- Waterpik - i have 2 implants (molars) and i'm disgusted at how long I went without the waterpik. It gets stuff out that brushing & floss just can't. - Baratza Virtuoso (bought used). Our Encore was starting to be inconsisten

Just ordered a new purifier from Vornado. Our previous one was a few years old and not up to the task. Thanks for the recommendation!

Best croissants I've ever had in the States were from frozen (albeit from a local bakery, not from the grocery store).

I love our Instant Pot! I keep finding uses for it. The other day I'd forgotten to thaw a 4-pack of pre-cooked chicken sausages. Threw them into the Instant Pot (steam tray w/ a cup of water under them), 5 minutes on low pressure

I don't think it's clear how this contradicts the comment you're replying to.

Completely agree. I use Rectangle, largely for the most basic thing that MacOS gets wrong: maximizing windows. It shouldn't be the same as "full screen". I know that you can double tap a window's top bar to maximize, but

I like video games. They're fun. I also waste time watching YouTube videos, etc. But the number of hours that user put into that game is quite literally 1/4 of all the hours since Stadia launched three years ago. It's nearly

I just do a search for my full name and the impersonators will show up first in the results.

If you are a software developer, check to make sure you aren't being impersonated on Upwork as well. A couple months back someone (I think I know who, but have no proof) was posing as me, and a suspicious client noticed that the person

Sorry your experience with it sucked - but that's simply not what it's like writing PHP today in a modern framework. It is literally a joy to work with for thousands upon thousands of people (and not just the newbies).

I use them all the time, as long as they can be written legibly. $result = $someCondition ? $foo->abc() : $foo->def(); To me that's much nicer than an if statement.

Oof - I find Python very ugly to read. Give me semicolons and curly braces any day.

Read the username. It's trolling.

Why is that evidence that they are _better_ than PHP's ecosystem? That's the claim I'm skeptical of.

That's one way to look at it, but there is much better support now for writing code that behaves concurrently within a single web request.

Now this is the kind of comment I was expecting :)

Ah, thank you.

On the other hand, nested ternaries are pretty awful even when they work as expected.

You can write PHP with generics via docblocks that are understood by PhpStorm, the two leading static analyzers (PHPStan and Psalm), and soon by the Intelephpense plugin for VS Code. Since the main advantage for generics in a language like

I agree with you on portability. If that's a concern, and you're a web developer, I'd say TypeScript is a more obvious choice than Go, Ruby, etc. Re: "tools are better, more modern, with broader library support" - I

> any form of concurrency can't easily be [achieved] with PHP This was true 10 years ago. Not so today - the tools are there, and the frameworks are making it simple to deploy them. https://twitter.com/aschmelyun&#x2

Maybe you're not a PHP developer, but you probably have some kind of skill to teach others! We're looking for talk ideas on a variety of topics such as accessibility, devops, frontend, testing, programming patterns, tooling, and m

I always wonder, for folks who self-host on Droplets or EC2 - how do you handle provisioning the server to ensure that it's secure and has everything you need? I use Laravel Forge for this. I'm not a server admin and don't wa

Siteground is a decent option for cheap-ish WordPress hosting. Even GoDaddy is actually good these days.

Seems like you had a particular reaction to the branding change, but that doesn't mean their explanation for the wider public reaction is wrong.

They said "reputation", not that PHP was _actually_ dying
