03:28:26FromDiscord<_russianlifts> kind of a dumb question but for procedural types, i can pass regular functions just fine by name, but what if i have a generic function that i want to pass? something like `my_function[A, B]` doesn't work as compiler thinks it's just an incomplete function call. i'm failing to find anything in the manual about this. thanks for any information

03:40:41FromDiscord<Laylie> show code and error. but it might be this\: https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#procedures-method-call-syntax

03:48:09FromDiscord<_russianlifts> nim manual doesn't mention anything on this and i can't find much on forums, though i'm probably missing something; i am using generics to have comptime type safety in the array bounds of a simulation, and am trying to do some multithreading. it would be nice if i could pass an instantiated proc this way because the alternative is quite annoying with type sizing
03:59:46FromDiscord<Laylie> i can't reproduce the error

04:05:12FromDiscord<_russianlifts> (edit) "Hu" => "Huh"
04:05:13FromDiscord<_russianlifts> you're right
04:05:31FromDiscord<_russianlifts> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#pasty=cJXRqijx
04:05:56FromDiscord<_russianlifts> not sure then, i'll look closer

04:12:44FromDiscord<_russianlifts> In reply to @_russianlifts "i have a signature:": ah... the param here was generic and i forgot to instantiate it in the proc signature...

07:06:21FromDiscord<litlighilit> is there any existing package like https://handy_sugars.nimpylib.org/handy_sugars/trans_imp.html#impExp.m,, does

07:21:02FromDiscord<[Next-System] systemblue> DOM 2 hardware, GUI 2 compiler
07:21:10FromDiscord<[Next-System] systemblue> it will be nim's symbol
07:21:20FromDiscord<[Next-System] systemblue> (edit) "will" => "should"
07:21:43FromDiscord<[Next-System] systemblue> and that's why I have no mind to learn Go, Rust, Zig

10:01:06FromDiscord<litlighilit> yep, i even had a little try and found it possible to design natural-lang-like dsl via nim's macro
10:01:43FromDiscord<litlighilit> btw Rust has macros but not as powerful as nim's

19:58:32FromDiscord<treeform> In reply to @exelotl "the forum app that": I made that because I want teach the AI how to make simple sites. When I want some web app, I can just say make the app in this style and it hopefully will do some thing decent.
20:09:36FromDiscord<exelotl> @treeform was AI used in the making of the forum app itself?

20:32:41FromDiscord<exelotl> I think the premise of the app is really cool, there's no decent single-binary / easy-to-hack-on forum software out there. I'm currently hosting a forum with python, the software is abandonware and annoyingly complex, and the replacement I've been eying is stuck in development hell. But I don't want anything to do with AI, the industry is rotten to the core
