@derickr cabinet meeting 4pm, ministers told compulsory attendance because it’s important

Could be something else but speculation of GE

A UI bugbear of mine is stuff like this.

Accept the input and regex the letters away!

Same thing when phone numbers aren't accepted with hyphens, or financial numbers aren't allowed to contain commas

The next Orbstack (http://OrbStack.dev) promises some speed improvements so I did some benchmarks using Behat's test suite:

Docker Desktop (4.30.0) – 72.0s
Orbstack (1.5.1) – 35.5s
Orbstack (1.6.0 Canary 1) – 21.6s

@wyri It's pretty hard to compare without installing Asahi Linux

@wyri Baseline on MacOS is weirdly slower (more like 30s) but there may be other factors at play there

urgh. with new Fiber came new Router and yeah, all the IPs changed, I can't turn my lights on, and STILL I can't use my own DNS server.

@ciaran@social.ciaranmc.com avatar

@dantleech what stops you running your own DNS?

ciaran,
@ciaran@social.ciaranmc.com avatar

@dantleech annoying! You could put a device between the router and the rest of the network that filtered out DHCP I guess?

ciaran,
@ciaran@social.ciaranmc.com avatar

@dantleech you use IPv6?!

I just got a call about my car warranty. I pretended to be an AI bot. It was hilarious

@derickr @manchuck No, I should have [recorded it]

One huge difference between the JS and PHP ecosystems is that we keep evolving and making breakthroughs in the PHP core itself.
There is a new runtime in JS every week: node, deno, bun, and WinterJS. Why don't these improvements make their way back into the core language/runtime?

ciaran,
@ciaran@social.ciaranmc.com avatar

@rdohms it's because they're happy to transpile

eh. lost my great bluetooth mouse and accidentally purchased an ergonomic mouse with a trackball thinking it doubled as a normal mouse. it doesn't, and niether the scroll wheel or tracker ball has a "free" mode.

@shanselman it looks great. Is that really an original GBA SP (101) screen? It seems very bright but that could be your camera/lighting

Naming things is hard! What would you suggest for a name for the new PECL installer tool that is being worked on? 📢

Name a bigger lie than GPs telling you "you can book appointments online."

Go on. I'll wait.

Edit to say: this is not to bash the NHS, they're being destroyed by the Tories and the whole service is painfully overwhelmed.

It's frustrating.

ciaran,
@ciaran@social.ciaranmc.com avatar

@brunty mine switched to a triage system and it’s way better. It also means we can ask questions via text without needing an appointment which is a billion times better

08:15 UK time is a bad time for standup. Need to roll out of bed at 07:30 to have breakfast, and if I miss that I'm dong uncaffinated standup on an empty tummy which isn't good for anyone.

Framework: hey nice work! I see you're using immutable, well-modelled objects to represent your domain! But please, could you make everything nullable by default and reduce your method set to a bunch of getters and setters? this is The Way. thx.

@ciaran@social.ciaranmc.com avatar

@dantleech is this a persistence layer thing? You tend to end up with ‘data objects that confirm to the ORM/ActiveRecord and then the real objects that have behaviour, and some clunky mappings

the worst thing about learning multiple programming languages in when you forget how to write a method definition in PHP 🙃

@dantleech You never did Java, the mother of all enterprise languages? (Or C# its mirror-universe brother)
