Rant about PHP
You know a technology is declining when the most basic questions about its most bizarre quirks are left completely unanswered for years.
#PHP is like that. Every day I have many of these questions. I look for them. No one asked them before, no one wrote about them before.
I'm baffled by the lack of curiosity and proactivity of its community.
I know it sounds like me piling up on people I don't know anything about, but I used to invest a lot of time programming in PHP. I went to conferences, I made some open source libraries for it, like a PHP kernel for Jupyter Notebooks, I even made a library to work with dataframes, tensors and matrices in PHP (although I lost this one because my laptop was stolen before I released... and I didn't had it in me to rewrite it again).
Then, the ones who I admired the most in that space, like Nikita Popov, started leaving it to work in more intellectually vibrant communities... and it shows.
I'm sure Nikita Popov would be much more gracious than me when talking about it. I can only speculate about his motivations, but at least I can tell you about mine: It was precisely about that same lack of curiosity and creativity that I mentioned before, it felt unbearably grey and sad.

Дрезден Кодак - "Темна Наука (dresdencodak.com/2010/06/03/da)"…

A frame from CarBot's parody of Diablo 3 intro. Cain stands inside the half-ruined Tristram cathedral, dramatically raising hands and looking at the sky through the hole in the roof, at the approaching comet. "It has began," he proclaims.

Defunct railroad building.
Taken 4 August 2024.
#WindowFriday #FensterFreitag #Abandoned #Ohio

A window in the wall of a dilapidated one-story building, seen from the inside. The window is a two by four grid of panes, but all the glass appears to be missing. A small line of glass shards can still be seen clinging to the bottom of the window. Outside is a lot of green trees and brush, with a dull gray sky behind them.  There's a wood frame around the window, although for some reason the top of the frame is lower than the top of the window, so it covers part of the window. The wood is bump…
