2021-10-05 03:51:58 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> Wooh, installing `v0.16.99999` locally via nix was quite the adventure, and I still haven't quite figured out the overlay part of it yet. I'll get to that though. Then I may actually decide to dedicate some of my free-time to learning haskell more with xmonad.
2021-10-05 03:52:22 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> Because, I don't want to become dependent upon stack/cabal directly again.

2021-10-05 15:08:55 +0200 <liskin> well, they may as well be; they opened a couple issues on other repos and while all are about READMEs, it's not just a template, it is personalized
2021-10-05 15:10:55 +0200 <liskin> and I'm not sure if mentoring complete beginners who may need a couple more years to get into Haskell is worth it at this point of the project, so I'd say it's somewhat fair to call it shitoberfest, although maybe not entirely fair
2021-10-05 15:11:57 +0200 <liskin> (but I'm not complaining or anything, it was just an amused remark; I really don't think we're the kind of project that's likely to attract dozens of useless single-word PRs)
2021-10-05 15:12:32 +0200 <Solid> yeah I just checked their profile ._.
2021-10-05 15:13:36 +0200 <Solid> but realistically, xmonad's code base does not use many fancy techniques, I reckon it wouldn't take all that long for a dedicated beginner to start contributing
2021-10-05 15:13:48 +0200 <Solid> (not applicable in this case, of course, but still)
2021-10-05 15:14:28 +0200 <geekosaur> I'd argue that we could use a dedicated beginner to overhaul the docs a bit. just don't think that's a very good start
2021-10-05 15:14:46 +0200 <geekosaur> (and the bloody wiki)
2021-10-05 15:16:28 +0200 <geekosaur> I mean, some of the contrib docs could use a fair amount of love
2021-10-05 15:18:34 +0200 <liskin> yeah, that's probably right, a dedicated talented (e.g.) 15-year old can get a lot of stuff done, true

2021-10-05 17:17:48 +0200 <eezo[m]> btw, how do you make a good-performing "reverse" tall layout? That is, master on the right? I'm using `reflectHoriz Tall` as seen in my xmonad.hs screenshot:
2021-10-05 17:18:31 +0200 <eezo[m]> but that makes movement backwards: `M-h` & `M-l` do the opposite of what I want
2021-10-05 17:22:49 +0200 <eezo[m]> sorry, not movement - resizing
2021-10-05 17:24:54 +0200geekosaurwonders if you can reflectHoriz something involving https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.16/docs/XMonad-Layout-Master.html
2021-10-05 17:27:16 +0200 <Solid> it might make more sense if you think of M-h and M-l not as "expand and shrink left to right" but as "expand and shrink the master pane" (which is what they do)

2021-10-05 17:38:37 +0200 <liskin> hence I don't actually use it very often, and when the number of windows is expected to be static, just increasing the number of windows in the master pane is probably what I end up doing :-)

2021-10-05 17:40:21 +0200 <Solid> what's going on with the nicknames btw; can you change your IRC display name in matrix?
2021-10-05 17:42:01 +0200 <Tisoxin> Solid: yes, you cane
2021-10-05 17:42:15 +0200 <Tisoxin> *can
2021-10-05 17:43:19 +0200 <Solid> that's pretty neat; but also very confusing because it doesn't change the highlights

2021-10-05 17:44:07 +0200 <Solid> so I see jakefromstatefar highlighting "vherrmann[m]" and then Tisoxin is answering as if addressed x)
2021-10-05 17:44:52 +0200 <Tisoxin> I think jakefromstatefarm[m] could also adress me with @Tosixon

2021-10-05 17:46:21 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> All your messages are coming through `vhrerrmann[m]:libera.chat`. I've not seen a single message from @Toxison, in fact, my tab completion for names doesn't even give me the ability to mention that handle.
2021-10-05 17:46:30 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> On my side, anyway
2021-10-05 17:47:15 +0200 <Tisoxin> the same applies to you as well
2021-10-05 17:47:26 +0200 <Solid> oh are you two on different matrix channels

2021-10-05 19:12:57 +0200 <liskin> mc47: oh, I didn't connect those contributions to hacktoberfest :-)
2021-10-05 19:14:14 +0200 <liskin> and now that I looked at the diff for the second time, I almost feel like I can understand what's going on
2021-10-05 19:14:35 +0200 <liskin> not enough to be able to tell whether the commit message is a good one or not, though
2021-10-05 19:17:22 +0200 <mc47> liskin, I think I know what you mean (I took a look at the hacktoberfest user's issues, they seem like they're farming them)
2021-10-05 19:17:42 +0200 <mc47> Yeah I'm not sure I understand that commit message too, but I guess it's good enough
2021-10-05 19:17:53 +0200 <liskin> mc47: did you not notice the shitstorm last year btw?
2021-10-05 19:18:22 +0200 <mc47> I wasn't around last year ;)
2021-10-05 19:18:38 +0200 <Solid> we didn't get hit
2021-10-05 19:18:42 +0200 <Solid> but a lot of other projects did
2021-10-05 19:19:03 +0200 <Solid> (we also didn't participate, which explains the former ;))
2021-10-05 19:19:21 +0200 <liskin> well "didn't participate" isn't technically correct
2021-10-05 19:19:33 +0200 <liskin> before the shitstorm participation was opt out
2021-10-05 19:19:52 +0200 <Solid> oh was it?
2021-10-05 19:19:58 +0200 <Solid> interesting
2021-10-05 19:20:23 +0200 <liskin> yeah, I got a bunch of t-shirts a couple years back making ordinary contributions to projects that had no idea
2021-10-05 19:20:34 +0200 <liskin> hacktoberfest just happened to be good timing
2021-10-05 19:21:04 +0200 <liskin> but last year some indian youtuber told people how to exploit it, and some projects were hit really hard, so they made it opt-in after the first week or something
2021-10-05 19:21:15 +0200 <liskin> and then kept adjusting the rules for the rest of the month
2021-10-05 19:21:22 +0200 <mc47> Is it still opt-in?
2021-10-05 19:22:02 +0200 <liskin> yes, it is, and there are now guidelines how to mark PRs as spam so that it's harder to exploit it to get a free swag
2021-10-05 19:22:16 +0200 <liskin> and also this year maintainers can get a t-shirt just for reviewing stuff
2021-10-05 19:22:29 +0200 <liskin> so I guess if I merge the two nix PRs I'm halfway there :-)
2021-10-05 19:22:37 +0200 <Solid> :D
2021-10-05 19:22:42 +0200 <mc47> Might as well opt-in :D
2021-10-05 19:22:55 +0200 <liskin> by opt-in I meant for projects
2021-10-05 19:23:02 +0200 <liskin> it was always opt-in for participants
2021-10-05 19:23:13 +0200 <liskin> it's not like you get a free t-shirt without registering, lol
2021-10-05 19:23:22 +0200 <mc47> haha yeah I got that
2021-10-05 19:23:48 +0200 <mc47> in all fairness, I think a swarm of contributions would just slow us down at this point
2021-10-05 19:24:17 +0200 <liskin> but yeah, if you guys don't intend to make a lot of PRs this month, do register as a maintainer
2021-10-05 19:24:30 +0200 <liskin> the t-shirts are nice, last long, and don't stink
2021-10-05 19:24:38 +0200 <Solid> lol
2021-10-05 19:24:51 +0200 <liskin> (which is something that can't unfortunately be said about the xkcd ones, the oldest one I have stinks after half a day)
2021-10-05 19:25:35 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> mc47: Mmh, I think it would just backlog. I'd just focus on the next release. Then bother with new stuff.
2021-10-05 19:25:36 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> Unless it's a big bugfix, of course.

2021-10-05 19:26:49 +0200 <mc47> Solid my problem is that I'll get frustrated for missing descriptions and things like that
2021-10-05 19:27:37 +0200 <Solid> mc47: at this point I just do that stuff myself for very new contributors; much faster and less friction for everyone involved :)

2021-10-05 19:28:26 +0200 <geekosaur> well, we still have that one crashing bug open
2021-10-05 19:28:34 +0200 <geekosaur> which still surprises me
2021-10-05 19:28:57 +0200 <mc47> Solid: that's the right thing to do, but sometimes people open issues with "xmonad is black" in the title with not description (exaggerating, but you get the gist of it)
2021-10-05 19:29:23 +0200 <mc47> geekosaur, that segfault? It was suprirsing for me too but I have no idea how to debug it
2021-10-05 19:29:28 +0200 <geekosaur> I'd have thought we'd have ironed out most of the X11 API issues by now
2021-10-05 19:29:30 +0200 <geekosaur> yeh
2021-10-05 19:29:38 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> I made a nice random-color function that works with gridselect and window borders/tab coloring.
2021-10-05 19:29:38 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> It's fairly complete... I'd just like to add reading from a file, as an option to set with it.
2021-10-05 19:29:38 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> Should I add it?
2021-10-05 19:29:39 +0200 <geekosaur> need a reproducer to point gdb at
2021-10-05 19:29:53 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> It has a dependency from `random-fu`, so probably xmonad-extra...
2021-10-05 19:30:25 +0200 <liskin> the crashing bug seems to be some corner case with tkabber, I don't think I'll realistically ever get to reproducing it :-/
2021-10-05 19:31:01 +0200 <Solid> jakefromstatefar: if you could reduce that to just random you'd be good to go (we already depend on that)
2021-10-05 19:32:54 +0200 <geekosaur> I thought random-fu was more or less superseded by random 1.2 anyway
2021-10-05 19:33:20 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> Not sure, when I made it I needed something from `fu` that random didn't have.
2021-10-05 19:33:24 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> I don't recall what, though.
2021-10-05 19:33:31 +0200 <Solid> probably, random 1.2 is really good
2021-10-05 19:33:34 +0200 <geekosaur> 1.2 has lots of big changes/additions

2021-10-05 22:06:46 +0200 <geekosaur> suffix / working is kinda by accident though, not something specific that RunOrRaise does
2021-10-05 22:08:51 +0200 <FOSSHuman[m]> So you are suggesting "vmware*" for an executable and "vmware/" for a file directory? Seems reasonable
2021-10-05 22:10:14 +0200 <geekosaur> yes
2021-10-05 22:10:30 +0200 <geekosaur> would require some additional code
2021-10-05 22:10:46 +0200 <jakefromstatefar> I think it it should default to `vmware*`, and `vmware/` should need to be explicitly stated.
2021-10-05 22:11:37 +0200 <geekosaur> either way, could you file an issue at https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-contrib/issues ?
2021-10-05 22:12:02 +0200 <FOSSHuman[m]> geekosaur: Yeah sure! I'll do it rn..
2021-10-05 22:12:04 +0200 <geekosaur> we can discuss what the right thing would be there, and include folks who aren't around right now
2021-10-05 22:12:15 +0200 <FOSSHuman[m]> Seems reasonable
2021-10-05 22:20:19 +0200 <geekosaur> actually one additional reason I'd like that as an issue is that it might not be our fault
2021-10-05 22:21:01 +0200 <geekosaur> shells can be configured to autoopen directories, in which case this comes down to what the shell does and we may not have much control over it
2021-10-05 22:22:49 +0200 <geekosaur> (this occurs to me because runOrRaise would not work well directly with a file manager, because of https://wiki.haskell.org/Xmonad/General_xmonad.hs_config_tips#Terminal_emulator_factories)
