01:46 RacketCommitBot: [racket/master] Stepper fix for possible race condition - John Clements
01:47 scott_hickey: I think someone answered this once before but I can seem to find the answer: is there a config file where I can set (read-decimal-as-inexact #f) to be the default for the racket language whenever I run DrRacket?
01:49 mithos28: scott_hickey: there is ~/.racketrc which works for interactive mode for command line racket, I don't know about drracket as I don't use it very often
01:51 scott_hickey: I'll try it - thanks
01:53 scott_hickey: works at the command line but not for DrRacket
01:56 mithos28: I would mail the list, you get better answers there just usually a bit slower to respond
01:59 scott_hickey: will do, thanks

15:49 RacketCommitBot: [racket/master] Initial parallel versions of Shootout benchmarks. - Sam Tobin-Hochstadt
15:56 jonrafkind: samth, how do you see the parallel timings?
15:56 jonrafkind: or do you mean all racket timings are parallel?
16:01 samth: jonrafkind: what do you mean?
16:01 samth: on the shootout site?
16:01 jonrafkind: yea
16:01 samth: if you look at the quad-core version, you'll see racket is there
16:02 samth: mostly it's running the serial versions, b/c it doesn't have parallel versions
16:02 samth: the only parallel version on there now is mandelbrot, and i've submitted the binary-trees one
16:02 jonrafkind: i mean i opened the link you pasted
16:02 jonrafkind: i thought the shootout test would show either serial or parallel
16:03 jonrafkind: but it just compares tests and doesn't care if they are serial or parallel?
16:03 samth: that's running on a quad-core box
16:03 samth: so if you take advantage of 4 cores, you run faster
16:03 samth: go here: http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u64q/racket.php
16:03 samth: look for mandelbrot
16:03 samth: see that real time << cpu time
16:04 jonrafkind: ok my question is can you ask the shootout to show you both the serial versions and parallel versions of mandelbrot
16:05 jonrafkind: well at least racket is competitive with serial java.. hooray

21:53 davidmitchell: Is there a way to "smuggle" an object into a place that wouldn't normally be allowed to cross the boundary? I'm looking specifically at some of the objects in the zeromq library; asking a zeromq socket for data will cause the current thread to block, and there seems to be no way to "nicely" shut it down without having access to the parent zeromq context in another thread
21:54 davidmitchell: and when I say "thread", I mean it in the OS context, not the racket context
