guifa_ In general, you should only worry about underlying structures unless you have a reason to (so a b-tree might be useful for some problems when you'd be interacting directly with it, but with a hash or array, how it works under the hood may actually even vary by implementation) 02:56

2022-11-12T18:18:28Z #raku <lizmat> Nemokosch: and you're thus implying that the RSC doesn't do that?
p6steve Demos[m]: I found this raku.land/zef:Scimon/BTree and this raku.land/cpan:HANENKAMP/ArrayHash (no guarantees)
Nemokosch I think the one from liz Hash::Sorted or something like that was pretty good 11:00
11:01 Nemokosch left
p6steve Demos[m]: Oh - yes Hash::Sorted sorts by key rather than insertion order 11:14
lizmat well, actually it will sort in any way *you* tell it to :-) 11:15
p6steve raku is also very good for whipping up you own custom classes, for example by mixing in the Associate role docs.raku.org/type/Associative#Met...ld_provide 11:24

El_Che someone else here on mastodon tooting about stuff including raku? 19:22
I already found liz :P

Voldenet I've created accounts on twitter/mastodon and never used those. It feels easier to follow discussions on chats (irc/discord/slack) or issue trackers 19:28
or SO
avuserow `with` and MAIN with Bool parameters are very nice pattern. I'm writing a small CLI to update a config file. This lets me write `MAIN(Bool $cli-flag)` and later `$conf<foo> = $_ with $cli-flag`. This leaves the current value intact if the flag is not provided. Very happy with this. 19:37
El_Che micro blogging is great for announcements and brainfarts
both can be fun
Voldenet brainfarts are better on irc, because irc is temporary, it's literally gone once it's transmitted… ;) 19:39
only 50% of users keep logs forever
El_Che I autoremove my messages after a week 19:53

lizmat El_Che: the latter, rba has indicated he isn't going anywhere anytime soon 21:22
but e.g. the new doc site takes more time to prepare and get going then he is able to spend at this time 21:23
21:23 derpydoo left
Nemokosch the irony of "toxic people will destroy the community" is that you only need to go back a couple of years to see that almost anyone could be "proven" to be a toxic person. One could even say that "toxic people" have already destroyed the community, and not once. But honestly, from what I see, those "toxic people" weren't some ill-willed manipulators, just members of the community who happened to end up at a dead 21:30
having said that, my complaint is actually less directed against the CAT itself, more about setting the priorities. "community affairs" have a lot of bikeshedding potential and currently the main worry is the lack of activity, not the abundance of destructive forces 21:36
if the CAT can actually help people be comfortable with doing marketing & management kind of stuff, I very much welcome it 21:38
21:55 bigfondue left 21:56 sena_kun left
[Coke] Having had to deal with cat-level situations in multiple communities before, having clear guidelines about acceptable behavior is absolutely welcome. 21:59
Having seen people in those communities who were either deliberately hurtful OR obvlivious that their behavior was not acceptable to others in the community, having the cat makes it clear. 22:00
regarding priorities - You are welcome to your opinion about what should be prioritized; we've discussed elsewhere that in general, our community's volunteer time is not fungible at best. 22:02
[Coke] is reminded to try to close one raku based ticket today
22:03 MasterDuke left 22:04 tejr left, epony joined
El_Che lizmat: the latter is good, working on stuff to avoid drama instead of being swamped by it. Good for mental health 22:19
(reading backlog, maybe we are talking about something else, I was talking about cat commits) 22:20
22:27 bigfondue joined
Nemokosch I don't know. I find it somewhat cynical to apply the "non-fungible volunteer time" in the context of representatives of the community. 22:28
It's not quite the same as somebody picking Raku for whatever reason and making a tamagochi module and then leaving or sth
Mind you, it's perfectly alright if *my* priorities are argued and decided against - but to say that the so-called "steering council" is not responsible whatsoever for carefully setting the priorities regarding the, well, "steering" of the community, that sounds like taking away the purpose of such a governing body at the first place. 22:35
oh btw [Coke] I might be biased here but there is a really handsome PR waiting to be published on the raku.org site 😉 22:38

[Coke] My volunteer time is very infrequently spent on raku.org 22:52
but if you link it here, I'll look at it. 22:53
22:54 tejr joined
Nemokosch github.com/Raku/raku.org/pull/175 (Geth also sent it 22 hours ago) 22:55
again, there are multiple resolutions. For example, I definitely wouldn't be badgering if I could update that site myself in the nature of forgiveness > permission or something. Another option could be that you decide to spend time more frequently on raku.org - doesn't even have to be significantly more time, just more regularly. 23:03
my goal (and perhaps I could say *our* goal) isn't to point fingers at people but to get things done 23:05
[Coke] undersightable6: check 23:10
Your patch indicates this a bot that exists.
AlexDaniel it did exist at some point 23:11
Nemokosch > While I agree I'd rather keep the list in one place, not two, I'm not opposed to accepting this until we sort that out.
AlexDaniel I don't know its current status, something doesn't work for sure but I don't know what
[Coke] reportable6: list
reportable6 [Coke], gist.github.com/ebadd55dac582e36fd...289f154ccc
AlexDaniel yep, reportable is also not operating as it did, reportable.tar.zst is an archive of its previous reports 23:12
it used to generate nice summaries for weeklies, but I guess not anymore 23:13
[Coke] shareable6: help
shareable6 [Coke], Like this: shareable6: f583f22 # See wiki for more examples: github.com/Raku/whateverable/wiki/Shareable

AlexDaniel that one definitely works 23:14
shareable6: HEAD
shareable6 AlexDaniel, whateverable.6lang.org/HEAD
[Coke] Nemokosch - review created on the PR. only one issue. 23:15
AlexDaniel whether you'll be able to use that file or not is a difficult question. But, from what I remember, shareable6 is actually serving these files, so it's needed for things like Blin and stuff
