Who will I see at #PHPTek next week? Iโm giving a keynote on Thursday, and Iโm super nervous. Itโs only the second keynote Iโve ever given, and the first one was over 10 years ago. ๐ฌ๐ฐ #PHP
@ramsey iโll be there! Looking forward to #PHPTek Youโre gonna be great! Iโm the nervous one! itโs my first conference talk for the PhP community. Iโve done meetups and wordcamps.
So when you want to buy a Linux-first ready made laptop, you buy it from @system76 if youโre in the US, and from @tuxedocomputers if youโre in Europe.
Thanks to everyone who has asked if there will be an opportunity to purchase an "Oscar" php[tek] 2024 elePHPant. We honestly did not plan to sell the elePHPant and only ordered a very limited amount for the conference attendees next week in Chicago. (1/4)
@muz4now grey skies are wonderful. Mother Nature knows the sun can be a little full itself sometimes. It demonstrates this by burning too hot and too bright! She sends the wind to cool things down, She send the clouds to give us a reprieve from the sun. The clouds protect us, like a sentinel. This gives us a gift of softened rays of light, evenly illuminating our screens, streets,, parks, and streams.
@derickr whatโs the height requirement for a stone to be considered a โstanding stoneโ vs just a large stone sutting in a field? or are there more characteristics considered? Love the photos ๐
Iโm giving 2 talks at Tek in Chicago โ Shell Scripting for PHP Developers and Create Better Dotfiles โ later this month. Itโll be something to see! You donโt want to miss it!
@cferdinandi put it in the Health category but in the description include all three words e.g.The best podcast to get an education about the tech for people with ADHD to keep you in peak mental health
@inthehands Brilliant! the firat 2 two are amusing on their own, but theyโre really set you up for the third. i havenโt laughed that hard in a while. ๐คฃ
Being jealous of all y'all north Americans having an eclipse to watch today.
Best recommendation I can give: don't bother to try to photograph it. They'll be shit, and you'll be missing a spectacular event. Live the experience and marvel at professional's photos later.
@grmpyprogrammer@derickr@malware According to the TV show โHeroesโ, people get superhuman abilities when an eclipse happens. Hereโs hoping we get one ๐
No thought is ever complete. There will always be holes to fill!

If someone has said something which you largely agree with, especially if what they said aligns with your understanding of and goals towards an issue, then the LAST thing they need from you is someone playing devil's advocate. Nitpicking is annoying at best and, in a world where people are looking to drive wedges between allies, dangerous at worst.
Did anybody else read this and think โwait, people stiil use Eclipse?โ then get to the part that โAs Europeโs largest open source foundation, which also supports a robust open specification process, the Eclipse Foundation is a natural home for this effort.โ , and think โwhoa, seriously?!โ ๐
Hey Mastodon, what's a free hosting plan for a server-side Web app + DB you'd recommend? Should I pursue with good old #php and #mysql or is there something more modern? I have a small doodling idea for this three days week-end and maybe I should also learn a new language?
@bertrand@mwop You really should take some time to learn modern PHP. There are so many great features - even without the OOP parts. If you did learn OOP in PhP, youโd be able to use frameworks like Laravel, Laminas, and Symfony.
When you learn that a band you missed three years ago in Montreal (my flight left an hour before they hit the stage... and I learned it literally the day before) is now playing in Brussels.
@heiglandreas Last year i was excited for a band I like ( โThe Midnightโ โ theyโre from Los Angeles), came to NYC. I missed the show by ONE DAY! This was due solely to my own stupidity! I put the wrong date on my Calendar event.
So, on the bright side, at least it wasnโt your fault, and just an unfortunate circumstance ๐
@preinheimer A few years ago, someone created Conventional Commits for improving version control commit messages. They were inspired by that, which they acknowledge in the Prior Art section
@fabian There shouldnโt be a newline. The should be a single space at the end of the promplt though, so that what user types isnt up against the prompt
