The best part is that they are "working to fix" this issue, no body cares.

Push state without onpopstate.. genius.

It's XML based, really only uses a different schema.

I would rewrite these functions for fun, even with an understanding of them. It doesn't matter if the end result is useful or not, we're programmers, we enjoy programming, not using. Of course that's to a point; time spent making something useful that's fun to make is more rewarding to most.

I'm just making the point that it's not just about learning, it's about writing the code. If you're the type of programmer that is only looking for a means to an end, this isn't for you, but if you're like me, the fun is in figuring it out yourself without the help of libraries.

Why is this on hackernews?

Check out Phabricator, it has daemons that are very well managed and cli tools that are fully featured. Arguing that it's unusable for something large is just wrong. The way you manage memory in PHP is the same you way you manage it in any other language; you write /good/ code.

That's WHY you patent things. In this case, you could consider this trade standard, and thus not valid.
