Did you know that Composer is open source? One of the advantages of open source is that you have the freedom to take the code and fix issues that concern you. You can Google "open source" for more information - that might be a more productive use of your time than waiting for people who owe you nothing to make changes that you want.
Yes I'm well aware of what open source is and how it works (if you notice I'm pretty active on github); I've already sent a PR to fix part of the problem before. However, it makes very little sense for them to, for example, merge a PR if it uses my public key for verification and not theirs . The problem I'm running into is that I can't just fix the issue without their cooperation. Regardless, this is all moot becaus…

#102For those looking for a technical explanation, the PHP garbage collector in this case is probably wasting a ton of CPU cycles trying to collect thousands of objects (a LOT of objects are created to represent all the inter-package rules when solving dependencies) during the solving process. It keeps trying and trying as objects are allocated and it can not collect anything but still has to check them all every time it…

I'm hoping this is sarcasm since I don't think I've seen a single intelligent discussion in my life that was helped along by a funny GIF. Not to say there's anything wrong with funny GIF's, but I come to HN exactly because it moderates away that sort of stuff.
There is a reason why i have a extension installed in Firefox just for the ability to say when a gif is to play.

#104Wait, when did Github become the new 4chan?

I think it's great too, but I shudder to think what it might look like 5 years from now. I can only figure that there will be dead gifs everywhere
Looks like github hosts most/all of them so should be ok.

Surely you could do the work with your public key and have them swap in theirs once it's ready to go?

It was sarcasm. Sorry I forgot the tags - I'll be more careful in future.

#108The commit is great. I love that the comments have spiraled completely out of control. At this point, 30 minutes after the link was posted, the comment thread is now a competition to see who can post the best gif. I know we're serious here, but stuff like this reminds me why I love the internet so much. It's fun to cut loose once in a while.
