For the billionth time, explode(), I really don't need an array with a single empty string when I hand you a null. We've been through this. Do better. #php #firstWorldPHPProblems #tellMeMoreAboutArrayFilter

Hmmmm #php #aWholeNewWorldMaybe #nt https://externals.io/message/106453

I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS #php #php7 #coalesceThoseNulls

It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/allow-void-variance #php

Aaaaaaaand I missed the Dutch #PHP conference CFP for literally no reason at all. #fml

Got to introduce my coworker to #PHP Quirk No. 4,245 today: https://3v4l.org/WZrkj

Wooow this seems amazing (via birdsite):

tfw you want to refactor a thing and you go to write tests for it AND THERE ARE ALREADY TESTS FOR IT #php

Renamed some vars in a #PHP shell script. Went to rename the last instance, but the IDE reported it was already defined. Checked the definition and ended up deep in an un-namespaced Composer dependency.

Namespace your packages, folks.

One down, dozen or so to go. #feelsGoodMan #php #php7

Hilarity from the #PHP 7 migration: unexpected fun with json_encode() and floating point precision!

(In 7.1, json_encode() started using the serialize_precision setting instead of the precision setting for floating point output. precision default is 14; serialize_precision default is 17. 17 is apparently long enough to display how bad computers are at decimals.)

mysqli_stmt::bind_param makes me feel simultaneously magical and squicky. #php

A side project webhook has been broken for months because I upgraded the server from #PHP 7.1 to 7.2 and forgot to point the #nginx config at the new socket.

Whoops.

Spent the day messing with #Puppet class parameters to switch between #PHP 5 and PHP 7, have decided that class parameters are terrible and I should have used host parameters. #alwaysLearning

I am *so excited* about my new project at $dayjob. #php

I'm mostly a software engineer and #videogamer, with tangents to #cycling, failing to learn #Norwegian, and otherwise wasting a perfectly good B.Mus in #violin performance. I was a #moonkin (SERVER FIRST ALGALON 10), and now I'm a #Guardian.
