nwc10 does NQP implement todo for tests? Or just skip? 12:35

tellable6 2020-08-17T12:15:19Z #raku-dev <lizmat> demostanis still not sure why this wouldn't need to be in the ecosystem, for ease of installation
demostanis lizmat: It can't be in ecosystem as it requires root to install and to use. 12:53
12:53 sena_kun left
lizmat why does it require root ? 12:54
I'm not sure I want to promote a product that requires root for something that does not actually requires root access to work
MasterDuke nwc10: github.com/Raku/nqp/blob/master/sr...qp#L39-L42 12:56
demostanis lizmat: Its main purpose it to install software from Github, which might need root, for example to install executables in /usr/bin, or for many other reasons. As install instructions will be specified in user-provided rules, they must be root-owned, so that malware/untrusted users/anything else can't modify these rules and thus can't replace rules by something dangerous. It can't prompt for user credentials 12:58
once the software are getting installed as HubToDate may run inside of a crontab in the future.
nwc10 thanks 13:03

Geth nqp/more-hash-tests: dd6b6fee54 | (Nicholas Clark)++ | t/nqp/108-vmhash.t
More tests for NQP hash behaviour.

Tests for iterators, including deleting the hash key corresponding to the current iterator position. Tests for exceptions before and after starting iteration (which are not yet consistent between the three backends).
Test `.elems`. More thorough tests for `.kv`.
Also fix a test description.

nwc10 this was why I wanted to build JS
Altai-man lizmat++
[Coke] are there instructions for doing the JS build? 14:07
I got to the point where I just use the node package because I'm lazy
nwc10 I found that I needed node v10 14:09
v11 and v12 didn't work, I think because soemting ("us") has pinned npm packages that are too old to deal with v11 or later 14:10
so I built the most recent v10 release from source and used that
on a machine with a new enough gcc
(That's linux)
seems that it only supports g++ on Linux, and (only?) clang on OS X (and *BSD?)
but this might be a constraint from whatever v8 demands. 14:11
anyway, it's fussy.

Make .sort about 4.4x as fast on Int/Str/Num arrays

  AlexDaniel++ expressed concern about the Junction check causing a
slow down in sorting. And he was right. However, when looking at the profile, it occurred to me that most of the overhead of sorting was caused by using the default infix:<cmp> logic. With the multi sub "compare" now inbetween, it was possible to turn this overhead ... (9 more lines)

AlexDaniel lizmat: I made a review, I hope it's not too long 17:33
lizmat: but TL;DR is that `compare` multis form their own cmp table just like this one, except that it's different: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/9d6d...s.pm6#L172 17:34
so basically you're trying to recreate the same thing but fast… I mean… yeah, it's something the compiler should do 17:35
lizmat: if you care about my advice then I'd suggest to talk to jnthn to figure out why a call to `cmp` is not optimized into a simple nqp::cmp_* call 17:38
or whoever knows about this

Emulate exact behaviour on lists with IntStr/NumStr

First check numerically, if they're the same, then compare as strings.

Altai-man lizmat, hi! I have moved your RFC article to 19th, hope it isn't wrong for me to move it. Thanks a lot for articles! 21:56
Oh, no, this is probably a very bad idea.
Ok, moving it back. 21:57
AlexDaniel lizmat: I'm sorry, but as I said, I don't think an optimization in this particular form can work without sort regressions 22:47
I think we'll have to figure out something else
