In reply to @qyriad:katesiria.org
There's an open PR for it, but views::enumerate is surprisingly tricky https://brevzin.github.io/c++/2022/12/05/enumerate/
I hate that enumerate uses a signed type…
10:11:29
@qyriad:katesiria.orgQyriad gods I know right 10:11:58
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)It’s like the classic C++ committee stupidity. Like why difference_type10:12:27
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)There’s a mandatory talk about views::filter10:13:51
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)It’s so full of footguns like being not thread safe10:14:06
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)Or rather “it’s not thread safe if you call begin() for the first time concurrently”10:14:48
@xokdvium:matrix.orgSergei Zimmerman (xokdvium)And modifying elements is also UB when it changes the predicate10:15:38
@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchs* All the lixcon talks I’ve seen recordings of so far are super great! Thanks for sharing them with all of us who couldn’t make it12:00:02
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) with regards to #1175, does saving each typed line ourselves (e.g. in an std::list or std::vector?) and then appending it to the file sound good? if so i can try to make a CL for it, but i want to get a vibe-check for it first 12:26:04

@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesHm, would simply saving the history after each command also work around the issue?12:46:25
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegames(Not sure if that's a good idea either)12:46:41
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) no unfortunately, unless we also reload the history before each prompt, because otherwise we'll still be writing the "outdated" history to the file 12:48:12
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)for most people it shouldn't be an enormous burden, but idk it feels dirty and pretty fragile12:50:44

That's what I meant yes
12:55:12
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)* for most people it shouldn't be an enormous burden, but idk it feels dirty and pretty fragile (we'd be at the mercy of disk I/O timings)12:56:10

@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk) personally i don't feel like that's a better solution :/
in part because of the aforementioned fragility+timing, but also because it'd then have the side effect of sharing the history between every repl session, which is an antifeature imo (i often have two repl sessions side-by-side to trying out different things, or i open a quick repl to check something for a bigger expr or something; if both sessions are shared i have to wade through the other repl's history while trying to navigate the current session's history because they're now all confusingly interleaved... there's a reason i generally disable zsh's SHARE_HISTORY option @_@)
13:04:06
@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesI see13:11:14
@goldstein:tty5.devgoldsteinofftopic, but thank you for teaching me I can just disable SHARE_HISTORY, this was annoying me immensely14:46:20
@blokyk:matrix.orgzoë (@blokyk)

there's actually multiple mutually-exclusive settings that control zsh, each one making you go "wait, the other one didn't do that?!" :D

@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchs also can I just say log-format = multiline-with-logs is so nice! first time I'm customizing that log format and it is far easier to see what's going on during nix build 17:29:53
@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchs (the explanation in the manual is a little less clear re. the differences to bar-with-logs though. is the diff that multiline-with-logs shows the currently active tasks below the bar?) 17:31:09
@kloenk:kloenk.eukloenkyeah essentially. sorry I'm bad with describing some things :)17:33:59
@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchsOn a re-read that’s what it says! Just hard to form a mental picture without seeing it in action tbh19:56:35
