timotimo i think i was missing a my.
00:01 MikeFair left
timotimo well, i know i was missing a my, but it seems like that caused the slowdown 00:02
oh, it may very well have been my levenshtein code that took uber long to find something?
i mean the setting is quite huge
probably has an insane amount of blocks 00:03

timotimo i should really see to it that it aborts quicker. 00:11
good thing people don't seem to use rakudo overnight dP 00:13

at least not such fresh rakudos

timotimo levenshtein slowed down compilation immensely. tge "abort search" return value was not being honored 01:36
sloeed it down when there was an error only, of course
now I'm commuting and i really want to continue working 01:37
hacking rakudo is very pleasant once you know what goes where

timotimo i'm hopelessly confused. when i throw a X::Undeclared during compilation, the program justcontinues on (apparently forever), using up one full cpu core. what might i be doing wrong? 02:45
sorear If you want it to use both CPU cores, you'll need to run more than one instance of Rakudo, perhaps using make -j 02:46
timotimo haha 02:47
it would be splendid to use more than one core to compile CORE.setting

swarley Can I use recursion in a token definition like this? pastebin.com/2k2P8uSU 03:56
Oh, wait that's probably not what I want
Never mind.
TimToady recursion is fine if you make progress 03:57
swarley Well looking at it again, it would match \\\\\\\\\\u0013
TimToady nodnod 04:01
swarley Also, I have a question about the behavior of this (it's in the skeleton generated from mk_language) 04:02
proto token quote { <...> }
token quote:sym<'> { <?[']> <quote_EXPR: ':q'> }
Does that call an action as well?
Or, can it be made to?
Actually, I'm more confused about the syntax in general 04:04
TimToady one can supply a class that, if it has the same method name, provides the action for that method 04:06
in smaller parser, one generally just embeds the action in a block
<...> is obsolescent though; nowadays one would just use a body of {*}
swarley It seems as if it's also using an internal default lexical pattern to match against the strings. Since that doesn't appear to be much of a regular expression. 04:08
04:09 autumn joined
TimToady there's a method quote_EXPR somewhere, probably 04:09
autumn and I here am
TimToady a little early this year, aren't'cha?
swarley Ah. I would use it, I'm just concerned as to whether or not it would allow for all of the things ruby allows for within its strings. I suppose I'll have to write my own methods to handle them. 04:10
I just wanted to see if I was doing more work than was necessary.
TimToady I don't know much about rakudo quote parsing, having only done it STD's way
autumn ah I would like to know the identity of the person who thought it brilliant to abbreviate 'standard' to 'STD' 04:11
swarley I might look in it to see, I would look at ruby's source, but it doesn't use a lexer actually. It has a specially coded lexer so it's not very easy to tell what it's doing actually. 04:12
Very cryptic code. All of it being embedded within parser.y
TimToady autumn: that would be me :)
autumn swarley: hi.
swarley hi.
TimToady it's not just a pun on venereal diseases, of course, but also STDOUT and such 04:13
autumn TimToady: I mean the general usage q: 04:14
not merely within Perl's domain
TimToady oh, well, back in the day, compilers tended to be limited to, like, six character identifiers, so some of the, er, standard abbreviations stuck around 04:15
timotimo because holding on to old things is always good! :)
swarley I feel that turning this collection of tokens into a full grammar is going to be a week of pain for me. 04:16
timotimo compiles and spectests his branch again, then pullrequests and then finally goes to bed
swarley doesn't have $250 to pay for the ISO specification that has the exact grammar definition
timotimo going to be able to close one more ticket :D
er, i already clicked "send pull request", so the "it also passes the spectests!" in it is ... "optimistical"/"a lie" 04:17
sorear swarley: which ISO spec do you want?
swarley Ruby's ISO. 04:18
timotimo TimToady: did you see rakudo got a few nicer error messages than STD does? :)
sorear ah, not one I have :/
swarley There was a draft available for a while, but the server is locked now
sorear you should check other standards organisations.
timotimo swarley: how about visiting a nearby university library or something? i've seen ISO folders in ours (locked behind glass doors, of course)
TimToady timotimo: STD was meant primarily to be a good example (except where it's a bad example...)
sorear ECMA has mirrors of quite a few ISO and ANSI documents
and the mirrors are often free when then originals aren't 04:19
swarley Hm, that might be a good idea.
Because www.iso.org/iso/home/store/catalogu...mber=59579 is quite ridiculous
Nothing on ECMA 04:21
As far as I can tell.

[Coke] timotimo++ # again; this is very awesome. 07:32
the . means "don't capture" 07:33
<term> is the perl6 rule for a term identifier.
swarley Oh, what is a term identifier? 07:34
Actually, I see term redefined in this file
What is a \h escape?
[Coke] ah, I assumed term was a builtin. if you have a method/regex/rule for term locally, it's that, sure. 07:35
\h is horizontal whitespace.

FROGGS jnthn: yes, I always checkout the revision given by rakudo/tools/...
moritz so no need to bisect nqp?
jnthn Last night's round of changes extended the repr API

FROGGS well, I dont mind if I had to travel a bit, but if ppl will come by plain, it would be crap for them if we would do it in Leipzig or so
jnthn Late Feb is probably workable here. 11:16
moritz like, 18th or 25th?
tadzik 25 more like
(for me
jnthn 256h is far better
tadzik or maybe 23-24? 11:17
jnthn We have a speaking tour at $dayjob 20th-22nd
Su-Shee FROGGS: from where what?
tadzik duh
moritz tadzik: weekend would be much more workable for me
FROGGS Su-Shee: where do you live? (if you are interesting to come to a p6hackaton)
tadzik moritz: yeah, same here
jnthn Which'll tie myself and masak up. But I could probably fly to Germany on 22nd evening.
tadzik studying full time and working half time doesn't favour the middle of the week :)
moritz oh dammit, I was looking at the calendar for 2012 11:19
Su-Shee FROGGS: Berlin, Germany.
moritz good morning moritz, it's 2013 now!
tadzik good moritz morning :)
Su-Shee seems the wife cake didn't really help the brain.. ;)
moritz Su-Shee: it's no therapeutic cake :-) 11:20
Su-Shee EVERYTHING WITH CHOCOLATE IS THERAPEUTIC :)
FROGGS even the counselor on the enterprise eats chocolate for that reason 11:21
Su-Shee exactly. 11:22
tadzik Troi?
FROGGS right
Su-Shee tadzik: yes.
FROGGS jnthn / masak: to what city do you fly to cheapest? 11:23
if Berlin would be an option... would be cool
Nuremberg is a bit off though ó.ò
Su-Shee tadzik: there's a scene where she order something like a triple whatever chocolate icecram with chocolate sauce etc etc and the replicator answers "this doesn't confirm to the starfleet standard health whatever" - I'm waitin when this happens in supermarkets :)
tadzik yay, I understand Star Trek references :) 11:24
Su-Shee FROGGS: generally when it comes to flying the best option in germany is frankfurt.
FROGGS Su-Shee: she asked it to make a real chocolate ice-cream thingy
_real_
tadzik Su-Shee: ha-ha
eh, that looks a bit ironic. It's not :)
moritz eeks. I just looked into my calendar, and I have small teeth surgery on Feb 21st 11:25
and it's not clear how well I'll be on the weekend afterwards :(
FROGGS eeks, indeed
tadzik :(
Su-Shee q: I'm hungry and in a bad mood. data: I've observed that counsellor troi eats chocolate icecream when she is in a bad mood. q: I take 5. :)
FROGGS Q ordered 10 11:26
Su-Shee FROGGS: *sigh* yes, that was totally the point.. he ordered 1
10
FROGGS "I never ate, I am very hungry"
tadzik q, like the shapeshifter guy?
playing games etc? 11:27
Su-Shee tadzik: the shapeshifter guy is Odo in DS9. Q is the omnipotent being in TNG
tadzik yeah, TNG
well, the clotheshifter then :)
FROGGS Q is even not his name, all of them are Q
hehe, ya
Su-Shee tadzik: man, get an education ;)

so what's with the interpreter giving null pmc access in get_string messages when using the repl and encountering an error? (any error? compile-time errors only?) 15:16
jnthn timotimo: I don't know; would be good to track that one down.
timotimo when i start perl6 with --ll-exception and do that, it doesn't show a traceback :(
so, a whole bunch of debug say statements? :|
jnthn Or see if it can be made to show such things with --ll-exception set... 15:17
timotimo the -t parameter to perl6 is woefully useless (it doesn't actually do anything whatsoever) 15:18

anyway, I'll try to fill it as accurately as I can :)
moritz ++tadzik :-) 15:23
timotimo oh
trace does work, but the error happens much too early
could have realized that earlier.
moritz ah, forgot to hilight Su-Shee for doodle.com/4f2ua4n3mdfir2re 15:24
Su-Shee what? 15:25
Now I see green ;) 15:26
tadzik moritz: okay, I marked the dates that are probably fine :)
I hope nothing pops out 15:27
now I'm excited :) 15:28
moritz should implement a doodle (subset) clone in Perl 6 15:29
timotimo i can get lots of traces when i try eval('class A is A { }');, but i get Nil as return value and $! is Any() 15:31
echo 'class A is A { };' | perl6 --target=parse -> Could not locate compile-time value for symbol StaticLexPad <- could this perhaps be the error that's thrown and then error reporting fails for some unknown reason? 15:34

jnthn gets null PMC access in teh REPL for that

masak this feels a little familiar...
timotimo indirect self-inherit should throw, too, right?
moritz I guess 'class A is B { }' should die with "Cannot inherit from a stubbed class"
timotimo: right
jnthn Yeah, we should ban inheriting from as stubbed class. It makes at least one RT ticket go away. 15:39
*a
Allowing it and making it behave well is...icky.
moritz jnthn: in world, how do I check if something a symbol is stubbed? 15:40
(or in the actions, or whatever)
jnthn Probably should be checked in the MOP
In add_parent
Can check .is_composed
moritz that's where it's hard to throw typed exceptions right now :(
that will also forbid class A { class B is A { } } 15:41
jnthn True.
moritz (which is a good thing, IMHO :-)
jnthn But I don't think that works today either. 15:42
It'll suffer exactly the same problem.
Better to forbid it now and liberalize later if we find a sane way, than give people weird errors. 15:43
masak aye.
moritz spectests a patch 15:45
timotimo hm, the repl loses $! in between lines. that's a bit annoying 15:46
well, that makes some kind of sense since the lines are supposed to be full "things" anyway 15:53
so, since jnthn could just create rakudo::debugger without touching any of the backend, one would be able to build a truly great REPL in the same way, right?
if there was a binding from nqp to zeromq, i could try to hook up the ipython frontends (notebook, qtconsole, terminal console) with perl6. that might be neat. 15:54
jnthn timotimo: You can probably explore building an alternative REPL outside of Rakudo/NQP using a similar approach. 15:56
The debugger actually leaves the repl in place
timotimo the qtconsole uses pygments to highlight-as-you-type, so we could use hoelzro++ 's work for making that beautiful, too :D
what do you mean with "outside of Rakudo/NQP"? you mean just leave a simple stdin/stdout based protocol in place and hook that up to ipythons zeromq protocol in a higher level languane (like python)? 15:57
15:58 stevan_ left
jnthn timotimo: I mean, without modifying NQP and Rakudo themselves. 15:58
timotimo: Like I did with the debugger
timotimo oh. yeah sure 15:59
is your source code a good read to figure that out?
15:59 vividsnow joined
moritz jnthn: meh. BOOTSTRAP.pm doesn't compose the classes it later inherits from 15:59
jnthn I'm not sure about "good", but it's the only thing doing such tricks...
timotimo right, i'll have a look then :)
jnthn moritz: ah, dang
moritz jnthn: which is why you don't have to write 'augment' in the setting 16:00
jnthn moritz: Yeah, and we need it to leave them open. Grr.
Right.
moritz jnthn: so maybe a named param to add_parent that skips the check?
jnthn moritz: That could work.
:force :)
moritz that was my first though too
then I thought that :allow_open might be clearer 16:01
16:01 SunilJoshi joined, b1rkh0ff joined
jnthn True 16:01
timotimo jnthn: that actually looks somewhat simple (only looking at the main script right now, though) 16:02
you wrote the debugger CLI in perl6, so maybe a zavolaj/inline::c binding to zeromq could fit the deal nicely, too :) 16:04
16:10 bluescreen10 joined
moritz jnthn: next bootstrappy problem: native types (declared in the setting, but before Int/Str/Num are composed) 16:10
maybe I should move them to BOOTSTRAP.pm too?
jnthn moritz: Maybe, or maybe in the trait_mod check if the current setting is NULL (meaning we're compiling the setting) and pass the allow open flag if so 16:20
timotimo the ipython zeromq protocol already has a "language" field in the kernel information package :D 16:21
16:25 bluescreen10 left 16:27 stevan_ joined 16:35 stevan_ left 16:46 stevan_ joined
timotimo so, one important/nice part of the ipython protocol is that a string of code can be sent with the request "is this complete code or should I (the frontend) offer another line of input?". is this doable in perl6 without too much pain? 16:49
jnthn timotimo: STD specifies a mechanism for that; we've not yet ported it. 16:50
Doing that would allow improving the built-in REPL too ;) 16:51
timotimo can you give an estimate in "newbie-hours"? ;) 16:52
jnthn timotimo: You may wish to do the extension in NQP first. I'd say allow an hour or so to understand what's going on in STD, similar to study the REPL code as it exists today, probably a few hours to get it working in NQP land (note that it's HLL::Compiler that needs the changes so it's easiest to get it done in NQP first), then probably not too long to get Rakudo also updated for it since it should be very similar grammar addition. 16:56
arnsholt clones NQP onto new work laptop 16:58
16:59 rurban1 joined
timotimo phew. 16:59
i wonder if i should start with that, or with binding zeromq, or with building a Compiler that exposes the necessary interface so that a kernel for ipy-zeromq can be built. 17:00
jnthn timotimo: Well, if you do this change you make the built-in REPL immediately better ;)
arnsholt perks up
timotimo: What were your plans for ZMQ bindings?
timotimo arnsholt: this is all still in theoryland. i'd like to bind as much as ZMQ as needed to create an ipython kernel 17:02
arnsholt ipython kernel? 17:03
timotimo yes, ipython has made a split between kernel ("the python interpreter") and frontend ("where the user types and gets output, completions and errors")
they are connected via zeromq. if the (rather simple) interface for the kernel is built for rakudo, we'll immediately get support for the ipython notebook (web-app similar to wolfram mathematica and friends), the ipython qtconsole (highlight-as-you-type, embedded images and plots) and the ipython console terminal 17:04
arnsholt Ooooh, that'd be decidedly shiny 17:05
timotimo what's going on with modules.perl.org? it only seems to load the first few kilobytes or something
17:05 p6eval left
arnsholt ZeroMQ bindings via Zavolaj has been on my TODO list for a while, FWIW 17:05

arnsholt But if you'd be interested in hacking on it, that would be motivation to keep tweaking it =)

hmm, I guess cherry-pick --no-commit didn't work out quite as I expected... 18:11
masak seems --no-commit stages the changes from the commit of your choice. 18:15
so if you then make a commit, then it's your commit. 18:16
hm, maybe commit --amend would've kept around the original author, I dunno.
jnthn Yeah, I was expecting it to set everything up as a normal cherry-pick and give me a chance to twiddle.
masak checks
18:16 huf left
jnthn The way it does when you get a conflict and have to resolve it. 18:16
arnsholt I think commit --amend replaces the author and email
masak ok. 18:17
jnthn: you probably could've gotten that effect with a well-placed rebase operation.
arnsholt At least, IIRC, that's what git says you should do if you've not set name and email in the config file

masak r: my $dt = DateTime.new("2012-02-27T03:14:15Z"); my $d = $dt.Date; $d++ for ^3; say DateTime.new($d, hour => $dt.hour, minute => $dt.minute, second => $dt.second, timezone => $dt.timezone)
p6eval rakudo 35b2a9: OUTPUT«Default constructor only takes named arguments␤ in method new at src/gen/CORE.setting:725␤ in block at /tmp/kVXM9057m_:1␤␤»
masak hrm. 23:33
oh!
r: my $dt = DateTime.new("2012-02-27T03:14:15Z"); my $date = $dt.Date; $date++ for ^3; say DateTime.new(:$date, hour => $dt.hour, minute => $dt.minute, second => $dt.second, timezone => $dt.timezone)
p6eval rakudo 35b2a9: OUTPUT«DateTime.new(year => 2012, month => 3, day => 1, hour => 3, minute => 14, second => 15)␤»
masak this is the simplest way I can think of. 23:34
feels like we're missing a building-block here.
lue I wonder how acceptable the idea of "Duration literals" would be (e.g. $dt += 3d;)
masak I like the idea of durations, but don't feel the need to make them literals.
not in straight-up Perl 6, at least.
23:35 sevin joined
FROGGS $dt.days += 3 ? 23:35
masak DateTime is immutable.
timotimo wow, a perl6 process just went berserk and made my desktop swap like 3gb of data out to disk
masak and that's not really what I want to do anyway.
I want to safely say "three days later" without having to work with days and months and years.
that's what Date gives me there.
lue $dt + " 23:36
$dt + "3 days" is what I was thinking
masak that one has two problems. 23:38
first, infix:<+> is for numeric addition, nothing else.
second, adding a string like that just looks... weird, and too much like magic.
lue I didn't mean the string literally :) 23:39
masak I like the *intent* behind that, and I'd be happy seeing something about as simple as that.
benabik would prefer $dt + Duration.new(:days(3))
timotimo no! no! bad rakudo!
masak yeah.
benabik: something like that.
benabik If you're doing that a lot, then make shortcuts like days(3).
masak and maybe a shortcut $dt.delta(:days(3))
benabik masak: Ooh.
masak we have to pay close attention to what order to add years, months, days, etc.
I seem to recall DateTime on CPAN did something bad there, and couldn't back out of the decision. 23:40
we could do it right.
but tonight is not the night to design all that. I will sleep on it.
'night, #perl6
lue good knight masak o/
FROGGS I have never seen something wrong in Perl 5's DateTime
timotimo how does rakudo even get so much memory allocated so quickly?! 23:41
what does it put into all that merory?!
i should really, really set a better ulimit >_<
benabik somewhat likes C++11's std::chrono
lue (Of course, these shortcuts are hopefully overrideable for different calendar modules.)
lue notes to look at std::chrono
timotimo: ooc, what are you running (anything like CORE.setting?) 23:42
jnthn sleep time &
timotimo lue: as far as i know i'm just running "perl6"
lue good knight jnthn o/
FROGGS gnight
timotimo good night jnthn :)
23:42 FROGGS left
timotimo lue: Popen("perl6", stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE). what exactly happens after that i'm not sure. actually this process should have been dead by now! 23:43
lue what language are you using? (And also, what's coming through the pipe)

23:51 MikeFair_ joined
lue Hm. Can't say I know what's going on. I'm assuming the right half is what's in the pipe, right? (because `echo say 3 | perl6` runs say 3 in perl6, and that doesn't look like Perl 6) 23:52
timotimo that's what goes over the zeromq connections 23:55
