00:04:27FromDiscord<michaelb.eth> In reply to @whisperecean "Does cosmopolitan work nicely": you can look into: https://github.com/Yardanico/cosmonim↵↵it might work great with Nim but I haven’t seen much discussion of it in this discord nor in the forum so ymmv
00:12:16FromDiscord<jviega> Not sure why people seem to be so enthralled by cosmopolitan. Last I checked it requires a linux exe file type handler be added to Linux to run. You're in a better place if you ship a shell script that uudecodes the correct exe for your platform, and in an even better place if you ship a shell script that pulls down the right version for the architecture.
00:25:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea it's an odd thing
00:25:45FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It seems like a cool idea, but it does not work for any GUI programs and you might as well work on cross compiling better like Zig does
00:27:14FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If clang adopted the Zig cross compilation stuffs, it'd be preferable to using something like cosmo

02:11:40FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> I'm getting a bunch of these errors in my code: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1178880860016095242/Screen_Shot_2023-11-27_at_8.10.59_PM.png?ex=6577c15b&is=65654c5b&hm=63b199cbda3f27ae6ba94c4d56768b441c38ff37e46a73e2ef00c511f281fa03&

02:12:47FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> I just cannot figure out what is causing the issue 😦
02:15:05FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Looking at the code now but I'm 99% certain you have an unconstrained generic
02:15:34FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `links` inside of `KanBantree` lacks a generic parameter
02:15:46FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Ahhh okay
02:15:54FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> But I want it to be able to hold any kind of link
02:16:05FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nim generics are compile time only
02:16:47FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Would I be better off using an enum as one of the fields instead of generics?
02:16:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4MF9
02:17:10FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Oh, that works, too
02:18:16FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You are likely better to use an object variant
02:18:48FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Okay, making that change didn't break things further, but I'm still getting the same error
02:19:17FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Your table should be `links: Table[string, LinkBase]`
02:19:27FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Yep, I changed that
02:19:35FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Everywhere you use `Link` should be that
02:19:54*averymt left #nim (Leaving)
02:20:20FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> The only other place that I use Link right now is in the Link constructor
02:20:36FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's in `Card`
02:20:37FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4MFb
02:20:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's an awful error message but it is what it is 😄
02:21:08FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Good catch, but that didn't resolve it
02:21:11FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That error message generally means "You have an incorrect generic type, or type annotation"
02:23:25FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> These are the errors that appear right now https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1178883813556895805/Screen_Shot_2023-11-27_at_8.23.09_PM.png?ex=6577c41b&is=65654f1b&hm=807af6cef187b04a9d4ff4f9c0fdd0a8f8235c1b377440bedf4284539d4133ee&
02:24:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I do not see any other usages of Link, nor any uninstantiated generics
02:24:33FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Assuming you got both the `Link` and `seq[Link]` changed
02:24:33FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Want to throw your current code here https://play.nim-lang.org/?
02:24:38FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What the compiler says is always more pertinent 😄
02:25:36FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4MFc
02:27:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Oh you have a few `file = string` apparently
02:27:30FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You should use inheritance to reduce redundant code
02:27:48FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `file, name, description` can all be shared in a single object
02:30:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You did find a bug "Defaulting a value to a type silently works"
02:30:52FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> image.png https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1178885692219207720/image.png?ex=6577c5db&is=656550db&hm=f402885fa8c3f79dd917ae2acb8d7689c6ad1c5d605db195cc8678d46645bf33&
02:30:52FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The fuck github
02:32:00FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Okay, I added in a new type `KanbanObj`, which has `file`, `name`, `description`, and `loaded` as fields and all of my other objects inherit from this (I eliminated the `LinkObj` type and had `Link` inherit from it)
02:34:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nice now you should not have an error, and less redundant code
02:34:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I will say that unless you have super wild `T` values for `Link` I'd suggest using an object variant
02:36:06FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Can you explain what you mean by that?
02:36:11FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Unrelated, but I feel like your name is a ubuntu version
02:36:29FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> https://nim-lang.org/docs/tut2.html#object-oriented-programming-object-variants
02:36:48FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Instead of using generics, you can use a tagged union of all your possible values
02:36:49FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Okay, cool. So having an enum for the type of Link
02:37:18FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Link will only ever contain one of my types or string
02:37:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Then in that case a branch for every one of your types + string seems very sensible
02:37:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> This ensures that you handle ever case everywhere you use it
02:38:15FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you dispatch on it you do `case myLink.kind` and handle every branch, instead of using methods and silently not
02:38:37FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Plus this is more strongly typed as you explicitly define type branches
02:42:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Oh and amun-ra that issue is only really a problem on windows since `nimcall` is cdecl on linux 😄
02:47:39FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Okay, thank you so much for your help so far
02:49:00FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> I implemented object variants for Link and adjusted all the other code (including my deprecated way of adding items to a table), but I'm still getting an error about using `string` for `KanbanObj.file`
02:49:32FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4MFh
02:51:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You changed it to `file: string`?
02:52:02FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Yep, line 5
02:52:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea you need to use `file: string`
02:52:22FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> ugh
02:52:25FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> so stupid
02:53:56FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> It compiles!!!
02:53:57FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Thank you
02:54:23FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> It sucks when there's real issues mixed in with stupid issues, like using `=` instead of `:`
02:56:35FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea on the plus side https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/22996
02:57:19FromDiscord<lanky.lemur> Yeah! It's the compiler's fault, not mine!

07:38:19FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Compiler does matter if you do not prepare for it, but it's likely for static libraries
07:39:11FromDiscord<Phil> So for static linking a lib from gcc is not interoperable with one for clang (as a linux analogy, no idea what ucrt is)
07:39:14FromDiscord<Phil> (edit) "is)" => "is)?"

07:41:37FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Ah you jumped over there
07:41:46FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Saving me wasting the precious resource of internet bandwidth
07:41:47FromDiscord<Phil> This does not apply to dynamically loaded libs I take it because I feel like that kind of complexity I'd have noticed
07:41:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> By prepare for it I mean properly expose things and not rely on compiler behaviour to expose symbols
07:41:57FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Correct
07:41:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Static libraries are practically funny object files, which are specific to the compiler
07:42:16FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Partially right, actual dynamic libraries are fine as they have an exposed ABI
07:42:40FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> We generally agree on this using 'Ctypes' and 'C calling conventions'
07:42:54FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Sorta standard ABI that should not explode in your face
07:43:26FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> For an ABI to be usable from any other compiler the fields have to have the same offsets, calling conventions have to be the same and more!
07:44:29FromDiscord<Phil> Okay, then next question, why recommend installing static libs to compile owlkettle on windows?↵That basically means you're making a static binary of every owlkettle project, right? Why not use DLLs same as on Linux?
07:44:47FromDiscord<Phil> (edit) "Okay, then next question, why recommend installing static libs to compile owlkettle ... on" added "projects"
07:45:12FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Cause windows does not ship gtk
07:45:14FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Linux ships gtk
07:45:26FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Well "Ships it" is a silly statement for linux
07:45:39FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> But gtk is generally available on 99% of users setups running linux
07:45:53FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> GTK is a big project that's like 40+ mb on windows
07:46:07FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Shipping what you do not use with every project quickly can add up
07:46:20FromDiscord<Phil> Yeah but isn't the general way of shipping applications providing an installation wizard that installs the application?↵As part of that you could just add said libs to the users DLL direcotires
07:46:23FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> But if you statically link and only include what you use it quickly gets down to a much more managable sub 10MB size
07:46:29FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Right you can
07:46:37FromDiscord<Phil> Or has the world moved on and windows users are all on static binaries nowadays?
07:46:40FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> But some view that as ugly and a waste of time when static linking would've sufficed
07:46:48FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> I mean windows has always been static binaries in disguise
07:46:55FromDiscord<Phil> TIL
07:46:57FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> They always shit the dlls next to the exe
07:47:01FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> (edit) "shit" => "ship"
07:47:08FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Like on windows there is 0 regard to DLL reuse
07:48:20FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Of course it's still dynamic linking but given that you're tying the dlls to the program it's only difference is you can update the dlls or replace them with reimplmentations
07:48:32FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> It defeats the main purpose of size savings that dlls give you
07:49:55FromDiscord<Phil> Actually that's also an interesting questions:↵What are all the differences between e.g. a 100MB statically linked binary vs. 3x 33mb DLLs and a 1mb binary?↵I assume statically linked binaries are slightly faster since static compilation means you can link things together more... well statically.
07:50:08FromDiscord<Phil> (edit) "statically." => "statically and don't need to spend time loading anything."
07:50:15FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> The main difference is no opening dlls and smaller binaries
07:50:24FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Statically linked binaries only include what's needed
07:50:30FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> If you do not use a procedure it's not there
07:50:40FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Dynamic libraries ship the kitchen sink, so everything you might ever use is there
07:51:28FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> There should be no implicit overhead to a DLL with the exception that the logic is inlined when using a static library(due to the fact it can actually see the body at link time)
07:52:02FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> There is slight startup time when loading the dll, but barring that it's all just procedures
07:53:17*kenran quit (Remote host closed the connection)
07:53:20FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Your example of 100mb vs 3 33mb is flawed of course due to the fact it'd only work that way if you used 100% of the dlls
07:53:31FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Which is possible but is highly unlikely 😛

07:55:40FromDiscord<Phil> And the fact there were separate installation steps for GTK libs was confusing to me
07:55:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I should've just forced you to benchmark the dll vs. static just to not take my word for it

14:40:49FromDiscord<ravinder387> is that true. if language share same feature then iterop become easy. for ex:- nim <--> vlang becoz they both static compiled , gc. than nim <--> C

18:58:14FromDiscord<nnsee> using nim

18:59:18om3gaWhich came first, the chicken or the egg?
18:59:56FromDiscord<alxhr0> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4MJb
19:00:19om3gaI mean, modifying these csources for new os is not the best experience

19:01:30Amun-Raom3ga: the egg
19:02:49om3gaAmun-Ra, probably I need to see first commits? or code looks there the same?
19:16:14FromDiscord<nervecenter> In reply to @NimEventer "New post on r/nim": Done.
19:35:00FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> Ugh I need the energy for my projects
19:35:30Amun-RaChronos: have you ever tried Red Bull? ;)

19:40:25FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> Nope, I've had Monster energy drinks though
19:40:29FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> And they make me sleepy
19:40:34FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> Sleepy/calm
19:40:42FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Cocaine!
19:40:46FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> Not energised or hyper, hyper is my natural state of being
19:40:51FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You'll have a lot of energy, but probably worse health if you take my joke suggestion.
19:41:01FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Cocaine!": I mean some ADHD meds are basically diet meth-
19:44:37Amun-Ra;P
19:47:52FromDiscord<saint.___.> Anyone going to be doing advent of code in nim?
19:48:07FromDiscord<saint.___.> In reply to @chronos.vitaqua "I mean some ADHD": Some ADHD meds are actual meth
19:48:38FromDiscord<saint.___.> desoxyn
20:00:31FromDiscord<JJ> In reply to @saint.___. "Anyone going to be": yeah, a bunch. there's a couple of leaderboards: https://nim-lang.org/blog/2021/11/26/advent-of-nim-2021.html
20:10:01FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> In reply to @saint.___. "Anyone going to be": Perhaps, not sure
20:12:15FromDiscord<Chronos [She/Her]> In reply to @saint.___. "Some ADHD meds are": Not surprised oof
20:20:38FromDiscord<saint.___.> Awesome!
20:21:00FromDiscord<saint.___.> In reply to @omentic "yeah, a bunch. there's": Awesome
20:21:01FromDiscord<saint.___.> (edit) "Awesome" => "Awesome!"
20:31:49FromDiscord<saint.___.> In reply to @Amun-Ra "Chronos: have you ever": Redbull and monster are both great but I quit caffeine, almost a year
20:31:51FromDiscord<saint.___.> Can sleep a lot better
20:32:16FromDiscord<saint.___.> Was never super big into it but just thought I should take an effort to cut it out completely
20:58:07FromDiscord<bostonboston> Can object variants not have default values?
21:07:48FromDiscord<bostonboston> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4MK2
21:07:58FromDiscord<bostonboston> Wow that did not paste nicely
21:09:50FromDiscord<bostonboston> Anyways this errors with "the TimeBase type doesn't have a default value. The following fields must be initialized: timebaseBits."
21:10:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I assume object variants do not work with strict defs, but idk
21:11:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Unrelated but you do not need commas for enums
21:11:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Enums are fine with newline seperated fields

22:03:25FromDiscord<guttural666> quick question, how is this proc called if the docs look like this: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1179180771253166224/image.png?ex=6578d8ab&is=656663ab&hm=aa376f37c8258b25340eaae365b6627cff7feba56cf559ab547a57b9ba10eced&
22:04:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `myFut.callBack = proc(_: Future[T]) = discard`
22:10:46FromDiscord<guttural666> then I had the right idea, thanks
22:25:59FromDiscord<bostonboston> I love that syntax
22:40:37FromDiscord<guttural666> has the Nim plugin for Vscode stopped working for anybody?
22:42:44FromDiscord<bostonboston> Don't think so
22:43:17FromDiscord<guttural666> just stopped highlighting errores
22:43:21FromDiscord<guttural666> (edit) "errores" => "errors"
22:44:07FromDiscord<bostonboston> If you compile what happens
22:44:48FromDiscord<bostonboston> For me when I'm using templates and there's errors their expansion usually halts other errors from being shown

22:47:47FromDiscord<guttural666> I compile with -d:ssl
22:49:21FromDiscord<intellij_gamer> Have you made a HTTP client be a const? (Or tried to make a request in a static context?)
22:51:39FromDiscord<guttural666> I included it in a Scheduler object to not have to initialize a new one every time yeah
22:54:32FromDiscord<intellij_gamer> Ah thats a no can do↵Since it requires C stuff it can't run at compile time (think thats what libffi is for but I've never used it)
22:55:25FromDiscord<guttural666> hm, yeah just reverted that and now it complains again as it should
22:55:27FromDiscord<guttural666> thanks!
23:30:34FromDiscord<guttural666> can somebody explain why I had to add gcsafe here and what the implications are for fulfilling that on the call site? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/371759389889003532/1179202704011182133/image.png?ex=6578ed19&is=65667819&hm=679da5b616fa4ca959903058bb2af9c1c7c67387a2235a1180a116c1ce4f7175&
23:31:16FromDiscord<guttural666> (edit) "on" => "at"
23:31:56FromDiscord<guttural666> maybe to do with threading?
23:38:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Cause the callback needs to be gcsafe, yes it's in relation to threading, but `gcsafe` is apart of type matching
23:38:23FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> As such a proc without gcsafe is not the same as a proc with it
23:45:46FromDiscord<guttural666> what would make my callback gcsafe? no ref allocations?
23:46:20FromDiscord<guttural666> I just want to take the result, parse it and commit the parsed result to the database
23:47:10*jmdaemon joined #nim
23:47:11FromDiscord<guttural666> or: will the compiler complain if I pass a proc in that is not in fact gcsafe, so I can just wait and find out 😛
