Wordpress' unit test suite was just too gnarly to get running with our test harness. Send us a pull request if you can get it working.

You can promise that :)

I'll re-run anything that you need to re-run if you tell me what to do.

When did you try it last? We spun up a whole team (which I'm on) who's entire goal is to make all of the world's PHP code runable on HHVM. All of the top 20 PHP frameworks work on HHVM now.

I'd happily take a pull request if you want to get it working.

Whenever we can, we build extensions in PHP https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/tree/master/hphp/system/php

Many of the older extensions that were imported back in the HPHPc days are in C since they were much easier to port from php-src if we didn't have to translate the language.

As for why this was't in PHP, two reasons. It was easier to stay in the language since our event loop code was already in C++, and most of the gains we get from writing library code in PHP comes from not having to cross a language barrier from userland code. The event loop is not the best place for that.

It depends what you are running, but you are at the right order of magnitude. Our main measurements are from running facebook.com back when it could run on both HPHPc and PHP 5.2 and then extrapolating from there with any improvements.

It is difficult to make predictions, especially about the future.

I'm glad we inspired you. I love the way you limited your Open Graph actions.

They made an FB group a developer of their app, and didn't approve the actions. Then only people in the group can see the OG actions.

Great job on the project and thanks for coming to the hackathon.

It's right:

No. It is a brand new permission that must be granted.

You will know since the dialog will be centered around "Add to Timeline" instead of "Authorize this app".

Yeah, this date widget has issues. Have you seen a better one anywhere else? You can always just fall back to the text box, but that is less good.

great point. I'll edit it to 3 more orders of magnitude.

Typing in the text box should just work. I'll try to make that more discoverable.

Or if you have another date input widget I'm all ears.

There is a few other planetary orbital periods in there if you prefer another arbitrary unit.

And other bases too incase you weren't born with 10 digits.

Your 1,000,000 seconds should be in there (unless you have past it already, in which case it is hidden behind the link at the top).

Would you prefer different copy? Maybe I just emphasized that too much putting it as the title on HN.

Let me know if you guys celebrate any other nerdy dates.

You can use Facebook lists to only post things to a set of people you want to. Or Facebook groups if you don't even want to be friends with them but want a group communication channel.

Great idea. Done.

haha, I bet netflix has more of those...

If you make me a JSON function like this I'll do it ;)

All fixed :) Now I make sure the year matches as well as the title.

Thanks for the bug reports. I'm now extracting the Year from the IMDB page and making sure the Netflix matches correctly on the year or else I throw out the row.

The main problem, is the first search result for "Toy Story" on netflix search was "Toy Story 3".

Thats a really good idea. That'll be next.

Great idea. That'll be a bit longer project, but we'll see.

I'm working on doing better matching than just title, sorry. Should be fixed by tmrw.

As for your second comment. I'm elated! Thanks. You made my day.

Sorry :( I can't edit the title now. I thought IMDb 250 was a known enough list.

Great idea. Coming right up.

Year was easier than Genre. I'll but that one on the back-burner.

Yup. I cache the API results for 7 days with a random chance of re-poll so I hopefully will notice when new releases happen.

As for the parents, yeah, sorry :( I'm doing a match on the netflix title. I'll try to suck more data out of IMDB and make sure it is the correct movie.

I'll put an expiry date column, good idea.

Wow, this submission totally blew up while I was out for dinner. Thanks so much!

You're invigorated me to put some more effort into it. I'm working on the feature requests. :) Check back soon.
