lizmat one could also argue that the current infix:<~>(Junction, Junction) behaviour is ... incorrect ?
m: dd any(1,2,any(3,4,5)) + any(7,8,9) # nested with infix:<+> 13:12
camelia any(any(8, 9, 10), any(9, 10, 11), any(any(10, 11, 12), any(11, 12, 13), any(12, 13, 14)))

[Coke] librasteve_: what did I do? :) 13:51
disbot11 <librasteve> I was reading your DAMMIT comments on the error message from late last night (my time) ;-) 14:09
<librasteve> (thus the smile on the #raku chan) 14:10
[Coke] :) 14:50
[Coke] ponders a raku-off topic but supposes he could just use discord. :| 14:59
[Coke] is just old enough to really not care for discord. :)
timo let's have a general channel for raku people that's not necessarily about raku ... let's pun it off of the mug throwing incident maybe? let's see ... #muggers? okay scratch that ignore me argh 16:57
disbot11 <librasteve> i’m good with that … Discord (barf) already has “other-programming” and “off-topic” suggest we add those to IRC and then bridge em?? 17:32
lizmat in a universe long ago and far away, there existed a "channel" on PLATO called "pad", where anything could and did go 18:13
maybe #raku-pad ?
(unlogged)
timo no: left-pad. yes: raku-pad ;) 18:15

patrickb m: (1,2,3).map(*.&a); sub a($t) { } 16:10
camelia ( no output )
patrickb How camelia the above with RakuAST?
*How can I 16:11
m: Q|(1,2,3).map(*.&a); sub a($t) { }|.AST.EVAL 16:13
camelia ===SORRY!=== Error while compiling EVAL_0
Undeclared routine:
a used at line 1
patrickb ^ That's the zef on RakuAST error I've been seeing. 16:14
Note that sub a is put after the call, not before. 16:15
lizmat I guess the lookup for &a is too eager 16:16
and that's a bug in RakuAST I'd say
patrickb same breakage when using $_.& syntax 16:17
Works when using a($_) syntax 16:18
lizmat I guess the &a in RakuAST always directly translates into a lookup and when that fails, errors out 16:19
I guess in the legacy grammar it just assumes it will be looked up later
ab5tract I think it might be that the routine is not installed into the EVAL'd scope, and we are much more graceful about what we put in there, so that an imported sub is visible to EVAL's with the base compiler 17:36
but it is not currently visible during an EVAL in RakuAST 17:37
