| 00:00:25 | * | brainproxy joined #nim |
| 00:00:39 | enow | zestyr: then I figured I might as well mash a lot of jpegs ontop of each other |
| 00:00:56 | zestyr | you'd still need to encode that into a stream though? |
| 00:01:01 | enow | which would be mjpeg, in a nutshell. |
| 00:01:04 | zestyr | yep |
| 00:01:05 | enow | zestyr: not for mjpeg |
| 00:01:35 | enow | zestyr: but I'd love to see it happen with ffmpeg in some time |
| 00:01:55 | enow | thing is if you can control I and P frames you can achieve a lot of things |

| 00:02:59 | shashlick | enow - will need to open a bug against tree-sitter since it doesn't understand this inline #define |
| 00:03:17 | enow | hm MPEG1 I wouldn't bother with ffmpeg for that |
| 00:03:52 | zestyr | it becomes a little more complicated when you want audio as well |
| 00:03:54 | enow | so you've fixed some errors from the interop side of things? |
| 00:06:52 | enow | zestyr: it does |
| 00:07:23 | enow | not to start a flamewar, but isn't this sorta kinda what pulseaudio is designed for |
| 00:08:20 | * | shpx joined #nim |
| 00:10:04 | zestyr | well it can be used as a remote audio server, but that's definitely not its most popular usage. and you know, good luck syncing a list of jpegs with an audio stream you don't have much control over |
| 00:15:47 | enow | zestyr: fine fine if you want to use it to bypass corporate youtube polices |

| 00:46:56 | ryukoposting | hey so I noticed something weird when I moved from 0.18 to 0.19, and i was wondering if someone could help |
| 00:47:06 | ryukoposting | I'm still pretty new to nim though, so I might just be dumb |
| 00:47:08 | zestyr | what's the problem? |
| 00:49:56 | ryukoposting | so, I had a macro that took a typedesc as a parameter. The macro had a few if statements looking at the typedesc, i.e. `if T is string`. When I moved from 0.18 to 0.19, `if T is string` no longer worked as it did before. `if getType(T) is string` also doesn't work either. Then, I tried doing `if getType(T).repr == "typeDesc[string]"`, and that worked |
| 00:51:14 | ryukoposting | this is for a library that I'm gonna put up on nimble once it's stable btw |

| 02:19:18 | shashlick | enow: okay - JBLOCK is also working now - only thing not working is the struct with #defines in the middle and I need tree-sitter to fix that |
| 02:19:45 | shashlick | for the near term, you can simply copy that one struct out, remove the defines and run it through nimterop |
| 02:20:11 | shashlick | then you can hard code that and run the rest of the file in an automated fashion |
| 02:21:02 | shashlick | another option is to edit the file before running it through nimterop, and then restore it back |

| 05:00:46 | zestyr | doing it without parallel works |
| 05:04:54 | leorize | parallel is kinda buggy atm |
| 05:05:21 | leorize | you can do some `if` juggling to make it work I believe |
| 05:06:40 | zestyr | hmm, if I instead do `if i mod len(list) <= len(list) + -1: spawn echo i`, I get this error |
| 05:06:42 | zestyr | Error: internal error: (filename: "ccgexprs.nim", line: 1012, column: 17) |
| 05:07:44 | zestyr | even `if 1 < 1: spawn echo i` triggers it |
| 05:07:50 | leorize | you should file a bug for that |
| 05:09:46 | zestyr | seems to be because I'm using echo, not the if statement |

| 05:51:09 | Tanger | Is there any short hand to represent binary operations on multiple values? i.e, in C you can ~(ECHO | ICANON | ISIG), while in nim I have "and not ECHO or not ICANON or not ISIG" |
| 05:52:00 | narimiran | erm, those are not equivalent, are they? |
| 05:53:46 | narimiran | but you can define those operators yourself if you want |

| 06:22:30 | narimiran | just as i posted, i noticed i'm overcomplicating and plain and simple "proc `|`(a, b: bool): bool = a or b" will do the trick :) |
| 06:23:21 | leorize | Tanger: not(a or b or c)? |

| 07:59:58 | Zevv | I must say I do miss the C idioms as well for bit fiddling |
| 08:00:00 | * | gmpreussner quit (Quit: kthxbye) |
| 08:03:04 | Araq | "C idioms"? I would use setBit, testBit, unsetBit instead. |
| 08:03:26 | * | dvn joined #nim |
| 08:03:55 | Araq | but it's Nim, overload | if you think it's so "nice". (It's not at all, it's messy, but you're used to it.) |
| 08:04:15 | Zevv | Nah I do C things in C and Nim things in Nim |
| 08:04:19 | Zevv | can't have it all |
| 08:04:40 | * | gmpreussner joined #nim |
| 08:04:43 | Araq | we should have setBit, testBit, unsetBit and flipBit |
| 08:05:39 | Araq | x |= (1 << bit) is actually a complex construct |
| 08:06:23 | Zevv | True, but in embedded its the idiomatic way, and C compilers know just how to handle this |
| 08:07:01 | Araq | the idiomatic way is a pure anachronism. |
| 08:07:10 | Zevv | true, reg &= ~((1<<BIT1) | (1<<BIT2)) is very nasty |
| 08:07:47 | Araq | reg.unsetBits(Bit1, Bit2) it's Nim, we can have things that make sense |
| 08:08:12 | Zevv | True - that's not yet in bitops, right? |
| 08:08:47 | * | absolutejam joined #nim |

| 08:10:09 | Tanger | Thanks for the response Araq, leorize and narimiran! My brain was not functioning logically, haha |
| 08:13:27 | Araq | Zevv: probably not |
| 08:13:55 | absolutejam | so, I can't store different types in the same seq right? |
| 08:14:27 | absolutejam | I tried wrapping it in a type that uses a case statement to declare the field type (seq[foo] or seq[bar]) but that complained that I was redefining the field type |
| 08:14:47 | absolutejam | Are there any there any other options? Just using different field types per distinct sequence type? |
| 08:17:46 | Araq | usually yes, but if you have troubles use JSON until you're more familiar with how static type systems |

| 13:22:43 | kobi7 | how do I check if a Uri is valid ? |
| 13:27:14 | enow | kobi7: hm well either you try to curl it or I guess you could find some regular expression for it |
| 13:27:45 | enow | to fetch it with curl and see what happens gives some overhead so I guess that's not what you have in mind |
| 13:38:04 | enow | kobi7: rather than stringing together your own regular expression, I suggest looking for a ready made one. There are all sorts of edge cases you'd miss if your doing it on your own |
| 13:38:36 | enow | kobi7: if regular expressions isn't your cup of tea, and I don't blame you, you might want to check out something like https://github.com/achesak/nim-uri2 |

| 15:46:45 | shashlick | Can someone help answer this - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54040850/is-nim-similar-to-java-in-its-memory-inefficiency |
| 15:46:59 | * | kapil____ joined #nim |
| 15:49:11 | Araq | why would it be "similar"? Nim has a value based object system like C++ and thread local heaps for ultra low GC pauses |

| 15:52:23 | Zevv | Araq: I'd like to make a PR for basic bit operations, like this: http://paste.debian.net/1060851/, but I'm not sure where to put them. Do you have an opinion or should I ask dom96? |

| 15:57:20 | absolutejam | how badly will I get hurt for necroing on the forums? |

| 15:57:39 | zestyr | Zevv: bitops.nim? |
| 15:57:50 | narimiran | absolutejam: it won't hurt |
| 15:59:07 | Araq | Zevv, bitops.nim |
| 16:01:29 | Zevv | ok |
| 16:02:01 | absolutejam | Araq: I can't post because I can't activate my email and the link has expired |
| 16:02:09 | absolutejam | I don't see anywhere to resend the activation |
| 16:03:22 | leorize | dom96: ^ |
| 16:03:24 | narimiran | absolutejam: dom96 is the one who usually deals with that |
| 16:03:41 | Araq | Zevv, also make these all .inline procs |
| 16:04:04 | Araq | and add flipBit(s) |
| 16:04:53 | Zevv | ok |
| 16:05:05 | Zevv | Should bitNum[T] be exported? |
| 16:05:24 | absolutejam | ooh sorry |
| 16:05:25 | Araq | dunno, it's a bit weird. |
| 16:06:07 | Araq | it makes sense though. maybe name it BitIndex[T] ? |
| 16:06:21 | Zevv | BitCount[T] ? |
| 16:06:36 | Zevv | If its not exported, its not in the docs, so the user can not see what's expected there. |
| 16:06:41 | Zevv | But the thing is a bit cryptic |
| 16:07:08 | Araq | it's not a Count. BitPosition[T] ? |
| 16:07:15 | Araq | BitsRange[T]? |
| 16:07:28 | Araq | something like that. bbl# |
| 16:07:40 | Zevv | It was bitRange earier, I'll change it back |
| 16:10:12 | narimiran | "the thing is a bit cryptic" --> i see what you did there ;) |
| 16:10:53 | Zevv | pun was not intended, but it's quite good actually :) |
| 16:22:05 | * | ng0 joined #nim |
| 16:25:02 | Zevv | Can anyone explain to my why this is not valid: http://paste.debian.net/1060859/ |
| 16:25:11 | Zevv | I'm not allowed to make a varargs[] of a range? |
| 16:26:14 | zestyr | why is the procvar pragma not documented? it's mentioned twice in the manual |
| 16:27:20 | leorize | Zevv: It looks like int was matched instead of Myrange |
| 16:27:36 | leorize | try converting the first literal to Myrange |
| 16:27:48 | leorize | zestyr: because it's not really used I suppose? |
| 16:28:16 | Zevv | leorize: yeah, that works. But that kind of defies the purpose of using ranges for the API, this is not really usable this way |
| 16:28:36 | Zevv | I'll have to wrap it in a template probably |
| 16:29:09 | Zevv | hm, but how |
| 16:31:40 | zestyr | leorize: searching procvar in the stdlib yields 58 results (unicode.nim and strutils.nim for example), and I've seen at least a couple nimble packages using it |

| 16:35:13 | Zevv | leorize: is it actually supposed to match on ints instead of the type in the varargs? |
| 16:35:54 | Zevv | ah it is implicitly transformed to an array, so the matching goes haywire |
| 16:36:23 | leorize | try varargs[myrange, myrange]? |
| 16:36:36 | zestyr | leorize: oh, thanks |
| 16:37:41 | Zevv | multiple types in a varargs? |
| 16:38:13 | leorize | you can perform type conversions within the varargs |
| 16:38:33 | Zevv | aah |
| 16:38:47 | Zevv | smart! |
| 16:40:25 | * | NimBot joined #nim |
| 16:41:38 | Zevv | yeah, *almost*. But now it breaks down because my range is actually a generic type: http://paste.debian.net/1060865/ |
| 16:41:56 | Zevv | identifier expected, but found 'BitsRange[T]' |
| 16:52:02 | Zevv | yeah, it seems that semVarargs() only expects idents or quoted idents as 2nd argument. Pushing generics to the limit :) |
| 16:53:43 | Zevv | nkBracketExpr is not allowed there |

| 20:05:04 | shashlick | how do I import a module only at compile time and not at runtime |
| 20:07:07 | FromDiscord_ | <demotomohiro> is it possible to use importc to import types in c |
| 20:07:18 | FromDiscord_ | <demotomohiro> or cpp? |
| 20:11:00 | FromDiscord_ | <demotomohiro> "import" is not something executed at runtime. But it seems nim call module initialize code even if you use procs in the module only at compile time. |
| 20:11:44 | Araq | not on devel anymore. it's been optimized. |

| 20:46:41 | shashlick | Araq: so is it possible to check for compile time - when definedX: import xyz, where definedX is compile time or not? |
| 20:51:24 | * | dom96_w quit (Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…) |
| 20:56:37 | zacharycarter | shashlick: it used to be possible, unless something changed |
| 20:58:22 | shashlick | I was trying to use https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/manual.html#implementation-specific-pragmas-compile-time-define-pragmas |
| 20:59:02 | shashlick | but an intdefine is not propagated to other files |
| 21:00:15 | shashlick | really wish we had that {.define.} pragma |
| 21:03:55 | FromGitter | <kaushalmodi> Araq: one test is failing on Nim nightlies for 32-bit Windows: https://travis-ci.org/nim-lang/nightlies/jobs/479722733#L809 |
| 21:05:00 | FromDiscord_ | <Protty> when you do `--os:standalone` is the whole system's module excluded or only sections of it? |
| 21:08:59 | Araq | intdefine is used by the stdlib and it works |
| 21:09:44 | FromDiscord_ | <Protty> so it only includes numbers & define? |
| 21:09:45 | Araq | kaushalmodi: ok, GULPF will take a look |
| 21:10:07 | FromGitter | <kaushalmodi> ok, I'll open an issue |
| 21:10:17 | Araq | shashlick: const foobar {.intdefine.} = defaultvalue works as documented |
| 21:10:35 | shashlick | Araq: well i'm trying to use it in a different way - declaring it in the mainmodule and hoping it shows up in imported modules in a when defined() |
| 21:10:47 | shashlick | not specifying anyting in the command line |
| 21:11:00 | shashlick | it doesn't propagate |
| 21:11:03 | Araq | er use 'declared' instead? |
| 21:11:13 | shashlick | ah |
| 21:11:13 | Araq | a const is never a --define |
| 21:12:48 | shashlick | no luck |
| 21:13:10 | shashlick | so i'm declaring a const in my main module and anything this module imports should see this |
| 21:13:15 | shashlick | obviously exporting the const doesn't help |
| 21:13:23 | shashlick | since the main module isn't being imported |
| 21:14:15 | shashlick | long story short, i want to be able to import packages on a condition |
| 21:24:47 | Araq | well it's a module system, import some module.nim in all the other modules that care about it |
| 21:25:35 | Araq | and in module.nim you can have a const .intdefine. That wasn't so hard now, was it... |
| 21:29:34 | shashlick | that will work for scenario 1 where i want const to have value 1 which means import packageX |
| 21:30:00 | shashlick | but scenario 2 where I don't want to import packageX, i have to set the const to something else - only way is to use command line or a nims file |
| 21:31:56 | shashlick | anyway, all just to avoid creating an extra file |
| 21:32:07 | shashlick | but you really need to reinstate {.define.} 🙂 |
| 21:32:27 | Araq | I don't understand. const useBlas {.intdefine.} = 0 |
| 21:32:32 | Araq | # clients: |
| 21:32:41 | Araq | when useBlas == 1: import blas |
| 21:33:02 | Araq | we're lacking a .booldefine, but ints are ok |

| 23:23:36 | FromDiscord_ | <exelotl> ah thanks, that'll be it |
| 23:24:56 | FromGitter | <zacharycarter> forgive me if I'm way off - but are users being encouraged now to use `-opt:size|speed` rather than `-d:release` ? |
| 23:25:51 | FromGitter | <timotheecour> ya docs arent’ clear on what does -d:release imply; is that size or speed; shd be clarified in a PR instead of just answering here |
| 23:26:32 | FromGitter | <timotheecour> ```@if release: ⏎ opt:speed ⏎ @end``` ⏎ ⏎ so gives ur answer, but shd be clarified in docs [https://gitter.im/nim-lang/Nim?at=5c3fbda81cb70a372aede9cf] |
| 23:28:19 | FromGitter | <timotheecour> (and `nim —dump` shd tell u what r options actually computed so we avoid docs becoming out of sync w code) |
