RaycatWhoDat Hi. Quick question: why does Raku's compile times start slowing down so much when you add multimethods and custom operators? Not something I do often but I was just trying some stuff out. 01:34

camelia "h"
Array element = ["e", "l", "l", "o"]
"world"
CIAvash dolmen: you need to use binding ↑ 09:31
dolmen CIAvash, nice 09:35
But doc says: "But binding Array slots directly to values is strongly discouraged" docs.raku.org/language/list#Binding
Maybe that's not a comment about binding in general but about arrays... 09:37
lizmat hmmm... I wonder if this remark: "If you do, expect surprises with built-in functions." is still true 09:39

oddp Reading through arne's pwc solution right now. Damn, it never occured to me that you can do .grep(*.&foo) where foo is a regular sub. Sweet! 11:22
moritz you can just do .grep(&foo) 11:24
lizmat m: sub foo(\a) { a %% 2 }; dd (^10).grep(&foo)
camelia (0, 2, 4, 6, 8).Seq

Petr37 how create module? n 11:33
maybe any tutorial ? 11:36
dolmen Ulti: I wasn't aware that Python now has generalized iterable unpacking in assignments, not just for loop. I don't write Python, and I should have check. 11:44
Ulti Petr37: this might help you docs.raku.org/language/modules-extra 11:45
Petr37 Ulti, thanks 😊 11:46
Ulti dolmen: I wouldn't have known either, because Id never get to see something like that in the wild
unpacking is a bit clunky in Python more generally though, having to do (head, *_) = iterable_thing and then wrap it in a try catch for empty list! is quite annoying 11:47

codesections :Ulti My understanding is that Nil doesn't quite exist as a return type – that is, being Nil is esentailly being a default value. So, philosophically, it seems consistent for `[].head` to be a default value too 12:36
:timotimo, yeah, that's where I was going with that example – you just said it better/faster than I did :)
timotimo m: say Failure ~~ Nil 12:37
camelia True
timotimo ^- actually, Nil can be returned from any sub or method. Failure is also a kind of Nil, which is the reason why you can "fail" out of subs/methods even when they have return type restrictions
12:37 japhb joined
codesections Unrelated question: `WHY` returns the Pod value associated with an item's *type*. Is there a way to access the Pod value associated with the item itself? 12:38
Comma shows doc comments for variables, so I thought there might be. (Or maybe it just parses the doc comments on its own – I know it does its own parsing for IDE/code completion reasons) 12:39
timotimo override the method on your type and have an extra piece of storage in the instances for it?
oh
in that case you'll want the .VAR.WHY i think?

cpan-raku New module released to CPAN! MongoDB (0.43.12) by 03MARTIMM 13:01
RaycatWhoDat I asked this a bit earlier but I think everyone was asleep. "Quick question: why does Raku's compile times start slowing down so much when you add multimethods and custom operators? Not something I do often but I was just trying some stuff out." 13:03
13:04 dataangel left, dataangel joined
lizmat custom operators mean change of grammar 13:05
changing the grammar currently means deep-cloning it 13:06
that's just a lot of work for the Raku grammar
mind you: this only happens during compilation, has no runtime effects
which, of course, if it is a script, and not a module, currently also means runtime 13:07
there have been efforts to also pre-compile scripts, but these seem to have stalled atm
timotimo deep-cloning, huh? 13:08
lizmat no?
timotimo i thought the biggest time-sink was running the nfa optimizer over and over again?
lizmat well, and that I gues ?
*guess
I guess the nfa optimizer runs the entire grammar then 13:09
brb
timotimo not exactly, but close enough 13:10
NFA only covers the declarative prefixes, but especially with operators that tends to be very big alternations of stuff 13:11

kawaii timotimo: my bad, I think I'm also doing something wrong with it here :) hastebin.com/raw/enumuguquv 13:55
timotimo it's as i thought 13:56
the permissions array or whatever that you're putting in the junction ("in sub any at ...Junction.pm6") from your voteban code (line 81 in voteban.p6) is trying to iterate something that was already mapped over in method "combined-permissions" which you called via "has-any-permission" 13:57
