timotimo hrmpf. lots of fiddling with no good results :\ 00:23
raydiak am I the only one who finds it odd that we numify w/.Numeric but stringify w/.Str, not .Stringy? 02:07
colomon we just don't have much that's Stringy but not Str at the moment. 02:08
while we have lots that's Numeric but not Num
raydiak I figured it was something like that, it just seems asymettrical in a seemingly needless way 02:09
I noticed the docs for Stringy mentioned a Cat class which doesn't exist...wonder what that used to be 02:11
colomon it's not been yet
Cat is a lazy string 02:12
raydiak ah, interesting
colomon so (for instance) it might make more sense for slurp to return a Cat than a Str 02:13
but I think right now everyone is more interested in getting what we already have working well enough, if you know what I mean. 02:14
raydiak yep...glad we don't *just* run around in circles of reinvention :)
colomon ;) 02:15
I'm lazily interested in Cat because I've had to sometimes deal with 1 GB text files for work, and it seems like Cat combined with a parse that threw away the "string so far" after ratcheting would be ideal for that. 02:17
but right now Rakudo is still so slow that 1 GB files are kind of out of the question even with extremely clever handling, so I'm not worrying about it. 02:18
raydiak that would be really slick and seamless though, compared to handling small parsable chunks at a time 02:21
in most cases, laziness is transparent/automatic...why would we need a Cat class?
colomon to implement the transparent/automatic stuff 02:27
the idea, of course, is that if you're using a Stringy interface, what you write works with Str or Cat. 02:28
raydiak I mean e.g. Lists can be lazy, but there's not like a List and a LazyList, it's just some private attrs and so forth that control whether/how much an instance is lazy 02:29
(if I understand how it all works correctly)
colomon huh 02:30
now I'm halfway to convincing myself that's a flaw in List. ;)
raydiak hah :)
colomon well, really that we could use a list-ish role that allows us to cleanly consume list-y things 02:31
might be that Iterable is that already.
I dunno.
anyway, no one has really explored Cat yet 02:32
and Stringy just sort of hangs around based on the notion that it might be a good abstraction someday.
raydiak yeah I didn't really have a point, I just often learn new stuff with these meandering trains of thought 02:33
colomon nothing wrong with that in the least. :) 02:41
raydiak got any ideas or suggestions for math::symbolic other than the obviously missing peices? 02:46

It's passing now
colomon raydiak: does it work with panda yet? :) 02:56
raydiak colomon: um...yes? unless you know something I don't...
colomon nope. :(
resolve stage failed for Math::Symbolic: Project Math::Symbolic not found in the ecosystem
raydiak do a 'panda update' recently? 02:57
colomon 30 seconds ago
raydiak weird it just worked for me earlier today
colomon can you install it from panda?
raydiak yep, just confirmed it still wfm
colomon :\ 02:58
raydiak other modules install fine still? 02:59
colomon yes
wonder if panda update is somehow broken on my machine? 03:00
raydiak huh...other than running 'update', I'm kinda clueless right now
oh look the github urls are broken 03:01
raw2.github.com/raydiak/Math-Symbo.../META.info <-- 404
raydiak must not be affecting me b/c supposedly I ran update before they broke 03:02
we've had stuff break b/c of github changing its urls or even their html before
colomon can you run panda info Math::Symbolic and post the results?
errr… maybe you need to do a panda update and see if you still have Math::Symbolic ? 03:03
raydiak Math::Symbolic
Symbolic math for Perl 6
colomon raw.githubusercontent.com/raydiak/.../META.info works
raydiak State: installed
colomon for me
raydiak Source-url: git://github.com/raydiak/Math-Symbolic.git
Author: raydiak
yes, but all the urls in the ecosystem use raw2.github.com 03:04
colomon just did panda install git://github.com/raydiak/Math-Symbolic.git and that seems to be working. :) 03:05
raydiak every single line in github.com/perl6/ecosystem/blob/ma.../META.list is currently a 404 :P 03:06

DelmoreTheDonkey why is the output "all(any(10, 6, 4), any(8, 4, 2))" 07:31
I was expecting "any(all(10, 6, 4), all(8, 4, 2))"
moritz DelmoreTheDonkey: not saying that it's wrong, but why did you expect that? 07:39
DelmoreTheDonkey If I take everything in B away from anything in A should I expect to have everything(all) or anything(any)? 07:54
moritz DelmoreTheDonkey: you're arguing as if junctions were sets 07:57
DelmoreTheDonkey: they aren't
junctions only make sense as matchers
DelmoreTheDonkey ok.
moritz all(1, 3) means "a matcher that's true if the number I compare it to is both 1 and 3"
DelmoreTheDonkey what current uses do we have for junctions of junctions? 07:58
moritz for example if $filename ~~ any(none('README', 'LICENSE'), none(/^\./)) 07:59
imagine you have several files that you want to filter out by junctions
and one matcher none('README', 'LICENSE'), and one matcher none(/^\./) for dotfiles
and then you want to test if a file is exluded by either of those 08:00

oh
raydiak it's right
moritz it must be all()

moritz m: say '.git' ~~ all(none('README', 'LICENSE'), none(/^\./))
camelia rakudo-moar 315ec6: OUTPUT«False␤»
moritz so the all() check tells if you something isn't ignored
and this, ladies and gentlemen, is why it's probably best not to use nested junctions :-) 08:08
FROGGS moritz: well, it makes sense in case the none() parts are in variables 08:09
moritz possibly 08:09
FROGGS so you keep an array of junctions that specify what should be ignored, and push to that array depending on the platform you are running on or so
moritz actually
the junctions specify what to *not* ignore in my example 08:10
which is why we need all(), not any()
FROGGS or that
moritz if specify what to ignore, you use any() junctions, and then again any() junctions to combine them 08:11
which is a lot more intuitive, IMHO
and less spectacular from a "nested junctions" POV, because any(a, any(b, c)) is equivalent to any(a, b, c)
grondilu hello, if someone wants to help writing a C parser: github.com/grondilu/C 09:40
FROGGS grondilu: I've seen a (huge) C grammar written in Perl 6 already 09:43
grondilu ok 09:44
where is it?
FROGGS I am already searching for it
FROGGS grondilu: irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2013-03-29#i_6643290 09:48
grondilu ok thanks 09:50
brrt grondilu: this because of the c4 thingy? 09:59

MalliParitala Hello 10:08
I want to help Perl6 10:09
FROGGS hi MalliParitala
MalliParitala Hello FROGGS 10:10
peteretep MalliParitala: Great! Just send over your CC details, and we'll get started
brrt hi MalliParitala, what do you want to do? there is a lot to do :-) 10:10
one of the best ways to help perl6 is to start using it, and report to us any issues that you find 10:11
MalliParitala I know Perl5
i can code in Perl5
Ok 10:12
FROGGS MalliParitala: you could for example port a module from Perl 5 to Perl 6, if you want to... 10:12
MalliParitala Okay.
Do we have list of modules need to be ported to Perl6? 10:13
brrt well, anything you like, really 10:15
we have modules.perl6.org
modules.perl6.org
if you find that any perl5 module you frequently use is not represented there, you can try and port it
MalliParitala Cool. 10:16
brrt of course, we already have a list like that: github.com/perl6/perl6-most-wanted...modules.md
MalliParitala Thanks brrt
brrt you're welcome :-) i hope you can find something to your liking 10:17
MalliParitala Do i need to provide my mail ID so that i can get updates about perl6 work?
brrt no, you can subscribe to one of the mailing lists 10:17
MalliParitala Okay.
brrt perl6.org/community/ this page gives you all the information you might want 10:18
or perhaps, are likely to want
MalliParitala I will start using Perl6 first. Thanks much.
brrt no problem. please keep us updated with anything you might encounter 10:18
grondilu brrt: not really. More that I'd like a C parser to automate X11 bindings 10:31
brrt i see 10:32

azawawi hi #perl6 11:49
im getting "resolve stage failed for $module-name" from panda installs. Is there a problem with latest panda?
azawawi panda install Farabi6 11:50
resolve stage failed for Farabi6: Project Farabi6 not found in the ecosystem
latest github panda, and rebootstrapped... 11:52
colomon according to my smoke test run, there's nothing in the ecosystem at all. though that was as of 5 hours ago.
lizmat FROGGS: looks like the spectest is significantly slower after this update
before: Files=930, Tests=33836, 172 wallclock secs ( 8.98 usr 3.36 sys + 1041.29 cusr 163.08 csys = 1216.71 CPU)
azawawi i guess it was the latest rakudo when i pulled it
lizmat after: Files=930, Tests=34048, 208 wallclock secs ( 8.74 usr 3.21 sys + 1276.04 cusr 184.99 csys = 1472.98 CPU) 11:53
azawawi rebuilds rakudo
the first thing i dont when i log on to play with perl6 is a 'cd ~/rakudo && git pull && (git log | less)' :) 11:54
lizmat looks like bare startup time almost *doubled*
before ~ .21 sec, now ~ .34 sec
and I'm still seeing flappy tests :-(
azawawi hmmm projects.json has only [] 11:56
lizmat (ok, more like 1.6x slower)
azawawi after a perl6 rebootstrap, projects.json has only '[]' 11:57
panda regression?
lizmat feels to me this version of moar is more like using more and giving less :-(
github URL change wtf ?
azawawi has anyone tried latest panda with latest rakudo? 12:15
FROGGS lizmat: the consensus was to deprecate $*EXECUTABLE, so, they way forward might be to speedup $*EXECUTABLE if that is possible 12:23
lizmat: in what areas are the flapping tests?
lizmat azawawi: what are you seeing ? 12:27
fwiw, a rebootstrap worked for me just now 12:28
azawawi really?
sorry i was away a bit
lizmat as well
azawawi same problem as irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2014-11-05#i_9612344 12:29
lizmat needs to get some other things done before travelling to London for LPW this weekend
FROGGS problem is that feather.perl6.nl:3000/projects.json is empty (and empty json array) 12:30
tadzik: ping 12:32
tadzik: the service here needs to be adjusted: feather.perl6.nl:3000/projects.json you need to apply a patch similar to github.com/perl6/modules.perl6.org...8d8a68cd18 12:33
azawawi alright i caught one... FROGGS++
azawawi fishes for other bugs :)
lizmat the pond is still pretty full :-) 12:35
azawawi which is good, right? :)
azawawi panda install rakudo # that would be fun :) 12:38
i was working on integrating perl6-debug-m with farabi6 to provide a gui 12:39
so far im near its completion... stepping in/out, ...etc 12:40
ironing some bugs here & there
lizmat FROGGS: flapping tests are all over the map 12:45
FROGGS: not sure what you mean with "the consensus was to deprecate $*EXECUTABLE, so, they way forward might be to speedup $*EXECUTABLE if that is possible" 12:46
FROGGS lizmat: I have not a single failing test
lizmat guesses you're not on OSX
FROGGS lizmat: we want to replace $*EXECUTABLE_NAME by $*EXECUTABLE 12:47
lizmat aha :-)
FROGGS sorry :o)
correct, I'm using ubuntu
lizmat on JVM and Moar, EXECUTABLE depends on $*VM, and that's the costly bit, I guess 12:48
EXECUTABLE creation is not particularly expensive 12:49
FROGGS tadzik: looks like your modules/updatelist.pl needs to run under PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=0
azawawi was rakudo star 2014.10 released or not? 12:54
lizmat not that I'm aware of 12:55
azawawi it is strange that we deprecate something in 2014.10 and then we dont release it to the public :)
lizmat azawawi: afaik we only deprecate rakudo compiler versions... not rakudo star 13:01

 13:47
lucas__ So, following the conventions of traditional Unix and Perl 5 manpages, would it be interesting to move AUTHORS sections to the very end of the file, instead of leaving them at the very beginning?
Having said that, I have to say I fully admire the hard work of the original authors. I hope this is not disrespectful. 13:48
But I think nowadays, the specs are community-property, rather than the work of sole-authors like it was "In The Beginning". 13:49

lucas__ Do I have an "OK" from someone for moving the AUTHORS section to the end? I think that would be an easy change. Then, I would submit a pull request. I think ownership discourages contributions. I'm just trying to clean up the specs a little bit. This change would unclutter the top of the documents for more useful information like introduction/overview/summary of the text. I won't change anything in the section, just move it to the end. Would such change be ac 14:41

moritz lucas__: truncated after "Would such change be" 14:44
lucas__: and yes, you have my +1

moritz lucas__: re your pull request, IMHO the feedback infomration belongs to the index page, perlcabal.org/syn/
lucas__: that page is currentl in the perl6/mu repo, and IMHO should go into the perl6/specs repo, but that requires updating cron-jobs too 14:47

psch ISTR not being able to commit to perl6/nqp even with belonging to the perl6 org. i think that makes sense, because nqp probably also wants the CLA? 14:56
moritz psch: it simply has separate teams
psch: if you need an nqp comit bit, let me know
psch: (and tell me your github ID)
psch moritz: i don't usually need it, but i'll speak up again in case it looks like i'm doing more in nqp. thanks 15:01
psch fwiw, what i did in nqp up to now was just a failed refactoring attempt and a few overloadable methods for typed exceptions, which is quick enough to review 15:04
in contrast to e.g. the rakudo cliparser or tr/// branches 15:05

timotimo disabling https certificate validation sounds like a huge smell ...
tadzik FROGGS: no worries :)
timotimo: yeah, my thoughts exactly
FROGGS tadzik: I did not look at your p0rn, promise :P
timotimo what's wrong? is their certificate self-signed? or expired?
FROGGS we can install their cert, that should also do I guess 15:50
timotimo i would prefer that, but i don't know how to handle certificate storage and stuff ...

tadzik github cert in my browser verifies perfectly well
FROGGS tadzik: for me too
tadzik is our LWP too old on feather? 15:52
tadzik and using some version of SSL that's not cool anymore? 15:52
(so, any of them? :P)
FROGGS ahh btw, depending on the perl 5 ssl module you use, it does not do cert verification at all
tadzik I'm using Perl from /usr/local/bin/perl, no local::lib as far as I can see 15:59
so it's just using feather's system libraries
I blame LWP, perhaps it's missing proper TLS support, lacking underlying libraries? 16:00
FROGGS tadzik: do you explicitly use an ssl library before you use lwp? 16:01
tadzik no
should I? :)
FROGGS I am... not sure right now 16:04
FROGGS maybe that helps? stackoverflow.com/questions/74358/h...rtificates 16:05
i.e. setting HTTPS_CA_DIR=/usr/share/ca-certificates/ (if that path exists)

[Tux] carefully pokes tadzik about his promised slang
tony-o FROGGS: win32 calls to QueryPerformance[Frequency|Counter]

FROGGS [Tux]: are you talking about a grammar by any chance?
[Tux] did the name change? :P
FROGGS no :o) 16:45
[Tux] fwiw that promise might have been the main reason I got back into trying perl6
FROGGS a slang let you write in another language literally subsequent blocks
in subsequent* 16:46
[Tux] doesn't care what its called, as long as I can write «function (arg, arg);» instead of «function( arg, arg );»
FROGGS and a grammar is just a class-like regex
ahh
that's a slang then
FROGGS [Tux]: creating a slang that inherits from the Perl 6 grammar is not easily doable as of today 16:49
[Tux] I want it yesterday, but next week will be good enough :} 16:50
FROGGS :S
[Tux] seriously: that is the most important issue that is holding me from having FUN in perl6

I can live with such a problem. :-) 16:55
PerlJam "2015 will be the year that Perl 6 officially launches for production use" is kind of a bold claim. 16:56

colomon woah, that's only three months away! 16:57

[Tux] having been present with perl6 launch (mug event in Monteray), it would be a good Idea to also be present at fosdem
PerlJam woolfy: agreed. But the delivery must be close to flawless otherwise we get all the naysayers coming out of the woodwork *worse* than I expect they already will
psch oh, that talk looks exciting 16:59
lizmat I have no doubt that a lot of shit is going to hit the fan

Flying and breaking mugs... we buried the meme in Perl, august 2012. :-) 17:07
arnsholt masak: As our resident category theorist (I guess), what would you recommend as an introductory text to the field?
PerlJam woolfy: I think we'll have to wait until Perl 6 has been released to the wild for several years before there's enough material for a "Modern Perl 6" book. 17:08
woolfy: Though, a "Modern Perl" book that has a chapter on Perl 6 doesn't seem too far out there. 17:09
woolfy PerlJam: either way, chromatic coming back would be lovely 17:11

tony-o is there a way to get a handle for the current process and for a 'start'ed async block (is there a separate handle for that)? 17:18

tony-o: which you can use to wait for the thread, extract the result, and maybe even cancle the thing

Not sure if that's even a good idea (or feasible, certainly near impossible on JVM I suspect)
ajr_ If I started working through Perl 5 examples, converting them to Perl 6, and asking why when they break, would that be a valuable guide to writing an introduction to Perl 6, or an annoying display of stupidity?
moritz ajr_: I'd be interested
tony-o ajr_: sounds pretty useful
arnsholt: i'm trying to use NativeCall to get process times on windows, it wants to get Process HANDLE or Thread HANDLE and I'm having trouble figuring out how to use those. (I'm caling GetProcessTimes and GetThreadTimes specifically) 17:30
ajr_ (I tried working through "Mastering Algorithms" a while back, and crashed and burned so fast it didn't feel worth continuing.)

Except how the read memory, obviously =)
*they
timotimo yes 18:58
well, only how they lay out the memory
i thought i could have a trait "is union" that would have a flag set in the REPRData before compose gets called
and that would just make the CStruct begin each member at offset 0

PerlJam masak: Maybe Padre could if given some help 21:34
masak mebbe. 21:35
vendethiel masak: Perl6 will be insanely hard for IDEs, btw :P
masak I can see how that's true for the parsing part, because Perl 6 has a lot of fun with the parse/run barrier. 21:36
more fun than Perl 5, in some senses. 21:37
masak after having an AST and something PSI-like, I don't see how it's harder than most other languages, though. 21:37
vendethiel Right. But that's not the hard part -- haskell and scala IDEs are pretty good (seen haskforce?)
vendethiel the hard part is macro fun and metamodel fun 21:37
masak granted, those bits are challenging 21:39
moritz back from a very fine dinner
arnsholt I imagine Perl 6 IDE will work more or less like Lisp IDE stuff: The editor talks to a running program image in a background process
vendethiel well, I certainly hope we can get a rakudo-slave for the IDE :)
arnsholt Bah. My clever Python variable handling scheme wasn't clever enough >.< 21:43
arnsholt Action methods are of course executed inside-out, which breaks it 21:43
masak arnsholt: I've made peace with action methods working that way -- maybe if you provided more information, I could help? 21:44
arnsholt I want to mark free variables (that is, those that are referenced before being assigned to) as such 21:45
Doing it in action methods mostly works, but something like the for loop also introduces a binding
masak oh, right.
arnsholt And marking the variable as declared in the for loop action is too late
masak yes, I see the problem.
arnsholt Easy way out is to add the decl out-of-order in the grammar
masak I think so, yes. 21:46
you probably want to keep a dynamical.
arnsholt Yeah, already added $*BLOCK 21:46
Only sane way to keep track of that
masak arnsholt++ 21:47
vendethiel agrees
but I made peace with the order as well :-)
arnsholt Yeah, I'm at peace with the order. I just brainoed and expected things to work the way I needed them to =) 21:48

masak arnsholt: it really started to click for me with math.mit.edu/~dspivak/CT4S.pdf
vendethiel (sorry, I'm kidding, that's a terrible book to start...)
masak: I think I'd start off with set theory 21:54
masak arnsholt: that helped me get further into www.amazon.com/Categories-Working-M...387984038/ -- which I still find dense.
vendethiel "Algebra chapter 0" by Aluffi is pretty good for a set theory introduction
vendethiel doesn't read a lot of programming books, because most of those are costly... 21:55
masak arnsholt: currently, I'm filling in some glaring gaps in group theory, universal algebra, and algebraic topology, all of which help me appreciate category theory better.

arnsholt It's one of those things I suspect I'd be better off knowing
vendethiel: Getting there =)
vendethiel arnsholt: my links are for you
arnsholt My set theory is a bit rusty, but mostly adequate I think 21:57
I should probably brush up on that too, though
vendethiel alright. I don't have *any* science-y background whatsoever, so... I just learned stuff on top of stuff, and then later I started reading proper stuff
I have a paper version of Homotopy type theory, but I'm still not reading it yet
arnsholt Yeah, in that case I can see how set theory doesn't come first
vendethiel it comes before category theory :) 21:58
arnsholt Oh, wow. A linear logic course. Neat!
vendethiel yes, a friend of mine linked those to me. You might be interested by answers from #idris and #agda, even maybe #nothaskell
masak haha, #nothaskell :) 21:59
vendethiel ;-)
arnsholt Linear logic is yet another thing I should learn more about
One of my master's advisors uses it to compute semantics for natural language
The resource sensitive part of the logic is very useful for that
(Also, having an operator called "lollipop" is pretty neat =D) 22:00
vendethiel yeah, logical frameworks are very interesting. Dependently-typed languages and proof assistants use those to great effect
also, yay for logical frameworks where ¬(¬a) is not a :D
arnsholt Yeah, I remember those
I took a course on (essentially) strategies for automated theorem proving (in FOL) once. That was pretty neat 22:01
Also what made me actually grok how models in FOL work
timotimo o/ 22:04
arnsholt \o
vendethiel arnsholt: when I hear people say "I took a course on *subject*" I always feel sad :P 22:05
timotimo arnsholt: are you interested in building CUnion support for CStruct?
PerlJam vendethiel: why? 22:06
vendethiel PerlJam: I never took any courses :)
PerlJam vendethiel: and that makes you sad?
vendethiel PerlJam: yes.
PerlJam vendethiel: so take some courses! :)
arnsholt timotimo: It sounds like a reasonable plan, certainly
vendethiel PerlJam: I can't get in university
s/y$/ies/
masak 'night, #perl6 22:07
arnsholt g'night masak o/
colomon \o
PerlJam vendethiel: there are online courses like from coursera an ocw.mit.edu 22:08
vendethiel PerlJam: yes, I've followed some of those
arnsholt heads sleepwards too 22:14
Night, night!
lizmat gnight arnsholt
timotimo gnite arnsholt 22:15
lizmat moritz: why is your blogpost not on pl6anet.org ?
vendethiel g'night 22:16
timotimo hmm. what should i do next? 22:17
lucas_ hi
About S15 and S26:
a) convert everything to Perl 6 Pod in the future 22:18
b) convert S15 and S26 to Perl 5 POD
c) leave it as is at the moment
Have you are decided?
*already
lizmat also calls it a night 22:24
raiph "I'm also curious how this would look in perl6." Anyone want to respond? perlmonks.org/?node_id=1105972 (I plan to do so tomorrow if no one else does.) 22:26
lucas_ I guess I'll just write here my opinion, ok? Yes, I would like to have all the files in the same Perl 5 POD format. 22:37
lucas_ I think Perl 6 Pod format experiments could be done in a different repository. 22:38
Also, I don't think it's good to right a specification for some format in its own format.
Think about a YAML specification written in... YAML. :) 22:39
If something changes, it would have to be applied recursively in the document.
Once in its content, and once in its own format. 22:40
So... I would like to convert those files to Perl 5 POD. Will such thing be accepted and merged? 22:42
raiph "2015 will be the year that Perl 6 officially launches for production use." <-- I hate that. 22:43
timotimo we should definitely nominate some random outsider to be our spokesperson 22:44
since they seem to know everything better than us 22:45
Ulti doing it now
:P
raiph timotimo: ? 22:48
lucas_ *good to write
lucas_ Well, iff anyone wants to answer me that later, write here and I'll read the logs later. Thanks. Bye. 22:51
tony-o .tell lucas_ pod is for writing documentation, yaml isn't. that isn't really a good comparison 22:59
yoleaux tony-o: I'll pass your message to lucas_.
Ulti hmmm I have reputation 0 on PerlMonks not sure anyone can see my posts
raiph Ulti: Wow, nice answer. 23:02
Ulti it's a good answer because there is enough material floating about for it to be a good answer ;) 23:04
also because Perl6 has really nice stuff that people still spend pointless amounts of time faffing with in Perl5 whilst trying to avoid deps
raiph Heh. That's about my all time favorite PerlMonks answer to someone asking something about P6. 23:08
Ulti: You can edit posts. And you can make those text only links clickable. 23:09
Ulti k k
also PerlMonks utterly sucks 23:10
Ulti as in the interface to posting 23:11
not the content
maybe we need PerlEntomologist 23:12
