mjgardner TIL about `unit sub`: phoenixtrap.com/2021/08/24/frenemi...omment-357 15:43
Unfortunately it is not documented: docs.raku.org/syntax/unit
Oops, correction, it is hidden here: docs.raku.org/language/create-cli#...on_of_MAIN 15:45
Altreus ah, unit sub MAIN! interesting 15:47
mjgardner I guess it saves an indent level, which would make Python devs itch. So it's a win there. 16:00
Altreus I quite like that saving, but I feel like calling it an indent level is doing it a disservice 16:04
It's more a concept level 16:05
The indentation is happenstance: what actually go away are the block delimiters
Altreus So I guess the python devs would actually prefer it :D 16:06
cnx python dev here, can confirm that flat is better than nested 16:17

gfldex lizmat: I'm gonna ask Santa if we can borrow the multiverse branch slitter, so you can test your stuff in a non-production branch of reality. 21:31
Whereby I'm not convinced anymore that *this* branch of reality was meant to be used in production. 21:32
perryprog What's the worst is when someone runs the live branch of reality under lldb and it hits a breakpoint 21:33
ugexe every action is already a multiverse branch splitter 21:46
maybe a multiverse map reduce
gfldex the checkout is the difficult part 21:47
and there seams to be no revert
ugexe oh a git branch, and not a multiverse branching event

Explain that ^ and : declare variables

Based on recent discussion on the mailing list (www.mail-archive.com/perl6-users@p...076.html), this commit explains that the ^ and : twiglis declare variables that can then be used without the sigil. It also provides some examples of how this can alter program behavior with nested blocks.
