22:19 < tobyink> BooK: don't know if this qualifies as a secret operator or not, but I find myself occasionally using the 0+!! prefix operator.
22:20 < tobyink> Cast to boolean, then represent the boolean as a 0 or 1.
22:20 < popl> that's not an operator, is it?
22:20 < ether> tobyink: you aren't licenced to use that unless you give it a name
22:21 < tobyink> popl: http://search.cpan.org/dist/perlsecret/lib/perlsecret.pod
22:21 < popl> not operators. :(
22:23 < popl> pkrumins had a blog post on those
22:25 < ether> yeah it's a faux-operator
22:25 < ether> but it still needs a name or tobyink isn't allowed to use it. that's a law.
22:25 < popl> doe-operator?
22:25 < popl> :D
22:25 < ether> like venus-on-popsicle-sticks, perhaps
22:25 < tobyink> I have a name; I'm just finding a suitable Google images picture to compare it to.
22:26 < ether> \o/
22:26 < popl> like the pine trees lining the winding road?
22:26 < tobyink> OK, image this rotated 180 degrees - http://mytimelesstreasures.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/key.gif
22:27 < tobyink> "The key to the truth"
22:32 < mauke> tobyink: can be shortened to 1-!
22:33 < tobyink> True - but seeing that would make me think too much.

01:06 < BooK> nice combination of secret ops, and nickname is fun too
01:06 < BooK> I'm giving a talk on secret ops next Tuesday in Amsterdam
01:08 < BooK> I'm not sure that "going bang bang on venus" is "the key to the truth"
