The :bin is superfluous, and it was previously ignored (until the sub versions of many io operators got refactored by yours truly).

Add :throw named argument to run()

Basically, this will just run the same logic as sinking, causing a failure to be thrown immediately, instead of silently continuing. And this not producing any output with :out.
Also some style changes to run() to make it better readable

Provide a method returning a real 'posix' value
18:13
tbrowder .tell lizmat my horse bolted at the gate--sorry 18:19
tellable6 tbrowder, I'll pass your message to lizmat
lizmat tbrowder: no problem :-) 18:21
tbrowder but how would you improve what you already suggested (without lots of other changes)? 18:22
lizmat locally I already have: 18:23
$ r 'use v6.*; dd DateTime.now.posix'
1621362212.1423843e0
$ r 'use v6.d; dd DateTime.now.posix'
1621362232
tbrowder hm, lizmat the raku magician! 18:25
ah, the ~17 sec diff..been there, done that 18:26
internals? 18:27
tai?
lizmat no just lazy, waiting 17 seconds between running that piece of code :-)
or more like 20 actually 18:28
$ r 'use v6.* say DateTime.new(2021,5,18,20,30,42.5).posix' 18:35
1621369842.5
$ r 'use v6.d say DateTime.new(2021,5,18,20,30,42.5).posix' 18:36
1621369842
so no difference if you go by the same DateTime value
tbrowder so 6.* vs 6.d? that's cheating ;-D 18:41
well retro seems to be popular among some moderns 18:43

Make DateTime.posix return a fractional value in 6.e

This is really a proof-of-concept. It basically saves the DateTime class that is known at the beginning of parsing the 6.e core setting as "DateTimeD", and then creates a DateTime class that inherits from
  "DateTimeD". Several notes to make about this:

18:47
lizmat tbrowder: 6.* is just short for 6.e.PREVIEW atm
tbrowder ok, thnx 18:48
wow, deep magic! makes my head hurt. can my PR be used before 'e'? 18:52
lizmat I'd like to hear jnthn's opinion about my proposal 18:53
tbrowder although that's kind of like the magic you showed me earlier to subclass DateTime 18:54
lizmat I feel moving forward, having posix return a Real value feels better than adding named args now
yeah, that was the inspiration :-)
tbrowder any updated estimate on release of e? 19:02
lizmat probably not before RakuAST lands, and that's Q4 by the looks of it now 19:05

Geth rakudo: 17c55f3ccb | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | src/core.c/DateTime.pm6
Make DateTime.posix about 12x as fast

While looking at the code, and how it handled the "ignore timezone" option, it occurred to me that `posix` actually doesn't care about leap seconds. And the timezone is expressed in seconds. So the
  quick way to get a posix value is just to subtract the timezone
value from the result of the Claus Tøndering algorithm.
Also make DateTime.posix a multi, so a. it can easily accomodate other candidates, and b. to make the common case (do *not* ignore timezone) much better optimizable.
19:52
lizmat tbrowder might like that :-)
tbrowder so, your PR gets closer to mine but with a bonus speed-up, nice! 20:04
mine has the same proto plus only three lines for my new multi (which would need a tweak... 20:05
i understand yr wanting to wait to move to 'e' for the real return, and as has been demoed in my latest roast merge, the 6.d user can get a real posix value with a modicum of work. 20:09
but, what is the downside of adding my multi now: a new multi to be deprecated in 'f'? 20:11
and two for the price of one in 'e'? 20:12
oh, the inpatience of youth :-) 20:13
