00:34:28FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> where can I ask questions?
00:35:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That's a question so you best be in the right here
00:36:45FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> `Error: unhandled exception: index 3 not in 0 .. 2 [IndexDefect]` wth is this error?
00:36:56FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> I'm not even using a collection
00:37:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What's the full stack trace?
00:37:51FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Also is this during compiling or runtime?
00:38:17FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u2e
00:38:18FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> compilation, I think
00:38:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Use nim directly
00:38:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `nim c ./yourMain.nim`
00:39:23FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> it's a nimble project
00:39:37FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Sure but nimble likes hiding errors
00:39:51FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> I'm already using `--verbose`
00:40:41FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> And it's the same thing
00:40:44FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Is the source open?
00:40:55FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> ?
00:41:05FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Is the source code open
00:41:37FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> it's my code
00:41:53FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> dunno what you're talking abt
00:42:01FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> ...
00:42:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Do you have a repo that i could clone and compile it
00:42:15FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> no
00:43:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well then comment out the code until it stops erroring
00:43:26FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Seems it's a compiler error
00:43:38FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> what...
00:44:13FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Either comment out the code and recompile until it stops erroring or use a debug compiler to find where the bug is
00:45:31FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> It's not even compiling, though.
00:45:34FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> I can't debug
00:45:38FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That's my point
00:45:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Use a debug compiler
00:45:45FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The compiler is crashing
00:45:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Using a debug compiler will give you stack traces to see where the code is erroring
00:46:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You then can either PR a fix or work around the bug
00:47:33FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> I don't understand what you're saying
00:47:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Build a debug compiler, use said debug compiler to compile your code, get more informative stack trace so you can debug the cause of the code
00:48:17FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> cause of the error
00:50:54FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> `> nim c --debugger:on -r .\src\my_option.nim` like this? what
00:50:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> No
00:51:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What version of Nim are you using?
00:51:56FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> 1.6.12
00:52:33FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you are using 1.6.x get a devel version of the compiler and try to compile your code, if it still fails, follow the build instructions on the nim git repo, then run `./koch temp c ./yournim.nim`
00:53:12FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> koch doesn't exist.
00:53:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> "follow the build instructions"

00:53:44FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> (edit) "exist." => "exist as a command"
01:02:40FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> but the same code works if I just use a string too, forgot to say that
01:02:52FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> and I don't know where to get those
01:02:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What?
01:03:29FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> what?
01:03:35FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yes
01:05:18FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u2i
01:05:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well it's a compiler bug, so either `initPerson` causes it or something else does
01:06:28FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u2j
01:06:44FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Then it's probably the `=>` operator
01:06:50FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> replace that for a normal proc
01:07:19FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> but why does it work with a string then? and why would it cause an error?
01:07:35FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's a compiler bug.... so it's a bug that's why
01:08:04FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> no, it doesn't change anything
01:08:08FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Use a devel compiler to see if it's been fixed, if not minimise it and make an issue
01:08:21FromDiscord<Sun「無用」> again what even is that.
01:08:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> the nightly build of the compiler

01:13:46FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @Dudugz "Because it makes sense,": Anyone?
01:18:33FromDiscord<Dudugz> I configured Github actions to run on ubuntu-latest and set it to install Nim 1.6.12 and run ``nimble test`` but for some reason the socket test doesn't pass at all. I configured the server to use host 127.0.0.1 and port 1028, and the client to connect to it. The client gives connection refused error.
01:18:55FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Does github have some sort of permission system
01:19:22FromDiscord<Dudugz> I think not, is it necessary to use chmod?
01:19:38FromDiscord<Dudugz> I didn't use chmod because I didn't know it was necessary or not
01:19:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Not a clue i've never used github actions
01:19:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I'm not talking about OS permissions as much as container permissions
01:20:30FromDiscord<Dudugz> Hmm, I was trying to set up an automatic test for my project, everything passed the test except the socket that passes on my computer but gives a connection refused on GA
01:20:49FromDiscord<Dudugz> There is no permission setting so I don't think so
01:21:24FromDiscord<demotomohiro> Maybe try other port?↵Or Google "socket github action permission"

06:26:00FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea there is no `del` for `AsyncSocket`
06:26:33FromDiscord<nwb^3> ah thanks

06:35:01FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Isnt 0 fallthrough, I do not recall
06:35:01FromDiscord<Ras> actually, i can just do what the stdlib does? create an asyncNativeSocket and call newAsyncSocket on it manually? i think this would work?
06:35:16FromDiscord<Ras> strace defines it as `ETH_P_???`
06:36:19FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> There is the `newAsyncSocket` that takes cint it seems
06:37:38FromDiscord<Ras> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u3v
06:37:49FromDiscord<Ras> so i can just copy-paste that and remove the.. uh... enumerization?
06:37:52FromDiscord<Ras> i don't know what to call it
06:38:43FromDiscord<Ras> oh wait, i see the issue here
06:39:09FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I'm a bit confused why you need to do anything, can't you just use the cint overload?
06:39:17FromDiscord<Ras> can you elaborate?
06:39:50FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Why doesnt `var mySocket = newAsyncSocket(cint yourDomain, cint yourSockType, 0,...)` work?
06:41:05FromDiscord<Ras> because that calls the proc i pasted above, which does `Protocol(0)` before calling the inner `newAsyncSocket`, which fails on runtime
06:41:38FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Oh i missed that

07:04:15FromDiscord<Ras> thanks
07:07:06FromDiscord<Ras> actually, the root of my problem is still the same. `result.protocol = protocol` - this expects a `Protocol` type, which is an enum where 0 isn't defined
07:07:34FromDiscord<Ras> is there any way to retroactively define 0 as a protocol?

07:49:26FromDiscord<xTrayambak> It shows the default nginx page even when using curl.
07:55:40FromDiscord<Ras> ipv4 vs ipv6?
07:56:03FromDiscord<Ras> maybe they forgot to listen on [::]:443 or whatever
07:56:26FromDiscord<Ras> and your PC doesn't do ipv6, but your phone does?
07:56:28FromDiscord<Ras> wild guess

11:07:12FromDiscord<Oscour> Hi everyone, just a quick question. I created a tuple type in which I would like to put sensor readings. In python it is simply done like `my_named_tuple(array)` by unpacking the array into the named tuple. I would like to know if there is a similar way to populate my named tuple with an array of values ?
11:09:29FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @sOkam! "How would you map": looks fine?
11:09:42FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @Oscour "Hi everyone, just a": no
11:09:49FromDiscord<Rika> well, not without external packages
11:10:39FromDiscord<Oscour> In reply to @Rika "well, not without external": Arf :/
11:11:14FromDiscord<Oscour> I there a way to do it with a for loop? I've been trying for a while but cannot figure out a way to parse the fields and assign them a value
11:11:47FromDiscord<sOkam!> In reply to @Rika "looks fine?": does an `object` have anything in it, other than the fields? just like seq do?
11:12:24FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @sOkam! "does an `object` have": no
11:12:28FromDiscord<sOkam!> the `RequiredLimits` struct has a ton of `uint32_t` in it... so maybe its the alignment of those?
11:14:13FromDiscord<Rika> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u4D
11:14:19FromDiscord<sOkam!> @Gumbercules had these `uint32` mapped as `uint`. what's the difference between uint and uint32 in nim?
11:14:20FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @sOkam! "the `RequiredLimits` struct has": maybe yes
11:14:53FromDiscord<Rika> In reply to @sOkam! "<@204328759715692544> had these": uint is mapped to pointer size iirc?
11:15:19FromDiscord<Rika> so its wrong if you're on 64 bit
11:15:44FromDiscord<sOkam!> This is the original: https://github.com/webgpu-native/webgpu-headers/blob/048341380f41c0d67e66998b3def7b5868380080/webgpu.h#L750-L782↵And this is what I mapped: https://github.com/heysokam/wgpu/blob/c56bc29bf2f006ec270dc6170d2209ebb3ade911/src/wgpu/types.nim#L314-L344

12:20:26FromDiscord<sOkam!> @Rika seems like the values cannot be initialized to 0, that's what was causing the error 🤦‍♂️
12:20:49FromDiscord<sOkam!> is there a way to work with default values in `stable`, before devel becomes the standard?
12:23:03FromDiscord<Yardanico> the only way for stable is to have procs that have default arguments
12:23:14FromDiscord<Yardanico> if you want to use 2.0 features, use devel? :P

12:47:03FromDiscord<Yardanico> fair enough, but chances are you'll have to do all that when you migrate to 2.0 anyway :P
12:47:13FromDiscord<Yardanico> and if you have weird bugs, it's better to report them
12:51:17FromDiscord<sOkam!> it is. but its not great to lose 15-20h chasing a mistake and feeling lost, when the issue didn't come from my code, when im already gigalost in debugging my own code

12:58:00FromDiscord<Oscour> Is there a simple way to convert a tuple into a sequence? Didn't found anything on the subject
13:05:03FromDiscord<Rika> you cant generally convert tuples into sequences because tuples can contain differing types while sequences cannot
13:05:08FromDiscord<sOkam!> In reply to @Oscour "Is there a simple": a tuple is a key+value or any amount of values really, and each of them is a contiguous unique thing↵a seq is a dynamic array
13:05:23FromDiscord<sOkam!> so it only has one single value per item, not multiple like tuples
13:06:42FromDiscord<sOkam!> (edit) "array" => "array, which means it just has a single typed value"
13:07:14FromDiscord<sOkam!> from the look of the question, feels like you are thinking too much in python variant types

13:08:24FromDiscord<Oscour> In reply to @Rika "you cant generally convert": ah yes mb, but I thought it would be possible as all my fields have the same type... I just wanted to convert my readings tuple to a sequence containing its values. I'm gonna write a procedure that does that for me.
13:09:13FromDiscord<Oscour> In reply to @sOkam! "from the look of": That's exactly what's happening. Also because I'm porting a driver written in micropython and that's my first Nim project haha

14:12:54FromDiscord<sOkam!> enums are really powerful in nim. unless you require some weird string-based key+value pairs... you won't need that dictionary-style data format that python uses literally everywhere

18:44:18FromDiscord<Require Support> sorry new coder/programmer and nim is my first experience/lang.. what is a good way of randomizing function names so that their function isnt easily determined from a decompiler/debugger. Ex: I have an `encryptString` proc.. Maybe there are compiler flags that I can use?
18:44:26FromDiscord<Require Support> (edit) "proc.." => "proc."
18:47:37FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @Require Support "sorry new coder/programmer and": you should just strip all debug info
18:47:55FromDiscord<Yardanico> then no one will see any function names except if they're imported from external libraries (like kernel functions etc)
18:48:24FromDiscord<Require Support> In reply to @Yardanico "you should just strip": `-d:release` should do it?
18:48:26FromDiscord<Yardanico> also, half a joke, but please don't make malware in Nim :P
18:48:35FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @Require Support "`-d:release` should do it?": no, you should use external stripping tools to be 100% sure

19:22:29FromDiscord<Yardanico> upx is not going to help with that

19:46:51NimEventerNew thread by JohnAD: Viability of a website generator using nim., see https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/10127
20:10:50FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> anyone tried doing a miniKanren impl in Nim?↵http://minikanren.org/
20:10:55FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> might be a fun project
20:11:25FromDiscord<Yardanico> never heard of anyone mentioning it, so probably no
20:11:31FromDiscord<Yardanico> but there's a lisp interpreter in nim
20:12:20FromDiscord<Yardanico> and of course i bet you can implement it as a DSL in Nim itself (with Nim syntax of course)
20:15:09FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> it has its roots in scheme because of minikanren's originators (Friedman and Byrd – have met them both, great people) but it can be implemented in just about any lang, it seems
20:15:31FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> I never played with the ideas much, just saw a cool presentation about them (by Friendman and Byrd)
20:15:35FromDiscord<Yardanico> i mean, obviously you can implement any language in any (turing complete) language
20:15:46FromDiscord<Yardanico> if you make a interpreter, and not integrate directly in the host language
20:19:06FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> sure, makes sense
20:20:17FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @michaelb.eth "sure, makes sense": for langdev we have #langdev actually

20:23:01FromDiscord<Yardanico> In reply to @Dudugz "Is it possible to": you can just use foo (module) itself as a namespace
20:23:10FromDiscord<Yardanico> with `from foo import nil` the compiler will require you to qualify all symbols from foo, always
20:23:12FromDiscord<Dudugz> It's basically an enumerator but dynamic, I don't want to create loose variables in the global scope because it makes it more difficult to find them with autocomplete.
20:23:18FromDiscord<Yardanico> (which doesn't work well with somethings like overloading)
20:23:27FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @Yardanico "with `from foo import": ooh, that's nice, thx

20:23:55FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> But i'd do what Yard did cause it makes more sense
20:24:07FromDiscord<Dudugz> yea, i'll do ``from foo import nil``
20:24:15FromDiscord<Dudugz> makes more sense, thx both of u
20:24:38FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well mine represents what you wanted more 😄
20:24:54FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Type base namespace with type attached procedures!
20:25:02FromDiscord<Yardanico> yes beef's answer is more cool
20:25:05FromDiscord<Yardanico> cooler
20:25:07FromDiscord<Yardanico> wow
20:25:12FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I dislike mine though
20:25:15FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Cause it forces you to use a type
20:25:26FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I know status' toml does this inanity
20:25:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> In a world i have to do `Toml.parse` is a terrible one
20:25:43FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reality all I want is a namespace, it doesn't matter if it's a type or not, I used type as an example only because in other languages allowing static types it makes sense.
20:25:55FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @Yardanico "yes beef's answer is": i do this with ``new`` proc :v
20:26:12FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well the `distinct void` here means it cannot be instantiated, so it really is a compile time only type
20:26:13FromDiscord<Dudugz> so you can Type.new(values) or new Type if have no params
20:26:37FromDiscord<Dudugz> (edit) "Type.new(values)" => "``Type.new(values)``" | "new Type" => "``new Type``"
20:26:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> For types there already is a `new` defined btw
20:26:51FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> so you do not need to define anything if you're defaulting
20:26:54FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Plus you can just do `Type()`
20:27:08FromDiscord<Dudugz> yea but params... and private fields
20:27:19FromDiscord<Dudugz> you can't use Type() on private fields
20:27:30FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You technically can, but i digress
20:27:45FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> No one should use `std/importutils` unless they're hacking
20:27:48FromDiscord<Yardanico> yeah
20:27:50FromDiscord<Dudugz> yea
20:27:58FromDiscord<Yardanico> with {.all.} and that you can import all private symbols of a module and all fields of a type
20:28:04FromDiscord<Yardanico> lemme bring up that cursed thing
20:28:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> all doesnt import fields
20:28:09FromDiscord<Dudugz> you can, but shouldn't
20:28:13FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> In reply to @Dudugz "you can't use Type()": so generally for that you create a `.init` or `.new` proc

21:39:07FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Who would've thought the": lol I hadn't read this before, I agree, the only disappointing thing about Nim is using python's block mechanism (identation)
21:39:29FromDiscord<Dudugz> I prefer to use { and } to delimit blocks as it makes it clear where a block of code begins and ends.
21:39:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I was jokingly talking about my implementation in my toy language exploding
21:39:39FromDiscord<Dudugz> oh lol
21:39:44FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I do not see the benefit in `{}` aside from parsin
21:40:00FromDiscord<Dudugz> :v readability
21:40:14FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The code is identical with `{}` or not
21:40:29FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you do not write white space significant compatible code, you're purposely being a dick 😄
21:40:30FromDiscord<Dudugz> so you don't have to compare if something is more spaced or not to find which block it was defined in, it's already clear where everything is.
21:40:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> This is why editors have indent colours/lines
21:40:49FromDiscord<Dudugz> lol i always use 2 spaces
21:41:09FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I can also argue that nested `{}` does not make it any easier

21:44:50FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Blockman doesnt modify the behaviour of the language 😄
21:44:51FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It just renders code differently
21:45:13FromDiscord<Dudugz> :v nah, I'll stick with what the language offers
21:45:42FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The bug with callbacks is not due to lacking `{}`
21:45:48FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Consider a lambda in another language `doStuff( (a) => a, true)`
21:45:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That doesnt have `{}` and it's still distinguishable
21:46:12FromDiscord<Dudugz> yeah i'm saying it's a bug
21:46:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> But it's not caused by lacking `{}`
21:47:01FromDiscord<Dudugz> Arrow functions in JS have their behavior well defined, tho procs in Nim cannot be expressed as arrow fns without sugar
21:47:13FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That's not the point
21:47:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The point is that it proves that `{}` does not disambiguate

21:49:42FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> This isnt a bug, this is design
21:49:51FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you want to disambiguate wrap the proc into a stmt list
21:50:17FromDiscord<Dudugz> '-' then it will give an error because doStuff is not receiving true, where should I go why did the proc end up echoing "Hello"? This is the whole point of {}

21:53:31FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Worth being clear this 'bug' is not even apart of whitespace, it's due to an unrelated design feature
21:53:45FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If command syntax didnt exist the above would likely compile just fine
21:54:06FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Since a `,` would terminate a line aswell as `;` would so it'd go "Ok this proc body is done, go to the next argument"
21:54:27FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> So if anything you should complain about command syntax existing
21:55:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> And then i'd slap you for just complaining about everything 😛
21:55:36FromDiscord<Dudugz> Well, from my point of view I consider it a bug, since ``,`` shouldn't be a valid syntax in a function body.
21:55:50FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Except it is cause it's command syntax

If the parser it works that way intentionally or not so there's nothing to do until they clearly decide how it should interpret ambiguities like these.

22:04:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> There is no way of making this work without making dispatch very very complicated
22:05:07FromDiscord<Dudugz> Hmm
22:05:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Like you're implying the compiler should sem a proc, attempt to call `doStuff` go "Shit this doesnt compile, see if the last thing is a command syntax and the last argument(s) is the same as the next arguments, if so move them around"
22:06:44FromDiscord<Dudugz> Yeah, probably not, what happens in JS is that ArrowFunction is a whole new type in the syntax tree, when it finds a comma after an expression it evaluates whether it's used as a callback or not and whether this comma is valid in the arrow function expression before determining whether this comma is used as a parameter delimiter or is part of the syntax.
22:06:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I mean i know the Nim ast
22:07:06FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's a `nkLambda`
22:07:19FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's body is a `nkCall(echo, "hello", true)`
22:07:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> When do stuff is semantically checked and fails to compile due to a `nkLambda` you're implying that we should unpack the lambda and try again
22:08:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> This also is a recursive process
22:08:40FromDiscord<Dudugz> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u7c
22:08:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> cause imagine you have a \`proc(p\: proc(), b\: bool, i\: int)
22:09:06FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @Elegantbeef "When do stuff is": Got it
22:09:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> you do `myProc(proc() = echo "hello", true, int)`
22:09:51FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You have to chip off the int first to see if it matches a `myProc(proc(), int)` then chip off the bool to see if it matches a `myProc(proc(), bool, int)`
22:10:16FromDiscord<Dudugz> Hmm
22:10:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I pretty much proved it's the command syntax that causes this 'ambiguity'
22:10:33FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `echo("hello"), true` compiles
22:11:10FromDiscord<Dudugz> Well yes, in part it is but you said that with echo("Hello") it works so part of the blame goes to the high flexibility of the language that allows functions to be called without ()
22:11:17FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> As soon as we told the compiler "Here are all the arguments you concern yourself with" it no longer jumped to the `,`
22:11:48FromDiscord<Dudugz> Because () also plays an important role in delimiting where the parameters of a function begin and end
22:12:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea my point is you are not blaming lack of `{}` cause even in languages with lambda they work, it's the command syntax
22:12:43FromDiscord<Dudugz> Hm yeah that makes sense, it's just that from my point of view with brackets the parser would know exactly where the function body ended up
22:12:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Sure and we have `()` if you want to use them
22:13:07FromDiscord<Dudugz> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4u7e
22:13:26FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `doStuff(proc = (echo "hello"), true)` 😛
22:14:09FromDiscord<Dudugz> Ugly :v ``(proc = echo "Hello")`` looks better, or just ``echo("Hello")`` to avoid ambiguity
22:14:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Lol
22:14:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> So clearly you dislike `{}` as you find `()` ugly in their place
22:14:37FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Checkmate libtard!
22:14:45FromDiscord<Dudugz> lol
22:15:22FromDiscord<Dudugz> It's just that it makes it look like I took the parentheses that were supposed to be in the function call and wrapped the function with them, it looks more confusing than it should be
22:15:48FromDiscord<Dudugz> like instead of ``echo("Hello")`` you do ``(echo "Hello")``
22:16:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea yea i still stand `{}` only solves parsing woes
22:17:05FromDiscord<Dudugz> Yup
22:17:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you write code that is not valid significant whitespace i hope your socks are always wet
22:17:44FromDiscord<Dudugz> lmao, no, that I make sure to do.
22:17:46FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I hope microwave food is always cold in the centre, I hope your pencil lead always breaks
22:18:12FromDiscord<Dudugz> Even with {} I do this to make the code readable
22:18:53FromDiscord<Dudugz> The difference between having {} and not having is just having a visual hint of where a block starts and ends, you don't have to waste time trying to understand where a block started and where it ended
22:20:54FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Sure but that's what indention lines/rainbows are good for
22:21:03FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Or blockman if you're living in 2077
22:21:24FromDiscord<Dudugz> I had never heard of this feature until today lol, I'll look it up and see if there's any extensions for vscode
22:21:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Indention lines are built in
22:21:57FromDiscord<Dudugz> I speak of the colors, the lines yes
22:28:17FromDiscord<Gumbercules> In reply to @sOkam! "<@204328759715692544> had these": A uint in C is not the same as a uint in Nim
22:29:52FromDiscord<Gumbercules> A unsigned long in C would be 32 or 64 bytes and an unsigned integer would be 16 or 32
22:29:58FromDiscord<Gumbercules> (edit) "A" => "An"
22:48:31FromDiscord<Dudugz> Well another problem I have is this, I'm clearly not using try..except but Nim insists on giving me this warning and points to an internal file (asyncmacro.nim) which indeed does. It happens with every file that I declare an async proc. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1099829178452426784/image.png
22:48:39FromDiscord<Dudugz> btw Nim 1.6.12
22:49:23FromDiscord<Dudugz> https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1099829398942781550/image.png
22:51:15FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Well that's what happens when features are added in a patch
22:51:18FromDiscord<Yardanico> yes, this is known
22:51:30FromDiscord<Yardanico> <https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/21537>
22:51:36FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `switch("warning[BareExcept]", "off")`
22:53:07FromDiscord<Dudugz> sure, thx
23:00:11FromDiscord<Dudugz> In reply to @Elegantbeef "`switch("warning[BareExcept]", "off")`": This is invalid, with ``switch("warning", "BareExcept:off")`` it worked
23:04:09FromDiscord<Yardanico> or just
23:04:13FromDiscord<Yardanico> warning("BareExcept", off)
23:04:18FromDiscord<Yardanico> https://nim-lang.org/docs/nimscript.html#warning%2Cstring%2Cbool
23:04:40FromDiscord<Yardanico> fyi, on/off are the same as true/false, you can use them anywhere you've used true/false
23:04:49FromDiscord<Yardanico> I mean in Nim itself generally
23:08:05FromDiscord<Dudugz> Hmm, sure, thx
23:08:31FromDiscord<Dudugz> I forget that .nims files are basically Nim
23:09:15FromDiscord<Dudugz> At first I saw .nimble and .nims files as configuration files like JSON, YAML, INI
