Looking at the Pointer class code, it looks like you can either create it
without arguments, or with an integer argument. The fact that you can
parameterize the Pointer class, only indicates the type of data the pointer is
pointing at.

This isn't specific to the REPL:

Nil
I can only assume that the sequence has its own scope for $/, and thus isn't

Maybe first explain why the error:
When you specify a Pair as such as an argument, it is interpreted as a *named*
argument.
$ raku -e 'sub a(|c) { dd c }; a b => 42'
\(:b(42))
So thus you can see why the error is thrown: you passed 0 positional arguments
to the subroutine, and it

Planned are:
- more optimizations based on new-disp
- the RakuAST branch will land, bringing better composability and full-blown
macros
- the next language version will be released: probably called "6.e"
Non-core developments I see:
- support for Raku Ecosystem Archive integrated into zef

[16:37:23] i'm not subscribed to the mailing list but maybe
someone who is could chime in to this thread
https://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6.users/2021/04/msg9878.html and
mention that i believe the problem is in libtommath's mp_get_double and the gmp
branch fixes it?

That is indeed severely
$ raku -e 'class samesame { hello samesame, { say "Wosup?" } }'
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling -e
Undeclared routine:
hello used at line 1. Did you mean 'shell'?
Are you missing a comma there? Did you intend to call the "hello" subroutine,
with "samesame" and the block as parameters?

Agree.
That's why I did https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/d53a927331 earlier
today.

If those are the only lines in your program, the program will have exited
before the sleep in the start has actually passed. If you change the program
to:
start { sleep 1; say "done"; exit }
say "working";
sleep;
you should also see the "done".

Using an `await` inside a react, feels like a code smell to me. An `await`
will block the `react` block from processing other messages until the `await`
returns. Which feels like it is opening up a large window of dead-locking
opportunities.
Couldn't a whenever be used there instead?

https://raku-advent.blog/2020/12/20/day-20-a-raku-in-the-wild/ looks like a
practical project to me.
Nil is really a Failure that doesn't throw. It indicates the absence of a
value where there is one expected.
That is why Nil doesn't throw. If you want to indicate a soft failure, you
should use fail().
If the chain of methods you mention are core methods, and one of them is
returning Nil,
This change of behaviour turned out to be a regression. This was fixed
reported in https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/4039 and fixed with

Ah, the days.
I do remember that in the Parrot days, any non-ASCII character in any string,
would have a significant

Making the "where" clause non-optional, is remarkably simple: removing a '?'
