pmichaud I'm currently about 700km (ahem, we use *miles* here, so 435 mi) north of you. 02:05
lizmat well, that's more than we drove today… 02:06
pmichaud oh, wait.
lizmat if you'd be in Amsterdam, we'd be in mid France
pmichaud that's round-trip distance.
350km (217 mi)
lizmat ah. that's more like: if we would be at home, you would be in Groningen… about the max distance you can do in the Netherlands :-) 02:07
pmichaud right.
if you go due south, then in about 325 miles you finally hit the Mexico border.
lesson: Everything's Big in Texas. :) 02:08
anyway, glad you arrived safely.
I look forward to seeing you this weekend.
02:09 gdey joined
colomon I'll get there Saturday around dinner time, I think. 02:09
pmichaud I don't know exactly when I'll arrive on Saturday, I'd like to get an early start, but I have to make sure everything is well-set at home before departing.
I think I'll try to arrive by 8pm or so, which is when I think jnthn/masak/others will likely be arriving. 02:10
lizmat looking forward to that!
pmichaud I might not be able to get there until midnight, though.
02:11 grondilu left
pmichaud I'll /msg folks my cell # so you can call and find out where I'm at. 02:11

pmichaud checks weather 02:13
lizmat ~34±1
pmichaud yeah
looks like the forecast got warmer since I last looked 02:14
but Texas weather is very unpredictable.
as of two days ago, we were forecast for a sunny weekend, now we're forecast for rain+storms on the weekend

sorear yeah, "remember the alamo" is basically all I remember from that day in grade-school US history :[ wikipedia to the rescue! 03:02
shachaf Remember "Remember the Alamo!"!
pmichaud don't worry about it too much; I had a girlfriend from Sacramento who was visiting San Antonio with me, and she saw a sign with directions to "The Alamo" and asked... "oh, is there a plaque or something there?" :-P 03:03
(note to non-Texans: It's a Spanish Mission with a chapel (the iconic building) and tours. 03:05

08:14 muixirt joined
moritz why shouldn't ulimit work? 08:15
you just have to be careful which memory you limit (hint: ulimit -v is most often what you want)
bonsaikitten it does
ulimit -m 256000 # 256 metric Mibblibytes 08:16
and if you have multiple processes ... cgroups are fun (although the memory cg is usually disabled)

masak wow, www.cs.ucf.edu/~dcm/Teaching/COT48...Backus.pdf is a really interesting observation, considering that it comes all the way from 1978. 12:10
much of what it points out as disadvantages is still very much "unsolved".
well, unless you're a full-time Haskell programmer. but most of us aren't.
there are some silver linings even in the industry: things like LINQ, and Rx, and various non-mainstream languages (Scala, CLojure, F#) nibbling away at how to do things nicely with FP. 12:12

mathw hybrid languages are where it's going to be for a good while I think 12:24
there are some astonishingly powerful ideas floating around in the Haskell world these days, but I'm not convinced Haskell itself is the right language to bring those wonderful things to the world at large with 12:25
I hope to see Microsoft do more with F#, the level of tooling in Visual Studio for it really relegates it to a second-class citizen
12:26 eternaleye left
mathw They don't bother providing tools for things like ASP.NET MVC projects in F# because their position is that it's not meant for that kind of work. Why, I ask, can't it be? 12:26
It does support all the necessary behaviours after all
masak *nod*
mathw It's still cheating, but it's closer...
I must admit to really missing Haskell typeclasses though 12:27
wonderful, wonderful things
It's like if C# let you add an interface implementation to an object without having the ability to modify its class
and yes there are extension methods, but they're not the same either
I want... roles! 12:28
masak Go seems to do something similar-ish with its interfaces.
it's an idea whose time has come.
inheritance hierarchies are so 20th century. :) 12:29
12:30 eternaleye joined, FieldsaBB joined
mathw definitely 12:31
I use inheritance less and less
heck, I use objects less and less
my C# code is now strewn with static classes
objects have their place, but so much can be done with other ways and it seems to work better 12:32
if I have to make an instance of some object in order to do something like a data transform I tend to start turning my nose up
and plotting to write a wrapper function that hides the mess
12:35 mtk left 12:36 konundra joined
mathw probably the thing that distresses me most in C# programming is where you're in the shiny new world of LINQ and pseudo-functional programming and you run headlong into a library you can't avoid that's designed like something from Java 1.2 12:36

[Coke] all three implementations now dirty. 17:48
pmichaud I don't expect R* to have jvm until july at earliest.
with emphasis on "at earliest"
jnthn pmichaud: I've had R* more like September 17:49
pmichaud jnthn: that works for me, too.
[Coke] once it's at a point it can run *any* spec tests, I'll probably add it to the roast figures.
pmichaud R* wants stability more than anything else, and it's not just the compiler but the modules that would want some working out.
[Coke] then you can get a pretty picture of what happens when you add some bit. 17:50
pmichaud we'll likely spend a good part of midsummer figuring out what modules R* really ought to have.
jnthn [Coke]: Getting into the daily roast, once it can do that, would be great. 17:52

(today is deadline, but they usually take about two weeks to send a demand note, and the first one is free :-)
Teratogen moritz do what I do, always do a 1040EZ 20:20

TimToady Teratogen: he's not a USian
Teratogen oh!
well then!
TimToady and he has a family
[Coke] bah. I have to deal with taxes for work all the time, and now on perl6? ENOFUN. ;) 20:22
moritz [Coke]: sorry for brining it up 20:23
Teratogen yeah I guess a bachelor living in an apartment who owns no stocks or land or anything has a simpler tax picture!
masak hugs [Coke]
[Coke] is merely trolling and is in no way sad. 20:25
[Coke] hopes your taxes are easier to file than my company's. :)
moritz [Coke]: I'm quite sure they are 20:26
pmichaud I spent much of yesterday and today filling out insurance applications. Definitely easier than taxes, but still not fun.
moritz it's just annoying and fiddly work, not really complicated 20:27

supernovus In the release notes it says postcircumfix:<[ ]> and postcirumfix:<{ }> are becoming subs instead of methods. How does that work? 20:31
sorear why does TimToady have a hat today? 20:32
20:33 ChanServ sets mode: -o TimToady
moritz supernovus: currently the methods dispatch to methods .at_pos and at_key 20:33
supernovus: a sub can do that too
sorear supernovus: I'm told it works in approximately the way it's always worked in niecza
diakopter sorear: are you on [email@hidden.address] or were you one of the multitudes who unsubscribed
moritz (first they do slicing and such, and then redispatch to at_pos)

supernovus How does the sub know what object instance called it? Also, afaik 'self' is not available in a sub... I'm a bit confused. :/ 20:36

sorear supernovus: how does a postfix:<foo> sub get an argument? 20:38
masak rn: sub foo($object) { say "OH HAI, $object" }; "supernovus".&foo() 20:39
camelia rakudo cd5ca7, niecza v24-55-g7942a09: OUTPUT«OH HAI, supernovus␤»
supernovus Ah, so instead of method postcircumfix:<[ ]> ($offset) { ... } , I'd use sub postcircumfix:<[ ]> ($object, $offset) { ... } ?
20:39 konundra left
moritz multi sub 20:40
TimToady well, subscripts can be more complicated than that, but essentially yes
moritz but yes, that's the general idea
supernovus the biggest difference I guess being that it can no longer access private variables...
TimToady it's likely to be a primitive that can access anything it jolly well pleases 20:41
jnthn supernovus: at_pos and at_key are typically better things to override
(They stay as methods.)
TimToady subscripting is an important optimization target
jnthn Yeah.
TimToady and having it as methods tends to work against that 20:42
supernovus Hmm, well, XML's tests still all pass, so I'm guessing this change hasn't happened quite yet?
jnthn I mean, if postcircumfix:<[ ]> is a sub, the inliner can inline it.
supernovus: No, it's upcoming.
supernovus: I'll see if there can be a decent migration path. 20:43
supernovus I'll try changing XML to use at_pos and at_key and see what happens.
TimToady and for known types, especially compact arrays, it can do much more
jnthn Right.
It was when I was thinking about compact arrays that I hit upon wanting this change.
diakopter sorear: as long as you don't critique my code in moarvm, I won't run away crying. we all know a C novice's code is going to not be superb. ;) 20:44
20:44 grondilu left
supernovus Yay, changing to at_pos and at_key worked great. Simpler to remember method names too :-) 20:46
20:48 SmokeMachine joined
supernovus Is there an underlying method for postcircumfix:<( )> ? 20:50
20:52 donaldh joined
moritz no 20:53
supernovus Is it changing to a sub too? I have at least one library that uses it.
moritz I don't think so, at least not for now 20:54
tadzik ehh, my nqp now reliably segfaults
moritz invocation is tricky
tadzik gist.github.com/tadzik/5687913 20:55
