This, to me, seems premature and not necessarily constructive but I thought some people on HN may be interested in what's happening around PHP-FIG and PSRs. Hence sharing.

In reaction to PHP-FIG events, Community Driven Standards were created(github.com)

The tone is inflammatory and that graph is a joke. Changes are a function of two factors whereas advisory focuses on only one dimension. With unique insight authors claim to have, I'd expect something more comprehensive. That being sai

Click-baity, misleading title discussed previously in response to equally laughable article from Verge. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10917473 Why is something so atrocious voted up, I really don't know.

And you're totally missing the point. Drones are as precise as intel they're dispatched on. And this intel has nothing to do with thorough work, it's mostly based on signal, with no real reconnaissance whatsoever. There'

Man, you're fighting uphill battle. This is a typical case of people being scared of something they don't understand coupled with not willing to learn. Yesterday[1] I read that RFID tags emit radiation because RF means radio frequ

It's interesting to compare contributors from both LEDE[1] and OpenWRT[2] sites. Most of the folks involved in LEDE seem to be from Germany. With OpenWRT devs mostly from DE to begin with, this fork may end up as something interesting.

Node selected for fabrication does not equalize power consumption. You could go to the same node with other, inherently more power efficient architecture and gain even more oomph per watt. Power efficiency stems from the architecture itself

WTF Microsoft, seriously? I worked in Windows division for 3 years. It was one of the best experiences I've had in my professional career. Even though I worked on IO (which was never my kink), it was great environment to be a part of.

Jails are a mechanism, not the mechanism. OpenBSD has chroot for most of the same use cases. Virtualization is long overdue but it's coming. ZFS is not my kink but I get it why people want it. Having worked on CoW file system for t

Sure, he even acknowledges that by writing that in FreeBSD world back compat is more important than security. There's obviously nothing wrong with that as long as you're OK with this trade-off. He isn't, sucks for him then. :

Miod's lack of further involvement is related to him joining TrustInSoft, or is there something else happening?

Developer time is a zero sum game. If one of these optimizations bites me and I spend one day figuring out what happened, I don't spend one day doing optimization somewhere else, where a much greater speedup can be achieved. Or, to out

Most of the questions that aren't answered in manuals do get attention. Manuals exist for a reason and reading them is one of the core requirements for using OpenBSD and asking questions on various lists. Theo once said (quoting him so

This patch is a prime example of why I understand OpenBSD devs' frustration with newcomers. It takes several hours of lurking to get the general idea of what OpenBSD culture[1] is. And yet about once or twice a week there's someon

The only real problem is when 10-base prefixes are used to represent 2^10-base values (or vice versa, if that happens). Everything else is just preference, as quite clearly evident here: "even when dealing with non-technical customers&

Pretty much any set of 4 fp vectors that don't share z coord will end up non-coplanar at some point (if you insist on going barycentric for texture iteration or if you plan on using halfplanes to do intersection or whatever). That&#x27

The same claim could be made for PowerVR offering in general: why doesn't PVR go mainstream. I mean: you could get PS3 level output for probably tenth the energy so why not? Except that it is mainstream with roughly 50% mobile market s

If I were responsible for counting in such circumstances as they were, I'd bump up the figures to make myself look good. For the same reason communist gov in Poland diminished casualties caused by Soviet actions. Self reporting is rare
