| 2022-06-07 07:49:27 | <mesaoptimizer> | hi, I was messing around with cabal on archlinux, and now `xmonad --recompile` doesn't work. Any help? https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/AM0M7GvV/ |
| 2022-06-07 08:11:39 | → | alternateved joins (~alternate@82.180.151.243) |
| 2022-06-07 08:13:47 | <mesaoptimizer> | okay the answer was that I had to `rm -rf ~/.ghc`. Removing cabal and ghc and reinstalling them didn't do much |
| 2022-06-07 08:14:41 | <mesaoptimizer> | I'm surprised that the error does not actually tell you what the problem is |

| 2022-06-07 10:32:28 | <Yehoshua> | a bit late, but do you have more then one ghc install? |
| 2022-06-07 10:32:28 | <Yehoshua> | for example, via the distribution of you repo, and ghcup? |
| 2022-06-07 10:32:28 | <Yehoshua> | because that's what it looks like. |
| 2022-06-07 10:34:30 | <Yehoshua> | and the problem is linking against xmonad-contrib's .so file, |
| 2022-06-07 10:34:30 | <Yehoshua> | which means in some way either something is corrupted, or your compile env does not have _anymore_ xmonad-contrib installed. (but some headers are still accessible) |
| 2022-06-07 11:07:01 | <Solid[m]> | it's just Arch doing Arch things wrt dynamic linking |
| 2022-06-07 12:00:40 | <alternateved> | Hello, I was wondering if this was something wrong with my setup, but are utf8 supported in titles of windows? |
| 2022-06-07 12:01:43 | <alternateved> | I could have polish characters everywhere else, e.g. in workspaces or in xmobar plugins, but window titles are the only one where those characters are not displayed |

| 2022-06-07 12:04:17 | → | alternateved joins (~alternate@82.180.151.243) |
| 2022-06-07 12:12:36 | <geekosaur> | window titles should work fine, provided xmobar is built with utf8 and the font supports it |
| 2022-06-07 12:13:04 | <geekosaur> | I use utf8 in my terminal window titles to indicate various things and they all display fine |
| 2022-06-07 12:13:10 | <geekosaur> | but I don't use xmobar |
| 2022-06-07 12:20:41 | <alternateved> | This is the weird part: xmobar is build with xft support and xmobar plugins seems to display those characters just fine, the only issue is with window titles |
| 2022-06-07 12:22:53 | <liskin> | We've had some double encoding issues in the past |
| 2022-06-07 12:24:17 | <liskin> | Those should mostly be solved in 0.17+ but there's some possibility your config still does weird stuff with pipes |
| 2022-06-07 12:24:26 | <geekosaur> | mesaoptimizer, removing ~/.ghc removes the package registry but leaves the libraries behind. you need to also remove part of ~/.cabal |
| 2022-06-07 12:24:49 | <geekosaur> | I'd copy out ~/.cabal/config, nuke ~/.cabal, then copy the config file back |
| 2022-06-07 12:25:44 | <liskin> | alternateved: how's your Haskell job going btw? I remember chatting with you over Discord a year ago or so... You're not going to ZuriHac by any chance? |
| 2022-06-07 12:26:11 | <alternateved> | Hmm. I would need to dig around that. For sure I use the latest version. And I do not use pipes - mostly latest api |

| 2022-06-07 12:27:48 | <alternateved> | liskin, ah you were right |
| 2022-06-07 12:28:34 | <alternateved> | Those kind of jobs attract weird people |
| 2022-06-07 12:29:03 | <alternateved> | I did not feel comfortable working there, but that job enabled me to meet some other people and find another job |
| 2022-06-07 12:29:36 | <liskin> | :-D |
| 2022-06-07 12:29:39 | <alternateved> | Currently I work for company that does real things and try to help their customers, and tech stack is mostly functional |
| 2022-06-07 12:29:46 | <liskin> | Good for you then :-) |
| 2022-06-07 12:29:47 | <alternateved> | Haskell, PureScript |
| 2022-06-07 12:30:13 | <alternateved> | And the place is full of experienced developers, so I am in good hands. |
| 2022-06-07 12:31:20 | <alternateved> | I am kinda overwhelmed in this year, so I did not plan to go to ZuriHac. Fun thing; colleague from my job was asking me that today; if I would want to take part in at least the online section |
| 2022-06-07 12:33:13 | <liskin> | I attended online last year and was completely overwhelmed |
| 2022-06-07 12:34:22 | <alternateved> | Why so? |
| 2022-06-07 12:38:13 | Solid | is really excited for an actual in person event, online conferences are such a drag |
| 2022-06-07 12:41:50 | <alternateved> | Ah, yeah. Makes sense |
| 2022-06-07 12:42:00 | <geekosaur> | I don't do so well with the online stuff either. plus I miss the "hallway track" |
| 2022-06-07 12:46:23 | <alternateved> | Currently, I am a part-time performer/dancer, pretty overwhelmed with that also, so I take what I can to find some quiet time |
| 2022-06-07 12:48:01 | <Solid> | totally understandable, of course, and I've even heard of people who like online conferences! |
| 2022-06-07 12:48:15 | <Solid> | but for me they're really demotivating |
| 2022-06-07 12:49:39 | <liskin> | alternateved: the schedule was so packed I barely had time for lunch, not to mention any hacking at all |
| 2022-06-07 12:49:58 | <liskin> | By the end of it I had a queue of YouTube recordings to catch up with |
| 2022-06-07 12:50:20 | <liskin> | Haven't had a more stressful weekend... possibly ever |
| 2022-06-07 12:53:19 | <liskin> | This time I'll probably try to notify attende a single presentation. If the weather's good I'll do some hiking on Friday afternoon, and then I also have Monday evening and most of Tuesday to unwind and relax. |

| 2022-06-07 13:43:56 | <moonsheep> | I'm looking to customize my status bar (I'd like to be able to manually draw stuff). I have used xmobar for a long time now and it has served me well. I have made a prop logger that sends some JSON data to the status bar. |
| 2022-06-07 13:44:08 | <moonsheep> | How should I go about interpreting this data from xmobar? |
| 2022-06-07 13:44:40 | <moonsheep> | I have been reading its source and it seems fairly complex (a lot of TVars are used to pipe data around threads) and I'm a bit lost |
| 2022-06-07 13:44:57 | <moonsheep> | Is xmobar a good choice to do this in the first place, or should I roll my own status bar? |
| 2022-06-07 13:45:08 | <moonsheep> | I also heard of dzen2, is it any good? |
| 2022-06-07 13:45:39 | <geekosaur[m]> | Dzen2 is very minimal |
| 2022-06-07 13:46:29 | <geekosaur[m]> | I don't know of any status bar that knows what to do with JSON |
| 2022-06-07 13:46:40 | <moonsheep> | How do you mean "minimal"? Ideally I would like to be able to customize it "from the inside" (as in, interpreting the data xmonad sends me and doing stuff with it) |
| 2022-06-07 13:47:17 | <geekosaur[m]> | All it does is display text |
| 2022-06-07 13:47:22 | <alternateved> | Did you check taffybar? |
| 2022-06-07 13:47:37 | <moonsheep> | geekosaur[m]: well I'm pretty sure xmobar can display a fair bit more than just text |
| 2022-06-07 13:47:43 | <moonsheep> | alternateved: nope |
| 2022-06-07 13:47:56 | <moonsheep> | Hmm, looks interesting |
| 2022-06-07 13:49:28 | <moonsheep> | Btw, in case it isn't clear I don't intend the status bar to interpret the JSON directly. I'm merely using it to be able to send haskell records through xmonadPropLog |
| 2022-06-07 13:49:45 | <moonsheep> | (which only works with strings) |
