tbrowder is there a way to avoid precomp for debugging modules? 00:09

tbrowder lizmat: problem was p5 prog was using following pack call: pack(C => 0xAD) and pack was reporting that as one arg instead of two. i changed call to form: pack(" 00:39
*pack('C', 0xAD) which was accepted. 00:40
fyi, original p5 code is at least 5 but mostly 10 years old. 00:42
rypervenche How can I get a character, for example "\x9F9C", which is 龜, from a string of just the hex number 9F9C? I've tried something like this, but it doesn't work: say "\x[$_]" for "9F9C"; 01:14

rypervenche I'm starting with just "9f9c", not "\x9f9c" though.
I'm sourcing a file that has "%u9f9c" and need to turn it into 龜 ultimately. 01:33
Xliff Are you always given two bytes or is this a stream
rypervenche Sometimes it's multiple characters together.
Xliff So the file always has "%u<b><b>"? 01:34
rypervenche Yes, or a number of them concatenated together.
tbrowder the gist i'll point to in a minute hasn't been cleaned up but it was used to help me make a PR for rakudo to handle some special unicode space chars. 01:35
it may have what you need in some part of it. just execute it as is and see.

tbrowder good deal! raku is kool, but i have trouble getting my head around the fact that all integers become decimal in native form regardless of how we input them. then we can show them in different base. 01:52

kawaii Hello, I seem to be having an issue where a live supply is feeding me historical events from a tap? :) 14:35
github.com/myisha/p6-zoe-voteban/b...p6#L57-L83
The two `add-reaction` events from the first block of code are being picked up by the listener in the second block and we're not sure why :)
Even if I were to add a lengthy break, such as a sleep for 5 seconds, between the two blocks, the historical events are still captured
github.com/shuppet/p6-api-discord/...e.pm6#L150 <- here is where the tap is created in the module we're using 14:36

Doc_Holliwood I know Coke. 18:30
why is it that Coke from a small glass bottle tastes so much better than from a 1.5l PET? 18:31
[Coke] in some cases, different sweetener. 18:32
Doc_Holliwood There are no cases. I only drink Classic 18:35
Everything else is devils work
[Coke] different regions can have different bottlers; but if it's all the same bottler, than I don't know why the glass tastes better. I prefer cans, these days 18:36
I am 100% team Coke Zero these days
Doc_Holliwood heretic!
[Coke] In the states, we occasionally get "mexican coke" which cane sugar instead of HFCS. 18:37
eh. for a while it was even caff. free.
diabetes and tachycardia restrict my options sometimes. :)

allright, cool.
thanks
thundergnat Also, maybe check out modules.raku.org/search/?q=String%3A%3ASplice for your string slicing and dicing needs. (shameless plug) 18:39

AlexDaniel, (2020-02-06) github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/c3...f2367ba17c
jnthn Ah, hm. 20:26
Well yeah, I guess that saves also populating $/
AlexDaniel jnthn: interesting, yeah, it's a long-standing issue that whenever you needed a regex you'd end up with sloooow code because of the match objects
so I guess that's now fixed?
jnthn Well, in the case you only want to ask "does this match somewhere" and have no further info on where... 20:27
AlexDaniel I remember there was a discussion about this, but somehow “just make .contains accept regexes” wasn't a good option 20:28
jnthn I'd not assume any particular speedup without measuring though.
You don't get rid of the overhead of setting up the regex engine, for example.
AlexDaniel github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/2268 20:29
“Personally, I found the addition of .contains, .starts-with, and friends a bit frivolous, but now that those string-searching methods are here, it seems almost obvious to let them accept all regex adverbs that make logical sense for them.” 20:32
