| 00:06:30 | × | electr0n quits (~electr0n@about/security/founder/electr0n) (Remote host closed the connection) |
| 00:16:32 | → | L29Ah joins (~L29Ah@wikipedia/L29Ah) |
| 00:26:20 | <L29Ah> | How can i ask xmonad to use the library that i just built instead of the system-wide installed one? |
| 00:54:36 | <liskin> | L29Ah: that very much depends on what you mean by "i just built" exactly |
| 00:55:25 | <L29Ah> | liskin: i hit `cabal build` and it produced an executable |
| 00:59:18 | × | geekosaur quits (~geekosaur@xmonad/geekosaur) (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) |
| 00:59:20 | <liskin> | L29Ah: then I'd probably try something like cabal install --package-env=~/.xmonad (or ~/.config/xmonad) --lib |
| 00:59:54 | <liskin> | although we're getting into the "don't do it unless you know what it's going to do" territory |
| 01:02:26 | <L29Ah> | liskin: it would be extremely awkward to bisect xmonad otherwise, no? |
| 01:04:55 | <liskin> | L29Ah: bisecting xmonad with cabal is going to be somewhat awkward either way, I'm afraid :-/ |
| 01:05:22 | <liskin> | the recommended (https://xmonad.org/INSTALL.html#build-xmonad) stack setup is known to be easy to bisect |
| 01:05:35 | <liskin> | the cabal setup might need some manual cleaning between builds |
| 01:06:01 | <L29Ah> | > Installing things is as easy as typing stack install. This will install the correct version of GHC, as well as build all of the required packages (stack build) and then copy the relevant executables (xmonad, in our case) to ~/.local/bin. |
| 01:06:03 | <lambdabot> | <hint>:1:93: error: parse error on input ‘of’ |
| 01:06:03 | <L29Ah> | sounds horrific |
| 01:06:06 | <liskin> | (just a guess as I've seen it break on version changes, but I'm not a regular cabal user) |
| 01:06:49 | <liskin> | oh well, the horrible tradeoffs of making a guide easy for people yet satisfying individual preferences… |
| 01:06:56 | liskin | doesn't let stack install ghc either |
| 01:07:11 | <liskin> | anyway, it's 2am now and haskell.love is tomorrow |
| 01:07:22 | <liskin> | in a different time zone, to make things worse |
| 01:07:30 | <liskin> | so I'm going to bed now, sorry |
| 01:08:11 | <L29Ah> | 03:59:20]<liskin> L29Ah: then I'd probably try something like cabal install --package-env=~/.xmonad (or ~/.config/xmonad) --lib |
| 01:08:54 | <L29Ah> | hitting `xmonad --recompile; xmonad --restart` didn't yield segfaulting xmonad, and i have no clue how to check whether it's the right version that i'm running now |
| 01:09:09 | <L29Ah> | but seems like it didn't do anything |
| 01:09:11 | <L29Ah> | cu tomorrow |

| 04:00:48 | <iogrt> | I'm trying to add a tag automattically when a window pops up, this is what I have so far. But weirdly enough only the "hello" tag is being applied. ev_window seems to catch nothing |

| 05:29:24 | <Solid> | L29Ah: you can force stack to use the built in ghc, then it's hopefully less horrifying :) |

| 07:48:07 | <steve__> | hello |
| 07:54:20 | <steve__> | is there a channel for more general X questions? |
| 10:30:12 | <liskin> | steve__: not sure; there probably are some xorg-related channels somewhere but often generic X questions are most likely to be answered by minimalist WM nerds anyway |
| 10:30:29 | <liskin> | steve__: what I mean is feel free to ask here |
| 10:30:50 | <liskin> | mc47[m]: are you attending haskell.love like you said a week or so ago? |
| 10:31:27 | liskin | hates these online conferences because the absence of having to actually go there and mentally prepare myself for not doing anything else that… |
| 10:31:38 | <liskin> | *that day |
| 10:47:53 | <Solid> | yeah that was my feeling last year as well |
| 10:48:13 | <Solid> | so I just won't attend this year and will watch interesting talks later |
| 10:51:23 | <liskin> | I'm kind of hoping the hallway track might be better than it was at zurihac |
| 10:51:34 | <liskin> | Never used spatial.chat before |
| 10:51:57 | <liskin> | But it'll probably be the same old "extroverted old white man talking" as everywhere |
| 10:52:57 | <liskin> | I'd really love to chat with some people from the community over a beer, but the pandemic combined with my lack of social skills just kills it. |
| 10:53:39 | <liskin> | I need a wingman, that's what I need :-) |
| 10:55:15 | <Solid> | :D |

| 14:30:37 | L29Ah | injects isopropyl alcohol in liskin |
| 14:31:21 | <liskin> | L29Ah: is that meant to help? :-) |
| 14:31:29 | <L29Ah> | yes |
| 14:31:59 | <L29Ah> | liskin: anyway so do i get it right that you don't know why the cabal setup doesn't work for me as you only use stack? |
| 14:33:07 | <liskin> | L29Ah: it's more of a "I'd need to be way more hands on to be able to help you" rather than "no idea" |
| 14:35:05 | <L29Ah> | ok i'll mess with gentoo for ad-hoc bisecting |

| 14:43:59 | <L29Ah> | damn i can no longer repro it |
| 14:44:25 | <L29Ah> | maybe it was some window with some annoying property, idk |
| 14:48:50 | <liskin> | hm, I learned something today: Isopropyl alcohol, via its metabolites, is somewhat more toxic than ethanol, but considerably less toxic than ethylene glycol or methanol. Death from ingestion or absorbtion of even relatively large quantities is rare. :-) |
| 14:49:13 | <L29Ah> | it's less toxic |
| 14:49:17 | <liskin> | I actually thought it's much more dangerous than booze |
| 14:49:25 | <liskin> | dunno why |
| 14:49:30 | <L29Ah> | ethanol metabolises into a carcinogen, IPA metabolises into food |
| 14:51:46 | <liskin> | oh |
| 14:51:58 | <liskin> | so where do I get IPA-based beer |
| 14:52:17 | <liskin> | iso-propyl-alcohol india-pale-ale |
| 14:52:20 | <liskin> | that's perfect! |
| 14:55:13 | <geekosaur> | it's less toxic but it makes your stomach fairly upset |

| 17:08:02 | <L29Ah> | didn't notice that at 310mL 10% IPA |
| 17:10:40 | <geekosaur> | isopropyl? |
| 17:10:59 | <geekosaur> | I'd be surprised if someone brewed an IPA with that |
| 17:16:36 | <L29Ah> | yes, isopropyl alcohol, spectroscopic-grade |
