no excuse for not knowing that 11:00
Su-Shee huf: you can avoid pretty well to be exposed to good newspapers or news and if you end up only with really bad reality shows on tv... 11:01
rindolf I think that the misunderstanding of Latin by the vulgars has made the grammar of Romance languages.
huf rindolf: i dont thin the people of rome spoke latin back in the day 11:02
it was probably a vulgar dialect ;)
M_o_C Su-Shee: Even newspapers contain more errors than one thinks they should... 11:03
Su-Shee huf: sure they did - many of them badly of course. there's an entire corpus of people's latin.
M_o_C: at least they get some nasty grammar fuckups right :)
huf Su-Shee: wel yes, but even today latin and italian are mutually intelligible, so... latin can be said to be a literary form of italian :) 11:04
rindolf huf: yes, they evolved from Vulgar Latin.
pmurias ruoso: hi 11:05
Su-Shee well yes and no. as latin was the main written language in entire europe up until.. leibniz I think, there's the line of written latin and the change of people actually speaking and evolving with latin.
huf Su-Shee: but that latin is not the same as the latin romans spoke ;) not exactly, anyway
Su-Shee recommends the tv series "ROME" :) 11:06
quote: "mother, it was just an orgy.." :)
huf they live in esher? 11:07
rindolf Su-Shee: I heard it was awful.
Su-Shee rindolf: it was totally brilliant, I _loved_ it.
rindolf Su-Shee: ah.
Su-Shee rindolf: I really loved my ass off, they had the exact right amount of disrespect for "uuuh ahhh culture! old languages! latin!" ;) 11:09
laughed of course. ;)
rindolf: marcus antonius and cleopatra totally stoned... watch it. :) 11:14
rindolf Su-Shee: Cleopatra was a bitch, BTW.
She was one of the most Evil women in history , IMO.
Su-Shee rindolf: well what do you expect from an imperial ruler and politician? ;) 11:15
rindolf Su-Shee: I guess.
Though some rulers were noble.
Su-Shee: Cleopatra was also Macedonian in origin. 11:16
She just married the the king Ptolmey of Egypt. 11:17
Ptolmey (sp?)
Ptolemy 11:18
Modern Hebrew speakers can understand a large part of the Bible. 11:20
Not all the words there.
But most of them.
Even though the grammar there is very different. 11:21
for example you said "And he will go" for "he went"
Or "and he went" for "he will go"
And it's Verb ; Subject ; Object

rindolf I think gtk+ tends to be kinda verbose.

rindolf Su-Shee: and on Mandriva/Debian/etc. I dislike polluting the main parition wiith installed files.
Su-Shee: then why don't you use a package manager to install the deps?
Su-Shee I don't pollute anything, I'm installing another gtk version into somewhere else for some experimental stuff. 15:14
rindolf Su-Shee: I see.
Su-Shee: then why don't you build it against the glib/gobject/etc of /usr?
Su-Shee rindolf: because I need them differently and elsewhere for a specific build enviroment...
rindolf Su-Shee: ah.
Did you write scripts for that?
Su-Shee not yet, it's the first build up to actually see what I really _have_ to package and script later. 15:15

moritz_ colomon: that you can't add multis? 19:34
colomon Yes. Does a Null PMC.
moritz_ that should be easily fixed by moving it to the setting 19:35
care to write a patch for that?
ouch
abs is a prefix ops right now
colomon I don't know where to move it from?
I wondered about that! 19:36
moritz_ wonders if that's correct
colomon TimToady said something about sin being an operator, and I extended it in my head....
I'm just now at the stage of messing around with the setting, I haven't peaked in any of the other Rakudo internals. 19:37
pmichaud many of Rakudo's builtins need to be moved into the setting 19:38
abs is actually prefix:<abs>
colomon Does that imply if you overload it, it also needs to be a prefix? 19:39
moritz_ where is that specced?
pmichaud STD.pm:3762
moritz_ ok
pmichaud token prefix:abs ( --> Named_unary) { <sym> » <?before \s*> }
I'm not sure how that should reconcile with 19:40
our Num multi method abs ( Num $x: ) is export # S32-numeric
moritz_ by the prefix dispatching to the method?
pmichaud sure, we could do that
but I don't think we can/should have both prefix:abs and method abs() is export 19:41
moritz_ it's what rakudo does now anyway
src/parser/grammar-oper.pg
75:proto prefix:<abs> is precedence('o=') is subname('abs') { ... }
pmichaud yes; rakudo was just following STD.pm here
moritz_ so should I preserve that while moving abs to the setting? 19:42
pmichaud I don't know. I'm not sure how to decide which operators are prefix and which are normal "is export" (more)
for example, what about exp() and log() ?
or sin() ? 19:43
moritz_ is in favour of having them all as ordinary subs
colomon Seems to me that if any of them are, all of them are.
pmichaud the problem with "ordinary subs" is that you lose the unariness
moritz_ I know
pmichaud i.e., sin $foo + 3
so perhaps we really do need both, and the prefix just redispatch to the method/function form 19:44
I'd go for that
colomon I don't see the benefit of having them be an operator, but I think TimToady had a reason...
moritz_ that reads ambiguously for me anway
pmichaud if abs $x > 0 { ... } 19:45
colomon Wonder if this is why I've been having trouble overloading sin....
pmichaud in this case you want abs to be prefix:<abs> and not a listop
because as a listop it parses as abs($x > 0) 19:46
colomon: you cannot overload any rakudo builtin that is written in PIR
moritz_ unless maybe with inline PIR 19:47
colomon Ah, and sin still is?
pmichaud at present we can only overload things that are in the setting, or have been specially written to be reblessed into Perl6MultiSub instead of parrot's MultiSub
colomon There is a Num.sin in the setting, and in fact I think I may have managed to write Complex.sin...
pmichaud checks
moritz_ colomon: in general just go into rakudo/src and then type 'ack -w sin' 19:48
pmichaud hmmm, I guess 'sin' isn't currently written in PIR
moritz_ (assuming you have ack installed. If not, it's high time to do so now :)
colomon "ack: command not found"
pmichaud it does look as though sin has been written in multiple locations. that might be a problem.
colomon where might I get ack? 19:49
19:49 abra left
moritz_ from CPAN 19:49
pmichaud cpan App::Ack is what i use
afk for a bit
moritz_ debian has the 'ack-grep' package
colomon MacPorts does not have it, alas. 19:52
But I will take a stab at just installing it from CPAN in a few minutes.
moritz_: Re: fixing these things myself -- what's the best way of handling the version control with that? 19:55
moritz_ colomon: you make your changes, test them, if everything is fine you commit them 'git commit -a' 19:56
colomon Should I fork rakudo on github?
moritz_ then you make a patch from it: 'git format-patch HEAD^'
colomon Ah! 19:57

M_o_C Question: Does infix imply that a function (or does that term only exist for operators?) only takes two arguments? (In a theoretic context, independent from how perl6 does it) 20:49
moritz_ M_o_C: no
M_o_C s/(only) (exist)/\2 \1/ 20:50
moritz_ M_o_C: if an infix is :assoc<list>, it can take an arbitrary number of arguments
M_o_C And how would that syntactically look like?
(When calling that function)
moritz_ sub infix:<foo> is assoc<list> (*@args) { ... }; 1 foo 2 foo 3 foo 4 20:51
M_o_C Ah, ok
moritz_ infix:<,> is the prime example of a list associative operator 20:52

svarg just wondering 21:25
1 ne 2 is correct in perl? 21:26
the syntax
ne being not equal
moritz_ rakudo: say 1 ne 2
p6eval rakudo 0d4fe0: OUTPUT«1␤»
svarg meaning?
moritz_ "1 is not equal 2" is true 21:27
colomon surely want 1 != 2 ?
svarg so we can use 1 ne 2?
and it works?
woah
so moritz_ ne has something to do with strings only? 21:29
M_o_C svarg: Rakudo already answered that question when you told it do compute 1 ne 2. 21:32
svarg oh its just that someone told me it wasnt right since it had something to dow ith strings
21:34 frettled joined
moritz_ svarg: yes, 'ne' converts both arguments to strings and then comparse them inequality 21:35
frettled Good evening (I hope)
21:37 Whiteknight joined
svarg but moritz_ using 1 ne 2 didnt look wrong here 21:37
so we're good to go then
basically 1 ne 2 it only works for strings not ints does it?
21:37 Confield_ left, Su-Shee left
svarg if ("xx xx" ne "xx xx ") { 21:38
rather than ints, being
ie: if (1 != 2) {
right?
moritz_ well, 1 and 2 are inequal both when compared as numbers and as strings 21:39
whereas "0.0" and "0" are different when compared as strings, and equal when compared as numbers 21:40
svarg as i remember, there is a difference between comparing strings vs ints.
ah
i believe it actually compares their ascii values, though not sure. 21:41
moritz_ not quite
it compares graphemes, in theory
svarg ah 21:42
i do remember something as strings/ints are compared differently, so it may be that "ne" is for ints and "!=" is for strings 21:43
no?
moritz_ no, the other way round.
svarg or vice versa
moritz_ you can just try those things out: 21:44
rakudo: say "1.0" == "1"
p6eval rakudo 0d4fe0: OUTPUT«1␤»
moritz_ rakudo: say "1.0" eq "1"
p6eval rakudo 0d4fe0: OUTPUT«0␤»
svarg ah
ok
i get it

colomon pmichaud: A couple of quick questions, then before I take out the garbage and hit the pub. 22:58
Is it intended to be in simplified form? So that 1/4 + 1/4 == 1/2 instead of 2/4s? 22:59
pmichaud haven't gotten that far yet 23:00
I'm thinking it probably should, yes.
colomon I'm thinking simplify in Rat.new?
23:00 Whiteknight left
pmichaud that'd be where I start, yes. 23:01
(sorry if I sound a little short -- other things happening in the background here) 23:05
colomon No worries, I'm doing my own share of running around here. 23:08
If no one else has already done it, I'll look at taking a crack at it post-pub. 23:09
(Are there tests already?)

pmichaud there are some Rat tests already, I think. Pugs had the Rat datatype 23:09
