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
#PHPTek just opened up the ability to get virtual passes to next week’s conference, so if you can’t make it in-person, you can still watch the sessions.
You can get your virtual pass and watch the live stream of the conference at https://phptek.tv
Tickets for the in-person event are still on sale, too. I hope to see you there! https://tek.phparch.com
I’m very excited to announce I’ll be speaking at @phptek in 2024!
I’ll be leading a tutorial on building #Composer packages, and I’m giving a keynote on #OpenSource and contributing to #PHP.
Tickets are still on sale at their cheapest prices, so please get them now before they post the schedule. That's when the price goes up! https://tek.phparch.com
Have a good weekend after #phptek? Don't forget to rate the talks you attended over on https://joind.in/event/phptek-2023 , even if there isn't a prize for it! We speakers love the feedback so we know how to improve and keep bringing everyone great talks.
I’ve seen a number of folks get excited about contributing to #OpenSource since #PHPTek, and that’s amazing!
My advice: pace yourself, and start small. Give yourself a long runway, and if you don’t contribute at the level you were hoping, don’t count that as a failure, and don’t beat yourself up over it.
It’s easy to burn out quickly if your expectation is to jump head-first into open source. Every contribution, no matter how tiny you perceive it, is a success.
As @ramsey posted earlier, and something I didn't realize, you can get a virtual pass to #phptek, and follow along. As well, you will get access to all the recordings afterwards. Next talks are at 2PM CDT here https://phptek.tv#php#laravel
Are you a problem solver, innovator, or tech enthusiast with groundbreaking ideas? We want YOU to speak at php[tek] 2024! Don't miss this chance to inspire and educate. Submit your talk proposal by November 20th. https://sessionize.com/phptek-2024 ✨ #CFP#phptek-2024
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
#phptek PHP upgrades are easier with tests, ci-cd, static analysis and orchestration. Up front investment always sucks but it pays off so much. Our last PHP upgrade took less than an hour.
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.
The legendary Ben Ramsey will be leading a workshop at @phptek 2024! In this hands-on (keyboard) session, gain all the tools you need to build and publish your very own Composer package. 🎼📦 Register today! https://tek.phparch.com/#php#phptek#composer#workshop
The best way I've heard AI(llm) assistance with coding is it's moving the work to code review instead of code generation. Considering how bad most people are at code review... this will not end well.
Here are the slides for my talk "Composer Guide to Supply Chain Security" at PHP[TEK] in Chicago 2 weeks ago!
Supply chain security is such an important topic! My talk highlighted what you should know about Composer to effectively and securely use it in your dev workflows. It also showed what tools like Private @packagist can do to help.
Thank you to @phparch for putting on another great event and having us as a sponsor!
