good to see a friendly soul
masak I... fell asleep before November blogging yesterday. seems I needed to catch up on sleep a bit. 06:48
I'll make the best of it and blog a bit now.
tadzik :)
neutro wasn't building for Star? crap 06:51
tadzik what are star modules built with? ufo? 06:56

sorear TimToady: Why does STD use temp $*STUB = ... instead of my $stub = ... ? 07:05
lue HP&TMoR is a great book!
masak Haskell is more easy to pick up after Perl 6. Haskell makes one grateful for certain things in Perl 6. comichunter.net/nowhere/opinions/pe...skell.html 07:07
lue
.oO(I completely forgot about the timey-wimey that was briefly introduced in Harry Potter)
 07:12
masak lue: how's Pod going? 07:16
Greenpea, I mean. 07:17
lue Good. Although I already spy a refactor when I want blocks-in-blocks working, and I haven't created one test :/ 07:23
(I can't wait for that House style epiphany) 07:26
masak lue: I'd like you to meet this idea. lue, red-green-refactor. red-green-refactor, lue. agileinaflash.blogspot.com/2009/02/...actor.html 07:28
lue: TDD has been among the most revolutionary ideas as I've learned to code better in the past few years. it keeps informing the way I approach a coding task. 07:30
lue If I understood correctly, the process is: write tests -> fail tests -> write code -> pass tests -> refactor (change/add/remove code, moar tests, etc.) -> fail tests ... 07:34
masak sounds about right.
and they embody that in the three-step cycle red, green, refactor. 07:35
lue hm, I feel temporarily ignoring the fact I've written any code is a Very Good Idea™. It also helps that after all of the interesting errors I talked about were fixed, I'm "bored" and can't figure out what to do next. 07:37
This could be the reason why just about every coding project I've ever started is unfinished!!! O.o [ thank you masak, I knew a House-style epiphany would come! ] 07:38
masak my only remaining quibble with the idea of TDD is that sometimes I don't want to switch contexts between writing tests and writing code. so sometimes I cheat a bit and write lots of tests up front. it spoils the idea a bit, but I must confess it sometimes feels more "right". 07:39
lue: finishing things is hard. however, I find my success rate increases if there are people downstream using the thing. that seems to be the biggest thing determining whether programming projects I start get completed. 07:40
sorear needs to find downstream users 07:41
dalek ecza: 2390300 | sorear++ | lib/SAFE.setting:

 07:42
masak sorear: downstream users were the success of Pugs and Rakudo. I believe a little implementation like niecza could really soar given a few dedicated downstream users, too. 07:43

sorear lue: when I was your age, I thought the same thing. 08:25
now I'm 20 and I cannot fall asleep any earlier than 3AM
it's like I'm living on Melbourne time ... and I need to take classes in San Diego 08:26
lue I'll be sure to remember that.
masak blog post! I'm 29, and 08:31

but hopefully it'll get better now that I've turned it right to get my early mornings back. 08:32

isBEKaml the HN post about haskell and perl6 strikes a good chord. Haskell certainly feels nice to program in, especially after looking at Perl6. :) 18:49
I have been going over haskell tutorials the past couple of weeks. 18:50
The odd thing here is that, I didn't quite think of Perl6 as a functional programming language. It just made more sense. 18:53
Any haskellers here? If so, it'd be good to see some blog post comparing haskell and perl6 (even as it's too early to do that) :) 18:55
masak too early? it's eight o'clock in the evening. 18:56
isBEKaml and it's half past midnight. ;)
(here)
masak: you programmed in haskell? 18:57
masak a bit. 18:58
not nearly enough.
isBEKaml job or fun?
masak fun.
isBEKaml nice. 18:59
masak I felt Haskell to be very mathematical in nature. and I mean that in a nice way. 19:00
edenc haskell is awesome
masak refactoring felt like rewriting math formulas in better ways.
isBEKaml well, yeah. It's like those math function stuff from high school. 19:01
edenc haha, high school? 19:02
isBEKaml well, would elementary school be right? :D
edenc there's a lot more than high school math in haskell
but yeah, it's nice to be able to write the theoretical formulae directly 19:03
straight from the textbook 19:04
no imperative munging
isBEKaml no disagreement here. your last point was what I meant.
edenc isBEKaml: you know that operators in haskell are just functions right?
isBEKaml yes. 19:05
tadzik familiar 19:06
isBEKaml edenc: more than that, I liked how the type specification in functions is just more straightforward.
and, that functions can take only one param at a time. It's basically chained all the way for the rest of the params. 19:07
edenc well yes, it uses the same notation as set theory/functions
isBEKaml set theory was so long ago. I don't remember them at all. :/
TimToady <sorear> TimToady: Why does STD use temp $*STUB = ... instead of my $stub = ... ? 19:21

TimToady Tolkien of course knew this, which is why Bilbo uses Attercop! as a term of derision to the big spiders
moritz_ is an unEnglish speaker
TimToady I always associated that dialect with Transylvania... 19:54

dalek tpfwiki: (Herbert Breunung)++ | www.perlfoundation.org/perl6/index....ble_tablet 20:19
sorear IIUC there are a fair number of nuclear plants sitting idle due to environmental panic 20:21
interestingly, 80-90% of the *calls* to my LTM engine come from |, but 98% of the *time* is spent from protoregexes 20:24
TimToady that probably makes sense, given | tends to be for low-level decisions, while protos are more for high-level decisions 20:33
sorear I suspect the issue is superlinearity somewhere, and the profile being skewed by the 7000+ node 'term' NFA
hmm
TimToady not trying to discourage you from optimizing protos, of course :) 20:34
are you counting the setup of lexers as part of the 98%? 20:35
sorear yes, but if I didn't it would still be like 97% 20:36
265784 time units for the main protoregex entry point, 48742 for GetProtoregexLexer 20:37
the Mono profiler only reports cumulative inclusive times, which is... interesting
TimToady maybe small lexers are easier to keep in CPU caches at various levels 20:38
TimToady and high-level things like term still have to recurse down through many levels despite knowing their "fate" in advance 20:39
or are you doing those with continuations these days? 20:40
in which case it might be continuation overhead
maybe we need to port NYTProf to that VM :) 20:42
sorear I got rid of fates because they seem to be a pessimization now
[a | b | c] [d | e | f] generates a much bigger NFA with fates enabled 20:43
timbunce was summoned by a magic word
sorear because the tail has to be duplicated
TimToady then you're redoing a lot of work 20:43
kthakore hello
sorear also I think I've found my problem
TimToady on recursion, not on seqs
kthakore I can't seem to get a successfull build of rakudo on linux
sorear kthakore: RAM? 20:44
kthakore sorear: not a problem I have 8GB. May I mention my problem first?
sorear You didn't
of course
kthakore PackFile_unpack: This Parrot cannot read bytecode files with version 9.2. 20:45
I get that when I run ./perl6
sorear you have stale files somewhere
kthakore aww ...
sorear rm -rf parrot_install parrot and try again
kthakore ok
tadzik also consider make realclean in parrot dir
kthakore sorear: thanks .. sorry if I seemed rude. You are just really fast.
tadzik oh, there is also a parrot after rm. I try to avoid this, Parrot repo is HUGE 20:46
sorear TimToady: in cgexp:name [part of the Niecza syntax extensions], we have { <-[ ' " ( ) { } \[ \] \s ]>+ }
TimToady: this desugars to [ <![ . . . ]> . ]+, which generates LTM of .+ 20:47
this causes quadratic behavior because .+ has to be matched to the end of the file
TimToady yes, I think the LTMer must be aware of negated character classes more than the desugar would suggest 20:49
sets of characters are the proper domain of LTM, so you can't afford to hide that construct behind a desugar
TimToady and re [a | b | c] [d | e | f], that seems like a really good place for a :: to stop LTM explosion rather than an excuse to redo a lot of work in submatches 21:07
TimToady 'course, as LTM gets faster, that becomes less of an issue, I'll grant 21:09
I'll also grant that an adequate profiler beats intuition most any day 21:11
(the jury still being out on whether your profiler is adequate)
sorear timbunce: How would you react to someone trying to do a 3rd party nytprof.out emitter? 21:17
timbunce sorear: I'd be delighted. That's one reason why Nicholas and I worked on factoring the writing code into FileHandle.xs 21:18
TimToady some yaks need more shaving than others... 21:19
timbunce sorear: Ideally, though, the standard format ought to be an sqlite db file. (I almost went crazy trying to 'edit' the internal data structure in the reporting code to implement eval merging.) I figure we'll end up with a data file to slqite converter at some point then the reporting tools would work from the db. 21:21
sorear hmm, I haven't seen FileHandle.xs, I guess it's been too long since I read through this :) 21:23
tadzik where are contextual vars speced?
moritz_ probably S02 or S04 21:24
sorear S02:2825 21:25
timbunce sorear: FileHandle.xs would need refactoring to split out the raw C parts from the perl5 dependencies so you'd end up with a libnytprofwrite.so you could link into other things.

lue how would you do that?
sorear you wouldn't 22:37
it makes no sense

sorear it's like trying to use Str.comb on a FileHandle
lue rakudo: grammar A { token B { abcd } }; say A.parse("abcd", :rule<B>); 22:39
p6eval rakudo : OUTPUT«abcd␤»
sorear please take a step back and explain what you're *actually* trying to do
lue I'm just writing tests. 22:41
