Hi, I'm Derick.

I work on PHP as part of the PHP Foundation.
I am the author of https://phpc.social/@Xdebug.

I like #walking, #languages, #photography, #astronomy, and #space, and will post about these topics alongside #PHP.

Tonight I'll toast to the AstraZenica . It was the first one available, and saved millions of lives. I am glad that my first shot was theirs. 💉

Learning how to do a thing.

Pretty sure it’s possible; never tried and haven’t been pulled to do so.

PHP creates sessions. Using cookies, it creates a cookie named: PHPSESSID (or similar).

I’d like to customize this; clean and simple.

Goal: I’d like to not have the PHPSESSID cookie. Not finding it.

Thinking:

  1. Disable session cookie
  2. Implement SessionHandlerInterface
  3. Set mine as the save handler
  4. Pass my session cookie in response header

Feel like I’m missing something.

@itsjoshbruce Maybe set the https://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php#ini.session.name setting to something that isn't PHPSESSID? You're... going to need a cookie regardless.

@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@bhhaskin @itsjoshbruce Yes exactly... so what would you want to do different?

Weird question: are there other languages where governments are putting money behind affordable, general-access language education as a restoration pathway like Welsh?

https://learnwelsh.cymru/

Asking for me, who loves language learning but also keeping to budgets.

derickr,
@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@jessie I've subscribed to their mailing list already too. I learned this on Duolingo before Welsh...

Sending logs from php to stdout inside a docker container you’d think would be easy and a solved problem. It’s definitely not. I’ve seen dozens of different and clever ways.

My tried and true method for the last few years has been to use the DIO extension.

After googling to see if anything changed in php to make it possible, one comment sent me down the dark path of FFI.

This little evil dirty disgustingly sly, and while proud of won’t use gist was the result. 😈

@ralphschindler Why can't you just open php://stdout and write to that?

@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@ralphschindler Ah.

It's nice to see PHP thriving again under the @thephpf. After the efforts in the past and the latest hires I think the development of the language is doing great.

What I'd love to see now, is some focus on:

  1. Marketing: Maybe starting with a modern PHP.net website to get rid of the „PHP is dead“ image and/or more tech content on social media.

  2. Sponsorship for important PHP tools and extensions like Xdebug, PHPStan, PHP CS Fixer, PHPUnit, Rector, to name a few.

@denniskoch @thephpf There are slow rumbling plans for your first point under way.

@derickr There is a user3 account associated with you that keeps spamming me even though I am not following it.
Please fix.

derickr,
@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@grmpyprogrammer That's... Odd. Only I am in the follow list. Is it perhaps a hashtag that you're following, like # php?

derickr,
@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@Crell @grmpyprogrammer yes. But only manually. And I'm the only follower. So... And 't should only be able to get into your inbox if you follow one of its hash tags.

I did have an issue with a double ID. And I might have reposted that from my phpc.social account... But I still have no idea why it would show up for you.

It was like four of them, right?

derickr,
@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@Crell @grmpyprogrammer I'll be doing some more tinkering tomorrow, so we'll see then if it is fixed. It could just be the duplicate ID issue.

This support dance of “pretend to talk to the bad AI thing that definitely can’t answer my question for 5 minutes before being allowed to talk to a human” is getting very old very quickly.

derickr,
@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@sean I only ever reply "I would like to speak to a human, please". Same with these phone "let me guess what you're saying" menus.
