could be expanded to work with *@_ too, and the hash matching would be improved by making sure what's in %_ is what's in the named bits of the signature 01:57
rf Dang thats really neat
Thanks for sharing :D
I really need to study up on the slip operator, I feel like I'm missing out a lot by not knowing it that well 01:59

lizmat NemokoschKiwi: I wondered why it was so quiet today
sorta blamed Friday the 13th :-) 14:26
14:26 linkable6 left
[Coke] any rakuast docs in main/ at the moment? 14:27
14:27 linkable6 joined
NemokoschKiwi lizmat: oh, it's just we entered the read-only state :D 14:28
I mean, sorta strange that apparently two different programs/processes back up the two directions of the bridge
even though there is just one apparent bot client 14:29
14:30 jgaz joined
[Coke] Until I can cutover to ast - how to run a QAST node? 14:33
lizmat Actually, I don't think you can, not until it has been turned onto MAST bytecode 14:35
14:36 rf joined
lizmat and for a given QAST node, am not sure you can without context, compilation unit, etc etc etc 14:36
but then again I could be wrong nine jnthn vrurg might know
vrurg [Coke]: I can give you an NQP code example. 14:41

14:43 MasterDukeMobile joined
[Coke] Found my bug. in raku code, I was doing my $qast = QAST.... insteqad of my $qast := QAST... 14:43
MasterDukeMobile [Coke]: the "executing qast trees" section of blogs.perl.org/users/zoffix_znet/2...cious.html might be helpful 14:45
lizmat TIL :-) 14:49
mind you, that will not hold in the future :-) $*W is going the way of the dodo
14:51 MasterDukeMobile left
lizmat I wonder whether this is a bug in the current regex engine: 15:11
m: say ",🦋" ~~ / \C[COMMA, BUTTERFLY] / 15:12
camelia Nil
lizmat m: say ",🦋" ~~ / \c[COMMA, BUTTERFLY] /
camelia 「,🦋」
lizmat compare that with the negation:
m: say "ab" ~~ / \C[COMMA, BUTTERFLY] /
camelia 「a」
[Coke] github.com/coke/raku-slang-date
lizmat why is that just "a" and not "ab" ?
vrurg m: say "ab" ~~ / \C[COMMA, BUTTERFLY]+ / 15:13
camelia 「ab」
vrurg lizmat: ^^^ ?
lizmat but why wasn't the + needed in the non-negated case ?
vrurg That certainly looks like a bug to me. 15:14
[Coke] raku -I. -MSlang::Date -e 'say 2023-01-13.day-of-week'
5
lizmat [Coke]: cool!
so is the bug in the negated or the non-negated case in your opinion? 15:15
lizmat feels in the negated case 15:16
[Coke] Inspired by buttondown.email/hillelwayne/archi...languages/ 's "Date Literals"
lizmat and now a followup blog post!
vrurg lizmat: non-negated. It must've caught just one symbol.
lizmat but why? I always interpreted \c[COMMA, BUTTERFLY} as a convoluted way to say: ,🦋 15:17
*]
but you're saying its a convoluted way to say: , | 🦋 15:18
vrurg Because \c still stands for a single char. I consider [P1, P2] as a set of alternatives. 15:19
m: say "ab" ~~ / \w /
camelia 「a」
vrurg So, its no different from the above.
[Coke] uploaded to fez.
rf :[Coke] can you link the source to that slang? 15:20
lizmat sadly, the documentation only mentions single character use of \c
[Coke] github.com/coke/raku-slang-date/bl...te.rakumod
lizmat yet the RakuAST node has "characters" as its attribute
rf Thanks !
vrurg lizmat: an error? Even the doc says that \c matches _a_ character. 15:22
lizmat hmmm that.s what the documentation says, indeed :-) 15:23
I'll make an issue 15:24
[Coke] rf: any feedback welcome, thank you
vrurg lizmat: BTW, I found no specs for the case. Could've overlooked any, but likely they're not there. 15:33
lizmat I guess I'm enshrining the specs in RakuAST tests now :-) 15:34
vrurg: in RakuAST, it's considered to be a CharClass, which would make me lean towards the \c case being correct 15:38
m: say ",," ~~ / \c[COMMA, BUTTERFLY] / # but that doesn't seem to be correct either
camelia Nil
15:41 razetime left
vrurg lizmat: for the sake of uniformity, I'd expect anything withing [] to behave as a set of alternatives, akin to <[]>. The only difference would be in using commas to separate props because these may contains spaces. 15:41
15:42 synthmeat left, synthmeat joined
vrurg From that point of view \c would always be a single char. Besides, it improves readability because one wouldn't need to remember \c specific – quantifiers talk on their own. 15:43
Another uniformity would be to match behaviors of other \<letter> character classes. 15:44
lizmat hmmm... seems \x has the same issue: 15:46
m: say "ab" ~~ / \x[61, 62] /
camelia 「ab」
lizmat m: say "AB" ~~ / \X[61, 62] /
camelia 「A」

NemokoschKiwi 2nd attempt: is it possible to make changes to Tellable? 17:43
[Coke] The person who runs them does so but doesn't really do much else, so my guess would be: yes, if it was a simple change that was packaged up in a way that was easy for them to include. 17:59

[Coke] (AlexDaniel is his nick) 18:02
Missed the previous discussion, but is there an issue/PR on github.com/Raku/whateverable ? 18:03
NemokoschKiwi It seems to me that Tellable itself is not available anywhere so I wouldn't know how it can be changed 18:07
I was thinking that something like a .readall command could be handy, so that if I, or someone else from discord, goes to IRC, the bot won't start spitting a dozen of "missed messages" 18:08
coleman [Coke]: papercuts like that are important, in my opinion. Can you open an issue on fez? 18:09
ugexe i mean there isn't exactly a reason a distribution name can't contain a single : 18:10
and in all honestly we shouldn't be using :: in distribution names anyways, rather s/::/-/
NemokoschKiwi This is quite a good point in my opinion but it doesn't seem like there is a critical mass of awareness regarding this 18:12
[Coke] .ask AlexDaniel - hey, where is the source for tellable6? it's not one of the obvious options here: github.com/Raku/whateverable/tree/...ateverable 18:19
tellable6 [Coke], I'll pass your message to AlexDaniel
[Coke] tellable6: source?
tellable6 [Coke], github.com/Raku/whateverable
linkable6 [Coke], github.com/Raku/whateverable

NemokoschKiwi well, how could I miss this when I literally grepped the whole folder for any appearance of tellable case insensitive 🤐 18:29
[Coke] I also did. I ended up search for ".ask", that got me there.' 18:30
what kind of change were you thinking of?
[Coke] updates his windows install to HEAD and so far no explosions. 18:31
NemokoschKiwi > I was thinking that something like a .readall command could be handy, so that if I, or someone else from discord, goes to IRC, the bot won't start spitting a dozen of "missed messages" 18:32
tbh looking at the code, it might be possible to just fix the interpretation of Discord names some way 18:34

NemokoschKiwi lol 18:41
.tell tellable6 interesting semantics you've got
tellable6 NemokoschKiwi, Thanks for the message
