| PerlJam finding it really hard to write a few paragraphs for the book on the relationship between Perl 5 and Perl 6 | 03:18 | ||
| Here are all of my false starts (each paragraph can be viewed separately). gist.github.com/b9def098efdd3e5d09c9 | 03:19 | ||
| Each contains the kernel of an idea that I was thinking of exploring | 03:20 | ||
| chromatic | They all feel rubbery because the whole idea of selling Perl 6 as "not the obvious successor to Perl 5" is a rubbery idea. | 04:03 | |

| jnthn | oh hai | 10:58 | |
| I just reviewed hangman.p6 | |||
| We do | |||
| my $alphabet = join '', 'a'..'z'; | |||
| And only use it in | |||
| if not defined(index($alphabet,$guess)) { | |||
| Could we not somehow have used smart-matching against the range (maybe too liberal) or just | |||
| if $guess eq any('a'..'z') { ... } | 10:59 | ||
| Also | 11:02 | ||
| if join('',@blanks) eq $word { say "\\t\\tYou Win!"; last; } | |||
| Maybe we can name @blanks something a little better? | |||
| moritz_ | jnthn: if $guess eq any('a'..'z') { ... } | 11:29 | |

| PerlJam | jnthn: sure, tmtowtdi after all. The original was an exercise in conceptual minimality though. Introduce just enough stuff to get through what scalars, arrays, hashesh, subroutines, etc. are, but not go into what objects are or what smart matching is, or hyper/meta ops, or junctions, or other "more advanced" things | 14:33 | |
| s/hashesh/hashes/ | |||
| jnthn | True...it just looked really odd to write it using index. | 14:35 | |
| PerlJam | Everybody look at github.com/perl6/book/blob/master/s...reface.pod and fix what I wrote about the relationship between Perl 6 and Perl 5 :) | 15:38 | |

| moritz_ | chromatic: the things in =begin notetip ... =end notetip isn't rendered, it doesn't even appear in the .tex file | 18:55 | |
| chromatic: is there any hook to enable that? | 18:56 | ||
| chromatic | I thought Pod::PseudoPod handled that. allison will know better. | ||
