Set by moritz on 22 December 2015.
AlexDaniel samcv: generally, this is what makes it switch to it: setxkbmap -compat 'complete+ef+ledcaps(group_lock)' 'ef,ef(phonetic)' -option 'grp:sclk_toggle,grp_led:caps 00:00
(missing ' on the end)
samcv kk
AlexDaniel samcv: you can take any other existing layout as an example 00:01
samcv: if I recall correctly, -compat thing is needed to work around some issue with japanese keyboards 00:03
samcv: ( bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91042 )
samcv: so if you're just starting, you probably don't need it
samcv thank you kindly 00:04
AlexDaniel samcv: sclk_toggle is to make scroll lock switch between layouts, again it's something you probably don't need at all
so it is simply setxkbmap 'yourlayout'
AlexDaniel samcv: at the time I found this to be very helpful: medium.com/@damko/a-simple-humble-...1ad5e13450 00:07
AlexDaniel samcv: if you get into problems where some of your custom keys are not working in some software, feel free to ping me. There are a couple of tricks I know 00:11
samcv thank you 00:13
AlexDaniel ===SORRY!=== Representation must be composed before it can be serialized 03:40
what does it mean?
AlexDaniel ah-ha, it means I cannot ｢use …:from<Python>;｣ in a module 03:41
BenGoldberg was going to say, you need to do Classname.^compose, but that could be it instead. 03:42
AlexDaniel uh-oh, so how do I use something with Inline::Python if I'm doing it in a module?
BenGoldberg doesn't know. 03:43
In any case, g'night.
AlexDaniel .tell nine any ideas? irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2017-03-30#i_14348415 03:59
yoleaux AlexDaniel: I'll pass your message to nine.
samcv looks rike that coverage i generated is incorrect because i think it copied over the old results every .t file was ran 04:08
so i guess i'll make a nqp shell script that sets a random one, then when it runs them all combine all the randomly named datafiles together
or maybe it combines them. i'm not really sure the files are the same size 04:10
u-ou I want to write a bot that connects to IRC via SSL. how do I do that? 04:19
yoleaux 29 Mar 2017 10:19Z <Zoffix> u-ou: Don't know if anyone mentioned, but if you're writing an IRC bot, we already have an IRC module you can use and not mess with sockets: modules.perl6.org/repo/IRC::Client
u-ou I guess that's my answer in a way, but I'm not sure if I want to use a library yet. 04:22
AlexDaniel u-ou: so you want something to handle SSL stuff but don't want to use a module? 04:26
u-ou I didn't say "don't want to". just wondered if perl6 provided something for me. 04:28
u-ou pony 05:29
samcv u-ou, there's an IRC bot thing 05:37
samcv i've built an irc bot using it 05:37
samcv buggable, eco IRC::Client 05:38
buggable samcv, Found 4 results: IRC::Client, IRC::Client::Plugin::HNY, IRC::Client::Plugin::Factoid, IRC::Client::Plugin::UserPoints. See modules.perl6.org/#q=IRC%3A%3AClient
u-ou ta, will look into it 05:39
samcv the source for my bot is here github.com/samcv/keira-perl6-ircbot in case you're interested. it all uses plugins 05:44
well the whole thing is a plugin. in the lib folder the Keira.pm6 file has the bulk of the code, that get simpored into the executable
u-ou thanks :D 05:46
u-ou gtg 05:52
pmurias jnthn: re 'make spectest' on rakudo-debugger, does 'make spectest' test the rakudo debugger? 06:59
samcv pmurias, i don't think it does 07:01
domi91c hello 07:15
pmurias why is nqp::if faster then if ... {}? 08:04
samcv do you think it is faster?
samcv i mean sometimes it's not any faster. do you have evidence showing it's slower or just assuming it's slower? 08:05
pmurias it's used in the CORE a lot, I'm just wondering if the regular statement could be optimized so it's no longer needed 08:06
samcv but yeah nqp::if can be faster depending on what is in the if condition. if it's a nqp type thing nqp::if can be faster somewhat if it's a hot codepath
ah
it would go here github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/nom/...imizer.nqp 08:07
there probably already is something there, but i'm not sure what it covers 08:08
but if you are finding nqp::if is being faster in one situation i would try and improve the optimizer
lizmat has tried to get into the optimizer a few times 08:20
but I have not been able to wrap my head around it just yet :-(
this has probably to do with age 08:21
samcv i think i understand it. and then i keep going and then realize i know nothing at all
samcv when that file starts to make sense and then suddenly you realize you have no clue what it's doing 08:21
El_Che samcv: that's the Socratic paradox :) 08:47
pmurias do we want to implement count-only for stuff such as (-1.5.Num..^3).iterator? 08:58
we have a skipped test, but I'm not sure how useful the count-only method for such cases would actually be 08:59
timotimo There's no short-hand way to get a Promise that's already kept with a value you give, right? 09:36
like, you can't "Hello".Promise, or Promise.kept-value("Hello")
andrzejku hey where is Perl goo.gl/IxNzo8 09:54
how is with bug density in perl6?
SHODAN andrzejku, odd article 11:13
andrzejku maybe 11:14
but how is with bug density in perl6?
SHODAN i think you'll have to perform that study yourself if you're interested. i haven't heard of any such numbers :\ 11:17
timotimo there's not enough user code publically available on github for a sensible study, i'd say 11:18
SHODAN that might be a problem too
andrzejku okay but what do you think about it? 11:25
Perl6 vs C++ bug density 11:26
pmurias the way the measure "bug density" doesn't seem very reliable 11:29
timotimo opened github issues per line of code? 11:32
pmurias commits with a message that looks like it fixes a bug
timotimo ah
andrzejku timotimo: I think it should be developer feelings statistics 11:33
timotimo no, definitely not 11:33
"how buggy does your language make your code?" "my language is perfect, go away" 11:34
that's got to be helpful!
"php provokes bugs" - "no php is flawless, you dumb bully!"
pmurias disgruntlement seems like a very useful thing to measure 11:35
andrzejku I don't think so 11:39
many developers which program for many many years can told you many stories with different projects and languages
andrzejku I heard one a story about guy who need to fix some bugs in C/C++/scripting mixed code 11:40
and he was crying
after couple days
nebuchadnezzar interesting the GraphQL and Perl6 slides 11:41
pmurias andrzejku: most (all) technologies suck and annoy people in different ways, what would be interesting to measure is to what degree they do that 11:44
profan pmurias: i think it's very difficult to come to any objective measure about it 11:56
while bug density may be hard to measure, "disgruntlement" is.. also quite up there in terms of difficulty i'd say :P 11:57
DrForr timotimo: Were you the one playing with Synthesia? 12:02
timotimo ayup 12:03
DrForr Are you using your laptop keyboard, or an actual MIDI controller?
timotimo i'm the proud owner of an alesis vi61 12:05
DrForr Shiny. I'm looking for something portable, having had to deal with selling at least one 61-key unit. 12:07
timotimo yeah, the vi61 is definitely not portable :) 12:09
my dad started my interest when he got some pretty tiny thingie for almost-free one time and showed it to me 12:10
it had pretty cheap keys, and not many of 'em 12:11
like one and a half octave maybe?
DrForr Indeed. I bought an 88-key Yamaha MIDI controller (weighted, velocity) and had a fun (for geeky "Okay, how the hell do I set this up..." values of fun) in order to practice as close as I could get to a real piano, but it's nothing really useful w/o GarageBand... 12:12
timotimo pff, garage band. there's so many cool tools out there to try 12:13
timotimo if you'd enjoy fiddling with synth parameters and filters and such, have a look at sunvox 12:13
DrForr I know; it took me quite a while to figure out basic VS..R? sound stuff, I played w/ cubase.
timotimo oh, you mean the attack/decay/hold/fourth-thing 12:14
Woodi andrzejku: if you check some link in this article and link there, you will get that Perl5 is almoust as good as TypeScript :) but this article is just completly waste of time with terrible name with terrible arguments and conclusions...
timotimo ah, attack, decay, sustain, release
DrForr Yeah, ASDR envelopes.
It was just the keys, full 88-key multitouch velocity sensitive, and just figuring out the options to play back live sound was a challenge. 12:15
timotimo hehe 12:16
DrForr Hence garageband.
DrForr Synthesia looks fun enough (and I've watched enough video using it) to get me back into it, but I'd either need something like a Yamaha PSR taking up a huge amount of space (but with the fire-and-forget advantage) or take a more multimedia approach with a simpler keyboard. I can span more than an octave (I know, quit bragging) so at least a 49-key would work for me. 12:18
timotimo what, you can reach further than the same note on two octaves with just one hand? 12:20
DrForr Just barely.
DrForr Double-jointed and all that. 12:21
andrzejku Woodi: hey 12:23
Woodi: priv?
timotimo FWIW, i just hook synthesia up to a qsynth aka fluidsynth 12:24
not much setup required
timotimo heads out now
[Coke] www.platohistory.org/blog/2012/09/p...sited.html 13:14
raschipi Someone has to write a proposal so that Unicode can represent that. 13:16
DrForr youtu.be/AcS3NOQnsQM?t=115 13:19
[Coke] actually ponders making a module that, given a char or int, will print the str/codepoint/uniname 13:21
I've written so many one liners ending with a very long "say" at the end to dump that out…
raschipi Make it also able to dump property tables. 13:22
Like the bot.
masak [Coke]: may I point you to the excellent App::Uni? metacpan.org/pod/App::Uni 13:23
[Coke]: these days, I never leave home without it
raschipi Looks like a good template, but it would be useful to have a p6 version so we can query what Perl6 thinks of them. 13:24
masak I won't stop you from porting App::Uni to Perl 6, of course. my guess is it ends up being much smaller. 13:26
[Coke] masak++ nifty 13:28
I could see adding a -v to get rashipi's desired output also. 13:29
raschipi There is Perl6 code for all of this already, just factor it out of the bots. 13:30
jnthn react/whenever example of the day: quick and dirty async SSH port forwarder github.com/jnthn/p6-ssh-libssh/blo...forward.p6 13:31
raschipi "dirty" as in: cleaner than something that would be written in any other language except Erlang. 13:33
jnthn ;) 13:34
Well, more things like "it just goes and tears down the SSH session without caring about ongoing connections at shutdown" :) 13:35
What I actually needed to implement was reverse forwarding, alas... 13:36
jnthn goes to try and figure that out
raschipi "tears down the SSH session without caring about ongoing connections": Just let TCP deal with it. That's it's job anyway. 13:37
jnthn Well, there is that :)
nebuchadnezzar is enjoying the Damian's talk “On the shoulder of Giants” and wonders where Quantum::Computation module is :-D 13:45
skids jnthn: had any time for any initial thoughts on my "rolevolution" branch? I'm thinking maybe people will lean towards reversing the sense of the directive so renaming it something like "insist role {} and insist method {}". Or maybe TimToady would have a better word. 14:02
jnthn skids: Not yet, I'm afraid. :( Not really had time for Perl 6 anything this week (except $dayjob bits that happen to be done with Perl 6) 14:10
raschipi I admire Timtoady, he makes the most difficult task on Computer Science look so easy. 14:11
llfourn_ skids: what's the rolevolution? 14:16
jast raschipi: naming things? 14:26
raschipi Yeah.
The second one in the list being cache invalidation, of course. 14:31
Woodi why cache invalidation is hard ? 14:36
jnthn llfourn_: gist.github.com/skids/18fa6fb1de77...6e82e9fcc2 14:39
Geth doc: d1f2c6ac97 | (Zoffix Znet)++ | doc/Type/Method.pod6
Correct and expand &lastcall docs
 14:39
raschipi It's a tradeoff between keeping everything consistent and actually getting better performance out of it. How do you know a cache is stale without checking the source or the peers (which is what a cache is meant to avoid, after all). 14:40
And then doing it without race-conditions.
Woodi raschipi: I think it's a bit like fighting with physics laws 14:42
Woodi ok, that's answer why it's hard ;) 14:46
DrForr Alternatively, thinking like a physicist, you have to observe the cache in order to attempt to invalidate it. 14:47
skids (This is going to evolve into a discussion on Lamport clocks and light cones, isn't it?) 14:50
DrForr Only relatively. 14:53
raschipi I just find it almost unbelivable CPU algorithms have to wait for clock propagation, that's all. People have been researching assynchronous CPUs to get around it. 14:54
DrForr Clock pulses take up a good chunk of the CPU. 14:55
timotimo yeah, it has to be a nice and even tree that gets the clock to all parts at the very same time 14:56
skids I actually think the basic problem might be more solvable by highly syncronous CPUs.
Like a lock location that CPU#1 will only write to on clock cycles that are mod 1, CPU mod 2, etc.
timotimo cache invalidation is actually really easy. as soon as you've written to the cache, flush the cache. 14:57
raschipi For CPUs, yeah. But CS wants to deal with Caches in general, not just CPU caches.
timotimo no, for all caches 14:58
raschipi That doesn't solve even a read-only cache, because clients don't subscribe to events necessarily. They just retrieve and keep it in a cache. 14:59
raschipi The answer of course, is that they just use stale data anyway, it's an unsolvable problem in it's most general form. And the joke is that it's easier to solve than naming things. 15:02
timotimo you don't understand my solution 15:04
when you've written to the cache, immediately clear the cache. problem solved

masak: uni -n /(random regex)/ doesn't quite work yet, but everything else seems fineish. 15:12
timotimo [Coke]: hyper's broken, though
[Coke] also need to make DWIM mode DWIMMIER. 15:13
timotimo: ok.
[Coke] wonders if he should support "uni -n / 'ROMAN' .* 'HUNDRED' /" as an arbitrary command line. 15:16
as opposed to uni -n /'ROMAN'.*'HUNDRED'/ 15:17

[Coke] do we have a way to interrogate which version of unicode we're using yet? 17:47

lucs Why does it seem to me that all English speakers pronounce "integral" as "intregal"? 18:20
geekosaur not all of us but it's pretty common 18:28
[ptc] as a native, I've always been amazed at the pronunciation of 'Wednesday'; where I come from it sounds more like "Wensday" 18:35
hobbs lucs: I usually hear "intergral", but the short answer is rs are slippery 18:37
nothing else explains Brett Favre 18:38
lucs hobbs: Hmm... Yeah, I think I've heard it like that too. 18:39
[ptc]: I've never heard Wednesday pronounced other that like you said, "Wensday" :) 18:40
hobbs the only people who consistently say it otherwise are Indian English speakers
who pronounce it exactly as written
geekosaur sometimes you hear the second d but in the wrong place ("wendsday")
hobbs (which is pretty amusing, in my book) 18:41
[ptc] lucs: ah well, where I'm from mumbling is part of the accent :-) 18:41
lucs :)
hobbs (that last bit was about Wednesday, not integral) 18:42
[ptc] fwiw, my version is "innegrl"
lucs Yikes :)
[ptc] :-) 18:43
hobbs sounds like Appalachia :)
skids "nucular" is a verbal tick you may easily acquire if you were exposed to too many evangelical talk radio shows during the 80s. I don't know where "intergal" would have come from though. 19:03
[Coke] (uni) added a -w so you can easily search for things with "CAT" and not get MULTIPLICATION 19:14
gfldex i used `temp` in real code today the first time 20:07
gfldex there are so many nice things in Perl 6 I didn't use yet :) 20:07
raschipi What did you use it for? 20:11
gfldex github.com/gfldex/perl6-meta6-bin/...meta6#L148 20:12
you can't init a container with itself, unless you use temp
raschipi I see, you're accessing a variable in the outer scope. I was thinking about using temp on parameters and not seeing how it was different from "is copy" 20:14
gfldex m: my $foo = 42; sub s { temp $foo //= $foo ~ ':'; say $foo }; s 20:16
camelia 42
gfldex this feels wrong
m: my $foo = 42; sub s { temp $foo; say $foo }; s
camelia 42
gfldex temp should first create a copy and then apply the //= 20:17
raschipi m: my $foo = 42; sub s { temp ($foo //= $foo ~ ':'); say $foo }; s 20:20
camelia 42
raschipi I think temp doesn't happen at runtime. 20:20
Like "my". 20:22
Voldenet i can't express how much I like the usage of method-name instead of method_name or MethodName 20:45
I wish I could use perl6 syntax in .net's world, anyone working on perl6 for it? :P
raschipi What about $method's-name ? 20:46
geekosaur niecza hasn't been maaintained in a while
Voldenet raschipi: eh, is that even correct? :o 20:48
hmmm, that's kind of insane syntax :D
timo1 finally i'm on an up-to-date version of weechat again
Voldenet but I can see its uses
raschipi m: my $method's-name = "aaa"; say $method's-name
camelia aaa
AlexDaniel I've used ' a couple of times 20:49
It was something like $let's-save
Voldenet :)
i tend to use it to delimit strings only 20:50
raschipi What's the name of the Unicode property the codepoint needs for Perl6 to allow it in variable's names?
AlexDaniel raschipi: general category? :P

AlexDaniel raschipi: ‘gc’ or ‘General_Category’, and uniprop defaults to it 20:53

raschipi How do I ask the bot to produce the property tables?
AlexDaniel raschipi: uniprop: …
raschipi: you can include more than one character
raschipi uniprop: '
AlexDaniel oh sorry… unidump 20:58
raschipi unidump: '

AlexDaniel raschipi: fwiw, apostrophe appears here: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/nom/...r.nqp#L504 20:59
raschipi Like I said, I know they are treated exceptionally by the parser, because of it's other uses in the language. 21:00
AlexDaniel ah, <apostrophe> is also ' :)
raschipi Found it: Pattern_Syntax , www.unicode.org/reports/tr31/ 21:01
raschipi Loves, it's time for me to leave. XOXO 21:02

expecting any of:

infix stopper…
Voldenet uh, at least there are limits to insanity
m: my Int $int:hungarian-notation = 42; say $int:hungarian-notation 21:03
camelia 42
Voldenet ...not that shallow either :)
timo1 right, you're not allowed to start with a number after a hyphen (or apostrophe) 21:06
Voldenet but I bet colon does something special
timo1 yup
timo1 it's what we use for &infix:<+> and such 21:07
Voldenet hm, is it invalid to use $type:name as a variable name though? 21:10
timotimo m: my $type:name = 5; my $type:othername = 9; 21:11
camelia ( no output )
timotimo m: my $type:name = 5; my $type:othername = 9; dd $type:name, $type:othername
camelia Int $type:name = 5
Int $type:othername = 9
Voldenet It obviously works. ;)
timotimo seems to work just fine
gfldex m: my $name = 42; my $name:foo = 43; dd :: 21:29
camelia PseudoStash.new(("!UNIT_MARKER" => !UNIT_MARKER,"\$!" => Nil,"\$/" => Nil,"\$=finish" => Mu,"\$=pod" => [],"\$?PACKAGE" => GLOBAL,"\$_" => Any,"\$name" => 42,"\$name:foo" => 43,"\$¢" => Nil,"::?PACKAGE" => GLOBAL,:EXPORT(EXPORT),:GLOBALish(GLOBAL)))
gfldex what is $¢ ? 21:30
it's in roast, so it's a thing 21:31
mst dollarcent? 21:33
MasterDuke the changelog for 2015.09 say: '$¢' in grammars now refers to the current cursor 21:35
perlpilot gfldex: I tend to think of it as the "in-flux" version of $/
timotimo yeah, it's the same as $/.CURSOR
Voldenet a propos, special characters in perl6 are widely used, but is there any good way to use them with regular keyboard on windows? 21:39
timotimo there's a page about that on the docs site 21:41
Voldenet except not on windows ;(
timotimo oh? damn
gfldex Voldenet: most ppl on windows cheat and use a VM 21:47
Voldenet using alt + 0171 for « and alt + 0187 for » is kind of painful 21:49
also, I use a VM too, but xorg sucks
so I chose not to use it :P
gfldex Voldenet: that's what I use gfldex.wordpress.com/2016/08/31/on...ingertips/ 21:50
Voldenet atm I'm using plain << and >> instead, which looks worse but kind of works :) 21:54
too bad all methods are bound to using unix tools 21:55
geekosaur Voldenet, github.com/samhocevar/wincompose ? 21:55
geekosaur huggable, wincompose :is: github.com/samhocevar/wincompose a compose key for Windows, allowing choice of compose key and user-defined compositions 21:58
huggable geekosaur, Added wincompose as github.com/samhocevar/wincompose a compose key for Windows, allowing choice of compose key and user-defined compositions
geekosaur ahahah just discovered one of its predefined bindings uses the konami code for a table flip 22:01
Voldenet heh :D
Hm, I'm yet to learn how to use it though 22:02
geekosaur "compose key" is a unix thing. so <compose> < < gets « 22:03
Voldenet wincompose comes with too many sequences, and I just need a "perl6" sequence :) 22:04
...or i might just use google japanese ime ★ 22:05
skink Who has issues installing Crypt::Bcrypt? 22:08
grondilu off-topic: rocket launch tonight www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsZSXav4wI8
perigrin isn't this the space tested rocket? 22:13
(yes yes it is) 22:14
labster yup, I'm excited!
perigrin is on the wrong end of the country for a change 22:16
:/
AlexDaniel grondilu: another one that is supposed to land back, right? 22:23
grondilu AlexDaniel: I think so 22:24
there is a "landing" mark on the timeline
Voldenet skink: I don't have issues, it just plainly does not work for me 22:28
> Testing [FAIL]: if:ver('0.1.0'):auth('github:FROGGS')
whatever that should mean
perigrin AlexDaniel: and the one that already did it once. 22:31
Voldenet oh
t/if.t (Wstat: 0 Tests: 1 Failed: 0)
perigrin basically "can we do it again"
Voldenet Parse errors: Bad plan. You planned 5 tests but ran 1.
skink Oh, that's roundabout 22:33
That's a dependency of Crypt::Random
Voldenet Yeah, it's /if/ 22:34
not sure if it's not my setup's problem, but "Cannot find method 'symtable' on object of type GLOBAL", got that too? 22:37
skink Ah, okay zoffix already put a ticket in for that module
Voldenet indeed 22:38
"let's just wait"
skink Everything actually builds fine for me
labster If anyone's still in suspense, successful launch, and success retrieval of first stage. The second stage of SES-10 is moving from LEO to geostationary orbit. 22:54
Zoffix skink: it probably works for you 'cause you're on 2017.01 or earlier rakudo. 2017.02+ had changes to some internal features that if.pm6 is actually using. 23:05
skink Yeah that's what I figured 23:07
