demostanis Hello everyone! A little question, how do I make a variable to a package? I have a simple package containing a subroutine, calling My::Package::subroutine works, but when I make a $variable = My::Package; $variable::subroutine is of type (Any) 10:06

dakkar m: package Foo { our sub bar { say 'it worked' } };my $p='Foo'; &::($p)::bar()
camelia it worked
demostanis Thanks for the solutions, I've had forgotten the & and to put My::Package inside quotes 10:25

guifa2 I don't think I'd ever used it until porting this C code 13:57
I can probably get rid of it, but I'm wary of making my Raku code stray too far from standard code 13:58
I've actually thought about literally included chunks of the C code as comments, just to help spot changes in the standard library and implement them 13:59

guifa2 moritz lizmat jnthn timotimo: since y'all use "summer time" as opposed to "daylight (savings) time" on this side of the pond, any thoughts on naming the method to check if a time is in standard vs summer/daylight time? The standard C library uses "isdst" but I'm not 100% liking $time.is-dst for Raku 14:02
moritz guifa2: I always thought of "summer time" as a bad translation of DST :D 14:04
could be $time.is-dst or even $time.is-dailight-savings 14:05

Sorry for that, should've read the instructions more carefully.		 14:07
guifa2 moritz: heh. I'd be happy if we just got rid of it but alas, 'tis not the case 14:08
dakkar nitpick: "saving", not "savings" 14:10
guifa2 I think tonight I'll be able to release this sucker, just have to finish the localtime->gmt conversion code. I think the technique for hacking DateTime will be worthy of an interesting blog post (one of the many I've promised lizmat and still not finished lol).
dakkar it's a change to save (i.e. use more of) day time
and of course I mangle my own explanation…
it's a change to the local time, to save (i.e. use more of) daylight
guifa2: I always forget to ask… in Intl, is the current locale only stored in a process global? 14:12
(I may have misunderstood completely, though)
guifa2 dakkar: for UserLanguage yes. It's set once upon first use to avoid repeated shell calls. 14:13
dakkar so I can't use `Intl::UserLanguage` in (for example) web applications
guifa2 For all other modules, you can always specify a language, it just defaults to UserLanguage if you don't
dakkar now that I've actually looked at the code, yes, UserLanguage is only useful for command-line things 14:14
guifa2 For a webapp, I'd load UserLanguage but specify a fallback language (English, probably, in most use cases) 14:15
dakkar for HTTP, I should construct a `LanguageTag` from `Accept-language` or equivalent
guifa2 Exactly. And Intl::LanguageTag has tag selection functions
dakkar thank you! 14:16
guifa2 dakkar: no problem. Please let me know if you encounter any issues with any of them. I haven't approached performance tuning though outside of trying to lazy load yet — for your web example, it will only load English until you get a Spanish user, then it'll have EN and ES loaded, until you get a German user, then EN ES DE, etc. 14:20
14:20 Xliff left
dakkar sounds sensible! 14:20
I'm not sure if I'll actually get around to using it, but since I've seen other projects make serious mistakes, I'm happy to notice that you haven't made any that I recognise 14:21
guifa2 i'm sure in Timezone there will be one or two, but dealing with time, you basically tend to either load one of the hyper accurate Java libraries or you accept that there may be some minor issues without lots of boilerplate 14:23

codesections Is there a good/idiomatic way to print the elements from a lazy list as they're computed (rather than waiting for the whole list (or a subset of it) to be computed and printing that whole range)? 18:31
(I'm currently using something like `my $i = 0; while $lazy-list[$i] { say $lazy-list[$i++] }` – and that *works* but feels a bit unidiomatic 18:39
