flussence seems like doing those 16 .substr calls per iteration is taking up 25% of the execution time, which is unfortunate. 00:01

colomon thanks 00:03
timotimo i fixed it! 00:05
colomon looking at it, it seems to me that the argumentless comb is a pretty good candidate to be recoded at a lower level. 00:06
btw, that's more than 16 substr calls 00:07
r: say 0xFF - 0xA1
camelia rakudo b2072f: OUTPUT«94␤»
colomon it's 94 of them
flussence it's 16 when I do that manual method a few lines above
colomon oh, yes, I see 00:09
flussence: so the point of this test is just that is pure does cause Rakudo to hoist the calls out of the loop? 00:11
flussence that's what I was looking at, seems it did nothing though 00:12
colomon flussence: did you have reason to suspect it would work? I haven't heard anything about is pure optimizations, though I would be delighted if some of them were in there... 00:13
flussence nah, was just curious

flussence yeah, I kinda understand what you're asking for, just not how to make it work :) 02:50
colomon `patch`: perlcabal.org/syn/S11.html#Runtime_Importation is the area in the spec you want to be looking, I think, but it's something I've never tried to do before. 02:51
`patch` thanks, i'll take a look. i imagine it's possible that this is not implemented, eh? 02:52

FROGGS would this make sense? my $x = async heavy_operation(); do_something_while_it _computes(); say $x # which would wait until the thread finished... (like join) 03:48

eternaleye FROGGS: Sorry for taking so long, but futures and promises can be thought of as 'handles' to asynchronous computation. In C++, for instance, a future gives you a promise, which you get the value from like joining a thread, an the default implementation is done with a thread pool. 06:30
FROGGS: Examples: www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk/thr...mises.html 06:32
rough p6ification: Future[Int] answer = async do_foo(); other_stuff(); say answer.get() # Returns Int 06:33
I read this as "async do_foo will give me an Int in the Future. In the meantime, I'll do other_stuff, then wait until I get the answer" 06:35

and wanted to test it
timotimo ah
moritz and found that I only had a rakudo-on-jvm locally :-)
timotimo should i add it and give it an error message?
moritz and was annoyed by the error message I got from the jvm-based stuff 12:02
Method 'foo' not found
why didn't you find it? because it wasn't there. Why don't you tell me so?
timotimo: rather implement it :-)
timotimo the restricted setting should be capable of copying things around? what's the semantics it should have? 12:04
deny every source or destination that's not in /tmp?
moritz no, not the restricted setting
the normal one
or does that have .copy already?
timotimo it's already implemented in the regular setting
moritz oh, ok
then I misunderstood
then yes, an error in CORE.restricted wouldn't hurt
timotimo i even turned panda and File::Utils over from .IO.copy to .path.copy so that it wouldn't spit 50 deprecation errors per installed package 12:05
12:05 chinaXing joined 12:06 flaviusb joined

flussence that page could use a separate thing for "no tests ran"... 13:28
tadzik colomon: I remember something about Failure, but that's sort of fixed in emmentaler now 13:29
colomon tadzik: the issue is that you deleted the custom "die" statements in several of the modules (building and testing at least, I think), meaning that panda is returning X::AdHoc. But there was a lot of information stored in X::Panda that's missing from that. 13:30
tadzik aah
of course
flussence
.oO( I wish there was a way in META.info to list native libraries as prereqs for nativecall )
colomon And I'm pretty sure panda internal only checks for X::Panda errors, so (last time I checked) it wasn't registering build or test stage errors. 13:31
My emmentaler patch just made it pay attention to any and all exceptions, reporting them as prereq failures. 13:33
One of the thing X::Panda does is say way stage the error happened in. 13:34
tadzik yes 13:35
I must've broke it with panda2

you're probably aware of difftool
colomon .... aware of diff, anyway
tadzik you're also probably aware that it's pretty useless for a webpage, as webpages don't use ansi colour codes 14:01
oh, I mean difftool, from emmentaler
so I wondered, would it be helpful to have a module like Term::ANSIColor that also works for HTML colours if needed?
colomon tadzik: actually, never looked at difftool before!

flussence timotimo: there you go
colomon tadzik: I was just thinking it be polite to allow people to opt out. 14:04
tadzik that too
details, details :)
colomon for that matter, I wonder if we could just file an issue for the module on github?
tadzik that should be possible
colomon This thinking is probably a bit premature, so far we've had spurious errors on something like 5% of the smoke test runs. 14:05
getting false error reports would probably make people stop paying attention.
tadzik yeah

colomon (wife and kids)++ 15:06
timotimo what's the sanest way to have a class that has lots and lots of methods, that you could computationally generate rather than type out
colomon timotimo: generate on the fly or generate once and have forever? 15:07
tadzik timotimo: look at Redis client in our module db
it uses such technique
timotimo colomon: i'm thinking; this is about porting python's blessings module, which has a class with lots and lots of methods like .on_green or .red or .invert or .move_to and they are autogenerated 15:09
i'm thinking about how i can generate them once, but still make them properly depend on the terminal that's currently in use
15:09 berekuk joined
colomon timotimo: I guess I see three possible approaches. 15:10
1) My standard C++ approach: write a Perl script to generate the class definition(s)
2) Simple Perl 6 solution: class contains a hash from "method name" to &code block 15:11
flussence
.oO( macros )
timotimo i don't think macros are powerful enough yet
colomon 3) Fancy Perl 6 solution; Actually add the methods to the class at run time using meta-object protocol.
tadzik or in compile-time
the old Simple-Redis did that 15:12

dalek ast: b293ce3 | (Solomon Foster)++ | S02-types/set.t:
Change .set calls to .Set.
arnsholt If you just need one (or a few) variants, you can use the is symbol trait to have several versions of the same function
But if client code of your lib needs to be able to pass more or less anything, it's not really possible ATM, I'm afraid 18:05

it's about the tparm function from ncurses. maybe it will only ever have up to 9 arguments 18:06

tadzik .comb() is the news .split(''):) 20:08
20:08 logie left, ruoso left, bloonix left, broquaint left, fgomez left, xinming left, bruges_ left, rafl joined 20:09 shachaf_ joined, sergot joined, shachaf left, shachaf_ left, shachaf_ joined, shachaf_ is now known as shachaf, odoacre_ joined 20:10 konundra joined 20:11 xinming_ joined, sivoais left
Ulti tadzik I'd rather golf "Matt".split('').reverse.join down to "Matt".flip ;P is .comb implemented in a tighter way? 20:11
20:11 apejens joined 20:12 Psyche^ joined, tgt left, Patterner left, Psyche^ is now known as Patterner
Ulti seriously though it would be nice if "".reverse kind of failed or gave you a warning 20:12
"did you really mean to reverse a single item string? maybe you mean .flip" 20:13
maybe something like use 5to6warnings

eternaleye .tell FROGGS Sorry for taking so long, but futures and promises can be thought of as 'handles' to asynchronous computation. In C++, for instance, a future is a container-ish-thing, which you get the value from like joining a thread, and the default implementation is done with a thread pool. 21:46
yoleaux eternaleye: I'll pass your message to FROGGS.
eternaleye .tell FROGGS Examples: www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk/thr...mises.html
yoleaux eternaleye: I'll pass your message to FROGGS.
eternaleye .tell FROGGS rough p6ification: Future[Int] answer = async do_foo(); other_stuff(); say answer.get() # Returns Int
yoleaux eternaleye: I'll pass your message to FROGGS.
eternaleye .tell FROGGS I read this as "async do_foo will give me an Int in the Future. In the meantime, I'll do other_stuff, then wait until I get the answer"
yoleaux eternaleye: I'll pass your message to FROGGS.
eternaleye .tell FROGGS Actually, a parameterized Future role as the return value of async might work pretty well. 21:47

timotimo_ :kv:p:k isn't actually a combination that'll work, right? 23:31
lizmat "An implementation is free to silently ignore any other combinations or silently prefer one of the adverbs given above any other." 23:35
23:35 rurban joined
timotimo_ ouch 23:35
lizmat currently, :kv is implemented before :p and before :k, so that will just do :kv
timotimo_ that seems like a recipe for trouble :(
lizmat do you want illegal combinations to die ? 23:36

timotimo_ haven't given it much thought yet, but i think that would be a good idea 23:37
