I don't think that's what's happening here:
"The proposal to embed Libsodium (also known as Sodium) into the PHP standard library came from Scott Arciszewski, Chief Development Officer at Paragon Initiative Enterprises, a man that has campaigned for stronger cryptography in PHP CMSes in the past."
So, they're just adding it to the standard library. Like .NET, C++, Java, and just about every other language.
Headline should read: "PHP becomes the last programming language to add modern cryptography to its core."
"If you don't fail at least 90 percent of the time, you're not aiming high enough."

Within five years there will be a headline about how PHP's encryption has had an unfixed compromising flaw since day one.
(This is like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow.)

Unfortunately for space explorers looking to wet their whistle, consuming alcoholic beverages is widely prohibited by the government agencies that send them to places like the International Space Station. Oh well, I guess I didn't want to go up there anyway

Well, they can slip past it by bringing a keyboard with them. That way, they can hang out at the space bar.

Quote: “Alcohol is not permitted onboard the International Space Station for consumption,” says Daniel G Huot, spokesperson for Nasa’s Johnson Space Center. “Use of alcohol and other volatile compounds are controlled on ISS due to impacts their compounds can have on the station’s water recovery system.” Oh, I see!

Recently at Ignite Australia, Microsoft made things somewhat more official and mentioned that they have plans for the release a second featured Windows 10 update after the Creators Update. I know, let's call it, "Windows 10 3.1". People loved that version before.
Windows 10 ME is right out.

Researchers at MIT have created a power supply for small electronic devices that “sips” energy by turning devices on with packets of energy rather than a steady stream. "One sip of this will bathe the drooping spirits in delight, beyond the bliss of dreams."

so then will it be bringing less power consumption?

European Union data protection authorities continue to have privacy-related concerns about Microsoft’s Windows 10 operating system, despite the company making some tweaks to privacy settings for users of the OS after criticism and concerns were raised last year. So, are we talking "another $700 million" worried, or more?

Along with the onboarding process and customer support, documentation is the “transfer layer” of knowledge for your customers. Shame about all those products Microsoft never created

Only Microsoft?
I could tell you several products of multinational companies that have even created standards where the documentation is way worst (if existent)

I didn't see an only there, did you?
From what I remember of Oracle docs, there wasn't much. Sun was better. IBM... Dunno. Shorter response: I agree with you, but "too bad all those big companies have never created a product" Didn't strike me as funny as picking on my friends in Redmond.

A nice sales pitch, but I can't find any documentation for the product they're selling.

Documentation is either overrated by developers and their managers or underrated by customers.
I've written plenty of documentation, spent hours on it, only to end up with some document that no one ever reads again.
My customers call me when something is unclear, way faster than reading the docs.
I look it up in the code, which is way faster and more reliable, than looking it up in the docs.
What's worse, with a constantly changing system the docs change so quick that it's almost impossible to keep up with.
Writing the initial specs is easy, but updating them is a bitch since you need to find the parts that are outdated and replace them (that potentially means deleting documentation that you've written earlier, something a lot of people won't do!).
The documentation will soon be a potential amount of your "development" time.
And no one ever reads them.
Documentation is kind of like a code comment.
When you have to write it think to yourself "how can I change this so it doesn't need documentation?"
There are some exceptions, but overall people just don't RTFM. See, there's even an abbreviation for it!
One exception I make to this is API documentation for external systems.
You'd hate to download .NET, Node.js, AngularJS, even a small library, and not find ANY documentation whatsoever.
Luckily, my systems are rarely used by others (I'm not a fan of documenting)

Also, when you're the "goto" guy for a problem, and no one else understands the system, then you're the one who will be bugged out of work hours and weekends. I've been there and worn that t-shirt. I document "everything" that I do. That way, there's no reason to bug me unless it's critical. So whilst documentation may take some time in the outset, it saves me a lot of stress and time in the long run. And keeping it up-to-date is just something I build into my estimates. If you want me to deliver some software, then that means the documentation too
