timotimo it was a piece of hardware that a german electronics online/phone store offered a couple of years ago 01:30
it was supposed to be a picture frame, you could upload jpegs and it'd give you a slideshow 01:31
and there was a debug mode that would let you flash updates, so people went ahead and wrote their own custom firmware

Geth doc: b620e944e2 | (Nacho Mas)++ | doc/Language/math.pod6
Corrects some imprecissions in the "Doing math with Perl_6" article

  * Disclaimer about the purported mathematical field nature of Rat, Num
   and Complex
  * Rephrases the Int section to be more consistent
  * Matrices are not, in general, a field but a ring
  * Hamilton's quaternions are not a field, but an algebra over the real
   numbers
  * Claiming that ℝ is a sequence makes very little sense from a
   mathematical standpoint. Lacking further explanation/justification,
   the reference should be dropped until it can be given some meaning.

Xliff jj: Missing a few constants. Did you want standard gravity (g), electron-mass, neutron-mass and proton-mass? 07:06
Let me know and I will write the tests and submit a PR
jmerelo Xliff: if I remember correctly, I should have the first two, not the others. By all means, give them a try. Thanks! 07:07
Xliff Is Constants.pm for constants not found in Parser/ ?
jmerelo Xliff: sorry, what? 07:08
Xliff p6-Math-Parser has a Constants.pm and another file called ebyteParse-output.txt
07:09 telex joined
Xliff I can find some of the constants I mentioned in the 2nd file, but not in the first. 07:09

So, back to this "Constants.pm for constants not found in Parser/"
Xliff: it should be in lib/Math/Constants.pm6 07:11
Xliff OK, then. Now I feel silly, because my changes are GONE.
TYou have universal G, but not standard g
Electron mass, photon mass and neutron mass are not in Constants.pm 07:12
jmerelo Xliff: then g would be great. And the rest too, I guess :-) Thanks!
Xliff And there are a lot more listed in the second file, but not in Constants.pm
I will regen and send a quick PR, then.

AlexDaniel jmerelo: that's not the most optimistic way to look at things! :) 12:03
jmerelo AlexDaniel: I still like ake
AlexDaniel I'm fine with ake
jmerelo I mean, it's like looking for a parking space. You can pick whatever one you have handy, or you can go further and further away from your destination looking for an easier, or nicer, one. 12:04
AlexDaniel but they're building a new parking lot over there! All I have to do is just wait a little bit!
:) 12:05
jmerelo If eventually þerl is chosen (which it will, because it's the nicest), we can always change it back to þake. But it's been sake for some period of time, it might change to ake for a limited period...
AlexDaniel: right :-)
AlexDaniel: ... then maybe perl6 gets a new alias, and we want to change it to whatever makes it more similar to that name... Or not, because everybody loves ake by then.

El_Che Zoffix: your blog post is greatly appreciated 13:03
AlexDaniel yes 13:04
I found it somewhat surprising that it didn't propose some specific alias 13:06
moritz that's a very useful tactic
AlexDaniel but I guess there's a reason for that
El_Che yeah
moritz because it means you aren't conflating calling for an alias with promoting one particular alias
+1 on that
13:07 cognominal-p6 joined, p6bannerbot sets mode: +v cognominal-p6
El_Che is als a more fundamental question to TimToady, than 1 specific name. 13:08
so you can be OK with an alias, but not ok with one specific one
AlexDaniel fwiw I'd be OK with any alias as long as it doesn't have “perl” in it. I'm just too tired 13:11
kensanata After all these years, I'm fortified! 13:12
I started saying Perl 5 instead of Perl, for example...
AlexDaniel kensanata: but do you write perl 6 with a non-breaking space? :P 13:14
CIAvash How would an alias actually work? Everywhere(website, docs, excecutable, ...) mentions Perl 6 but we call it something else?
kensanata AlexDaniel: I'm sure that's not part of the name, and no trademark registry would allow for it, so for all indents and purposes, even if you believed it to be necessary, it'd be a joke. 😛 13:15
13:16 cognominal-p6 left, cognominal-p6 joined
AlexDaniel kensanata: I'm serious 13:16
kensanata: it doesn't need to be part of the trademark, I'm just asking if *you* write it with nbsp 13:17
13:17 p6bannerbot sets mode: +v cognominal-p6
kensanata AlexDaniel: Of course not. 13:17
AlexDaniel kensanata: because if you don't, and say you write a blog post
kensanata: then “Perl” and “6” can be broken into separate lines
which makes it look rather weird 13:18
kensanata: so for the documentation and everything, we try to use nbsp
kensanata: and we recommend others to do the same :)
kensanata AlexDaniel: But doesn't that happen to all sorts of names? Even words are split accross lines. The question of typography is separate from the name.
So having a convention saying please use a non-breaking space between A and B is fine, but the *name* still consists of A and B. 13:19
AlexDaniel sure, yes
but I liked your “Of course not.” answer :) 13:20

AlexDaniel I think `compose space space` should give a non-breaking space on most systems
kensanata Yes, that's true. 13:23
AlexDaniel .tell jmerelo I'll take a little break and then will write a page for results
yoleaux AlexDaniel: I'll pass your message to jmerelo.
El_Che In case TimToady is reading: please veto names with spaces in it, and everything needing a compose key :)
kensanata Haha 13:24
AlexDaniel El_Che: but 🦋!
kensanata Better limit ourselves to ASCII.
AlexDaniel :)
moritz what about 駱駝道? </troll>
kensanata It's name is 🦋 but we call it "butterfly". 🦋 is the language, "butterfly" is the name of the language, because we don't want to use "Perl 6" since it's associated with "Perl" which other people might not like. Also, "Perl 6" is the name for a Perl programming language and "Perl 5" is also a name for a Perl programming language, but a different one. It's more like a set, not sequence… 13:26
El_Che Ƭ̵̬̊ the artist formely known as prince-vibe
kensanata El_Che: I'll admit it. This is cool. 13:27
CIAvash Has anybody thought about what happens after an alias is chosen? Are there going to be any changes to the website and docs? 13:29
lizmat I think everybody knows my stance in this 13:30
I would also like to have people think about what this would mean for conferences and stands at conferences 13:31
13:34 Zoffix joined, p6bannerbot sets mode: +v Zoffix
Zoffix lizmat: I don't remember what your stance on it is. All I recall is you saying it won't happen 13:34
yoleaux 10:13Z <brrt> Zoffix: Summation -> Summary, Numerious -> Numerous
Zoffix lizmat: I don't see much happening with conferences, since it's not a rename. 13:35
timotimo i'm 100% on board with getting a name that gives us the same acronym as brainfuck (re: butterfly)
El_Che I think lizmat has a good point, Zoffix. But we'll cross that bridge if we get there
CIAvash Because at the very least it can add a new layer of confusion, people hear name X and then see Perl 6 and wonder what that is about
Zoffix CIAvash: I thought yes. We ban all blanket name changes and let people use whatever name they prefer when writing content. This will make one of the names superior to the other, based on the amount of use. 13:36
moritz so, I visited a talk by Damian Conway, and the organizers told him not to use the name Perl until the end, because people might walk away 13:38
dunno if that was warranted, but he did
El_Che moritz: whut?
Zoffix El_Che: someone on Facebook brought that up as well. They posted a bunch of pictures of "PerlConf" and "The Perl Conference" and said the alias would affect it. What I don't understand is why a "Perl" (as opposed to "Perl 6") conference is a perfect fit. I can't know whether there will be any Perl 6 talks at all unless I look at the program. Same would be with the alias name.
moritz and called it "Albus", after a certain wizard, and because the language was pretty magical
13:38 cognominal-p6 left
moritz and I kinda liked it 13:38
short, has a positive annotation, and I'm not aware of other software with that name 13:39
El_Che Zoffix: I don't think it will be a problem, but it will be something to take into account, in lizmat's conf role
moritz El_Che: this talk was organized by Frankfurt.pm, but in collaboration with a pretty general web development conference, and hosted by a university
Zoffix +1 on Albus, though I'd settle for any non-offensive, non-joke name that doesn't have whitespace or numbers in it :) 13:40
moritz it's the first proposed alias for Perl 6 that I actually liked
El_Che I am very fond of the rakudo name, but like zoffix I am in the everything-non-silly-is-better camp 13:41
CIAvash Zoffix: what do you mean by "We ban all blanket name changes"? 13:43
13:44 ChoHag left

Zoffix And I guess contested spaces (e.g. title of homepage) would just be the same as how bilingual countries do signs and stuf: "The Perl 6/Albus Programming Language" 13:46
pmurias Zoffix: re why having joint Perl 5&6 conferences makes sense, the vast majority of Perl 5 people at conferences like Perl 6 and a lot of people are part of both communities 13:48
13:49 cognominal-p6 joined 13:50 p6bannerbot sets mode: +v cognominal-p6, vike1 left
Zoffix pmurias: that wasn't my question tho. 13:50
CIAvash Zoffix: if people call it whatever they want, wouldn't that make it hard to find the content? I'm a bit confused, if the amount of the usage of a name is important, where does TimToady come in? 13:51
Zoffix pmurias: the question was: "Why is 'The Perl Conference' a perfect fit for a language named 'Perl 6'?" And that question was made in response to a claim that creating an alias would make it hard for people to find Alias conferences. Yet, they don't seem to have trouble finding them, without the language name being featured in the conferences right now 13:52
El_Che to be blunt, the perl5+6 communities are to small to have separated conferences 13:53
Zoffix CIAvash: by "whatever they want" I meant either "Perl 6" or $Alias. TimToady comes in to bless some particular alias so instead of using Camelia, Rakudo, Albus, the folks who don't want to use Perl 6 name can use a single thing 13:54
El_Che for people that use both, it's an advantage :)
pmurias Zoffix: 'The Perl Conference' name itself doesn't tell you if it's a Perl 5 or Perl 6 or both conference
Zoffix pmurias: yes, that's my point
CIAvash: as for finding content, yes it's not ideal, but IMO overall still better than doing nothing, especially since currently DuckDuckGo gives you Perl 5 content when you search for "perl6 argv" for example, so it's not like search is perfect at the moment. 13:55
CIAvash: and a pro: using alias in search will give you recent content instead of all those deeply outdated old Perl 6 articles :) 13:56
And I'll take search problems over The Damian being told not to mention the name of the language any day :) 13:59
Zoffix returns to being sick &
13:59 Zoffix left
pmurias Zoffix: get well soon 13:59
Zoffix: I understand why you want to do have an alias, but I think the choice of the alias is important, as a bad one doesn't seem like a win 14:01
moritz I don't think anybody disagrees with that 14:02
but it might help to decouple the discussion "do we want an alias name, assuming a good one can be found?" from the discussion "what should the alias name be?" 14:03

jdv79_ i dont get the name thing. its still a perl. as soon as someone see sigils theyll know. why try to obfu it... 16:59
timotimo could also be basic 17:00
or php
jdv79_ seems futile. everything has perl in it. modules.perl6, the irc chan names, the subreddit, etc... 17:02
like i said. i dont get it;)
AlexDaniel jdv79_: it depends, some people indeed see no problem with it. However, have you tried talking to somebody about perl 6? 17:09
was there any confusion?
jdv79_ no 17:10
its also in the code, the lang braid, tge gh artifacts, etc.
AlexDaniel there was no confusion or you don't talk about perl 6?
jdv79_ i talk of perl6 all the time. no confusion. 17:11
AlexDaniel so let me get this straight
jdv79_ cause at the outset i say perl as you know it is p5. im talking about p6.
any confusion is handled up front 17:12
AlexDaniel shrugs 17:14
that doesn't work for me
because in the end I'm the “perl guy” and stuff like that
lizmat why can't you be the "rakudo" guy ? 17:15
jdv79_ how would you explain to someone the compiler calks this lang in the braid Perl6 but you call it foobar?
AlexDaniel yes I'll take any alias once it is there
lizmat AlexDaniel: why couldn't you be the "rakudo" guy *now* ? 17:16
AlexDaniel because rakudo is a compiler, not the language
lizmat so? 17:17
AlexDaniel well, you see, I can play all kinds of games in the attempt to work around the confusion 17:18
but clarity is one of my goals when I speak
if I'm talking about the language, I want to call the language by its name
substituting it with the name of the compiler… is just weird 17:19
lizmat is it? I know
AlexDaniel so the person will go search for language rakudo and there's no language rakudo, it's perl 6
ah-ha, perl! OK now it's clear. Hehe
lizmat plenty of people in the car business that are "ford" or "citroën" or "peugeot" or "fiat" people
they're all car mechanics 17:20
but they identify with the brand they know best
and I do think you can apply such an analogy to Perl 6 / Rakudo / Fanlang / Niecza 17:21
AlexDaniel ehhh… I don't know, maybe you're right
lizmat "rakudo" 4 / 5 hits mention Perl 6 for me on google 17:22
actually 5/5
at DDG its 4/5
AlexDaniel well if on November 1st I'm told that my favorite programming language is rakudo, I'm fine with that. I'll use it 17:23
lizmat I'm telling you would be fine to use that now already :-)
Google / DDG will back you up that you're not fantasising 17:24
AlexDaniel I don't like muddying the distinction between the language and the compiler, not until Nov 1st at least…

El_Che I get AlexDaniel's point about talking with other people. I have exactly the same experience. 17:36
(About the rakudo name, I love it and I don't care about the lang/compiler collision if it means we get a good name) 17:37
I am introducing perl6 in production in small CI/containers related tasks, but I refer the code as Rakudo and not Perl 6. The devops code is mostly Go, and the Perl 5 code some teams use is very old school Perl 5. 17:39
ugexe I'm a software engineer. I've work as one for many years. I've work with many other software engineers. I've always been the Perl6 guy at the last 4 places I've worked ( before 6.c ).

This has involved me teaching colleagues, invitings others such as jnthn to talk with colleagues, raising money from

ugexe The Perl name has *never* been a deteriment to any of these accomplishments, and if anything contributed towards these things happening at all. I think the seconds long snippet of larry mentioning the possiblity of an alias have been overblown. Why aren't alias backers out there testing their theory and emulating the Damian talk and making up a name and mentioning it at the end? But I'm not a marketer, i'm a
software engineer, so maybe it doesn't matter what I think. Maybe making the language easier for marketers to market is worth looking like amateur hour.

tobs I have to say Curses::UI:from<Perl5> looks more convenient than what is in the p6 ecosystem. I haven't tried it out yet, though.
CIAvash shmup: It means the json value is an item so you need to decontainerize it. In this case you can also use the list method on it. docs.perl6.org/routine/%3C%3E 18:23
tobs davidp: hmm, "safe to use", I don't know. If you're not worried that it deletes all your files when you touch it or something like that, the modules has an example directory. 18:24

AlexDaniel lizmat: it's a full-blown introduction to perl 6, written in proper Russian. I wonder what their inspiration was (were they looking at docs.perl6.org or something else?), but so far it looks original… which makes me wonder why didn't they publish it as a book or something like that 20:02

uzl Hello, #perl6! 21:30

uzl I'm reading docs.perl6.org/type/Signature and there are multiple sentences where one finds 'default default'. The sentences seem to make sense with only one 'default' so I'm wondering if it's a just a typo or some meaning behind it. 21:32
timotimo default default actually makes sense in signatures 21:34
if you have $foo = 5, then 5 is the default for $foo, but if you just use $foo? you'll get the default default instead
though it'd surely be helpful - especially for non-native speakers - to point it out a little more clearly? 21:35
the first occurence of "default default" seems to explain what that means, without explaining explicitly that a "default default" is A Thing™ 21:36
uzl yeah, it makes after you explained but at first sight it's like 'What?'.
mniip "implicit default" perhaps 21:39
timotimo i think that'd be an improvement
Geth doc/master: 4 commits pushed by Coke++ 21:43
geekosaur someone might make the same change to the haskell language report, for that matter 21:45
Geth doc: uzluisf++ created pull request #2366:
Rephase sentence and fix minor typo
21:47
mniip geekosaur, are you talking about default default or hascell? 21:48
geekosaur "default default" (look at the report's definition of the "default" declaration)
mniip I don't see a "default default" in there 21:50
only "If no default declaration is given in a module then it assumed to be: ..."

uzl .tell AlexDaniel Not directly related with a Russian tutorial but I've been working in a Spanish translation of 23:12
yoleaux uzl: I'll pass your message to AlexDaniel.
uzl .tell AlexDaniel 'Think Perl 6' and a while back I asked for a (community?) review of the translation. Lately
yoleaux uzl: I'll pass your message to AlexDaniel.
uzl .tell AlexDaniel I've been working with the index terms which I didn't take of while translating the main content. 23:13

AlexDaniel .
yoleaux 23:13Z <uzl> AlexDaniel: I've been working with the index terms which I didn't take of while translating the main content.
AlexDaniel I'm here! :)
uzl: Spanish translation! Have you talked to jmerelo?
uzl Oh, didn't notice it! ;)
AlexDaniel: I don't think so. Well, at least not specifically about a review. 23:17
AlexDaniel .tell jmerelo by any chance are you interested in this? colabti.org/irclogger/irclogger_log...10-07#l884 23:18
yoleaux AlexDaniel: I'll pass your message to jmerelo.
AlexDaniel uzl: is it public, by the way? Your translation I mean 23:19
timotimo jnthn: i'm not sure i understand "there's still lots more to be had. which is a good job, since ..."; like, the "a good job" part?
uzl AlexDaniel: uzluisf.gitlab.io/piensaperl6/ <- It has a link to the gitlab repo. 23:20
AlexDaniel awesome, in LaTeX! jmerelo is the right person :) 23:22
as long as they have time of course
uzl That's what I realized. JJ might not have the spare time to do so. 23:23
But I guess there's not rush. 23:24

k-man morning 23:30
timotimo greetings k-man
k-man p14 of learning perl6 says i can get info on perl6 language variables by doing "p6doc language/variables"
but its not found oh my system
ooh 23:31
maybe because i didn't source my .bashrc in that term
nope, that's not it
hi timotimo
hmmm... p6doc should have a document about p6doc imho 23:34
p6doc on its own seems to work 23:35
timotimo you may not yet have p6doc installed 23:36
k-man i do have it, it works
timotimo oh!
k-man 'p6doc variables' seems to find a document
i think its a typo or outdated info in the book 23:37
timotimo learing perl6 is really new, though
k-man yeah
i know 23:38
timotimo i haven't used the p6doc tool in a long long time
all the perl6 doc stuff is on the doc.perl6.org site, too, if that helps :\
k-man timotimo, yeah, i found it 23:41
just wanted to be sure it wasn't me doing it wrong, and more likely an error in the book
i sent an errata note

k-man thanks [Coke]! 23:48
i found 2 errata and I'm only up to p14 :( 23:49
should have done this before it was printed
ugexe re perl 5&6 having conferences/summits split up -- how many conferences do you attend? because i really hope that such an argument is coming from attendees. or donating for p6 developers to go to PTS 23:56
or do we just expect this shit to figure itself out? 23:58
