pinskian anyone studies open systems for thermodynamics? 08:21
oops
pinskian whats a good news site 11:19
besides digg
moritz_ slashdot ;) 11:23
use.perl.org
rgs perlbuzz.com
moritz_ right
wolverian my google reader 11:27
funktio reddit 11:28
my favourite
wolverian reddit's main page is useless
programming.reddit is cool 11:29
moritz_ and if you can read german, heise.de
they have an english news ticker as well, but it sucks
trexy delurking for a moment to drop an idea into the meme pool ,,, 17:22
moritz_ trexy: go ahead ;) 17:23
without activity #perl6 is quite lonely ;)
trexy did someone suggest on1 as the name for the next compiler
?
"on1" that is ... 17:24
moritz_ not yet
trexy well ... I suppose I just did
o(N)
O(n)
moritz_ ah
trexy kind of like O notation
moritz_ but then the name should be o1, no? 17:25
trexy and we all know O(1) is pretty cool
maybe ... just a thought
ebassi on+ (like ion notation)? I know I'm bad at punning
moritz_
.oO( but O(1) = O(6) ;-)
17:26
trexy yes ... just a thought 17:27
on1on
moritz_ on1no ;-)
trexy symmetrical! 17:28
although a bit tricky to say 17:29
moritz_ yes ;)
trexy that was the problem when Prince rebranded
no one could say his name - except "the artist formally known as Prince"
which was a bit of a mouthful
moritz_ exPrince ;) 17:30
but nobody would have recognized that
trexy purple guy with big hair, white doves and guitar 17:31
moritz_ maybe we just need a completely unrelated name
trexy "distinctiveness" is the no1 feature of a brand
perl6 will be a distinctive language --- and it needs a power brand to go with it 17:32
moritz_ searches for good name in /dev/urandom
trexy ;-)
just don't get 666 17:33
that's taken
moritz_ maybe we should use the name of a chemical element 17:34
or a planet
trexy just for the record I think Perl foundation should have a master brand and all major subprojects should have interlocking sub-brands 17:35
planetperl
with sub-planets 17:36
moritz_ trexy: recorded here: irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2007-11-09#i_142119 *SCNR*
lambdabot Title: IRC log for #perl6, 2007-11-09
trexy kudos being sucked gravitationally speaking to the master brand
at the moment perl's branding is leaking goodwill 17:38
gotta go --- but good luck! 17:40
quit
spinclad shallot 18:44
but then who would be the lady?
spinclad i see some signs of 'Garlic' as a rename for On6 18:47
moritz_ I'm gathering supporters for that idea ;) 18:51
anyway, I don't think anything will happen before pmichaud makes clear if he wants to use "onion" as name 18:52
spinclad i'd be happy with Garlic(k)
spinclad & # lunch 18:56
lichtkind is slurp actual perl 6? 19:00
?eval say (2,3) minmax (2,3)
?eval say 'minmax' 19:01
where is evilbot?
moritz_ lichtkind: use 'pugs:' or 'kp6:' 19:05
lichtkind pugs: say 'minmax' 19:06
exp_evalbot OUTPUT[minmax␤]
lichtkind ah
pugs: say (2,3) minmax (2,3) 19:07
exp_evalbot OUTPUT[*** No such subroutine: "&infix:minmax"␤ at /tmp/1Vi8PXulfZ line 1, column 1 - line 2, column 1␤]
lichtkind kp6: say (2,3) minmax (2,3)
exp_evalbot r18830: OUTPUT[error in Block at compiled/perl5-kp6-mp6/lib/KindaPerl6/Grammar/Sub.pm line 753, <> line 1.␤*** Syntax Error in Block: missing closing curly bracket } ␤]
lichtkind minmax seems to be forgotten :( 19:11
cj TreyHarris: I'm thinking about you. 19:22
TreyHarris: what's that module you wrote for system command execution / rollback management?
TreyHarris cj: Commands::Guarded. I need to do a maintenance release, when I get enough tuits... 19:24
cj TreyHarris: danke. 19:25
TreyHarris: I haven't heard a peep out of you recently. Did you end up working with Scott & Colin?
TreyHarris cj: no, i'm in New York now. Working with Phil Moore at Merrill Lynch. 19:26
i used to work with him at Morgan Stanley before I went to Seattle.
cj TreyHarris: ah. Well, the city misses you :) 19:27
TreyHarris :)
cj how's NY.pm doing? 19:28
TreyHarris dunno, haven't had a chance to check
TreyHarris &'s to switch back to the corp VPN 19:30
fglock what does minmax() do? 23:06
Limbic_Region my guess - return the min and max of a list 23:12
