02:12 <FromGitter> <Dan-Do> Good blog post, can we do the same on crystal?

07:08 <FromGitter> <naqvis> > Good blog post, can we do the same on crystal? ⏎ ⏎ Yes, you can link that `nadeau.h` file and invoke `getCurrentRSS` method to get mem usage stats.

14:28 <FromGitter> <ismasan> Hi. I'm trying to get a numeric hash out of a string. I have this: ⏎ ⏎ ```Digest::MD5.hexdigest("stream1")[0...16].to_i64(16)``` ⏎ ⏎ That example works fine. However if the string is "stream3" instead I get ... [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=636e5c010513b562e8a68f61]

14:28 <FromGitter> <ismasan> The same works fine in Ruby: ⏎ ⏎ ```Digest::MD5.hexdigest('stream3')[0...16].to_i(16)``` [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=636e5c1e2cb657024021a7f8]

14:31 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> try `.to_i128`

14:31 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> the number is just too big to store in an int64

14:32 <FromGitter> <ismasan> Ha that was it. Always add more bits I guess! Thanks

21:03 <FromGitter> <oprypin:matrix.org> @ismasan: maybe it fits into UInt64 though?

21:05 <FromGitter> <oprypin:matrix.org> @ismasan : anyway perhaps you can avoid the roundtrip through a hex string? ⏎ https://crystal-lang.org/api/1.6.2/IO/ByteFormat.html#decode%28int%3AUInt64.class%2Cbytes%3ABytes%29-instance-method ⏎ ⏎ ```Digest::MD5.digest("stream1")[...8].read_bytes(UInt64, IO::ByteFormat::LittleEndian)``` [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=636eb91babfb5860bb107815]
