The ScyllaDB PHP driver is not a C++ extension anymore. As of 1.4.0 it's pure C23, the ZendCPP template layer we leaned on for the object embed and allocate pattern is deleted, and the build no longer needs a C++ compiler at all. Every hand-written .cpp file is a .c file now (71 of them), the descriptor generator emits .c , and CMake builds with c_std_23 and nothing else. That's the biggest change to how this extension is built since we forked it for PHP 8.0. This is also the release where a plan I opened back in 2023 finally landed. PR #50 laid it out: rewrite the src/Cluster directory to be more maintainable, use Zend Fast Argument Parsing, remove some memory allocations, and add .stub.php files that generate the C headers so nobody has to hand-maintain Zend arginfo by hand. 1.4.0 is that plan finished, and a lot more that grew out of it. The things you'll actually feel: persistent session connect() doesn't allocate a 200-character key string on every call anymore, and the minimum PHP is now 8.3 (8.2 is gone). Nothing in your application code changes, this is almost all under the surface. The .stub.php Build The idea from PR #50 was small. Instead of writing ZEND_BEGIN_ARG_INFO_EX blocks by hand and keeping them in sync with the actual method bodies, write the signature once in a .stub.php file and generate the C arginfo from it. In v1.4.0 that's the whole build. There are 75 .stub.php files now, and each one is just the PHP signature of the class: // src/Keyspace.stub.php interface Keyspace { public function name (): string ; public function replicationClassName (): string ; /** @return array<string, mixed> */ public function replicationOptions (): array ; public function hasDurableWrites (): bool ; /** @return Table|false */ public function table ( string $name ): Table | false ; public function aggregate ( string $name , mixed ... $types ): Aggregate | false ; } At build time CMake runs gen_stub.php (vendored from PHP 8.5's build/gen_stub.php , with two small p

NBCUniversal and Sky will be spun off into separate companies.

For the past four years, a sprawling Android-based botnet called Popa has forced millions of consumer TV boxes to relay Internet traffic linked to advertising fraud, account takeovers, and mass data-scraping efforts. This week, researchers from multiple security firms concluded that the Popa botnet is linked to NetNut, a "residential proxy" provider operated by the publicly-traded Israeli firm Alarum Technologies Ltd [NASDAQ: ALAR].

The waiver "serves the public interest by promoting a second large satellite broadband constellation."

All tests run on an 8-year-old MacBook Air. All results from shipping 7 Mac apps as a solo developer. No sponsored opinion. You plug in your Android device. A few seconds later, you unplug the cable. The connection stays alive — wirelessly, automatically, without touching a single setting. That's Seamless Link. The Problem ADB over USB is reliable. ADB over Wi-Fi is convenient. But switching between them manually is friction: Plug in USB Run adb tcpip 5555 Find the device IP Run adb connect <IP>:5555 Unplug cable Every. Single. Time. If you're working with multiple Android devices, or doing this across multiple sessions per day, it adds up fast. What Seamless Link Does The moment you plug in a USB cable, Seamless Link runs that entire flow automatically in the background: Detects the USB connection Runs adb tcpip 5555 Grabs the device IP Establishes a Wi-Fi ADB connection By the time you've sat back down, the device is already connected wirelessly. Pull the cable out — everything keeps working. No manual steps. No IP hunting. No re-running commands every session. Working with Multiple Devices This gets more useful the more devices you have. Plug in Device A → Seamless Link connects it wirelessly. Plug in Device B → same thing, simultaneously. Each device goes through the full handover flow independently, in parallel. The more devices on your desk, the more time this saves. Android 16 Compatibility Android 16 changed how wireless debugging ports are assigned — random ports instead of the fixed 5555. Seamless Link handles this automatically. You don't need to know which port the device is using. If you're on an older Android version, it works the same way it always has. Why This Matters for Daily Workflows If you're an Android developer on Mac, you probably already have a USB cable on your desk. Seamless Link just makes that cable optional after the first few seconds. It's one of those features that's hard to go back from once you've used it. The cable becomes a "char
