| Ven | o/ | 11:52 | |
| masak: do you have any idea for a 6advent blog post? I'm considering continuing my blogpost from last year (on quickcheck/6check), but I'd gladly take another topic..... | 11:54 | ||
| masak | hm | 12:34 | |
| has anyone written about refactoring as seen from a Perl 6 lens? | |||
| Ven | mh. that sounds a bit vague, I'm not too sure what you mean? | 13:11 | |
| masak | not sure actually | 13:12 | |
| sometimes I get the feeling that Perl 6 is quite refactoring-friendly | |||
| considering that I do most things in it without an IDE | |||
| there are numerous ways to write one thing, and usually it's quite pleasant to rewrite it from one way to another | |||
| through the years I've come to think of those transitions between working states of the program as being themselves quite interesting and worthy of study | 13:13 | ||
| Ven | well, I think we have enough talks and blogposts about grammars and subsets. | 14:04 | |
| I really liked your "everyday Perl 6" talk btw. I wanted to write something akin to that... | |||
| masak | oh, cool -- the Swiss Perl Workshop one? | 14:05 | |
| Ven | yes. | 14:18 | |
| "it's not about the crazy one-liners, it's about actual DWIMs" | 14:19 | ||
| masak | yeah | ||
| when I started in ~2005 with Perl 6, it was definitely the crazy "cool" features that pulled me in | |||
| but that's not why I use Perl 6 nowadays | 14:20 | ||
| junctions are a good example. I don't hate them 100%, but I use them *very* sparingly | |||
| Ven | don't tell me. I started learning it because an advent calendar blogpost had typo'd "[&&]" as "[&&}" and I wanted to learn a language crazy enough to have non-matching brackets. :P | ||
| not sure how to write something about this without plagiarizing your document. :P | 14:21 | ||
| masak | haha | 14:44 | |
| if you feel you have a topic there, go for it | |||
