fake_space_whale Per the CONTRIBUTING.md, I am nudging this channel to perhaps get some feedback on my pull request github.com/rakudo/rakudo/pull/2225 . Though if you're busy with other stuff that is fine. 02:13
MasterDuke fake_space_whale: now's a pretty slow time of day. and i suspect people are waiting until after the release (which looks like it might be tomorrow) 02:30
fake_space_whale thanks, that makes sense. I am happy to wait. 02:31
AlexDaniel fake_space_whale: master is open, there's no need to wait 02:57
fake_space_whale: I looked at the PR 02:58
fake_space_whale oh?
AlexDaniel m: say 42.:["-"]
camelia 5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Decimal point must be followed by digit
at <tmp>:1
------> 3say 42.7⏏5:["-"]
AlexDaniel ↑ I don't think it covers this case
fake_space_whale I'll go test that
you are correct 03:00
AlexDaniel fake_space_whale: +1 for nudging :) Although, yeah, at this time of a day people are mostly asleep 03:01
fake_space_whale: honestly I'm not fully aware of that syntax, what else is allowed besides <-> and ['-'] ? 03:02
fake_space_whale: <<->> is valid
fake_space_whale: and «-» also
fake_space_whale What version are you using to get that <<->> is valid? 03:03
AlexDaniel 6c: say (42).:<<->> 03:04
committable6 AlexDaniel, ¦6c (31 commits): «-42␤»
AlexDaniel fake_space_whale: any vension
version*
6c: say (42).:«-»
committable6 AlexDaniel, ¦6c (31 commits): «-42␤»
AlexDaniel m: say 42.:«-» 03:05
camelia 5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Decimal point must be followed by digit
at <tmp>:1
------> 3say 42.7⏏5:«-»
fake_space_whale 6c: my $a = 42; $a.:<<->>
committable6 fake_space_whale, ¦6c (31 commits): «WARNINGS for /tmp/5zEvWQafp2:␤Useless use of ":<<->>" in expression ":<<->>" in sink context (line 1)␤»
fake_space_whale 6c: my $a = 42; say $a.:<<->>
committable6 fake_space_whale, ¦6c (31 commits): «-42␤»
AlexDaniel fake_space_whale: are you seeing something different locally? 03:07
fake_space_whale no I made a mistake when I was writing it locally 03:08
AlexDaniel fake_space_whale: note that the insides of <<>> may be quoted also 03:09
m: say 42.:«"-"»
camelia 5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Decimal point must be followed by digit
at <tmp>:1
------> 3say 42.7⏏5:«"-"»
AlexDaniel m: say (42).:«"-"»
camelia -42
AlexDaniel m: say (42).:«'-'»
camelia -42
AlexDaniel m: say (42).:«‘-’»
camelia -42
AlexDaniel m: say (42).:«“-”»
camelia -42
AlexDaniel m: say (42).:« “-” »
camelia -42
fake_space_whale is there a name for the thing which <<->> <-> ["-"] are examples of? 03:11
like are they associative references?
AlexDaniel fake_space_whale: maybe `coloncircumfix` 03:25
fake_space_whale: --target=parse like this: perl6 --target=parse -e 'say (42).:["-"]'
try* :)
fake_space_whale Thank you :D 03:26
AlexDaniel everything from `dottyop` to `circumfix` should work I think, depending on how big you want your shotgun to be for this operation 03:27
tbrowder_ hi 11:44
tbrowder_ i need some advice on current handling of pod: spec testing allows an empty paragraph block (“=for”) but i think that should throw an exception 11:47
that test is in roast S26*/03-abbreviated.t 11:48
tbrowder_ sorry, it is an abbreviated block (“=foo”) which is allowed to be empty 11:50
i guess one could have a use case for it except for one problem: lower names are reserved according to speculation S26 11:51
thus, one way or another, i don’t think the test should pass 11:53
please leave any comments with a .tell or .ask 11:56

lizmat .seen Zoffix 14:41
yoleaux I saw Zoffix 16 Aug 2018 14:05Z in #perl6: <Zoffix> Tison: IIRC there's actually an example somewhere in perl6advent.wordpress.com/2017/12/02/ that shows just how much typing the `@` shortcut on variables saves
AlexDaniel lizmat: yeah, I miss them too. They're around according to github activity, I assume just taking a well deserved break 15:14
or maybe working on something cool :) 15:18
lizmat I hope so 15:50
