Nice project.

Would be cool if there was an easy way to obtain the link to the actual video and maybe show the original title, description and username.

Click on one of the green numbers to get the link.

Sounds interesting. Where has the main repo for Tachyon gone though? https://github.com/humanmade/tachyon says it has been disabled.

A copyright claim was made against us for the name. GH disabled the repo, someone's on it. Here's the wayback machine link: https://web.archive.org/web/20231130054737/https://github.co...

That’s news to me I’ll find out next week and update.

The Telecine way does not involve a cam. I think you mean Telesync.

Some more details here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecine_(copying).

telesync uses an audio channel, telecine is just video and uses an electronic photomultiplier array as a sensor to convert the light of each frame on acetate to a bitfield frame, its not a camera but done properly it can be high quality. its not a cam its more like scanning each frame of film. the thing is about 20 years ago there was a lot of cams and TKs and TSs, now that streaming is the thing its not very common to see these and you know they are very old compared to the usual transcoding and wrapping nowadays

That makes me wonder: why do you spend so many hours badmouthing PHP in multiple threads on here? Why isn't that time spent on something else?

Being on Hacker News is leisure time. If you work on making PHP suck less purely for leisure, I reserve no judgement. If you are a Laravel author, my question stands.

The answer is the same reason you build anything: there was a need for it, especially in the early 2010's for the language.

That was bad but I thought the worst part (icing) was "our package manager will be open source too so obviously we would welcome any contribution from you". Wow!

I remember when GitHub used to have private messaging. I liked that feature. It was an easy and unified way to get in touch with other coders on there and felt less intrusive than sending them e-mails out of the blue (or opening issues for the sake of communication, as some do).

There have been times I've wanted to reach out to someone about their open source repository or a question and I've always wondered why there wasn't a messaging feature. Interesting to learn it used to be there.

Same, but then I realized every commit contains the persons email, so I just email people.

It's a lot more fun with WSL 2. Something to get you started: https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2020/03/02/docker-in-wsl....

It requires you to sign up for the Windows Insider program though.

Also check this for an annoying issue and a workaround: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/4166.

WSL2 is being widely released in the next Windows feature update, though there's no hard date for it yet as far as I know...it's coming soon.

The version is called 2004 so presumably April 2020 unless there are delays due to COVID-19.

Thanks for that last link, a problem I had with WSL now makes sense to me.

So are your IntelliSense extension and the PHP Intelephense extension competing solutions? Why? Isn't there a way to join forces?

And I have to say that I've had better experiences with the latter. Also "last commit: 14.11.2018" on IntelliSense doesn't sound that great.

They are fundamentally different - my language server is implemented in PHP so it can build on existing PHP parsers and PHP devs can contribute to it. Intelephense is written in TypeScript. They are two different approaches and both can coexist.

You can bump that date (and your experience), by making a pull request which I will happily review ;)

Last time I tried the 'Getter & Setter' extension, it was quite a pain compared to PHPStorm. I had to click on each of my variables to generate a getter and setter. Wish it was just let me choose which variables I want to generate getters and setters (issers and hassers) for.

I really like to work in VS Code when I am on my home laptop (as in: not at work) but things like these more or less force me to keep a PHPStorm trial version open in the background.
