[Coke] if I try to run with en_US locally, I get errors. 04:00
same with utf8 04:01
ahhh, utf-8 04:02
weird that it works without it on the mac. 04:08
ShimmerFairy++ that seems to have done it! 04:13
also annoying that I found a note that suggested the LC vars and that -encoding wouldn't help at all. :) 04:19
ShimmerFairy: with that, we can now automatically test spelling on new doc prs. Thanks! 04:26

Voldenet probably because it uses /usr/share/dict/words – the /usr/share/dict can have many different implementations 07:04
and it can contain non-english words too 07:07

mc2 hello rakoons 11:23
lizmat mc o/
mc2 even o/
librasteve hey
mc2 mc works well too. I became the lhs of the equation because mc is already taken everywhere :) 11:25
lizmat E= :-)
mc2 but E= is not a valid nick or login 11:28
11:28 mc2 is now known as E, E is now known as Guest8435
lizmat but E=mc2 is a nice equation :-) 11:28
11:28 Guest8435 is now known as mc2
mc2 indeed 11:28

mc2 timo: I'm the one who sent the email about raku packaging. my idea is raku to be "backportable" if not in backports directly 11:30

mc2 disbot1: crag ? 13:21
[Coke] App::Crag 13:22

mc2 using Math::Vector ... is this like Perl PDL? 13:36

[Coke] Raku has some of the compact storage built in to its native types. 13:44
13:45 arkiuat left
[Coke] I think M::V is all Raku code, nothing to do with the inside-the-vm storage. 13:46
(but some helpful raku code!)
mc2 ok ... I'll check it out. meanwhile: crag installed successfully 13:54

librasteve_ mc2: hope you enjoy Crag - let me know any feedback! 13:56

lizmat PSA: irclogs.raku.org is currently unreachable due to (internal) DNS issues, which do *not* affect other raku.org domains... should hopefully be fixed in the next 24 hours or so 14:06
this does *not* affect logging, so all messages during this period *will* become available once DNS has settled again 14:08
apologies for the interruption 14:09

lizmat moving from one registrar to another shouldn't be this disruptive :-( 14:23

timo mc2: hi, i just saw it now finally, sorry 18:10
would you prefer chatting in either #raku-dev or #moarvm for this? 18:12
librasteve_ notable6: weekly reset 18:17
notable6 librasteve_, Moved existing notes to “weekly_2026-03-02T18:17:54Z”
timo mc2: I just pulled in the latest moarvm version to the debian/sid branch (not pushed yet) which lets us drop a few of the patches since they were merged upstream, that hopefully makes things easier? 18:28
I haven't looked at what exactly I have to do to publish a package to backports, is it meant to only depend on as few other packages from backports as possible? 18:29
