lizmat reading news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42638508 I wonder whether we could use a NOTFIRST phaser in Raku 00:10
coleman What would be different from "once" (in loops) docs.raku.org/syntax/once 00:16
timo so a shortcut for `if $++ { ... }`? 00:18
m: for ^10 { if True ^ff^ False { say "ah" }; say $_ } 00:19

coleman that's elegant 00:29
timo m: for ^10 { if $++ { say "ah"; if $++ { say "ah!"; if $++ { say "Ah!"; if $++ { say "AH!" } } }; say $_ } 00:30

timo not like that hm?
the inner ifs are all closure-cloned?
coleman meaning they're 0 every time maybe? 00:32
timo yeah a simple $++ inside of the first if $++ is always 0 sadface 00:51
i guess that's what you get for anonymous state variables, they just attach to the closest block they're in 00:52
coleman Seems like a bug but I don't know if it technically violates any rules. if isn't supposed to topicalize, but that's technically not the same thing 01:22
ah nevermind; the docs say it gets reset in each lexical scope 01:23
