- CyberDildonics 4mo agoThis title unfortunately does not give any information about what the article is about.
- lproven 4mo agoIt is about the hobby projects of Yuri Zaporozhets. Over the last few years, he has: * Taken the last public source code snapshot of QNX, version 6.4, got it building again and then ported this 32-bit kernel to 64-bit RISC-V * Built a new RISC-V based IBM-PC-like personal computer from scratch on an FPGA * Built a little-endian IBM S/360-like mainframe on the same FPGA * Built a new RISC-V RTOS inspired by QNX but FOSS, with 2 alternate kernels: his own multiprocessor microkernel, or seL4. Which is you see too much to fit into an HN title.

- Brian_K_White 4mo agoIs it not about a developer and kernels and risc-v ? ... what do you know, it is. The Register editor doesn't need that refresher course you're offering after all.
- lproven 4mo ago:-) Thank you! (And for the implicit acknowledgement that, as a mere reporter, I don't have much influence over the headlines at all, and most often the editors don't use my proposed headline, subhead, or often intro paragraph.)
- CyberDildonics 4mo agoI don't have much influence over the headlines at all So it's a bad low information title and you aren't defending it and know it's bad, or it's just fine to have a low information title? Seems like you're playing both sides here and not taking responsibility.
- lproven 4mo agoEr, what? No, neither. I am a reporter; I write the articles. The editors write the headlines. That is how most publications work: it is completely normal and plain and standard. I've been both a reporter and an editor, and in some roles, combined both. I have done paid writing for nearly 20 different publications in Britain, Europe, America, and Australia, starting in 1995. This is standard industry practice.

A person, their resume and a lot of irrelevant information.
- lproven 3mo agoNo. It is not bad. The problem here is your lack of understanding, and also your hostile confrontational attitude... and in addition, apparently, poor reading comprehension.
- lproven 4mo agoOh, hey, that's one of mine. Thanks for posting it.
