10:16 AM Ruby Feature #21311: Namespace on read (revised): First, I would like to thank mame for the explanation in regards to the namespace discussion, or rather the pre-discussion in regards to design decision(s). Probably not everyone knew about the prior discussion(s), so it seems useful to ... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

08:27 AM Ruby Bug #21036 (Closed): Somewhat confusing behaviour between warning "block passed may be ignored", versus the responsible method triggering this warning already being faulty and can never be run successfully due to errors such as "wrong number of arguments" and/or recursive cal: Today I was updating / porting some legacy code, to ruby 3.4.1.
Ruby 3.4.1 changed a few things, including some warnings, which is
actually quite useful in the long run, in my opinion - although right
now requiring some changes, whi... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

06:45 AM Ruby Feature #20498: Negated method calls: MaxLap wrote:
> Which I hope no one writes
For instance, at:
foo&.empty?&.!
I would not write that myself because I do not use "&.". I understand that other people
use it but to me it feels at odds with other syntax of r... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)
06:32 AM Ruby Feature #20770: A *new* pipe operator proposal: Personally I do not think I would need this feature (I share mame's opinion here), but what has not yet been pointed out is the language streem by matz (https://github.com/matz/streem). Now, streem is not ruby and matz has not pushed str... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

05:40 AM Ruby Feature #20318: Pattern matching `case ... in` support for triple-dot arguments: Personally I find the double ... rather confusing. I understand the benefit of a more succint syntax - e. g. eliminating "(*args, **kwargs, &block)" - but even then I find the dual-triple-dot very strange. It seems rather "un-ruby" to me... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

10:39 PM Ruby Feature #20309: Bundled gems for Ruby 3.5: > ruby -run is one of cool feature of Ruby. Should we avoid uninstalling un gem?
I think -run is kind of neat; it's a bit like a mini-DSL for the commandline.
(Having said that, I actually do not use it myself; I instead use a cust... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

10:38 AM Ruby Feature #20300: Hash: set value and get pre-existing value in one call: Not so sure about these names. Note that get_and_set() may have people wonder why it is not set_and_get(). :D
In regards to .update_value() people could ask why the old value is returned rather than the new one.
I guess **exchange_valu... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

10:33 PM Ruby Feature #20278: syntax error, unexpected local variable or method, expecting ')' (SyntaxError) - but I think it should report that a ',' is missing, or alternatively, that suggesting ')' is the most likely cause but not always (e. g. reword it a bit): I just noticed that it actually already reported that a semicolon is missing:
"expected a newline or semicolon"
So I would like to reword the above to perhaps consider also showing this information in the raised message below:
ack... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)
10:32 PM Ruby Feature #20278 (Open): syntax error, unexpected local variable or method, expecting ')' (SyntaxError) - but I think it should report that a ',' is missing, or alternatively, that suggesting ')' is the most likely cause but not always (e. g. reword it a bit): So this is not quite a bug, but I thought it may fit better here, as it is neither a feature, and also not quite fitting under misc.
Before I will explain the issue, let me copy/paste the code I use so that others can reproduce what I... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)

05:35 AM Ruby Feature #20266: New syntax to escape embed strings in Regexp literal: I don't have any pro or con opinion on the feature itself; in regards to ^foo versus =foo, I think users may wonder about both:
^ specifically because many regexes may have it, such as /^foobar/, and with = they may assume some assignme... rubyFeedback (robert heiler)
