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.

It's PHP's birthday! 29, years old today.

A cake cut out a slice off, and the big side taken.

@maswaba Yes! Without users like you (and me) back then, it would never have gotten big.

@afilina Mimas.

Mimas' gigantic crater Herschel lies near the moon's limb in this Cassini view.

Used the word "zed" in a meeting today. I'm trying to keep it alive.

Apparently it's necessary to check Facebook every 2 minutes during a movie in the cinema. I hate this generation.

@rskuipers @afilina and they don't get yelled at? Most cinemas chuck you out here.

Lukewarm take:

When I see general* "security advice" that mentions "do not use public WiFi" or "use a VPN", I am immediately suspicious about all other advice offered.

Yes, a decade ago that was a consideration, because most sites were not using HTTPS. Credentials were flying cleartext on the wire.

Today, almost all sites use HTTPS. Doesn't mean the risk is zero, but it's way lower.

*) "general" meaning "without a very specific threat model in mind", meant for general public, etc.

@rysiek @letsencrypt Party good, donations to them better.

Have successfully brought our 2015 iMac back to life, after an attempt at upgrading from Mojave to Monterey resulted in the Fusion Drive disappearing 😬

Did an internet restore, rebuilt the drive, restored the system & data from a Time Machine backup overnight, before realising that the machine was still booting from an external drive. Reset that to the internal drive & all appears well 🤞

Now all I have to deal with is the emotional trauma of seeing my wife’s inbox 🙀

@markmccaughrean I'm at 82 645, so nearly 10 times that :-D

@markmccaughrean they're read. Just still in my inbox and not organised into folders.

derickr,
@derickr@phpc.social avatar

@markmccaughrean Oh! Mine are nearly all read, and none require action.
