Je n’ai jamais vraiment aimé le tennis. Voir deux ou quatre personnes taper sur une balle m’a toujours semblé ennuyeux et lassant. Quand j’ai vu le titre Les Derniers Jours de Roger Federer, je n’ai pas immédiatement sauté sur ce livre...

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.

Here is about IT, interconnections between technologies (Fullstack, Data Science... sometimes even AI and ethics of it). Politics, because our life is inevitably tied to it (especially with
