    I just read through the introductory tutorial for #Laminas, the community-based continuation of the #PHP #Zend framework.

    Sacred bovine! For the simplest task imaginable, they're using factories.

    It is as if someone in the PHP world said "We don't get enough respect, so we must copy #Java's JEE enterprisey stuff".

    @geniusmusing At one point, I was running these sites on a VPS running CentOS. In order to get a currently supported version of PHP (v.5.6 at the time), I had to find a 3rd party repo. The repo, for some reason, did not have a version of php-intl that worked, so every time there was an update, I had to use PEAR to download and compile it.

    (By the way, I don’t know if PHP has integrated that extension into the main executable yet, but if they haven’t, they should.)

    Anyway, I just visited https://www.php.net/supported-version.php and https://www.php.net/eol.php … I see that v.7.3.x is already unsupported except for security patches; v7.4 loses support in late November (security patches for another year afterward).

    Distros and projects should be moving to v.8.0.x, which is supported for another 18 months (with another year of security patches after that). I’m assuming that there are some breaking changes between the 7.x.y versions and the 8.x.y versions, so I can understand some grumbling from developers.

    However, the truth is that #PHP, like its ancestor #Perl, just evolved organically without any planning and now needs to clean up 🧽 🧹 inconsistencies and continue to tighten security. Hopefully, the pace of change will slow once those two things are accomplished.

    @dawsports @musicman The thing that I've noted is that the software in #RHEL / #CentOS is so old that people rely on sketchy third-party repos. When fresh.federati.net was around, I had to do that to get a #PHP version new enough to run GS.

    So if CentOS stream is newer, but not bleeding edge, and if it gave some warning of upcoming major changes, it might indeed be a better choice. Not for corporate apps,of course, but for hosting externally-developed projects, yes.

    Did you *start* any education or training program?

    No. I've been doing #PHP and #PowerShell courses for over a year on the employer-paid #LinkedIn / #LockedOut Learning site ( formerly #Lynda.com ), so even adding more courses on different sites isn't so much "starting" as it is moving my emphasis.

    #Cal-EDD form. For what it's worth, I just checked "No." and didn't add the rest of it.

    https://reasonml.chat/t/bucklescript-8-1-new-syntax-option/2379

    Controversial update to #BucketScript riles the #Ocaml / #ReasonML community

    I was just thinking (thanks to an #IRC discussion this morning) about breaking changes in programming languages and how often they split the community (or get rolled back, sometimes before an official release). Examples: #Perl 6 (now called #Raku) was originally a replacement for Perl 5, but became its own separate language (and I’m hearing that Perl 7 is facing rough sailing with the language’s community, too); #PHP 6, with radical changes that were scaled way down (PHP 6 was skipped, but later parts of the 5.x series and the 7.x series implemented some of the proposed changes). Then I come across this.

      Hello folks. This is the official thread for Q&A of the new BuckleScript syntax, blogged here. It’s a big change, so I’ll be around to answer questions in real time.

    Logging into the $EMPLOYER laptop to download updates, check e-mail, view some more course videos ( #LinkedIn / #LockedOut Learning courses on #PHP and #PowerShell ) ... Not sure what it is doing right now, but it is slower than a senior citizen with a walker.

    Weirdly, I’ve actually listened to two complete giganti-podcast episodes ... each one in a single session. That has never happened before.

    An episode of https://devchat.tv/ruby-rogues/ from several years ago, and an episode of https://devchat.tv/elixir-mix/

    So now, if you have suggested podcasts covering #PHP; the MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite databases; feel free to suggest them. I have no idea whether I will be able to continue this, but I’ll try for now.

    I understand why #PHP developers made it so that the language will not connect to “untrusted” sites (I even mostly agree with it). But if you’re trying to notify them of a problem, it would be nice if it got through.

    One of the things I like about this #PHP course is that he talks about some of the real-life issues that one would face in building a site ... and things like using helper functions placed in a separate file (and using require_once to import those functions into each page) and using PHP's built-in authentication functions for logging in / out.
