kid51 This question was just posed in #parrot: "can anyone recommend an article or document i can read to get started w/ nqp?" 02:16
sorear perhaps the squaak tutorial; IIRC that was rewritten to use nqp not long ago 02:22
Why can't I define a subregex? 02:23
method versus submethod and $~MAIN versus $~Regex are orthogonal in the implementation, but only three combinations are supported by the syntax 02:24

bubaflub sorear: thanks
someone in #parrot was asking for a resource on where to learn npq
i pointed them to moritz++ 's blog
any other suggestions?

mberends hi sorear, I have been following your gtk remarks and also read some documentation. I would with regret ignore gtk3 for now because it is not "ready" in the same way that Perl 6 implementations are not "ready". The Gnome developers decided at their latest conference in March 2011 to postpone the release of stable gtk 3.0 to September 2011 so that the team have time to improve it. 05:08
The Ubuntu developers had already decided not to base their 2011.04 release on gtk3 because of shortcomings in its implementation whose details I do not know. It would not be a wasted effort to target gtk 2.x in the meantime because the changes, though numerous, are evolutionary, not revolutionary. To paraphrase, gtk3 is still gtk.
05:16 aesop left
mberends To minimize installation dependency hurdles I would recommend burning a LiveCD out of www.debian.org/CD/live/ not because lots of people use it, but because what it contains as base libraries is common to the greatest number of derived Linux distributions. It is a quick way to temporarily start up a perfectly clean and standardized reference platform to discover what you need to install to get your own project running on almost everyone else's 05:17
computer. I just hope that your computer with 384MB ram is happy booting it.

mberends hi moritz
sorear Exodist: the correct answer is "allomorphic" 06:41
TimToady++ taught me that word
Exodist Is it just me, or has this channel shrunk significantly since I was last here (couple months I think, wow...) 06:42
moritz /names says 197 nicks... I don't think that's much less than it used to
I kinda remember it having around 130
diakopter it was higher, but then a giant netsplit ate a bunch I think
sorear s/netsplit/channel takeover/ 06:43
moritz giant net squid
Exodist octocat snezed
*sneased
sorear (on the plus side, they made enough noise that we were able to convince #freenode to drop the channel and set new metaops)
Exodist probably needs to go to bed before he spells more words that way... 06:44
sorear sneezed.
Exodist oh, it was litterally taken over at some point?
sorear yes, some twerp stole 'audreyt' and /kicked out all the lurkers 06:45
Exodist ... I don't know whats more [blank stare] about that, the fact that the person did it, or the fact that he got audreyt's account.... 06:46
woldrich what's wrong with people.
sorear au|irc doesn't use audreyt anymore
audreyt was never registered
Exodist brb, dog needs out
then how did th account gain ops?
*really brb this time 06:47
sorear "effectively"
06:47 Teedev joined
diakopter the account 'audreyt' was never registered, to clarify what sorear said 06:47
sorear Exodist: have you been gone long enough to miss the new implementation? :> 06:48
Exodist sorear, most likely, I started a new job bac in december, I think thats when I was last on 06:51
(back)
sorear I had already started for a while in December
Exodist how did the account get ops if it was never registered
sorear Exodist: you don't need to register an account to give a nickname persistant ops 06:52
Exodist sorear, I think I stopped paying attention though a month or 2 before that as my faux go at it fizzled (back as my new language attemp is ramping up, though its not perl6)
sorear, my misunderstanding, I assumed that since it wasn't registered it was never used, and thus should not have had ops.
and that the person came in and convinced someone to op them 06:53
sorear niecza: "foobar" ~~ / [ foo | \w+ ] { say "got here: $/.pos" } /

phenny masak: 01 Apr 23:10Z <Tene> tell masak about ethanschoonover.com/solarized
masak Tene: that page is beautiful, and perfectly captures the kind of color esthetic/awareness I'd like to see in my color picker.
just like CRUD screens are thoughtless and user-unaware, most of today's color pickers are tailored to bits and bytes, not to brains. 09:29
Tene I thought you'd like that. I'm always glad when I get things like that right. 09:30
:)
masak :)
I'm pretty good at mentally deciphering a six-digit hex number into an actual color. but on some deeper level, I don't *care*.
moritz finds the text on that page slightly difficult to read, due to lack of contrast
masak moritz: ssh! it's scientific, so it can't be wrong! :P 09:31
but yes, I agree. backgrounds needn't be #fff, but text should be #000, or so near as making no difference. 09:32
I thought I'd try making a Yapsi release today. I just need to run a small errand first. 09:33
Tene masak: and your thoughts on the reverse?
masak Tene: sorry, could you rephrase that question?
Tene masak: given light text on a dark bg, does the bg need to be #000? does the text need to be #fff?
masak hm. 09:34
I... don't know. would need to experiment a bit with that.
moritz is not good at design, but good at identifying bad design
masak Tene: but I generally have that kind of setup in dark environments at night, and then I think colors need not be bright at all. a #777 text would probably be fine. 09:35
Tene 'k
masak I think I'd definitely prefer the bg to be #000 in that case.

tadzik: for one github doesn't like your links to json.org - not sure if that's your fault or github's 15:47
tadzik: the second is that I'd rename s:g/repo/source/ because when we support links to tarballs, "repo" will sound oh so wrong 15:48

sorear TimToady: how so?
TimToady the old MD didn't go via proto 16:01

tadzik PerlJam: I meant "the module manager may make use of it, may not" 16:02
TimToady that's why we respec'ed it to use 'dispatch' routines several months ago
tadzik Panda displays it on `panda info`, ignores it in every other case
sorear well, I'm actually just interested in the dispatch algorithm
esp. the minutae of candidate list sorting
TimToady ah, that parts pretty good

pmurias sorear: you have seen mildew's MMD implementation? 20:22
sorear pmurias: yes, but I don't really understand how the mildew bootstrap works
pmurias some classes are defined in C+DSL 20:23
other ones that use those are written in Perl 6
mildew is written in Perl 5 so it doesn't bootstrap
sorear also, current versions of mildew are incompatible with current versions of gcc
even with -O0 gcc 4.4 wants >2GiB to compile the .c file resulting from MildewCORE 20:24
pmurias the performance from the code generated by mildew was horrible so there is not much use trying to get it to work 20:25
sorear: there is a second backend in mildew that generates much smaller C files (arrays of bytecode, rather than giant switches) 20:26
sorear: the tricky part in the boostrap of the mildew object system is that the 'use adhoc-signatures' makes the signatures be simpler objects implemented in C rather full signatures (which are a class written in Perl6) 20:28
sorear ahah 20:29
did mildew/smop do gather?
pmurias don't remember 20:30
it had everything that was need for that for sure
coroutines etc.
sorear How did coroutines work with 'polymorphic eval'? 20:31
pmurias polymorphic eval is basically 'while 1 {invoke the current couroutine}' 20:33
* coroutine 20:34
perl5 interop worked using Coro

Parse "multi method" correctly, add basic type-MMD tests
ecza: 39cf462 | sorear++ | lib/Kernel.cs:
Implement MMD longname extractor
pmurias continuations would have require adding a .clone method to coroutines
sorear sounds a lot like the for (;;) { th = th.code(th); } at the heart of niecza
pmurias yes, seems to be the same thing 20:35
is .code polymorphic?
sorear yes 20:37
niecza requires a rigid format for the frames; they aren't general MOP-objects 20:38
pmurias niecza seems to have a lot in common with smop, with more things hardcoded (so faster) and loads more opcodes instead of having things in C 20:42
the main reason i stoped working on smop/mildew wasn't any big design problems but that writing a compiler+vm by myself didn't seem a fun/sensible thing 20:44
with niecza using .net you don't have to worry with things such as writing a fast garbage collect 20:45
using reference counting was a design problem
as it's really a pain to debug
sorear I was under the impression reference counting was a sacrifice to allow p5interop
pmurias one of the plans was to integrate p5 and smop really closely (add a ->RI pointer to SV*) 20:48
sorear: reference counting is not nessary for p5interop but helps 20:49
sorear: and use p5 types for strings etc. 20:50

pmurias it might be fun to try that with niecza and a (rewritten) smop at some point 20:51

pmurias sorear: the other reason besides p5 integration for using reference counting is that writing a fast gc is a hard thing 20:56

sorear moritz: Is it a known bug that Rakudo doesn't implement "constrained multis are called in order and are never ambiguous"? 21:49
plobsing I know that bug. I complained about it previously. That's one of the reasons the multi-ackerman example on rosettacode is broken. 21:51

sorear plobsing: okay. 22:34
sorear is not quite following how the sorting process is intended to work 22:35
consider the dag A -> B -> C, A -> D
there are two total orders consistant with this, thus two possible outcomes from "topological sorting"
1. A, [B,D], C
2. A, B, D, C 22:36
actually I miscounted
22:36 aesop joined
sorear 3. A, B, [C,D] 4. A, D, B, C 5. A, B, C, D 22:36
Rakudo produces #1, but they're all wrong
if the capture in question rejects A, then B and D are tied candidates; however, #2, #3, #4, and #5 will erroneously consider one to have won 22:38
if the capture in question rejects both A and B, then C and D are the tied candidates, but #1, #2, #4, and #5 will fail to detect this

cognominal sorear is back to BASIC? 22:40

I probably betray the generation I belong to 22:51
and my last line is a literal translation from French and sounds wrong in English :( 22:53

sorear cognominal: other than the tense (should be 'betrayed'), that line is completely fine 23:03

cognominal Indeed, according to the american heritage dictionary, except for the "deceive" denotation, the various meanings are the same as French. 23:29
