Intel is shipping some 10nm now actually, the only question is when full production volume hits, which credible sources (and Intel...sure it may get delayed more) is 2019 thus far....
but now he's saying it's canceled. Still any credible source says Intel is already shipping some devices, but will not be at full production level until next year. Now, if Intel really is "cancelling".... they'd be out of business. They can't not have 10nn (marketing term for features that in reality are a lot bigger)
an inadequate and very flimsy firearm can be 3D printed at great expense at home on a printer costing thousands of dollars. pretty high bar there since almost all criminals that won't buy a cheap gun have the printer price even further out of reach. it is faster, cheaper and safer to make one out of metal. don't even need to rifle a barrel, just make a slug shotgun.
yes I did major in physics and worked in the field for years.
my description of this pointless project is accurate. there is zero need for a mach 1.5 rocket on wheels on this planet. there is need for advances in rocket propulsion in aerodynamic and ballistic flight, however. money should be spent on that, not this farce. good thing it's getting shut down.
I'm devops who has a few dozen drupal servers in the hundreds of servers I admin....
since PHP 5.x is supported and will have security patches, why would we bother to even test 7.x and hope the hundreds of modules we use would have something missed in the test? Answer, we won't, we'll use the modules that were written for PHP 5 with 5.
There is zero incentive to change, it's only risk with huge downside if something missed. Someday when security patches stop then it would be concern.
other languages value backwards compatibility more.
You picked the worst thing on the planet to support your position.
there are 41,500 Drupal modules out there. You think a money making company is going to risk breaking one of the many chosen out of that pile that run their sites by changing PHP major version? Not a chance in hell.
Anyway, less than 2 percent of web sites use Drupal, it's not the driving force behind PHP websites.
I did, nothing new there. no new issues are introduced with 3D printed guns and nothing the Federal Government is doing wrong now wasn't also done decades ago.
It's like a car, but without purpose or good fuel economy. Instead of having an engine with pistons in cylinders, the whole vehicle is like a piston without a cylinder being pushed from the underside.
nothing enlightening there, people could make guns before, they can still make guns. They can chose to sell or use them illegally. people can make shitty guns with 3D printing, or nice ones that cost less money without 3D printing. for added fun they can sound suppress those guns, legally (pay the tax stamp) or illegally (don't pay and/or sell the thing illegally).

it takes a buttload of energy to dehumidify in the desert. this "invention" certainly has nothing new that wasn't done in the late 19th century....
that was okay but I miss my NeXTStep with Display Postscript. This X crap Linux comes with is poor substitute.

the only source he quotes is his own website...pffft...
if he wants to be an internet journalist like a big boy he needs to up his game
Intel hasn't killed off anything. This idiot Charlie Demerjian quotes his own site to "prove"...what?
fact is Intel is delaying 10nm (a marketing term more than an actual chip feature size, doesn't mean half pitch any more) to 2019
Leon Black would buy your forum in a leveraged buyout and then nuke your account
You must mean their watching porn and jacking off.
for most slashdotters that means they could die a virgin after a very looooong sexually frustrated life.
the paid distros have their own support schedule, php 5 is a part of them

No, Tesla is not making a profit. The financials are public, look at them.
2018 Q2, $520 million loss on revenue of 4 billion.
You Musk/Tesla shills are unbelievable, denying reality.

^ posting AC because during a copy of large amount of files Dolphin ate half of them including his slashdot info
no, in general it won't work, PHP 7 breaks backwards compatibility which is why this article has no point.
Languages that break backwards compatibility cause people to stay with older versions. Get used to it, the next decade belongs to PHP 5
Musk is showing nothing because he can't make a profit.
The big automakers are developing electric cars that will be profitable and not overpriced toys for the well-to-do.
Musk also is recently starting to lose his mind, and doing absurdly stupid things.
Your boi is circling the drain.

no one gives a shit
into the spectre bucket with you too, AC
It's like a car, but without purpose or good fuel economy. Instead of having an engine with pistons in cylinders, the whole vehicle is like a piston without a cylinder being pushed from the underside.
Still, rockets on wheels are a done deal, over 500 MPH decades ago, so why bother going to 1000? It's a useless means of land transport
because that paper is wrong and put unrelated alarmist agenda at the end, and many more papers on the subject are right and not agenda pandering
even funnier that article talking about "guns into code".... a drawing of gun plans does that too.

no new issues in play.
