colomon :(\ 00:03
japhb Three bugs there, I think.
colomon three?
oh
yow
colomon hopes they are not his fault 00:04
\
japhb rakudo-jvm always wrong, r-p wrong for .1f, and failure to drop trailing . when no remaining after-. digits
Free karma to the person who turns that into spec tests, double if they actually fix at least the r-p .1f bug, triple if they fix all of them. I'm feeling expansive tonight. ;-) 00:05
colomon shouldn't first one be 2?
japhb Yeah, that's four bugs.
Sheesh.
colomon basically, it's just complete fail 00:06
japhb Sadly, yes, I think so.
:-(
colomon does sprintf fo the same thing
japhb Hadn't tried it. Just had golfed a fail in a larger problem down to that. 00:07
s/problem/program/; Well, I guess that depends on how you look at it.
colomon oh
Niecza's results:
1.969000
2.0
1.97
1.969
japhb Interesting. And much better. 00:07
colomon not sure if that's a niecza bug on the first or not. 00:08
japhb Though that first one is indeed odd, at least it's not complete fail.
I would think .0 should mean no decimals just like in sprintf, though.

japhb That was a way LTA error message, BTW.
I pretty much solved it with a WAG.
Looks like rakudo does the same thing with .fmt and with &sprintf
colomon probably .fmt just calls sprintf
okay, I'm going to add sprintf tests 00:12
japhb_ Thank you, colomon++! 00:13

colomon TimToady: it's just using op= that breaks it
TimToady why should op= care whether op is unicode? 02:16
colomon it doesn't, (|)= doesn't work either
TimToady (well, it's all unicode, but non-ascii)
is rakudo not implement op= as a meta-operator?
*menting

04:19
lue I have to say, what I wrote wasn't at all impressive, but I already felt the power of Moar Unicode in Perl 6 :) 04:20
TimToady :) 04:21
lue TimToady: would it make sense for chr and chrs to return Uni objects, seeing as there's no telling what NF the numbers are in? Or would auto-conversion to NFG actually be appreciated? 04:23
(my thinking is that people with a specific list of codepoints would like to preserve that, even after conversion to a string-like object.) 04:26
japhb lue: FWIW, that thinking makes sense to me 04:27
lue It has a bonus of discouraging people from trying to feed a Str-making function negative numbers, because it won't be generating a Str in the first place. 04:29
TimToady can't see anything wrong with doing it that way offhand 04:35
dalek ecs: db99244 | lue++ | S15-unicode.pod:
[S15] Change .chr(s) to return Uni, not Str.

This is because Uni is the only string type that won't convert strings given to it, which for people who are playing with numeric arrays of codepoints is probably important.
04:38
lue gets the sense that he'll find himself reading the Unicode standard, the whole thing, in the near future :) . 04:43
I also wouldn't be surprised if, in the next couple of months, I finally send in the CLA and end up doing most of the implementation work on S15 :) . 04:46
japhb The whole Unicode standard? That's ... a lot. 04:48
lue japhb: I didn't say I'd read it *quickly* :) . 04:51
japhb lue: Well, you have to read it faster than they produce more of it, or you'll never get done. :-) 04:51
lue japhb: The Standard is good about not making drastic or previous-knowledge-deprecating changes most of the time. So at least that. 04:53

timotimo suspects something messing with a qast node that's shared, and so distributes some nqp::clone calls throughout the code ... >_< 09:57
diakopter QASHARED 09:58
timotimo QASH? :) 09:59
is pm working on a more efficient hash implementation perchance?

10:08
lizmat need to go out just about now: if I get back tonight and there is still no advent blog post, I'll move mine up to today 10:09
jnthn Morning-ish, #perl6 10:20
preflex jnthn: you have 1 new message. '/msg preflex messages' to read it.
jnthn japhb: Looks so...will update it...
lizmat: It's my turn today. I'll be working on it shortly. :) 10:21
jnthn maybe should sign up for the day *after* the one he'll have time to write posts, just to prevent panic. ;) 10:22
timotimo if it's acceptable to deliver the blog post for a day *on* the day of the post, i won't have to ask for mine to be moved a day back! :) 10:23
bleeeeh, where is that "Unknown QAST node type NQPMu" coming from >:( 10:24
something where $thing.HOW.name($thing) returns NQPMu, but ... what?! 10:25
timotimo hopes for a better error message on jvm
FROGGS hi jnthn 10:26
jnthn timotimo: Well, I suspect the answer may be to make NQP's error detection more robust...dunno how hard that'll be. :)
o/ FROGGS
timotimo No such method 'jast' for invocant of type 'NQPMu' d'ohpe 10:28
jnthn Does looking at the --target=ast output not show something up 10:30
?
timotimo no :( 10:36
let me paste you a bit
FROGGS someone wanna port a core module? :o) github.com/rakudo-p5/v5/blob/maste...modules.md 10:37
timotimo gist.github.com/timo/fac77c791de77a5dab79
port? are these written in C? 10:38
FROGGS timotimo: don't think so 10:39
at least, the majority should be written in perl 10:40
timotimo can't you just compile them with v5 then?
FROGGS timotimo: btw, is your gist complete?
timotimo that's all the output there is
FROGGS timotimo: I just need to provide their api, how I/someone does that is up to that someone 10:40
timotimo ah, ok
jnthn timotimo: The chain at 65 looks suspect 10:42
It only has one child
But a chain needs two
timotimo oh!
how did i overlook that? >_>
thanks
jnthn Well, maybe let's improve the error too :)
FROGGS yeah, that probably is it
timotimo sure, the op "chain" needs to complain if the number of arguments is <= 1 10:43
right?
FROGGS I think the weird "cannot call .jast" might be fixed
because sometimes it takes ages to figure out what is wrong 10:44
jnthn: btw, have you seen the msg in #moarvm? could this one be related to our exploding frame? 10:45
jnthn FROGGS: Maybe. 10:47

the problematic thing was the heartbeat that was supposed to run in parallel
for now, the blasted chained_whatevercall work is keeping me sufficiently busy :P
arnsholt Yeah, I remember the heartbeat being a problem 11:07
timotimo (which is funny, because i recently saw a cardiologist about my own heartbeat)

fix whatever currying for chain ops

When a WhateverCode gets created from a chain op, it'll be annotated with its original arguments and when a WhateverCode with a chain op ends up calling a WhateverCode that also had a chain in it, it will "flatten out" the arguments of that WhateverCode, creating a proper chain.

This fixes WhateverCode generation when chain ops are involved.
timotimo does a little dance to celebrate 11:41
jnthn timotimo: Can you give me a quick summary of what you just fixed? :) 11:44
timotimo what was wrong or how i fixed it?
jnthn What was wrong
timotimo sure
Whatever currying would find, that the "* < 5" part of "1 < * < 5" was a WhateverCode and would emit a call to the code object 11:45
however, for chain to properly function, it had to be inlined
so i had to turn -> $outer { 1 < (-> $inner { $inner < 5 })($outer) } 11:46
into -> $outer { 1 < $outer < 5 }
(actually, i think the comparison operators are left-assoc) 11:47
(but you get the idea)
i think this warrants an entry into the changelog? :)
wowza. this dumb benchmark i made for the benefits of inlining WhateverCode into ifs (like when 10 < * < 20) would give a speed improvement of 2x 11:50
timotimo i should find out how inline_info works 11:50
jnthn timotimo: Yes, worth a mention 11:53
timotimo: And glad this is fixed. :)
timotimo wow, add_inlining_info_if_possible is pretty useful for this! :)
it will even help in all other cases, not just when a chain is involved 11:54
jnthn Well, something needs to make use of the info too
So we're careful where we put it. :)
timotimo the optimizer already tries to
at least i hope so.
jnthn Oh :)
Then it's worth it :)
Well, don't assume...check :)
timotimo i'll see if it makes a difference and if not i'll look into why the optimizer doesn't
i'll be afk for a bit first. 11:55
(and let the test run in the background)
jnthn For example, inlining methods isn't something we can do at compile time, and so best left to runtime.
So no point sticking inline info onto those.
colomon timotimo++ 12:04
timotimo Null PMC access in find_method('add_inlining_info_if_possible') ... ?!?! 12:14
oooh!
whatever_curry is a sub
timotimo i wonder how close it'll get to the $_-based solution after inlining 12:19
timotimo apparently the inlining info wasn't used 12:23
maybe it's because i'm operating on the result of block_closure(reference_to_code_object($code, $block)), whereas i should be working on... maybe just the inner part? 12:25
timotimo maybe it's something for jnthn to look at. he should know how that's supposed to work :P 12:40
timotimo adds lots of debug prints :D 12:46

jnthn That ain't right either... 14:10
timotimo yeah, we are whatever_currying that it seems 14:13
m)
colomon whatever_currying is when you can't decide between red or green, right? 14:21
timotimo i think that's actually junctions 14:31
i can't seem to get the inlining info to work properly so far
arnsholt Whatever code is what you get when a whatever is part of a larger expression 14:33
jnthn timotimo: What are you trying to inline?
moritz tries to inline the inliner 14:34
timotimo i'm trying to add inlining info to all WhateverCode objects 14:36
timotimo (by first providing an anonymous role that provides an inline_info sub to the WhateverCode and then calling add_inlining_info_if_possible from whatever_curry 14:38
jnthn Yes, but why do you want to do that? 14:38
When will we ever have opportunity to use that info?
timotimo given $foo { when 10 < * < 20 { ... } } 14:39
(hopefully)
jnthn OK, but you don't need inline info for that.
timotimo right; but that mechanism was already in place :) 14:40
well, mostly
but i just found a flaw in my benchmark, i think
jnthn inline_info mostly exists to enable cross-compilation unit inlining.
timotimo oh?
jnthn It's overkill for such local things.
timotimo i did not know that
jnthn Yeah, it's there so we can have operators declared in the setting inlined, for example. 14:41
timotimo so, is there a simpler method of doing what i want to achieve, except for using the info i already use to inline WhateverCode inside WhateverCode?
jnthn Well, all inline_info does is persist AST
And you already have the AST to hand... 14:42
timotimo mhm
say, could it be that we don't have to have a block_closure for our whatever_curry?
jnthn Typically you need it to be a closure. 14:43
timotimo i'm guessing block_closure does the Op( clone, BVal )
okay
jnthn @x.map: $a + *
It matters which $a
timotimo right
i don't know exactly how to make that work properly with inlining, then 14:44
jnthn Needs analysis 14:45
timotimo writes a changelog entry for the feature
jnthn It's probably not easy to do at the moment
timotimo that's fine then 14:46
huh, not that many interesting commits to rakudo/nom this month so far 14:49
timotimo should the indy-work be mentioned in the changelog? 14:49
i think so; but left out of the rakudo start short changelog 14:50
jnthn Yeah, it got us a win 14:51
dalek kudo/nom: b11daf9 | (Timo Paulssen)++ | docs/ChangeLog:
A few changelog entries for this month
14:52
timotimo jnthn: you get a $p = promise, then a $v = $p.vow and call break/keep on the original $p then? 15:06
or is that a typo?
jnthn typo 15:07
Fixed, thanks 15:08
timotimo yw
is there a reason you're not showing AsyncFile.slurp here? 15:10
well, i guess it makes 0 difference here
jnthn timotimo: Well, article wasn't menat to be an exhaustive guide :) 15:12
timotimo right :) 15:12
jeckyhl hi, had anybody experienced problems building rakudo / jvm on Windows ? I've got an error when running tools\build\create-jvm-runner.pl : on line 32, $install_to happends to be "\C:\Dev\perl6\rakudo\install\bin\perl6-j.bat" (with a backslash on the beginning) which make the next instruction fail 15:22
timotimo FROGGS: do you have an overview what exactly is missing for loop labels to work in nqp and then rakudo? 15:41
jnthn I think me reviewing the branch so far was one of the things... :)
FROGGS timotimo: there is nothing missing for using them in nqp :o) 15:46
timotimo even for jvm and moar?
FROGGS timotimo: ahh, no
that was parrot only
timotimo oke
i'm just a bit bummed out by the small amount of things i could write in the changelog for this month so far 15:47
FROGGS don't wanted to continue when the approach was maybe wrong or so (even when I don't believe I took the wrong one)
timotimo: btw, there is a sized-arrays branch that would need reviewing and merging
but I was unable to squish the 20+ commits into one, so it would be reviewable at all 15:48
timotimo oh? 15:49
i didn't know that's an operation that can fail :)
FROGGS was the first and only time I did that 15:52
(or tried to)
timotimo in the worst case, you can git diff the branch against its fork-off-point, write the diff to a file, check out the fork-off-point and apply the resulting patch with "patch -p1" 15:54
FROGGS timotimo: and how do I preserve the author? 16:03
jnthn Note that if we're doing this just to make it easier to review, it's easy to read the diff to review it and then apply the original commits... :) 16:04
jnthn So long as the branch is up to date with latest nom 16:04
FROGGS yeah, that'd work too 16:07
jnthn: I can do that in a few hours if you will have time to review this night or tomorrow 16:08
jnthn FROGGS: Yeah, I can find time to do that. 16:13
FROGGS k
timotimo FROGGS: git commit will accept --author and --commiter iirc 16:17
TimToady is supposed to be singing tenor in our Christmas musical tomorrow, and will probably be singing basso profundo instead, sigh... 17:23

jnthn TimToady: ? :)
TimToady s/rh/hr/ 17:43
jnthn oh... 17:44
Stared at it trying to spot the spello for a whole minute :/
fixed
moritz succeeded in gdb 17:48
timotimo jnthn: i'm silly. i figured out why it didn't inline the WhateverCodes for "when"; because when makes a .ACCEPTS($_) rather than a normal call
moritz erm, wc
timotimo thus, i can teach the optimizer to look at the invocant of ACCEPTS($_) if it's a WhateverCode that's annotated with the information from the whatever_curry thingie and then inline it 17:49
timotimo but i'm not entirely sure what i have to analyse to make sure i don't break closures that are necessary for correct functioning 17:50
maybe if the only vars that are inside are the arguments (the only argument) to the whatevercode object
timotimo jnthn: ^^ does that sound like the necessary analysis? 17:57
jnthn timotimo: Kinda, but we really need much more general analysis of these things 17:58
timotimo OK, it'll wait until much later then
jnthn And putting in optimizations like this that special-case it will only make it harder later.
The optimizer is already harder to maintain than I'd like.
timotimo oh no! what did i do! ;_; 17:59
jnthn Just added more things into a less-than-sustainable design. :)
It needs to grow and do more, but I think it'll need a bit of restructuring first to keep things sane. 18:00
In general, it needs a bunch of changes to start being able to track variables and their usage.
timotimo right 18:02
i once had "a" design based on hashes and stuff
TimToady knows from personal experience that it's really easy to get stuck at the wrong abstraction level 18:04
jnthn I'm also a little wary of special-casing something that I'm not sure comes up a load, or at least, I wonder if this special case actually falls out of two things
That is, ACCEPTs on a known code object with a single arg in a boolean context can be first reduced to just a call. 18:05
And then an inline falls out more naturally.
TimToady welcomes everyone back, including _ilbot 18:07
jnthn: you have $dest.last(); but I believe the current speci is $dest.close 18:11
TimToady and we don't seem to have a specced $dest.fail, which should probably be $dest.quit anyway, for consistency with supplies 18:16
I see that the current implementation has .close and .fail 18:22
so the .done is definitely fossilic
er, .last
timotimo i should finally get my simplify_before branch ready for merging 18:23
and write my advent calendar post
also, i think i need about 6 naps right now

timotimo what a huge ass-diff
TimToady FROGGS: looks like a chain thing snuck in there 19:52
FROGGS hmmm 19:53
FROGGS I just merged nom into sized-arrays branch, and made a diff 19:54
but yeah, that does not belong there
ohh well
moritz mathw: maybe the Task example from the OO chapter of the p6 book? 19:55
FROGGS maybe I really fake a diff like `git am` produces?
so I could just strip that stuff
timotimo huh, why are the spectests clean? 19:56
weren't they nonclean on my simplify_before branch recently?
well, that's cool i guess o_O
moritz FROGGS: did you try git diff nom...origin/sized-arrays (note the three dots)
TimToady doesn't see offhand where multi-dimensional shapes are handled
FROGGS moritz: no
moritz: that seems to be identical 19:57
moritz ok
might be simpler than doing the merge locally 19:58
timotimo: do we have any spectests for the chained *-curry thing? 19:59
jnthn TimToady: gist.github.com/FROGGS/50d58158001...s-diff-L26 explicitly says it doesn't yet
FROGGS: Do you understand the map thingy that's going on in gist.github.com/FROGGS/50d58158001...s-diff-L17 ? 20:00

jnthn oh, maybe it's to handle my @seasons[4, :map( * % 4 )];
FROGGS ahh, my nom missed two commits.... the chainy stuff is gone now 20:02
jnthn It looks like a fragile way to do that...
FROGGS wth is that even O.o?
timotimo moritz: yes, two todos that now pass
moritz: but this spectest run was for simplify_before, which does regex optimizations 20:03
jnthn FROGGS: See S09 for what it is, but I can see that code being at risk of exploding in various ways...
FROGGS k
jnthn It doesn't look for there being a Pair and then look if the first key is map, it just assumes... 20:05
I can see that going horribly wrong somehow
I don't understand what gist.github.com/FROGGS/50d58158001...s-diff-L61 is trying to achieve either 20:06
gist.github.com/FROGGS/50d58158001...-diff-L288 probably makes some wrong assumptions about flattening 20:09
timotimo moritz: questhub.io/realm/perl/quest/52a5f3...de150000f1 - does this seem like something that could go into the spectests? 20:10
FROGGS jnthn: the commit does not explain either github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/a9...14aa5700d3
moritz timotimo: yes
with some say() replace by ok/is calls, of course :-) 20:11
jnthn Also, this patch will slow things down, since it makes every array pay for the :map feature when relatively few will do that.

low CPU usage 21:13
low ping times
moritz has no idea 21:15
maybe cross-talk from another VM? IO?
timotimo yeah, VMs are problematic that way 21:16
isn't there some standardised protocol to tell VMs how much load their host has? 21:17
moritz though it's not usually that bad :-)
timotimo moritz: were you able to start the spectest run yet?
moritz timotimo: the nom one is t/spec/integration/error-reporting.rakudo.jvm right now
timotimo: I'll start the second one before going to bed 21:18
timotimo thanks!
i'll try a one-job-in-parallel run now, too
though today is feuerzangenbowle in my hackspace, so ... :)
%)
at least it does get past the S05 tests just fine 21:20
masak
timotimo
lizmat timotimo: those deprecations tests failing on jvm, is because backtraces fail, afaik
and that seems pretty important to me
timotimo can we todo them so that they don't show up as "not ok" on comparison runs for branches and features and stuff?
masak moritz: I remember having this issue a few weeks back, and no-one else having it then either.
moritz: maybe this laptop is simply giving up the ghost.
moritz timotimo: gist.github.com/moritz/2375e30d8c3bf35bcf04 master/nom result 21:21
masak: no, it's slow for me too
timotimo i thought fudging is for "we know this is bad and we should fix it, but don't worry, it's not *your* particular fault"
lizmat timotimo: ok, mark them as todo (or skip, I think, because they die) 21:21
timotimo perl.rakudo.jvm fails for me, too
er, it doesn't have a failure when i call it on its own. great. 21:23
masak moritz: oh! 21:26

dwarring colomon: have fixed PDF::Grammar 21:54
colomon \o/
dwarring++
dalek kudo/moar-support: 20cf1d2 | jnthn++ | src/vm/moar/ops/container.c:
Fix RakudoScalar as having non-invoking fetch.
22:09
kudo/moar-support: 2a7cd2f | jnthn++ | src/core/List.pm:
Optimization that avoids a Rakudo Moar bug.

Doing $some_int == Inf ends up coercing $some_int and re-dispatching, which we can avoid much more quickly with a type check for the very common case of passing an integer to gimme. This helps all backends, but also avoids a Moar bug; hopefully sanity tests will show it up in a clearer way.
dalek kudo/moar-support: df50def | jnthn++ | src/core/Version.pm:
Disable version object construction on Moar.

Gets in the way of running any sanity tests. Can get it back in place later.
22:36
pmurias PDF::Grammar is a grammar for pdfs? 22:54
woolfy jnthn++ for nice perl 6 advent blog. 22:55
Looking forward to the Day 15 Perl 6 Advent Blog (which I hope will appear any moment now) 22:56
masak oh, seems it's my turn tomorrow...
woolfy I thought it would be every day around 23:00... which was 56 minutes ago... 22:57
webchat_masak grumbles over feather's non-responsiveness 23:00
woolfy: I would have had a post ready by now, but I missed that I'm on for tomorrow, and not Monday...
lue hello webchat_masak o/
webchat_masak I'll draft a post now, go to bed, and then publish it first thing in the morning.
woolfy masak... :-) (was I subtle enough to get you to work?) 23:01
webchat_masak yeah, writing it now.
woolfy masak++
webchat_masak though I actually independently checked the schedule, curious who was on for tomorrow...
woolfy resulting in? 23:02
webchat_masak mild surprise, and a decision not to go to bed yet.
woolfy hehe
lizmat tried me to write a blog for the advent, and I really have not enough Perl 6 knowledge to do so. It would be a social thing, like something about Tuits, or Fosdem, or how I enjoyed seeing Perl 6 people perform at a hackathon, a workshop or a YAPC. 23:03
And I am so not going to write something egotistical like that! 23:04
webchat_masak woolfy: maybe you should write a few Perl 6 programs ;) 23:05
woolfy masak: Maybe. Probably not a good idea. Would be bad for the reputation of Perl 6. :-)
raydiak apparently I dodged a bullet...I almost wrote my advent post about something social :) 23:10
webchat_masak woolfy: you keep underselling yourself :)
woolfy: I for one would love to see some woolfy Perl 6 code. 23:11
colomon woolfy! woolfy! woolfy!
dwarring have my stocking filler ready
woolfy webchat_masak: indeed. But I know myself as a programmer. I did nice scripts in the 90's, but mostly worked as a manager, marketeer, project manager, account manager, human resource manager... I hired people that really were good programmers and tought them Perl. Perl 5. 23:12
webchat_masak woolfy: sounds good enough to me. 23:13
woolfy: I would also have been a recovering Perl 5 programmer, if only I had discovered Perl 6 later and Perl 5 sooner :P
lue only picked P6 because trying to use a Qt module without knowing P5's classes discourages you :) 23:15
woolfy Let me do the tuits, the leaflets and the other simple marketing stuff and I leave the programming to you, lizmat, jnthn, TimToady, pmichaud, colomon, timotimo, moritz, lue, FROGGS, sorear, tadzik, and everybody else that does real programming. 23:16
oO(was not meant to exclude people, you all are heroes!) 23:17
dwarring didn't pick Perl6 - just started doing advent exercises last year and hasn't stopped yet
woolfy dwarring++
webchat_masak dwarring++
I didn't even know we had advent exercises :)
dwarring neither did I - just started playing with the code 23:19
then tired something on my own own on day 25
I followed previous calendars 23:21
diference last year was I kept going afterwards 23:22
woolfy again, dwarring++ 23:23
By the way, this advent of yesterday perl6advent.wordpress.com/2013/12/1...kudo-star/ is very useful for marketing purposes.
It's one of the most asked questions / snide remarks given... when is it christmas / is Perl 6 ready yet. This blog is helpful in answering those. 23:24
Coke++
lue
.oO(JSON::Tiny's roundtrip test has a nasty habit of slowing my computer to a near-halt.)
dwarring Perl 6 is ready at Christmas - its just that the Christmases are unevenly distributed 23:27
lue does anyone else get this, or should I upgrade my r-p? "build stage failed for panda: Failed building lib/Panda/Project.pm" 23:33
tadzik: any ideas what could be causing this? ^^^ 23:35
FROGGS lue: did you pass the --prefix to rakudo like ./something? 23:36
lue no...? It's been a while since I played with installing r-p, and it always goes straight to /usr/local 23:37
lue even cleared out his ~/.perl6 to make sure panda wasn't borking on old directories there. 23:38
lue (everything else builds fine, it's just panda. Running rebootstrap, IIRC, makes it so File::Find won't build. Somehow. 23:40
)
FROGGS: are you suggesting running sudo bootstrap or install the r-p toolchain into a non-sudo-required place would work? Because I'm not sure what makes ~/.perl6 broken. 23:42
FROGGS I dont know what to suggest :/
lue I just ran the build command (after reading through panda's code), and it seemed to run fine. I've no clue why it errors then :/ 23:51
