stevied | in the META6.json module in the resources sections, does a Windows machine also use the `/` as a path separator? I imagine that it does but I just want to check to make sure | 00:26 | |

Anton Antonov | I am re-reading docs.raku.org/language/list . Is there any other "motivational" document(s) discussing the design decisions to have / use `Seq` in a such ubiquitous manner? And/or a document with usage advice. | 14:32 | |
Nemokosch | probably because of the memory implications | 16:09 | |

Morfent | > Lazy evaluation when possible, eager evaluation when wanted or necessary. This means, for example, lazy lists, and even infinite lazy lists, like the Fibonacci sequence, or all prime numbers. | 16:40 | |
listed as an advantage of using raku from docs.raku.org/language/faq | |||
there's a page on the docs on the working with the list-ish types | |||
oh that's what you linked | 16:41 | ||
Nemokosch | I do like the "all prime numbers" thing for the weekly challenges, haha | 17:01 | |
tbh I still haven't decided on my coding style | 17:02 | ||
least parens is a tempting paradigm, but data->transformation makes more sense | |||
I definitely prefer data->transformation to transformation->data | 17:03 | ||
I don't know if this is only because this is the Hungarian way of thinking or it has actiual benefits | |||
Anton Antonov | Also, Japanese way of thinking. | 17:14 | |
<@297037173541175296> If I understand correctly the "data->transformation" reference. | 17:15 | ||
Nemokosch | Maybe | ||
Take the word and add stuff to it until it has the right meaning and grammatical form | |||
And in code: base sequence, filter, map, action kind of order | 17:17 | ||
Anton Antonov | I see -- Hungarian is agglutinative. Hence, postfixes with postfixes. | ||
Right. This kind of the style propagated with "monad" pipelines packages. | |||
Nemokosch | Of course a natural language isn't this rigorously consistent but the overall concept is the same | ||
Generic to specific | 17:18 | ||
