WTF ?! basic computations are faster in py3 than nim1.6 ?!

@shirleyquirk ... Completely amazing ... Your work is astonishing Could it be the fastest in the world ?! I'm pretty sure it is ...

Trouble with or'ed type and var return type.

The `|` operator for types doesn't "lift" the properties of the or'ed types: If A and B are mutable, `A|B` still isn't. That said, array indexing for `ptr T` is just wrong anyway, it's indexing into `ptr UncheckedArray[T]` and type systems and compilers work better when you're precise.

Nim with curly brace and tab

We used to have this feature but couldn't maintain two separate parsers for an evolving language and these days I prefer editor-based solutions. Make your editor render the code as you please, this way it's much easier to get a consistent look and feel.

sequitls documentation outdated?

`add` is in `system`, not `sequtils`.

Metaprogramming in Nim #1 Introduction

I would never insult someones writing or speaking ability in a non native language - as long as the meaning is conveyed then it's a success as far as i'm concerned, and especially in this case given that Stefan's English is far superior to what my German will ever be. That said, I do find it ir

sequitls documentation outdated?

Oh.. for some reason I thought sequtils was automatically imported.. since other functions are available without import like "add"...

Nim with curly brace and tab

A newbie, just a request and not a rant. Because Nim gave option to have case insensitive so that different people can choose their own style. Will Nim do the same for curly brace by adding curly brace too. So projects which like curly, they can use that and projects which like tab can use that.

sequitls documentation outdated?

You didnt import `std/sequtils` [it works fine](https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=3DeK)

Trouble with or'ed type and var return type.

I'm wondering why the iterator `mitems` with an or'ed type doesn't compile. The error originates from line 32 when using an `UncheckedArray`: expression has no address. If you comment out the last `mitems` and uncomment the two above, it works fine. I'm try

Hi so in the sequtils documentation the "insert" function does not work as described... here's the link to the function: trying to run the example code on nim playground does not work..

NIM IDE

I don't get your point - install count (or download count) almost never correlates with software quality, it rather shows software popularity, and kosz extension has 48k installs because it has been around for much longer. Nowadays it's not maintained while the saem extension is, so it actually

The typescript VS Code Nim plugin has 48k installs vs 3k for the saem Nim version. Are you recommending that people use the Nim version because its better, or because you hope it becomes better in the future with support?

Okay i will get in touch with you most probably tomorrow. My settings have been mostly trial and error with some research(acoustics are not the problem, my room is just naturally built well). Thank you for your time btw :).

This doesn't look right, but it depends on your hardware. 1\. Make sure you're on the latest build of OBS. The strength parameter for the RNNoise is about to be merged in ([#3299](https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/pull/3299)) and it can do harm without it. I advice moving it later in the

Basic nimterop usage for simple c++ struct?

Try this: git clone https://github.com/nim-lang/c2nim cd c2nim nim c c2nim cp c2nim somewhere_in_your_$PATH Run c2nim has no dependencies anyway, no need to bother Nimble with it.

@ynfle Yes, but I didn't write that. This is the problem. @Araq, ah okay, I'll use c2nim. Thank you for the direction. So far I'm struggling even installing c2nim. I wonder if c2nim does not work yet with `v1.6`? I'll poke at it some more. > nimble update ... › nimble insta

Basic nimterop usage for simple c++ struct?

I don't know if nimterop supports C++. c2nim does support C++.

Basic nimterop usage for simple c++ struct?

You have a field in your nim type object that is of type `rewards`. You haven't declared such a type. I'm pretty sure you can just use `importc` and let it do the rest, you don't have to declare the fields etc.

* I'm wrapping some simple c++ code * I have manual wrapping experience, but am trying to learn nimterop so I can scale to wrapping larger codebases * I'm reading the nimterop docs and API for `cimport` * nimterop seems to break for a simple struct with a vector Questions: * What's t

@Kiloneie \- keep them coming. Yes, there's something with the sound - but after 1 year of COVID-online-meetings I have been sitting through much worse sound ;). I like they way that you telling the name of procedures e.g. while typing them. As @giaco mentioned the videos are good for sharing; s

The audio quality is indeed lacking. The main issue of earlier videos was an overwhelming level of ambience, but it seems you dealt with it. However, clipping distortion is much worse! Most probably, the gain of mic preamp is set too high. In this case you need to lower it and compensate the lev
