02:44:34FromDiscord<leorize> did you use locking properly?
03:00:38FromDiscord<bung8954> I think so , `initLock` first , then `withLock `when use the `status`
03:20:44FromDiscord<bung8954> another thing I notice, while loop inside serverMain only runs one time

11:02:11FromDiscord<Zoom> In standard library, what's the difference between `system/memory.nimCopyMem` and `system.copyMem`? When should I use the former? There's such a mess with detecting when the latter is available, almost every module does it in slightly different ways.

14:12:17FromDiscord<tauruuuuuus> say I want to mess around a bit with a gui in nim, for like small simple games (e.g. snake clone, minesweeper)
14:12:40FromDiscord<tauruuuuuus> what would you all use for this? I am a bit lost in the nim ui libs space
14:16:45Amun-Rafor simple stuff - SDL

17:46:00eagledotIs it possible to create a temporary view over string aka a slice without copying ?
17:51:25FromDiscord<solitudesf> https://nim-lang.org/docs/system.html#toOpenArray%2Cstring%2Cint%2Cint↵but without using experimental features you can use openArrays as arguments, not variables.
17:57:18eagledotthanks for the info, i was hoping to use it as variable, slice notation is generating a copy, most of time i can get by using `cursor` for such situations!
18:00:12FromDiscord<solitudesf> https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual_experimental.html#view-types you can enable this and see when it breaks
18:02:49FromDiscord<aintea> In reply to @griffith1deadly "but why do you": I'm trying to learn macros
18:02:54FromDiscord<aintea> And for fun
18:03:18FromDiscord<aintea> Wait I'm stupid I can do that one with a template
18:04:51eagledotThanks, it seems to allow `openarray` as types, but isn't `lent` is allowed from `procedures` in the main language now ?

18:11:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I believe if you remove those substrs and only have the openArray[char] there was a compiler error

22:15:56FromDiscord<threefour> Is compile-time switching over the possible types of a generic parameter a thing?
22:16:15FromDiscord<threefour> Without using `when`
22:16:31FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `when` is it, use a macro if you want to make it cleaner
22:16:37FromDiscord<leorize> why would you not use when
22:16:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You could use procedure dispatch aswell if you so wished
22:16:57FromDiscord<leorize> but you can specialize the type parameter I suppose
22:17:00FromDiscord<threefour> Because it's an if statement and a case feels more appropriate

22:18:04FromDiscord<threefour> Whoa
22:18:09FromDiscord<threefour> `when` it is then...
