Why does everyone make these with PHP? Serious question. Maybe it "just works" but all of these projects feel ancient to me because of their stack despite being brand new. Sure as a user it doesn't matter but as the maintaine

Apple has owned part of ARM holdings as part of a joint venture between them and Acorn for decades now. That was one of the first pieces of the widget they had. Joke is on everyone making phones and servers: you are paying Apple already. Fr

I wish we had a modern day radio shack that sold these components off the shelf along with a detailed guide to building it and tinkering with it. It would be a great weekend project you could start on a whim.

Nice! I did one in c++ when I was first learning the language and it's interesting to see the similarities/differences in the code. Implementing a Chip 8 emulator is really a ton of fun and an excellent project to boot because it

I was so disappointed when I realized I couldn't profile on OSX without a kernel patch. I wonder if there is any path towards enabling that in the future.

Wow. Sounds like Microsoft really nailed the experience on that one. Step 1: replace everything with something else.

From his web page: "My new game is about a character name Barb B. Queue" It's enough that he's an amazing 10 year old programmer but he's also funny!

Is multithreaded rendering really the next big browser breakthrough? If so, are Google and Apple also working on similar projects?

I just started reading the source + commentary for MIT's xv6 (an modern x86 adaptation of Unix V6) and I can't wait to use Linux-Insides to take what I learn and apply it to Linux. Bravo to whoever 0xAX is, what a great resource!

Ok, but normal people are essentially screwed. - They don't read hacker news so they aren't aware of this. - They won't be able to disable auto downloading of MMS even if they did hear about it (think grandparents) - They won

Everyone always says that but I find Verizon's data network to be a joke. Drop down to 1x multiple times daily and you want to die. Also non GSM based phones/networks are a losing battle. At least AT&T and T-Mobile give you HS

Why won't Nintendo just remake Mario 64 with better graphics. The new super Mario brothers for Wii was decent but all of us who were kids in the 90s would be happy with a decent remake.

Where can I buy the laptop pictured in the announcement? It would be great if a quality PC hardware manufacturer emerged that actually made Windows 10 based laptops like this. [1] http://az648995.vo.msecnd.net/win/2015&

Cool explanation but I wonder why other operating systems don't have the same restriction. On OSX, for example, it used to be here: /private/var/vm/sleepimage I suppose they have a clever boot loader with advanced d

To me it seems as if the PPU is the most poorly explained (or difficult to understand) component of the NES. Most documentation heavily glosses over details and specifics or doesn't provide any reasoning as to why such a system was des

I really enjoy playing Alto's adventure. It's very relaxing to have headphones on during a rain storm, the sound is excellent! I think they have tweaked the mechanics a bit since launch as well. It's seems more fluid and you
