moritz_ hell is object oriented? :-) 10:11
masak that's a bit harsh :) 10:12
but yes, that sounds likely.
Juerd Would it have roles?
Inheritance seems somewhat unlikely 10:13
moritz_ I've once read something, I think it was on perlmonks, "the real world is not object oriented" 10:14
it talked about gradual changes
is dusk an object?
10:15 [particle] joined 10:20 m__ joined
m__ hell oo 10:21
10:21 m_ left
masak the real world isn't object-oriented. people's models of it often are. 10:21
but even the models break down at some point.
m__ why oo? 10:22
suck paradigm
masak the challenge is to make the OO design out of models that break down far enough from the "interesting" parts of the application.
m__: I understand from your locutions that you don't like OO. that's fine. there are other ways to program. 10:23
m__ interesting parts?
i dont like oo but need to use oo for some 10:24
masak yes, the parts that the user finds useful in the application.
m__: you're in good company. ALexander Stepanov doesn't like OO either: secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/...r_Stepanov 10:25

like its predecessor, it's multi-paradigm 10:54
m_ howto quite hard?
daxim sorry, I cannot parse that
m_ not hard? 10:55
daxim not hard if you already know the fundamentals of programming
m_ how good for perl6? 10:56
daxim I can't say for certain, why don't you read some documentation and see how far it takes you? 10:57

masak colomon++ # blogging about challenge.greplin.com/ solved in Perl 6 12:37
colomon I still haven't gotten around to putting up the 2nd challenge, which is a shame, because the code is pretty. :) 12:38
moritz_ my code is ugly, short and works :-) 12:39
oh, martian fluxx :-) 12:40
takadonet working code > fast code > pretty code
moritz_ bought that too, and also python fluxx
colomon I may exaggerate the prettiness of my code, I haven't looked at it since I wrote it at 3am. ;)
I just remember looking at the comments (on hacker news) of the python guys who were so pleased with themselves for having some quick matrix solution to Fibonacci numbers and thinking how much lovelier the p6 sequence was... 12:41
takadonet colomon: url? 12:42
12:42 _kaare left
colomon takadonet: errr... hard drive of my big linux box? ;) 12:42
gist.github.com/623953 12:43
not as pretty as I thought in the cold light of day.
but I think it will clean up nicely.
moritz_ have you tried the dynamic programming approach that a commenter left on your blog? 12:44
colomon moritz_: nope, but I'm excited about it. 12:45
12:45 Schwern left
colomon I think my spare time has been too occupied trying to build a colony ship in Lacuna Expanse 12:45
moritz_ :-) 12:46
nopaste.snit.ch/24373 that's my solution
colomon what challenge two really made me want to do is a prime number module for p6. 12:47
moritz_ too
I was close to writing one, actually :-)
colomon something that reasonably efficiently generates the list of them.
me too.
moritz_ :-) 12:48
colomon my best schemes seemed to involve an infinite sequence whose generator looked at the already generated elements.
Math::Prime, do you reckon? 12:49
moritz_
.oO( write a fast-ish C function, use it via NativeCall.pm)
colomon we should do it both ways. :) 12:51
moritz_ and with rabin-miller statistical tests for big numbers 12:52
erm, forgot that we don't have big ints yet :-)
masak what would it take for Rakudo to have big ints? 12:57
13:00 xsloader left
moritz_ that's a good question 13:01
in first approximation, a bigint type, and mapping integer overflows to that type
but I fear that in the end that's not practical - rakudo goes through get_integer vtables, and those require us to return native ints 13:02
which are non-big
masak a bigint type could be written today.
but yes, the other problems sound non-trivial. :/
moritz_ maybe I should write a mail to parrot-dev 13:03
frettled \o/
_someone_ doing IPv6 stuff might be happy 13:04
(128-bit yummies)
moritz_ frettled: there's a patch for both parrot adn rakudo ipv6 support in trac/rt 13:05
masak we already have 128 bit native ints in the spec, IIRC.
moritz_ frettled: it just needs test
frettled moritz_: aha!
masak: yep, IIRC, there's int32, int64 and int128, or somesuch 13:06
masak yep.
13:07 wamba left 13:08 wamba joined
colomon we talked about bigints at YAPC::NA, seems Parrot already has (had?) some sort of support for it. 13:10
moritz_ yes; I think there' a bigint pmc if you have libgmp available, or so 13:11
but I don't see how that's usable as "the" Int type for a HLL 13:12
13:12 wamba left 13:14 wamba joined 13:15 slavik joined
moritz_ btw I've been wishing for an 'identity' function or method a few times 13:16
13:17 Italian_Plumber joined
moritz_ probably all the use cases were rather bad, but I had surprisingly many of them during the last few weeks 13:17
somthing like:
masak rakudo: my &id = method { self }; say 42.&id()
p6eval rakudo 5d23e3: OUTPUT«42␤»
masak voilà. 13:18
moritz_ rakudo: my @f = -> $x { $x }, *+2, * * 2; for @f -> &f { .say for map &f, 1..5 }
p6eval rakudo 5d23e3: OUTPUT«1␤2␤3␤4␤5␤3␤4␤5␤6␤7␤2␤4␤6␤8␤10␤»
13:19 Patterner left
masak maybe term:<*> could be used for that... 13:19
moritz_ on one hand, I like the idea; otoh I'm not sure it's good to overload * even more 13:20
masak same here. 13:21
just throwing it out because it seems an "obvious" solution.
moritz_ another would be augment class Mu { method id() is export { self } } 13:22
rakudo: my $f = method a() { self }; say $f(42) 13:23
p6eval rakudo 5d23e3: OUTPUT«Useless declaration of has-scoped Method in a module; add our or my to install it in the lexpad or namespace␤Suba (subid "72_1286974775.88871") has no $!llsig and no $!lazysig␤ in main program body at line 7257:CORE.setting␤»
moritz_ should that work? :-)
rakudo: my $f = my method a() { self }; say $f(42) 13:24
p6eval rakudo 5d23e3: OUTPUT«42␤»
moritz_ o/
masak moritz_: if you name a method outside of a class, you must use 'my' or 'our', IIUC. 13:25
moritz_: because the default is 'has', and it doesn't apply outside of a class/role body.
moritz_ rakudo: my $f = method () { self }; say $f(42)

masak can anyone think of a slightly nicer way to write that?
preferably without the slicing of the infinite sequence.
colomon what's wrong with the slicing? it seems very tidy 13:57

anyway, it's not really the Horner scheme anymore if you do the exponentiation.

is the semicolon really needed in rosettacode.org/wiki/Empty_program#Perl_6 ? 14:16
seems if one strives to write the shortest valid program one ought to avoid it...

let me re-check S01
"Also, a file with a .p6 extension may be taken as indicative, as may any other extension containing the digit 6, such as p6l or p6m or pl6 or pm6" 14:18

if you do, I can reply to him. 15:41
frettled For FIPS: www.openssl.org/docs/fips/fipsnotes.html
masak I don't understand what that page is saying :/ 15:42

masak I'll let someone who does reply. 15:42
takadonet thanks for the defence guys!
frettled masak: I'm also looking to see what there is. I know that 0.9.7 wasn't feature complete in terms of some certificates, and ISTR that there are still some issues with strong crypto 15:44

frettled Hmm, it appears that the caveats are gone from the OpenSSL site. I really should check in more often than every few years. 15:48
Anyway, the question to him was more on the general note that from his point of view, OpenSSL was not production ready until this year, yet he probably had been using it (more or less wittingly) for many years before that. 15:51
…and OpenSSL is hardly the only such software — software with versions below 1.0.0 — in regular use.
takadonet Perl5 Moose is a very good example 15:54

masak we are technically right... but there's a point at which our arguments to prove our point start to sound like elaborate excuses for Perl 6 not being 1.0 yet. :/ 15:59

sorear alester: do you think I should plug Niecza's low level OS thread binding as a point to build off of? 18:59
alester I don't know what any of what you just said refers to.
but that's OK
All I need is someone in Perl 6 world to be a point of contact to collect whatever people want to say about Perl 6 threads.
sorear My implementation of Perl 6 has OS thread support (only) 19:00
Thread.new({ ... }); my $m = Monitor.new; $m.lock; $m.unlock;
alester sorear: Stop
sorear actually it's a wrapper around .NET threads
alester I don't care about threads.
I am just trying to get people with ideas together with the people designing.

skids alester: if it's only for a week or so to read irc backlogs and post them on the PerlBuzz comments I could do that. Can't promise to be especially prompt about it, but I can try for once a day. 20:10
alester I want an email address that people can send to.
I think if it requires logging in and making a comment on Perlbu, people won't do it.
skids Ah, my email's a bit dicey. I'm not on p6l either. (I meant, I could read backlogs here and post a summary to the perlbuzz comments.) 20:11
alester Here's what I need. "Perl 6 people are asking about threads stuff. We are looking for information about blah blah. If you have input, please email [email@hidden.address] 20:12
Who is the [email@hidden.address]
shortcircuit alester: It's completely not written (and not even started), but there was a concept spec I wrote for cross-channel monitoring you might abuse for the purpose. mmol-6453.livejournal.com/213900.html 20:13
No good at summarization, I'm afraid, but it might be useful for keyword triggering for shorter relavent logs. 20:14
skids Yeah, I greylist, so it doesn't play nice with some people's systems. Usually not a problem but with a bunch of new people mailing I wouldn't want to be bouncing hard-written comments. Sorry.
shortcircuit doesn't think he'll ever have time to get around to writing nexusbot, though. 20:15
alester Here's what I think we actually need for this to be useful: "I'd love to get that input. Have them send comments to me!" When that person steps forward, we can run with it.
skids will certainly send input to said person, though :-) 20:16

PhatEddy When make spectest_smolder runs t/harness the Makefile ignores the return code from t/harness. 21:34
I think this is a mistake because t/harness doesn't build the archive until it's done and returns 0 even if tests fail. Any thoughts on fixing that?
