uvtc TimToady and sjohnson: just to chime in about the wrist pain -- if it's related to possible RSI, what's helped me greatly is one of these kinesis-ergo.com/contoured.htm 01:13
along with a trackpad mounted in the middle.
01:13 xinming_ left
uvtc I think I actually emailed TimToady a long time ago about it actually. (I've got no connection with the company other than buying a couple of them.) 01:14
Most important was to have it low enough (ex. on your lap) so your wrists can hangdown just a bit. Anyway, hth. 01:16

benabik I used a Kinesis for a long time, they're very nice. 01:47
Tene uvtc: I've been curious about trying one of those.

uvtc Tene: they're pretty amazingly comfortable. One possible drawback is that they have only a tiny rubber chicklet Esc key (along with the F-keys). 01:57
When using vim, I used ^[ in place of Esc though, and it was fine.
02:00 dayangkun_ left
uvtc The keys though to avoiding hand pain is to have it low (as I mentioned), and also the use of a trackpad so you can avoid touching a mouse. 02:00
02:00 dayangkun_ joined
benabik I used a Kinesis and a trackball. Worked lovely. then I stopped using a desktop. 02:04

TimToady my problem is not with keyboards--it's with crowbars 02:08
uvtc benabik: I'm on a laptop. Using the Contoured/Advantage kybd externally (via USB). Hardly ever touch the built-in keyboard. Trouble is, I'm pretty stranded if I need to work somewhere and haven't brought the keyboard with me.
benabik TimToady: Don't hit your wrist with a crowbar. That's bad.
uvtc: Since I don't have a desk dedicated to my computer, I don't have a good place to use the keyboard. 02:09
uvtc benabik: Ah. Mine generally either stays on my lap, or on top of the laptop when it's folded closed. If I had no room, I'd probably try to figure a way of hanging it on a wall somewhere. :) 02:11
benabik uvtc: Mine also has a... problem. I bought it back when they had lifetime support, but proving that is always an issue, since I can no longer read the serial number.
uvtc TimToady: I'd suggest that typing with a crowbar is probably suboptimal.
Tene I spend most of my time with my feet up on my desk, leaning back in my chair, with the keyboard in my lap.
uvtc TimToady: ;) 02:12
Tene It's not great, but it's the most comfortable I've been able to manage.
benabik Mine is also PS2 interface, which sucks.
Tene Sitting like my co-workers do, straight up in my chair with keyboard on the desk and my legs hanging down on the floor gets very uncomfortable for me pretty quickly.
uvtc benabik: Ah, yeah, the newer ones are USB. I've got an older PS2 model as well as a USB. 02:13
02:13 am0c joined
Tene The best I can do similar to that is with my legs folded under me, up on the chair, but then I lose circulation, so when I have to sit like that, I alternate legs back and forth between up and down, which gets pretty annoying to need to do. 02:13
uvtc Tene: I've used a footstool in the past to help level things out. Putting the feet up once in a while sounds good for circulation. 02:14
flussence_ I got a new mouse today... and it ended up having terrible surface detection and sufficiently high friction on the loose slide-out keyboard thing on my desk as to be completely useless. 02:15
(guess I need a better desk)
uvtc flussence_: the trackpad is less accurate and slower than the mouse, but it's saved my mouse-button finger/hand. 02:16
Tene at home I've got this couch, and I sit on the extended section with my legs up. www.ikea.com/us/en/images/products/...824_S4.JPG 02:17
... I should probably ask a doctor to look into circulation problems or something someday. If I could be comfortable with my legs hanging down, that would be very convenient. 02:18
benabik I had a pretty high accuracy trackball. Had a cutout on the side that let me hold it with finger and thumb. 02:19
uvtc Tene: you might try the footstool idea (along with a regular chair) to see if it works for you.
Tene uvtc: ah, you mean a small stool underneath my desk? I hadn't considered that...
that might work. :) 02:20
I also should try a standing desk someday; I expect to hate it, but it's worth trying.

compilers*
Eevee parrot is a virtual machine that rakudo runs on 04:34

sorear Almost. 05:05
Parrot is designed to be a reusable component (there is a pretty good Lua compiler, and several other things in various states of completeness)
And Perl 6 has several implementations, only one of which targets Parrot. 05:06

tadzik good morning #perl6 14:19
PerlJam gutenMorgen tadzik 14:21
moritz oh hai 14:22
last call for GSOC proposals: about 4 hours left until submission deadline
tadzik yeah, 4;38
tadzik is now after physics exam, can work on GSoC proposal 14:23
PerlJam tadzik: no more spherical cows of uniform density!
tadzik ho, what? :) 14:24
PerlJam What kind of physics were you taking?
moritz PerlJam: nono, phycisists use point cows (ie with zero volume but finite mass) in most models :-) 14:25
tadzik Basics of Physics, it's what I failed last semester :\
moritz is that mechanics?
PerlJam moritz: yeah, but they always have ridiculous simplifying assumptions :)
moritz PerlJam: that's because the real world is too complicated to approach it without such simplifications... and it often turns out that even the ridicolous simplifications can be quite useful 14:26
tadzik moritz: yeah, that exam was mainly mechanics. I don't know the english equivalent names though. Dynamics? The changing mass? Vibrations, as in E = 0.5 * kx^2, this kind of stuff 14:28
PerlJam I don't need proselytizing :)
tadzik I don't think that last one is about vibrations
phenny: "drgania"?
phenny tadzik: "Vibration" (pl to en, translate.google.com)
tadzik or maybe
anyway, it went quite well 14:29
coming soon: magnetism, electostatic stuff, Faradays, Gausses etc

moritz and did you install it?
jaffa4 ran two installers
moritz what two installers?
jaffa4 for parrot and rakudo, into the same directory
moritz be specific please 16:13
and how did you generate the .pbc?
jaffa4 setup-parrot-3.2.0.exe 16:14
setup-parrot-3.2.0.exe-raukdo-39.exe

now do you know everything, moritz?
moritz jaffa4: of course I don't know everything 16:16
jaffa4 do you have all information what you need now?
moritz I just tried the equivalent on linux, and it works there
jaffa4 same flags?
PerlJam jaffa4: What directory are you in when you execute the line that's giving your grief? 16:18
s/your/you/
moritz no, i left out all the options to parrot except -o
jaffa4 in c:\parrot-3.2.0\bin 16:19
moritz and it works for me outside of the install location too 16:20
PerlJam yeah. I dunno
perhaps the windows installer didn't install everything?
jaffa4 possible 16:21
WHat is a compiler module?
How can I recognise it?
WHat is its extension?
16:23 risou joined
moritz I guess it's just a .pbc file named languages/$lang/$lang.pbc in the parrot installation 16:23
PerlJam jaffa4: does it work if you run it from whatever directory has the perl6.pbc file? 16:24
jaffa4 no, it does not. 16:26
ok, I am rebuilding it from the source 16:30

unless you're using modules
"output" = the .exe and .dll files 17:34
jaffa4 ok
sorear they get overwritten when you run niecza, so if you want to compile an app, you need to save them

sorear to really benefit from MMD, niecza will need roles and the numeric type ladder soon 18:01
moritz i guess that the lack of Int type prevents most MMD tests in the spectest suite to run 18:02

DWSR Is P6 production ready? 18:06
moritz "no", for most values of "production" 18:07
DWSR Cool.
iirc, 6 is supposed to be getting some OO enhancements, right?
For some reason, the site is not working for me. 18:08
So I figured I'd ask here
moritz which one? perl6.org?
yes, perl 6 has a pretty cool object model, and rakudo implements rather big parts of it
it does classes, roles, parametric roles, introspection, class construction through the metaclass 18:09
DWSR Huzzah

flussence_ hold altgr+shift, press the =/+ key, press a 19:23
sorear does nothing in en_US :( 19:24
flussence_ maybe it's a case of different keyboard layouts' code written by different people... 19:25
tadzik sorear: yeah 19:26
AltGr with + is × for me 19:27
I just hold AltGr, then press a
sorear tadzik: the paths for backtraces are compiled in at compile time, so it's telling you where I had STD.pm6 when I generated niecza-4.zip
tadzik sorear: what happens if you do `setxkbmap pl` before? 19:28
sorear: I see
sorear whee, 'LC_ALL=pl_PL' breaks niecza
flussence_ even more annoying is that gtk has ctrl+shift+u, urxvt has something that I can't figure out but seems to be an extension, and Qt apparently assigns unused altgr combinations randomly.
sorear: thousand/decimal separator bug? 19:29
sorear flussence_: yeah tadzik's been having decimal separator issues
I can now reproduce it
flussence_: (urxvt) hold down control-shift and type, say, 3080 19:30
tadzik flussence_: yeah, I don't know if it's possible to use emacs-style keyboard shortcuts in Qt 19:31
sorear: oh, ideograms 19:32
pmurias sorear: when manipulating nam if i want to change foo(bar()) into tmp=bar() and foo(tmp) i should use let? 19:35
sorear yes 19:36
19:36 mkramer left
sorear for hoopl it would probably be better to turn nam into register code in the parser 19:36
hoopl looks like it's really designed for register/SSA code
the fact that nam uses tree code is mostly because it's very hard to convert SSA into compact code for stack machines like the JVM and CLR 19:37
pmurias by parser you mean the niecza-hoopl loader or part of niecza? 19:38
sorear: i'm converting the tree form into register form as the tree form seems hard to do optimalisations on 19:40
i won't do SSA as it was invented in opposition to dataflow analysis 19:41
19:41 stkowski joined
pmurias and it's mainly usefull for doing simple optimalisations fast (like a C compiler would do) 19:41

pmurias so using locals a lot would just mean the bytecode would be bigger? 20:33
sorear I think so, but it depends on how good your spiller is 20:34
the CLRBackend spiller actually reorders code in some cases to improve spill quality, it's a rather large win

TimToady at most, I think locale-based computing should be restricted to scopes that declare "use locale" 21:27
moritz ... and that doesn't need to be a core pragma :-)
flussence_ there's no shortage of external libs to format numbers, and they usually come with language translation stuff since it's not much use doing it halfway.
core stuff should do machine-readable output for that reason 21:28
TimToady note also that "123 456,78" is TTIAR :) 21:29
