AlexDaniel_ ipatrol: there's some NYI stuff associated with ｢unit｣ 00:52

ipatrol what is a "unit scoped variable"?
a global variable?

do you have that?
AlexDaniel_ ipatrol: so TWEAK is being added to the buildplan, but I don't really know how this stuff works 04:07
ipatrol and new calls bless, which simply calls BUILDALL, which invokes the buildplan
AlexDaniel_ ipatrol: fwiw, I enjoy your questions :) 04:08
ipatrol AlexDaniel_: it's certainly interesting to pry into the guts of the beast :-)
AlexDaniel_ ipatrol: why are you doing that, by the way? :)
ipatrol AlexDaniel_: trying to create a hard container binding to a class attribute through the constructor 04:09
and I was seeing if a custom TWEAK was the best way to do that, or if I should write a privmethod and invoke it through my new() 04:10

some of them should go to rakudo/t but we can include that

ipatrol tbqh, I think Perl 6 gets a little anal about private methods and attributes 04:24
Zoffix 6.d don't sound like a good idea. A lot of newcomers are interested in squashathon. I thought rakudo was a bit high-level bar as it were; with 6.d it's even worse. What do we tell them? Here's our language spec; look through it and find anything we don't want the language to be like? 04:26

ipatrol AlexDaniel_: this is, by the way, part of what I meant when I said I didn't think including IO in Cool was a great idea 04:50
Zoffix require can take an path tho 04:53
ipatrol Personally, I think they should be their own quoting construct, like regexes are
Since they really aren't typical data or user strings, but rather are references to places in the filesystem 04:57
Zoffix ? 04:58
ugexe you mean a uri, which is a string?
geekosaur needing magic quotes for file paths is just asking for trouble, I think
ipatrol geekosaur: I actually think it would prevent certain security problems while improving compatibility 04:59
and it wouldn't need anything more than one or two new adverbs for the Q operator 05:00
Zoffix ipatrol: we don't have any magic to make IO::Paths out of strings. It's the .IO coercer that does it. `require` simply makes an IO::Path under the hood which causes the error. This has nothing to do with IO::Path beingh cool
There was a `qp` quoter (like `qx//`) in the spec, but it was tossed on acocunt of being useless 05:01
*account
ipatrol Zoffix: I don't think it's any more or less useful than having IO be a method of Cool 05:04
05:05 ufobat joined
Zoffix ... it is a method of Cool :/ 05:06
ipatrol Zoffix: exactly my point. It's a difference of implementation 05:07
Zoffix ?
Zoffix doesn't get the point
IO::Path shouldn't be Cool because not all IO::Paths can have a numeric views 05:08
ugh my keyboard is having a stroke again ___ 05:09
ipatrol Zoffix: personally, I'm not much a fan of the Cool system. I tend to think type coercions should be done explicitly 05:10
05:11 ryn1x joined
Zoffix Well, I'm sure plenty of languages do that :P 05:13
ipatrol And therefore I'd say most of the mathematical functions like asin and log should be from the Numeric role instead 05:15
Zoffix They are :) 05:16
05:16 kaare_ left
ipatrol Zoffix: they're not. They're supplied by Cool. Numeric is just a role that has one or two methods 05:17
well maybe that's a slight understatement. I count 9 mathematical methods provided by Numeric. Cool provides 36. 05:19
05:19 ryn1x left 05:20 ryn1x joined
Zoffix It doesn't tho. It coerces the argument to Numeric and calls delegates the call 05:20
That's the whole point of Cool; that things that can be used as either a number or a string can be just used without any manual coercion. 05:21
Zoffix &
05:21 Zoffix left
ipatrol ... 05:26
05:29 ryn1x left
moritz putting methods more methods into Numeric doesn't provide any benefits, because the implementation is different for the various numeric types 05:30
and since this is not java, putting a stub / interface-like method doesn't have any practical benefits 05:31
geekosaur and, this is kinda a core design decision that is not open to discussion 05:33
the time to discuss it was like 2004
ipatrol geekosaur: I was messing around with the Encarta Encyclopedia on a Windows XP back then
05:35 skids left
ipatrol geekosaur: I was actually thinking about a pragma that would tighten the type rules 05:35
geekosaur it's not that simple. an alternative setting might be doable though 05:36
ipatrol geekosaur: I think all it would need to do would be to remove most of the functions from Cool and reassign them to either Numeric or Stringy, as appropriate 05:38
geekosaur and that requires a new setting
ipatrol a setting as in a command line flag?
geekosaur unless you really want to rewire everything at runtime and incur the resulting performance penalty
ipatrol geekosaur: ideally not, although I could write a runtime rewiring just as a PoC 05:39
geekosaur no. the setting is the base language you're presented with
Prelude, standard library, whatever
we have I think 3 currently: 6.c, RESTRICTED which is 6.c with the IO stuff removed, and 6.d.PREVIEW 05:40
ipatrol oh, you mean the version
05:48 kyan left
ipatrol geekosaur: No, I simply meant introducing a pragma that would allow developers to decide how strict the *built in functions* are on types 05:49
geekosaur do you think, just maybe, you could examine how the language is put together before deciding you know how simple your proposal is?
05:50 ryn1x joined
ipatrol geekosaur: I have. my thought is to throw a (if $*STRICT {Numeric} else {Cool}) into the type constraints for the routines 05:56
(and likewise for stringy functions) 05:57
geekosaur: actually reading the source, I might have a simpler way to do it 05:59
In Cool.pm, everything from what is now line 6 through line 56 could be put inside a conditional, and that would implement about half of my proposal 06:02
The stringy methods would require a little more reorganizing, but that's ti 06:04

yoleaux 04:03Z <AlexDaniel_> stmuk: there's a question about rakudo star irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2017-10-09#i_15276314
stmuk Hmm I don't understand that question 07:18
teatime I'm assuming nqp-j is a build product? and he doesn't realize that and thinks its presence in nqp/.gitignore is an error. 07:22
stmuk the JVM build in star confuses people mainly because it doesn't work 07:24
github.com/rakudo/star/blob/master/README#L32 is fairly strongly worded "don't do it" 07:25
maybe I should just remove the build option

stmuk well I'd see it as a "entry level" distribution rather a "dummy" one and my hope in keeping brokeness like jvm and windows is that someone new (who is technical) sees it and is drawn into help 07:51
but maybe configure should warn or exit by default 07:52

El_Che stmuk: it's your baby :) 07:55
stmuk brew isn't
El_Che stmuk: I'll have a look soon
sure, but people won't blame brew for the bad experience
(for the record, it worked just fine when I tried it) 07:56
(I used that for a backup script)
stmuk if someone has a brew problem they should either use upstream (our source or binaries) or contact the brew maintainers 07:57
El_Che stmuk: that's not what I mean 07:58
stmuk: of course you won't support it
stmuk personally I'm more interested in pkgsrc which is cross platform and I use
I don't use brew
El_Che stmuk: but you want to know if it's broken or not. Or at least sane
stmuk if you use brew go ahead 07:59
El_Che stmuk: I use the mac laptop more as a glorified type writer than as a dev machine
brew was the first thing google returned
TEttinger do type writers have esc keys?
El_Che didn't even know pkgsrc was used on the mac
stmuk El_Che: I think it needs a case sensitive mount on the mac or did last time I looked! 08:00
El_Che brew? 08:01
08:01 ryn1x left
El_Che it doesn't 08:01
stmuk pkgsrc
El_Che ah ok
08:01 ryn1x joined
El_Che fs was updated to APFS during the high sierra install, I don't know if it's case sensitive or not nowadays 08:01
I'll have a look at pkgsrc 08:02
stmuk they won't have changed case behaviour I'm sure 08:03
"APFS accepts only valid UTF-8 encoded filenames for creation, and preserves both case and normalization of the filename on disk in all variants. APFS, like HFS+, is case-sensitive on iOS and is available in case-sensitive and case-insensitive variants on macOS, with case-insensitive being the default.
El_Che stmuk: things don't fall apart on the mac with case sensitive fs? 08:06
stmuk El_Che: historically yes I remember problems with head(1) and perl 5 lwp HEAD years back but I think many things are worked around by now at least for perl 5 08:08
having a virtual file mounted on a case sensitive mount point with limited things installed there is fine (although a bit of a PITA) 08:10

HoboWithAShotgun what's you guys stance on the rename issue? Looking at that code, it's not hard to argue that ain't perl anymore 12:10
12:10 mr-foobar left
tyil I'm fine with any name, as long as we settle 12:11
I do like 6lang most of the proposed renames 12:12
I do think a rename would make it easier to get a new crowd, since the moment I mention perl, the 5 or 6 is ignored and I get the regular rebuttal that perl is write only
12:13 Aaronepower left 12:14 mr-foobar joined, ggoebel joined
tyil then again, the name 'perl 6' uses perl because it has the same ideals and philosophy as perl 5 12:15
not because its trying to mimick the syntax
12:15 zakharyas left
bitrauser_ I don't have a problem with 'Perl 6' as the name, however the arguments for a change/alternative do make sense. From the suggestions so far I also like '6lang' the most. 12:15
But I'm new to everything Perl6 12:17
lizmat fwiw, of all the proposals and possibilities, I'm still most in favor of "Rakudo Perl 6", or short "Rakudo"
mattr @tyil FYI there was a slashdot article yesterday on a video with Larry. I was a bit shocked at the negativity and people were repeating tired things about Perl 5. developers.slashdot.org/story/17/1...larry-wall 12:18
tyil bitrauser_: we all were at some point :>
jast personally I think the time for a rename is long past
lizmat it allows people to talk about something new (aka Rakudo) whereas clearly indicating it's heritage (Perl) and that there's progress (6 > 5 )
tyil Ive seen the vid, mattr, but not read the article
I'll cruise through it for a bit
but I think I know what to expect :p
jast meaning, it might have made sense way earlier, but now everyone already knows it as Perl 6 12:19
lizmat also: with all the Perl 6 books coming out now, I think the ship for a more through name change has *really* sailed
mattr FWIW I posted on the thread as mattr noting Perl 6 is exciting and a totally different language. Personally I was uncomfortable with the idea of changing the name but if this really indicates the level of hatred/misunderstanding perhaps it would be good to at least call it P6 in public?
tyil mattr: the worst part about people using such 'arguments' against perl, is that most of them have never even read or written any perl, they just heard people shitting on it and started doing the same
mattr Thanks tyil, I agree and personally I like "Perl 6". Actually I have not had time to watch the vid yet :) 12:20
lizmat I think much of the hatred is of a lover scorned, we need to get the love back
mattr Maybe just indicative the /. has deteriorated and not actually what programmers think. 12:21
Hi lizmat!
lizmat mattr o/
mattr Indeed ship sailed.
By the way on a happier note I have a question.. :)
lizmat also: I think we have a better chance of being "the come back kid" rather than being one of the many new toys to be discarded 12:22
as soon as something perceived to be a better toy comes along
mattr yes
lizmat Perl 6 shouldn't be the latest JS framework (sorry pmurias :-)
mattr lol
There is so much amazing stuff going on in the Perl 6 world I am hoping to learn enough to not drag people down with silly questions. Kudos 12:23

sub count($num) { my @lst; for 0..$num -> $v { if Str($v).comb.grep("7")==2 { @lst.push($v) } } say @lst.elems } count(99999)
This was much slower than this python version
def count(num): lst=[] for i in range(num): if str(i).count("7")==2: lst.append(i) return len(lst) print(count(99999))

geekosaur (as a long-time p5 programmer I can say the goop never catches any of my leaky p5-isms; they're too subtle) 23:43
