 @grahamc:nixos.org | I'm probably going to merge https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/pull/1011 here in a minute | 14:09:07 |
 ajs124 | das_j: didn't you say we might need to rework some hook because of that PR?
This isn't really meant as any objection to merging this, just that if we actually need to change anything, someone else also might need to, which might be an issue. | 18:39:27 |

|  Rev. CornWallace III (novus ordo seclorum) changed their display name from cw (just got delta) to cw (novus ordo seclorum). | 07:41:33 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | y'all have failing hooks? tsk tsk :) | 11:36:14 |

y'all have failing hooks? tsk tsk :) Yeah it's the one that bumps our nixpkgs channels. When an older eval is fully built faster than a newer one, git push fails because it's a non-fast-forward push | 11:37:17 |
| das_j | hacky but works | 11:37:20 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | ah nice | 11:44:42 |

| @grahamc:nixos.org | it is astonishing to me how easy it is to just ... write totally wrong code. | 15:15:24 |
 sterni | in perl especially :p | 15:15:41 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | exacttly | 15:15:45 |
| sterni | I think the hydra notify issue you fixed recently is the perfect example for the kind of problems you run into | 15:16:17 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | the one about the missing argument? | 15:16:28 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | I wish it could do the most bare minimum amount of "hey you claim to call this function but that function doesn't exist anywhere at all in perl anywhere" | 15:16:39 |
| sterni | like you can just forget to add a function argument that's required somewhere and it fails very silently unless you add a ton of boilerplate everywhere | 15:16:43 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | yeah | 15:16:47 |
| das_j | isn't it enough to just my (a, b) = @_? | 15:17:21 |
| das_j | That should warn when a variable is not defined or am I wrong here? | 15:17:36 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | lmao that is a top tier perl troll | 15:17:47 |
| das_j | huh? I really don't know any better :D | 15:18:00 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | well for one you can't use $a and $b | 15:18:10 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | two it'll just undef all the rest I think | 15:18:35 |
| das_j | oh wow | 15:18:39 |
| sterni | if you call that function with just one arg b is just undef is the problem | 15:18:45 |
| sterni | at least you can't do $foo if it was never declared | 15:19:03 |
| sterni | and virtually every function will do something half reasonable with undef so it ends up failing in a completely different place usually | 15:19:29 |
