<FromGitter> <drosehn> [going back a few hours] linuksz -- for the specific case of one `initialize` method calling some other method to initialize some variables, there's a trick which will in *some* cases be helpful. Have that other method be another `initialize` method (one which takes different parameters) in the same class.
<FromGitter> <drosehn> I know this came up in some issue in github, and asterite agreed it was a reasonable tactic to use. But I can't seem to find the issue at the moment, and I need to head home very soon.
<FromGitter> <drosehn> so of course I find it immediately after I post that I have to give up looking for it. Check https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/issues/3334 , down around my comment on Oct 13, 2016.
<FromGitter> <drosehn> I don't know if it would work for your case, but it's an interesting tactic to keep in mind.

<FromGitter> <kustom666> Hi everyone. I'm trying to force the OpenSSL library to use tls1.1 but it keeps on using SSLv3 despite me passing the no_ssl_v3 option to the context. Am I doing anything wrong?

baweaver is now known as baweaver_away
baweaver_away is now known as baweaver
<FromGitter> <kustom666> so the flags are set but weirdly openssl insists on using sslv3 and I get the following error when connecting to a tls1.1 only server: ssl3_get_record:wrong version number
<FromGitter> <codenoid> it was fixed @bew , it's funny playing with fork, with application flow, to keep the memory not exhausted ^^

<FromGitter> <bararchy> Papierkorb_ Go fanboy
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> Go developer
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> hahua
<Papierkorb_> bararchy, Oh the good old Java "reason" against operator overloading, because this isn't possible: `public bool equals(Object other) { return false; }`
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, oh and of course the + - * / ** operators too
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> yeah
claudiuinberlin has joined #crystal-lang
<Groogy> Any feature of a language can be abused
<FromGitter> <bararchy> Oh, i'm not against at all, I like it, it gives you a much fine-grained control
<FromGitter> <bararchy> coming from Ruby, I even expected it to be like that
<Groogy> No I just mean like its dumb to remove some syntatic sugar because you worry developers will abuse it
<Papierkorb_> bararchy, I saw your implicit /s ;)
<livcd> well it's Go's philosophy :-)
<FromGitter> <bararchy> Papierkorb_ lol , truly not, I'm a long time Ruby dev, I do like that
<FromGitter> <bararchy> was just kiddin regarding the usual "it's bad" reasoning of people, as Groogy said, any feature can be abused
<FromGitter> <bararchy> (storing bytes in String for exmaple)
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> now that's a Rubyist behaviour :P
<FromGitter> <bararchy> In ruby "everything is a string", so, you dont have too much options
<Papierkorb_> "But it could be abused!" "So? Get off my lawn" – Rubys philosophy in a nutshell
<Groogy> Pff at least it ain't Lua
<Groogy> where even types are strings
<Papierkorb_> That part sucks
<Papierkorb_> And wrapping arrays and maps back and forth
<Groogy> yeh
<Papierkorb_> someone have mercy
<Papierkorb_> Their C API is superb though
<FromGitter> <bararchy> Ruby's ??
<Papierkorb_> Luas
<FromGitter> <bararchy> haaa
<FromGitter> <bararchy> makes sense hahaha
<Papierkorb_> Rubys C API is more on the "meh" end of the range
<FromGitter> <bararchy> FFI = eternal hate
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> I remember meeting Lua when I was playing World of Warcraft at 2003 :D

<FromGitter> <bararchy> XD for scripting ?
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> tried to write some WoW plugins haha
<FromGitter> <bararchy> lol cool
<livcd> Have you seen the analysis of reddit's prog. languages subreddits ? Funny like /r/Ruby is all about Rails and /r/elixir is also forming more and more about Phoenix
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> seemed pretty simple but you know :D
<FromGitter> <bararchy> auto-eat-drink-battleground
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> hahah yeah @bararchy
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @livcd I'll be sad if /r/crystal_programming turns into that
<Papierkorb_> livcd: True with /r/ruby (I think I unsubbed because of that), but with /r/elixir ... wasn't it designed for that purpose?
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, same here.
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> We had a good start though
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> I especially like some blockchain stuff
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> not sure if it's doable though
<Papierkorb_> What is?
<livcd> sdogruyol: then crystal needs to provide something more compelling than rails alternative :-)
<livcd> Papierkorb_: elixir ? to replace rails ?
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, Blockchain things? Perfectly possible.
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @livcd people needs to understand that Rails is not the only thing of doing web dev
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> I remember someone doing torrent stuff was that you @Papierkorb ?
<Papierkorb_> livcd: Not that, but to be used for web stuff
<FromGitter> <bararchy> livcd does Crystal even play there ? we have a few web frames, like Kamel, Amber , etc.. but I don't think Crystal is mainly web orianted
<FromGitter> <bararchy> or at least, wont end there
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, Correct.
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> that's super cool
<livcd> well I do not think Crystal is even there yet
<Papierkorb_> ^
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> have you seen comments from Reddit yesterday
<livcd> like in -> not that many people care about Crystal at all
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, ?
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> I don't get why people care about that much though
<Papierkorb_> > Do you really need that, though?
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> Most of them won't ever gonna need that multithreading stuff
<Papierkorb_> Yes?
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> I'm not sure about that
<Papierkorb_> Honestly, higher traffic stuff will require multi core
<Groogy> Huh I just got a mail on Github Constellation in Stockholm?
<Papierkorb_> the other way would be fork stuff
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> Look how far Node has gone without it lol
<Papierkorb_> fork sucks.
<Groogy> Anyone know what that conferance is about and if it is worth going?
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @Groogy what's that?
<livcd> sdogruyol: hype creates a momentum where a lot of people (like big companies) start using it -> hence more people -> more libs -> more of everything
<Groogy> no idea, my first impression is like buisness and entrepenour oriented
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @livcd that's true
<Papierkorb_> Yeah .. we can do better than Node. Web dev isn't the most processing demanding thing you can do
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> Yesterday, I used Yarn with Rails and it installed 999 packages just to compile CoffeeScript...
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> WTF
<Papierkorb_> > Yarn
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> And had a 100MB node_modules folder for that...
<Papierkorb_> > Yarn
<livcd> Crystal 1.0 with paralellism can be a great start to attract people
<livcd> but maybe not so much with half baked windows support
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @Papierkorb Rails 5.1 uses Yarn
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, roda+sequel <3
<Papierkorb_> Wow that's sad to hear
DTZUZO has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> yeah it's a shit show out there
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> I just want to render some JSON..
<Papierkorb_> The billionths packet manager for something from NodeJS. Innovative.
<Papierkorb_> sdogruyol, I still like how some people "broke" filesystems with NodeJS. nodejs stuff uses so many small files, that it quickly fills up the max inode count.
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> yeah
<Papierkorb_> Really a "what's wrong with the world" meoment
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> BTW, are constant always inlined or not?
<Papierkorb_> -e
<Groogy> Our external libs for our projects is +20gb big.....
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @Groogy you do game dev and have tons of assets
<Papierkorb_> Groogy: I guess it does more shit than your average node module
<livcd> my personal humble analysis is that the reality will be people flocking to whatever platform is the most popular and active no matter the "quality"
<Groogy> No no this is external LIBS
<Groogy> as in like Steamworks, etc.
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> wow, this is great
<Papierkorb_> livcd: Yes, cause who cares about it. To me, electron "desktop apps" NodeJS is the manifestation of that.
<Groogy> Boost, which we barely use stand for only 200mb of that
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> how about constants with some complex expression initializers
<livcd> Papierkorb_: honestly i understand why
claudiuinberlin has joined #crystal-lang
<oprypin> sdogruyol, i dunno, the "integers that can be computed at compile-time," part seems promising
<oprypin> but probably not more than that
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> i see thanks @oprypin
<Papierkorb_> livcd: It's just awful, and those "rockstar UX designers" don't even give a hoot about the native look&feel at all. Cause their application is so special.
<livcd> people are having fatigue from all the incremental 0.5% improvements
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> @livcd sadly, that's true
<livcd> one step forward 2 steps back :-)
<Papierkorb_> ‎[10:15] ‎<‎livcd‎>‎ people are having fatigue from all the incremental 0.5% improvements <- ?
<livcd> i say improvements
<Papierkorb_> in which regard? Of your common "web app"?
<livcd> as in here we have this great new framework or language that does this and that and it's "faster/better" but you have to learn completely new paradigm and lah lah lah
<livcd> -> react/angular/jsframeworks
<Papierkorb_> Well, the web dev community is just .. special
<FromGitter> <codenoid> hi, i dont know about the syntax : ( , https://play.crystal-lang.org/#/r/2r37
<oprypin> it actually is special
<Papierkorb_> Web dev had the worst fragmentation I've ever seen yet. Completely insane.
<oprypin> codenoid, it's "#{chicken - 4}"
<Papierkorb_> And everyone sells their latest foobar.js as the next big thing in their blog, cause everything else sucks. Completely disregarding differing use-cases.
<livcd> i have a strong feeling that any "technology" that is half baked unless it has a big community will sooner or later be abandoned (like RubyMotion eg)
<FromGitter> <codenoid> i want make even loop with `5.times.each` @oprypin , `chicken` doesnt have relation with that number : /
<FromGitter> <codenoid> *with each loop
<oprypin> you sure aren't making that clear
<livcd> but it's funny how JS is becoming the new Java
<livcd> just because of the amount of people it attracted
<oprypin> now that comparison just makes no sense
<livcd> why?
<FromGitter> <codenoid> i remove that chicken, https://play.crystal-lang.org/#/r/2r3a
<oprypin> that makes no difference. you need to express yourself clearly, and at least give the expected output
<livcd> oh you were replying to codenoid
<oprypin> livcd, nope. i mean that javascript is such a monopoly that comparing it to java is not impressive and makes no sense anyway
<livcd> ok but why ?
<oprypin> it does not need to attract people, it's the only choice
<livcd> well ok if you ignore transpilers
<FromGitter> <codenoid> i'm just hungry, https://play.crystal-lang.org/#/r/2r3d
<oprypin> nope try again
<oprypin> i mean you literally said `i * 2` yourself, then what's the problem?
<FromGitter> <codenoid> yasss https://play.crystal-lang.org/#/r/2r3e
<FromGitter> <codenoid> i'm just hungry , :# nvm

<oprypin> ‎[00:09:32] ‎<‎oprypin‎>‎ Papierkorb, I found the way that you include a table of all virtual methods in every object really inefficient. why not make the struct global?
<oprypin> ‎[00:28:42] ‎<‎oprypin‎>‎ and the default Crystal implementation calls the base C++ implementation
<oprypin> uhh Papierkorb_, ^
claudiuinberlin has joined #crystal-lang
<Papierkorb_> oprypin: One could do that on a per sub-class level.
<oprypin> indeed that's what i mean (i think)
<Papierkorb_> Except that it would require some more changes
<Papierkorb_> Mh yeah but nothing too big all things considered
<Papierkorb_> oprypin: But I'd do it the other way around than your proposal from 00:28:42. Throwing it over through crystal and back to C++ would be much less efficient
<oprypin> just 1 function call instead of a conditional check
<Papierkorb_> Lol no.
<Papierkorb_> Conversions have to be done
<oprypin> what conversions
<Papierkorb_> From C++ only data?
<oprypin> ok true
<oprypin> not sure what you're thinking about. call the crystal function and let the default implementation return a sentinel or something'
<Papierkorb_> Virtual overriding is crazy enough as it is. I don't want to add further complexity into the Crystal wrapper code for no visible gain
<oprypin> but it's a huge memory overhead for every tiny object
<FromGitter> <sdogruyol> can't you just inline the call?
<Papierkorb_> What? The structure optimization I already agreed to. But not bouncing every C++ call over to Crystal. *That* would slow things down a lot.
<oprypin> Papierkorb_, i wasnt forcing you to do that
<oprypin> but you havent specified how you're going to do one but not the other
<Papierkorb_> And even the structure optimization will be funky. Viva la inherited hook.
<Papierkorb_> Then an #initialize only has to pass on `self` to the object for context
<oprypin> yeah
<oprypin> or like i used to do it, go 4 bytes to the left and you're at the Crystal object
<oprypin> to the left of `this`
<Papierkorb_> I don't think I want to rely on that without crystal guaranteeing me some memory layout
<oprypin> nah it's nuts, i removed that code since
<oprypin> i think i understand your idea, but it seems just messy enough to not do it for now
<Papierkorb_> It's not much more messy than the whole thing already is (needs to be?). It'd actually reduce Crystal code size, and remove ton of macro code in the #initialize'rs, so it might actually speed up Crystal compilation
<Papierkorb_> Replaced with a single macro in an included hook. So depending on how the compiler does it, it'll be a speedup, or stay as is.
<oprypin> i dont like the `macro inherited` and the fact that you seem to want one c++ struct instance per subclass in crystal
<Papierkorb_> What's wrong with it? That mirrors how C++ does it internally
<Papierkorb_> Rather near the real vtable
<oprypin> well if you're willing to do it, all for the better
<Papierkorb_> The only other option is one-struct-per-object, which of course consumes memory.
<oprypin> im just wary of some kind of desynchronization if macro inherited does something weird
<oprypin> Papierkorb_, well not only, i told you the real elegant (but inefficient as you pointed out) alternative
<Papierkorb_> Hopefully the all-new integration tests would catch that
<oprypin> so u cant say "only" other option
<Papierkorb_> Trading CPU cycles for saving a few bytes of memory is *not* an option.
<Papierkorb_> The run-time overhead would be insane. It's already bad enough with strings.

<FromGitter> <crisward> Personally I tried writing simple apps with every language I could get my hands on. I wanted something enjoyable, fast and with type checking (that uses less memory than node). Crystal has those three things. I had no real previous knowledge of Ruby, but I imagine it'd help.
<FromGitter> <crisward> Weak sides are the missing bits. If you want to do 'x' and is doesn't exist, you may have to write it.
<FromGitter> <crisward> @oshnix BTW glad the article made you consider crystal 😄
<Groogy> on the "if x doesn't exist", yeah problem I have but thanks to how nice Crystal is to bind libraries with it isn't that horrible
<Groogy> of course if implementation already exists in C or something easily accessible with C ABI
<FromGitter> <crisward> I've had to submit some data types to the mysql lib. But I didn't mind that. Quite interesting to see how everything works.
<FromGitter> <oshnix> @crisward yeah, I'm looking forward to trying crystal in some of my programs after I read the article.

<FromGitter> <bew> because `+` by itself is not valid, you need `a + b`. in your case you can make it work using `itself + Vector2.new(3, 4)`

<FromGitter> <AlexanderChen1989> @bew operator is not a normal method?
<FromGitter> <AlexanderChen1989> A yield expression can be modified, using the with keyword, to specify an object to use as the default receiver of method calls within the block
<FromGitter> <AlexanderChen1989> Im learning crystal-lang, https://crystal-lang.org/docs/syntax_and_semantics/blocks_and_procs.html
<FromGitter> <AlexanderChen1989> and confused?
<FromGitter> <bew> it's not *really* a normal method, it's an operator that can be overriden by defining a method with the name `+`, from my understanding you can't call directly `+` method as in `+ 1`. You must use the form `obj1 + other` to call the `+` method of `obj1`.

<FromGitter> <ziprandom> hey crystal friends! is there a way to instanciate a Class from a Hash just like it's possible with the json-mapping's `.from_json`?
<Papierkorb> Have you tried it?
<FromGitter> <rufusroflpunch> @krypton97 it works just fine if it's base64. the binary data appears to be screwing it up somehow
<FromGitter> <rufusroflpunch> @ziprandom it might be a little strange, but if you convert the hash to json first with `.to_json` then run it through `.from_json` that will probably work
<FromGitter> <rufusroflpunch> @ziprandom I just realize I think maybe I misread your question
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> @krypton97 yeah, for sure :D was just wondering. no you didn't misread..
<FromGitter> <bew> I didn't get what you wanted to do @zip
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> these mapping macros exist for json, yaml and msgpack as far as I know. I wonder whether it can be more generalized ...
<FromGitter> <rufusroflpunch> I looked at the code for the JSON mapping once, it's pretty straightforward. you can probably just write your own macro to take a hash an map it to attributes. it's not in the std lib as far as I know
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> I have a hash (that actually is derived from a json) and was wondering whether I can instantiate a Class directly with smth. like `from_hash`. It's possible, I was just wondering whether a similar mechanism already exists for `Hash`
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> @rufusroflpunch yeah that's true ... nevermind then & thanx!

<FromGitter> <bararchy> So that before_each actually injected the vars into the `it` scope
<Papierkorb> bararchy: Just try it without :)
<FromGitter> <bararchy> Papierkorb What do you mean ?
<Papierkorb> You can have variables in the describe/context block, and you can access those from the it
<Papierkorb> They're only created once though
<FromGitter> <bew> @bararchy iirc `it` & `describe` are currently 2 methods so the scope of `it` is the same as `describe`.
<FromGitter> <bew> Yeah they won't be reset before each `it`
<FromGitter> <bararchy> Yeha, I need something that will re-initiate efore each
<FromGitter> <bararchy> So, there is Spec.before_each, but it only effect in-scope ⏎ ⏎ maybe something like ⏎ ⏎ ```params = {} of Stuff ⏎ Spec.before_each do ⏎ params[:stuff_1] = Stuff.new ⏎ end``` [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=59c1539a1081499f1f4ed64d]

<Yxhuvud> I wish we could place method defs in more places in specs, like how they can be anywhere in rspec but will be scoped to whichever describe it is defined in
<linuksz> i am new to using fibers, and i didn't fully understand these: https://crystal-lang.org/docs/guides/concurrency.html
<linuksz> i wrote the following code: https://crystal-lang.org/docs/guides/concurrency.html
<linuksz> i expect it to print the character in every second. why doesn't it work?
<Papierkorb> copy/paste fail
<linuksz> oh,
<linuksz> sorry, if first copied the paste url then the docs, then forgot the docs is on the clipboard
<Papierkorb> The second fiber, once yielded to, will run forever
<linuksz> why will it?
<Papierkorb> Fibers are cooperative, not pre-emptive
claudiuinberlin has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<linuksz> what does it mean?
<FromGitter> <bew> I know Ary wants to rework how Specs works, but I don't know what he has in mind (nobody knows ˆˆ)
<Yxhuvud> that they stop only when they want to
<linuksz> the scheduler will only switch when a fiber tell it?
<Papierkorb> A fiber has to give up its execution time for another fiber to run
<FromGitter> <asterite> @rufusroflpunch you can try passing `[contents.to_slice]`, I think with `contents.to_slice` just the first byte will be sent (not sure)
<linuksz> so it must tell the scheduler to switch fiber
<Papierkorb> Which usually happens implicitly (e.g., waiting for IO)
<linuksz> what i don't understand is that the first fiber tells the scheduler: "come back 1 second later", then the scheduler executes the second fiber. why doesn't it go back to the first 1 second later?
<Yxhuvud> linuksz: the first fiber tells the scheduler: "I won't do anything for a while. please wake me up at the earliest in one second"
<linuksz> oh
<linuksz> and what should i do if i have a long process in the second fiber, but wants to go back to the first in every 1 second?
<Papierkorb> What long process?
<linuksz> waiting for Termbox user input
<linuksz> but Termbox is C binding
<linuksz> and doesn't tell the scheduler
<Papierkorb> Then it's blocked.
<linuksz> How can i do it in a non blocking way?
<Papierkorb> integrate it with libevent
<Papierkorb> what is termbox?

<Papierkorb> Integrate it with libevent. Not an easy task.
<Papierkorb> if it comes with integration you're lucky. if it has a proper indirection layer for all things IO, it's doable. If neither, effectively impossible.
<linuksz> i am now reading about libevent
<FromGitter> <bew> Or rewrite termbox in crystal (it's on my todolist since... too long ˆˆ)

<linuksz> the libevent integration should be done in Crystal binding of Termbox's C code?
<FromGitter> <bew> @uSide no but I'd love to
<FromGitter> <bew> But probably not for the same reason, for me I usually wants to add `{% debug() %}` to a macro to look at the generated code..
<Papierkorb> macros aren't methods, it doesn't make sense to call `super`
<FromGitter> <bew> And it should be ˋ{{super}}ˋ btw

<FromGitter> <bew> `{{previous_def}}`
<linuksz> Is it possible to create an event loop in crystal for a custom event, with a timeout, or not until multithread support arrives?
<Papierkorb> "custom event"?
<Papierkorb> Something I/O?
<Papierkorb> Yeah that's a fiber.
<linuksz> Not i/o
<Papierkorb> what else then?
<linuksz> return of a function
<linuksz> so run this function, if it returns in 1 sec, then return the return value of the function, else return the default
<linuksz> then wait again for the return of the function for another 1 sec
<Papierkorb> nope, not even with multithreading
<linuksz> why not with multithreading?
<Papierkorb> Because the language can't ensure you're not shooting yourself
<Papierkorb> Killing a thread is not a sane thing to do
<linuksz> why kill?
<linuksz> wait for return in 1 sec. if doesn't return, don't kill it, but return the default value to the caller, then wait another second. if the function returns, then return its value, else the default
<linuksz> then wait again
<linuksz> the function now had 2 seconds to run, and the default value was returned by the loop 2 times
<linuksz> i try to describe it a simpler way: return the default value in every 1 sec, until the function return, then return immediately its return value

weston1 has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
<FromGitter> <bew> You can't return multiple times linuksz
<FromGitter> <bew> What would the caller look like when calling your method (which should have the described behavior)?
<linuksz> the timer wouldn't return multiple times. I described it wrong. It would send a value over a channel, or call an event handler function.
<FromGitter> <ezrast> I think he just wants a timeout on Channel receives/selects
<FromGitter> <ezrast> Do we have those?
<linuksz> i create two fibers. the first do a long job. until the job finishes, the fiber sends the default value over a channel. the second fiber receives it. when the long job started from the first fiber finishes, the fiber imediately sends its return value over the channel, and restart the job.
<crystal-gh> [crystal] asterite opened pull request #5008: Implement `Exception#inspect` (master...feature/exception-inspect) https://git.io/v5xuW
<FromGitter> <bew> Without multithreading you cannot "send sth over the channel" during fiber1 execution (unless you put some breakpoints using `Fiber.yield` in it)
<FromGitter> <ezrast> @linuksz you can roll your own timeouts like this: https://carc.in/#/r/2r9b
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> from what @bararchy said about the `before_each`hook in specs, does it even exist atm?
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> or is there something comparable? (I don't need to set variables, just some cleanup inbetween runs would be great=
<FromGitter> <ziprandom> )
<FromGitter> <rufusroflpunch> @asterite thinks, but it appears to be a bug in the sqlite crystal bindings. it's using sqlite's text binding method to bind slices, not the blob binding method. I have opened a PR for it
<FromGitter> <ezrast> But bear in mind that only works because `concurrent_method` is explicitly sleeping; if it's doing busywork without yielding to other fibers it won't work until true parallelism is implemented.

<linuksz> what does select do?
<linuksz> waiting for a signal in multiple channels?
<FromGitter> <bew> @ziprandom be aware that `Spec.before_each` will set the thing globally (for ALL specs)
<FromGitter> <bew> linuksz yes
<linuksz> i want to do it with 'concurrent_channel' doing a job, not sleeping. so in this case isn't it possible to do without parallelism?
<FromGitter> <bew> That's what I think, yes
