Who will I see at #PHPTek next week? I’m giving a keynote on Thursday, and I’m super nervous. It’s only the second keynote I’ve ever given, and the first one was over 10 years ago. 😬😰 #PHP
Proposal for a conference talk: How to configure #PHPStorm and all its tooling extensions (xdebug, phpstan, php-cs-fixer, etc.) to use a docker container consistently.
OH: “A lot of the stuff that Python gets praised for being fast at, PHP now outperforms Python at doing, but it’s a story we’re not really telling. We should be telling that story.” #PHPTek#HallwayTrack#PHP
It’s good to see @ramsey share his personal discovery that when he was looking for a job nobody gave a shit about all the amazing OSS contributions he made. #phptek24#phptek
Use Value Objects rather than massive $options arrays when exposing an interface for configuring requests made by your SDK, because you want to make your SDK code as self-documenting as possible. - @SecondeJ#phptek
Lesson for potential and current speakers — my talk today didn’t go over as well as I wanted. The audience had different expectations and feedback was helpful. This happens to every speaker at one time or another. #phptek#phptek24
I sent a text to my coworker who is running the Vonage booth at #phptek sating: I kinda wish I was there. Looks like everyone is having fun. But this is my current state of affairs. I’m having more fun with little dude
Ever wanted to build and publish a #Composer package but don’t know how? Come to my tutorial at 2pm CDT in PHPUgly Hall, and I’ll teach you how! #PHP#PHPTek
I’m getting my presentation ready for #phptek. It’s a challenge to hit the time. I’ll do a test run and it will be 5 minutes short so I add more and then it’s 10 minutes too long.
Looks like I have a tutorial (Writing PHP Extensions) and a talk (Better Debugging with @Xdebug) accepted for php[tek] 23! (I hope they meant 2024 ;-) ).
My stance: Uninitialized variables and array keys are fine. Back-end security issues with setting them should be fixed in core, not worked around by banning them.
Please, convince me that uninitialized variables are wrong. I WANT TO BELIEVE!
Speaking of cutovers, planning on merging the PHP 8.2 upgrade PR for Joind.in's API over lunch today. That PR also includes a lot of type enforcement that wasn't there before, so I expect stuff to break. Plan is to have things fixed by the time folks want to throw #phptek feedback in for the last session of the day.
