12:42 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> hm there's no `delegate` for class methods, right?

13:18 <FromGitter> <ShinyKyurem555> Quick question: how can I create an encrypted database with Crystal and make it accessible on a shared LAN drive?

13:26 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> it sounds like your question is about "Crystal Reports". this channel is about Crystal the programming language (the two are not related)

15:34 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> @moe:busyloop.net I think i can support what you wanted via a new overload that does like: ⏎ ⏎ ```code paste, see link``` ⏎ ⏎ but then comes the question is this implicit conversion really wanted/desired? [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=63ac620d8f8df4262ac7728d]

15:35 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> interesting 🤔

15:35 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> hm yea, not worth it i think, i just wrote out the def explicitly for now - that's clearer

15:35 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> (was just a bit surprised that there is no class-level equivalent)

15:36 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> this snippet is from the implementation of the `GreaterThan` validator. basically just uses overloads to make the compiler happy when it does the comparison

15:36 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> sorry, im back on the validator stuff ^

15:40 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> ah, i didn't even read properly lol

15:40 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> well, i already made my own validator now with that other shard

15:41 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> https://carc.in/#/r/eaj2

15:41 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> not the prettiest, but does what i needed

15:42 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> thats the important part

15:43 <FromGitter> <moe:busyloop.net> yeh, in hindsight i could've probably used athena validator in almost the same way

15:45 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> probably yea, arent constraints for everything there tho so guess it worked out
