Nothing specific to the language here. Mentioned functions do exactly what their names imply. Just like ruby or python, PHP has great templating languages, support for prepared statements, etc.

This is exactly what NOT to do. The mysql_real_escape_string part is what PHP did with its "magic_quotes" feature. This feature has been removed for good reasons : - All your variables are cluttered with \' everywhere, so you

The following sentence seems really wrong: " Setting the X-Frame-Options header can make it harder for an attacker to carry out this attack (by making it impossible to put your site in an iframe). " Even with X-Frame-Options, the

Anyone did a visualization of browser window size fragmentation ? I'm wondering how the web can even work with all this fragmentation.

Apparently there is no CAS by design, this allows groupcache to replicate hot keys on multiple hosts.

What matters most when programming is all the non alpha numeric symbols. You likely type symbols such as ', ", (, and ) more often than all numbers, and more often than half the letters. If these symbols are accessible only by usi

Finally an RSS reader that does just what you would expect from an RSS reader, and that does it well. This may be the first real Google Reader alternative I've seen so far.

Node.js itself is fine. The real problem with node.js is the libraries. Just don't use them. A huge portion of existing libraries is full of hidden bugs, shortcomings, race conditions, edge cases, security issues, unscalable, or unmaintaina

The "to" TLD used to resolve to an URL shortener, producing http://to/xxx urls. Now it still resolves, however the server doesn't accepts http connections anymore.

fpm is not an apache module
226.
by fooyc 13y ago
FPM is a FastCGI server. That is, it does socket-based IPC (TCP or unix), with a binary protocol (FastCGI), with one process per request. Litespeed seems very close to that: socket based IPC, with a seemingly custom binary protocol, one pro

I bet you not only switched from nginx to apache, but also from some-language-module-loaded-in-every-apache-children to something like fastcgi. This is what actually made all the difference.

by fooyc 13y ago
Apache has much more features, more modules, supports more auth schemes, etc. And the documentation is awesome. Apache configuration is generally better, less WTF. E.g. the nginx headers module [1] allows you to either set a single header,

A vimL API for parsing code, with AST, code transformations, and un-parsing would be a huge step in that direction. This would allow plugins to all sorts of crazy stuff, with less magic, less regex, and more robustness. This would make code

At least the annotation/metadata/dql parser cache should be enabled: metadata_cache_driver: apc Else you are benchmarking the annotation and DQL parsers. Also, for big PHP frameworks you have to make sure that APC's SHM size is large enough

Amazon reserved instances cost 2 to 10 times the price of renting a private dedicated server at your random dedicated server hosting service. Compare youself: https://www.ovh.com/us/dedicated-servers/

I'm not saying it's simple nor easy. I was assuming that the number of requests referred to read requests, and I guess that the system is designed in a way that makes read requests very cheap, maybe even cheaper than reading a file on a usu

1.1 Million Requests/Second seems especially low for Amazon. The average server can serve more than 1,000 static objects / second easily.

In default, non recursive mode, it's only returning the value of zval->nNumOfElements (with a few indirections). It's not count() that's benchmarked here, its the difference between "$a < $b" and "$a < function_call($b)".

You can do that with POST too if the site doesn't have CSRF protection ;)

So, either PHP is a framework, or Django, Rails, Phonegap are programming languages ?
