<nalaginrut>morning guilers~

<nalaginrut>so many dished this year

<nalaginrut>s/dished/dishes

<amz`>héllo

<amz`>I think the potluck is a great success :)

<csed>Yeah. Seems to be going great.

<Jookia>Are there plans for HTTPS proxy support in Guile?

<nalaginrut>Jookia: Artanis will consider to support HTTPS with NSS, so does proxy, but it's not soon

<Jookia>How hard is it to implement?

<nalaginrut>Jookia: for this specific part, I don't think it's too hard. The hard part is that I have to design a brand new server core for Artanis, which takes much of my hack power

<Jookia>Ah. Is there some hack that could be done in the mean while?

<nalaginrut>Jookia: you may try guile-gnutls for https

<Jookia>nalaginrut: Could this be used to implement (somewhat ok) proxy support?

<nalaginrut>it's unrelated to proxy, you asked https proxy, right?

<Jookia>Yeah- I have a HTTPS proxy that I need to go through to make a connection to a HTTPS site

<Jookia>Fantastic

<pkjcnf>in guile, (write ''a) writes "(quote a)"

<pkjcnf>is there a way to make it write "'a" instead?

<Jookia>string-append?

<davexunit>pkjcnf: no, I don't think so.

<davexunit>'a is just sugar for (quote a)

<davexunit>the writer doesn't use that sugar.

<pkjcnf>thanks. i digged through the docs, but could not find an options for that

<pkjcnf>scheme systems differ in if they write such lexical sugar

<pkjcnf>some have options to control this behaivor

<mark_weaver>pkjcnf: 'pretty-print' from (ice-9 pretty-print) prints 'a instead of (quote a)

<davexunit>ACTION wishes for real foreign struct helpers

<davexunit>the vulkan.h header file is half struct definitions

<davexunit>soooo many structs https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs/blob/1.0/src/vulkan/vulkan.h

<amz`>indeed

<amz`>what is vulkan exactly the successor or opengl?

<davexunit>amz`: more or less

<dsmith-work>Wednesday Greetings, Guilers

<paroneayea>morning!

<stis>tja dsmith-work!

<dsmith-work>stis: Hej!

<daviid>davexunit: what is their license really, I don't get it from the header

<davexunit>daviid: looks like Expat license to me

<Jookia>Fedora classifies it as the "Modern MIT" license

<daviid>it looks GPL compatible

<davexunit>daviid: yes it's an extremely common license

<davexunit>some call it the MIT license, incorrectly.

<daviid>ok

<davexunit>there are many MIT software licenses. this one is the Expat license.

<jmd>MIT has a whole department dedicated to producing licenses.

<Korhonen>Isn't the noun "licence" with a c and the verb "license" with an s?

<Korhonen>As it so often is

<jmd>Korhonen: In British English, yes.

<davexunit>no

<davexunit>well, yeah, it's a British English thing.

<davexunit>it's not an American English thing.

<Jookia>We speak American here on the English Internet

<Korhonen>Appaently it's a "Britain, Australia, Canada" thing.

<jmd>Same as advice/advise

<Korhonen>Which leads me to assume it's an "everywhere but the US" thing more or less.

<jmd>Korhonen: Commonwealth English.

<Korhonen>"In British English, Canadian English, Irish English, Australian English, and New Zealand English the noun is spelt licence and the verb is license." hmm

<jmd>Well the yanks always like to be different :)

<Korhonen>capital punishment does put you on the map.

<jmd>You're talking about punishing people who use upper case?

<stis>b

<stis>oh sorry :-(

<davexunit>ACTION reads https://www.khronos.org/spir

<davexunit>interested in something built with guile that can target this
