Math.TWO_PI, I love it
00:01
<bakkot>
(TAU is better but less funny)

<shu>
i would be in favor of TWO_PI but would not be in favor of TAU for this reason
00:04
<bakkot>

There are people who don't know tau, but know pi. Even if you would find a bit more convenient using math.Tau instead of 2*math.Pi, I'd prefer that all Go code used pi so that every developer can instantly get it.

ok actually TWO_PI is maybe reasonable

2 * Math.PI is less typing even
00:05
<bakkot>
only in contexts where you don't need parentheses

<BrownJenkin>
* sorry. you are right. this is a very important piece of software and change needs to have a very good reason.

Math.2PI, checkmate
07:52
<Domenic>
Math["2PI"] is required, which is even funnier.

<littledan>
Can we add Math.OFFSET (defined as 1) to add or subtract to fix off-by-one errors? This need occurs frequently in industry.
12:16
<littledan>
Although it is longer to type, it supplies more semantic information

perl has a better way https://perldoc.perl.org/perlvar#$%5B

<Hemanth H.M>
Is there a way to know the contributions made by ecma members in TC39? Like number of proposals championed or authored? The current dataset doesn't provide that stat.
18:15
<Hemanth H.M>
Math.tau!
18:17
<Hemanth H.M>
looks like there was some discussion https://esdiscuss.org/topic/math-tau
19:10
<littledan>
Hemanth H.M: you can probably find this from the proposal repo. What are you trying to do?
19:55
<Hemanth H.M>
get a list of proposals that PayPal has participated since it joined ecma
20:30
<Michael Ficarra>
Hemanth H.M: somebody (I think yulia?) posted a link to a website made by a community member that allows you to break down proposals by person/stage/stars/etc
20:30
<Michael Ficarra>
I don't remember which Matrix channel it was in
20:30
<Michael Ficarra>
but if you look through the logs from around the last meeting, you should be able to find it

I believe that's this but it hasn't been updated in years

We should have this data in the proposal data repo
20:57
<yulia>
https://github.com/tc39/dataset
20:58
<yulia>
it is by name, not by member, but if you have a list of representatives it should be equivalent if you filter champions and authors
21:17
<ljharb>
how do you define participated?
22:15
<Michael Ficarra>
Chris de Almeida: ah yes, that was it
