@mattonomics I do have the luxury of knowing I can depend on 5.4+...

@mattonomics I already do that. Namespaces, closures, late static binding, traits, array literals... I do what I want!

@ryancduff yup. http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-includes/general-template.php#L1996 …

And that's only 4000 iterations because we have 30 posts per page...

You have got to be kidding me. paginate_links() runs number_format_i18n() for the WHOLE range of pages. Large site = 4000 iterations.

@markjaquith @Rarst er... devs need to design... etc.

@markjaquith @Rarst Meh. It just means apps need to design apps and sites that are actually responsive instead of fixed.

@nacin I can totally resubmit a comprehensive patch in the morning, though.

@nacin now installer is still good. They're separate patches.

@greglinch yup. Growing up we'd go and look at his works in his studio with his 2nd wife. Never appreciated those visits until to late...

@HouseofGrays srsly. At night too.

@greglinch dude, my great grandfather was one of the blue riders (Albert Bloch)!

@norcross in DC, even when you realize after 1 minute it still takes you that long to get turned around going the right way...

@nacin speaking of advanced deployment setups, could I get eyes on the composer ticket sometime this week? ;)

@zamoose @nacin that solution precludes web-based user initiated updates.

@zamoose @nacin for auto updating. In every enterprise solution I've ever seen updates are a solved problem AND [1/2]

@zamoose @nacin on shared hosting, they essentially are (as far as the user is concerned). THAT is the target.
