Nemokosch Probably the former 06:09
Iirc your sound was like anybody else's during the Q&A
japhb Gotcha 06:54
El_Che japhb: The parts I listened to were not comprehensible to me (I am not a native speaker) because of the volume. I skipper a few passages to see if it got better but It didn't so I skipped it 09:28
I'll have a look/hear again to make sure
Nemokosch I switched to headphones for that presentation 09:38

tbrowder did i see something about Raku/Perl conf to be held in Toronto next year? 11:05
lucs_ I have this, to convert inches to cm: 14:47
lucs 「sub prefix:<θ>($n) { return $n * 2.54 }」 14:47
But I get this error when $n is for example not an integer: 14:48
「Malformed postfix call at ⋯ ------> ⋯ θ1.⏏5」
Fixable by using 「θ(1.5)」 or by making it a postfix operator instead.
Any way to fix it so it will work with simply 「θ1.5」?
Anton Antonov Does anyone know how to disable the "Live Preview" in Comma? (For example, in the last Comma version I consistently get some additional white pane opening when I open a file, and it seems that crashes Comma 5-10% of the time.) 14:59
vrurg lucs: I'm afraid, you'd need a space after the symbol. Because it's an alpha, θ1 considered an identifier. 15:01
lucs Ah, interesting. So if I use a non-alpha operator, it should work, eh. Will try that. 15:02
Thanks.
vrurg lucs: It should.
Anton Antonov: I found no permanent way. Only by clicking the 'Code' button at the top. 15:03
Anton Antonov I see -- thanks! 15:04
vrurg Sometimes live preview gets stuck after clocking, in which case I have to close the tab and re-open. Normally the file would open without it then. But it only relates to the current pane if split view. For other panes I have to repeat the sequence. 15:05
lucs vrurg: Yep, it does. Thanks again.
vrurg *after clicking
lucs: welcome! :)
Anton Antonov @vurg Ok, I will try all these steps / observations. 15:07
vrurg Anton Antonov: BTW, one more note. I stucks less often if you let it index the file first. Sometimes there is progress bar in a popup opening when hover over the Code button 15:08
*It stucks
vrurg is afk&
tonyo . 15:35
tonyo there a PTS happening next year? 18:21
lizmat tonyo: feels like it is the wrong channel to ask ? 19:54
tonyo agreed 20:10
[Coke] What's a PTS, out of curiousity? 20:19
lizmat Perl Toolchain Summit 20:34
tonyo is raku split away from PTS ? 21:21
i was in israel for the last one and have kind of lost track since covid & that 21:22
melezhik . 21:27
lizmat tonyo: fwiw, I think the toochains have diverged so much that there's no point in having anything joint 21:50
tonyo bummer, we spent most of our time in our own world anyway but it was fun hanging out with the perl folks at the same time 21:55
jdv maybe in a different reality perl and raku could have been closer but not this one 22:03
lizmat I tried but gave up
jdv yeah...
Xliff \o 23:23
Just hit 770kloc!
lizmat: Any tips for a new Mac Raku user? 23:27
(Hope I'm not intruding on sleepy time)
guifa_ Xliff: tips in what way? 23:34
guifa_ is also a Mac user
tonyo Xliff: use iterm instead of the built in terminal 23:53
